We collected questions from the Dunlop online community for Deftones' Chino & Steph, who sat down and answered them on camera during a recent visit to Dunlop HQ.
Is just beautiful to see Chino trying to keep himself serious but then crack a smile at Stephen's humourous sincereness. You must love havin' Step around, what a great guy he is 😙.
These interviews are like work for them so they have to put on their “work face” but in their heads you know they’re thinking “this is bullshit we should be doing something else”. It’s all love at the end of the day. Ohms is a grower but I’m on board and it’s great.
that last question right there explains a big part of why gore didn't work: stephen and chino have to have different yet complimentary guitar tones, they can't have the same tone. stephen played orange amps on gore because of a storage locker flooding and he needed some new shit in time for the album or something. orange amps CANNOT handle super metal playing: chino can play it because his playing is less overly metal than stephen, which is totally cool and unique. you have to turn the volume and gain up way more than most amps to get it sounding adequately "metal", but as a result, no noise gate can really clean up the sound to where it needs to be with clarity and a lack of bullshit noise. they're also a lot more guilty than other amps of eating up the frequencies that drums and bass guitar need to sit at if your guitar goes low like stephen's 8 strings do. abe said gore was supposed to come out 6 months sooner than it actually did, but the initial mix and master didn't work. he won't say it, but thats probably why. and listen to how shitty the mix and master of gore ended up being anyway. chino can play orange as long as stephen doesn't play orange. ohms is a fucking AWESOME cd, they really got back on track with that one.
You must be really lousy at your job. Steph's eyes say it all. If you know anything about Stephen, he's high for every interview. If you know anything about ganja, you act less high the more it becomes apart of your life. Stephen could probably smoke the majority of rock bands under the table.
