My first boyfriend and I fell in love listening to them, I met my best friend through a conversation about how great they were. When I was homeless sleeping in my college library, The only possesion I had was an Ipod and even though I was starving trying to get myself through school, I wouldnt sell my Ipod because listening to the Deftones every night was the only thing that kept me sane. I truly love this band with every ounce of my heart and soul.
I started photography because of Deftones. I strive to develop photos that make you see what Deftones makes you feel. I know I will NEVER get to that level of transcendence, but it will never stop me from pouring my life into it the way Deftones does into their music. Thank you Deftones for gracing our earholes and souls with the sounds of provocative violence unlike any other.
Salb814 How in the living fuck did I not see this from seven months ago? And yes I capture photography to have a lot of faux blood and has a violent feel
I'll stick you a little Enough To take your oxygen away Set you on fire 'cause I'm on fire And I'm with you, Alone, I'm so into this whore Be afraid I might lose her so forget about me Because I'll stick you Pushed back to square Now that you've kneed her In the throat Well there you go Cause back in school We are the leaders Of all so transpose Or stop your life is what you do All you are to me is meat Now pass the flask
I can’t think of a better way to end this little Deftones week I’m having than with their 3rd album White Pony - a classic in every sense of the word. It’s the type of album that most bands could only dream of writing because there isn’t a single track on there that isn’t perfect. In the same way that people used the Beatles’ Abbey Road as a gold standard for measuring the bands of that time, White Pony is the yardstick used for contemporary artists that try and expand the Rock/Metal genre. ‘Pink Maggit’, (the original song that ‘Back to School’ is based on), to this day makes my hair stand - from the way the song starts ever so gentle, to the sudden burst of that heavy Deftones spark, and finally to the way it quietly settles down and brings the album to a close with a heartbeat. #punkflop #TrackDrops #Deftones trackdrops.com/2016/04/10/deftones-pink-maggit/
One of the best songs I heard in my entire life. It does everything...it can make my day, ruin my day, make me smile, cheer me up, make me depressed and make me cry... Deftones are THE shit! I love them forever. Chino used to be sooo cute. Too bad he got into all that substance abuse crap, but he's still a phenomenal artist.
+DeftonesLive - The archive of Deftones concerts You might hate me for saying this but I feel Back to School sounds more complete and Pink Maggit sounds like a remix (Even though it is amazing & atmospheric). Also I never understood why people are against nu metal?
Wow! Biggest "cache" of comments ever!. Thanks to you both. Just adore their off-kilter, low-level public-face. Totally suits their style! So, I got Deftones Live's favourite track (It's always been a bitch of a question in any music!) So Whippybox (Cool moniker by the way) Can You name your favourite?
Wow. Now I'm going back to the time I bought it as it was released. Get this, at a check out counter at a Walgreens in Austin Texas. I played it over and over, just driving around at nighttime. Glorious.
back in year 2009...its All saints eve. Im getting ready to meet my first real love and this song is constantly playing when Im trying to calm down myself ;) We decided to take a walk at the cementary. Maybe its odd but its a super sexy place at this time of the year. Omg what a memories pop up when I hear this..I still see her smile in the candle lights, the way she is looking at me and this song is still present in my mind to create the perfect moment :) Thanks to this song I will never forget...
I still brag to my friends that I own the original version of White Pony. Sadly, only one of them realizes how great the initial release was. I love this song. It's one of my top 5 Deftones songs.
I read Chi's mum sang your favourite songs to him during his transition... That image brings tears to my eyes, and a big smile on my face... Requiem in pace et amor, Chi...
que preciosa cancion!! .. un joya.. un tesoro! .. del mejor cd de los Deftones!! .. .. aunque amo "be quiet and drive" y otros temas.. este Cd es Unico!! .. gracias Deftones!
know what? Ive been listening to the deftones for about 12 years now and I still I discover songs like this one over and over again. Its like listening to it for the first time and feeling exactly the same passion and how their sound touches my heart and soul so perfectly. This band has always been and will always be the soundtrack of my life. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart, deftones. Hands down.
This is the type of video where you find comments from many years ago and realize how fast time has passed. It is now 2020, we live in a pandemic, dark times. But one day the magic comes back.
Any point in time it's relevant. Timeless songs from an era of music I wish could return. Deftones,tool,system of a down all the crew you know who I mean. Thx n cheers
almost every moment that i'm awake... this song is playing in my head. if you're talking to me, pink maggit is what i hear. deftones have filled my nirvana void. thank you.
Deftones, truly and cerebrally influential on our group, Neo's.Knivez. honestly, i'm not much of a new school metal listener (i'm more into those of Pentagram, Sabbath etc.) but in all seriousness, Deftones truly earned our group's respect. From their Debut Album 'Adrenaline' which featured our favorites "Bored", "Nosebleed", and "Birthmark", to their 3rd album 'White Pony' it awakens our cerebral ways. Thanks for the video. Looking forward to watch more. - neo's.knivez
May 23, 2006 - The Day This Was Posted It shocked me when I saw that it was so long ago. 19 now, I remembered when nothing on RUclips was older than about 4 years old. It blows my mind that here we are, so much later. Different people, but the same neuroticism and dare I say bliss? I’m glad we are here still. I’m glad to be here.
Deftones are pleased to announce that they will be releasing their seventh studio album (release information coming soon), Koi No Yokan as well as a Fall headline tour with Scars on Broadway.
I heard the sad news and the first thing I felt was crying. What's wrong with me. I grew up with their music that's all. They don't know me and I never met them. But still I feel so sad :( RIP Cheng, thanks for everything.
The new album comes out April 27th!!! I'm stoked! The first new album they recorded called "Eros" got shelved for the time being. But will be released shortly after this one in April. Two new Deftones ablums!! One with Chi (Eros), and one with Chi's "temporary" replacement (untitled - released April 27th)
i love that there isnt anybody arguing on the comments. that the only people commenting are genuine fans who are moved by the MUSIC, not all the hype..
dude your comment there was freaking passionate and deep and it almost brought tears to my eyes. almost. but it definitely brought a happy smile to my lips :)
This is my sister's song. :] She played it all the time while getting ready for school. I listened to this song ever since I was a little twat. xD Haha jk/ but I love this version too. :]
Absolutely. Not many are aware of how much his bass drives the songs. Like this song, it's Chi hitting those 16th notes giving this song its drive. Stephan is strumming quarter.
This is one of those songs that just makes my whole arm tingle and my head feel like it is weird atop my shoulders...like the world doesn't make since anymore, but that's alright
JPML014 makes a damn good point. I pretty much randomly bought Adrenaline by them, and have loved them since. They're remaining probably my favourite band since. This song in particular is incredible, for all the aofrementioned said and more.
Back to school was not part of the original cd. The cds name is White Pony. And yes this song is awesome. They should have never made back to school...
i workout to this song...what i do is bench only a small weight of 20 to 30 pounds and close my eyes.. listen to this song and rep rep rep. before i know it i space out and do it for the whole song.....thank you Deftones.
I just recently saw A Perfect Circle in San Diego... FUCKING AWESOME> These guys are next oine my list, and in my dreams maybe I'll see Nine Inch nails!
The thing about deftones is ,you think you've found your favorite deftones song ,then you find another one that's better
+ivan hernandez yeah man :D for me be quiet and drive will always be my favorite song! but i know the feeling man :D
+Bass boy keeps happening to me -_-
And also how having sex to their music makes it more majestic
✊
Being stoned while listening to them can be extremely satisfying as well ;)
My first boyfriend and I fell in love listening to them, I met my best friend through a conversation about how great they were. When I was homeless sleeping in my college library, The only possesion I had was an Ipod and even though I was starving trying to get myself through school, I wouldnt sell my Ipod because listening to the Deftones every night was the only thing that kept me sane. I truly love this band with every ounce of my heart and soul.
That’s an amazing story. I bet chino Moreno and the rest of the band would be so proud to know their music helped you get through those dark times.
Had the same experience of being homeless 20 years agp... The only thing i had was my old sony discman with deftones on it. It saved my life.
@@brunovieira4630 omg
shopping at jacks house
🤍 that hits, hope you’re well now, wow
will always be my favorite song by Deftones. such a haunting melody, still gives me goosebumps when i'm able to fully immerse myself in the tune.
Mine as well, i can relate to every word in the song ;--;
It's in the netflix series chambers. This song fits perfectly to what's going on in the scene
a very sad song... I can feel the emotion in every band member. Not many bands can do this so effectively

Thank you Deftones for gracing our earholes and souls with the sounds of provocative violence unlike any other.
Tanner Garcia so you capture violent photos?
when i listen to deftones i think about rain,ponds and deep pools lol kinda weird i know
Salb814 How in the living fuck did I not see this from seven months ago? And yes I capture photography to have a lot of faux blood and has a violent feel
Jeremy S I don’t think that’s weird at all my dude! It’s just amazing how they
evoke different emotions for everybody.
Do you have a social media account for all your photography?
people who listen to deftones and fully experience it are on an entirely different level than people who dont enjoy it.
depressed :D
Think that's the ptsd talking
Fuck yeah man
U gave me goosebumps lol
100%
This songs makes me feel like im under water, away from it all.
Deftones do not not know how many people they have saved through their music.
the soundtrack to my high school years. Deftones, you guys are GODS
There's just something about this band...its hard to explain...but nothing musically gives me more comfort
all i wanna do is get drunk n high and listen to deftones float here forever
deftones saved my life back in the day
honestly i cried
It doesn't get better than this.
This song will put me to sleep tonight. RIP Chi and thanks to the joy you brought me in your music.
surely this is my favorite song of deftones
Same
I'll stick you a little
Enough
To take your oxygen away
Set you on fire
'cause I'm on fire
And I'm with you,
Alone,
I'm so into this whore
Be afraid
I might lose her so forget about me
Because I'll stick you
Pushed back to square
Now that you've kneed her
In the throat
Well there you go
Cause back in school
We are the leaders
Of all so transpose
Or stop your life is what you do
All you are to me is meat
Now pass the flask
Still to this day and until the day I die.. Deftones will be my favorite band of all time..
Absolute QUALITY.
From the day I discovered Deftones for myself and onwards, i've experienced music in a way that's pretty much changed me.

Best drop in of the era
One of the best songs I heard in my entire life.
It does everything...it can make my day, ruin my day, make me smile, cheer me up, make me depressed and make me cry... Deftones are THE shit! I love them forever. Chino used to be sooo cute. Too bad he got into all that substance abuse crap, but he's still a phenomenal artist.
This is far superior...
Love Back To School version, Vid's amazing!!
This is so much more. Just Sublime... No interference.

Lol I actually like, Back to School". What is wrong with it?

I don't quite understand your comment. Can you elaborate? Lol I'm sorry.
Just wondered what your favourite Deftones track is.
Today is white pony's 17th anniversary :D
Wow. Now I'm going back to the time I bought it as it was released. Get this, at a check out counter at a Walgreens in Austin Texas. I played it over and over, just driving around at nighttime. Glorious.

Anyone that can hold a scream for 36 seonds has my respect! Great emotion to this song! One of their best!
This song on every instrument has every emotion at this time RIP
Man that quick trumpet at 5:43 is magic, I tell you.
May 23, 2006 - The Day This Was Posted
It shocked me when I saw that it was so long ago. 19 now, I remembered when nothing on RUclips was older than about 4 years old. It blows my mind that here we are, so much later. Different people, but the same neuroticism and dare I say bliss? I’m glad we are here still. I’m glad to be here.
They're so good I still get the same feelings when I hear them. Chills every time. Their the only band that can do that for me.
For Every moment , there's a pivital point, a deffining moment in my life that this song always brings me back too.
This made me fell in love with them back in 2000. This song really grabbed me.
They created the thumbs up button for THIS SONG! Deftones for life.
this has to be one of there best!!!it from the back to school(mini maggit) cd...awesome.
Metal-gaze
It's more like punk shoegaze
Deftones have more maturity and talent than Linkin Park could ever hope to muster together.
Deftones are pleased to announce that they will be releasing their seventh studio album (release information coming soon), Koi No Yokan as well as a Fall headline tour with Scars on Broadway.
Nah, Chino wrote it to show how easy it is to make a hit single because the record company said there weren't any singles on White Pony.
I heard the sad news and the first thing I felt was crying. What's wrong with me.
I grew up with their music that's all. They don't know me and I never met them.
But still I feel so sad :(
RIP Cheng, thanks for everything.
My favorite song and album. Deftones for life!
The new album comes out April 27th!!! I'm stoked! The first new album they recorded called "Eros" got shelved for the time being. But will be released shortly after this one in April. Two new Deftones ablums!! One with Chi (Eros), and one with Chi's "temporary" replacement (untitled - released April 27th)
Cheng we miss you a lot brother. Deftones without you is modded a lot.
This song gives me goosebumps all over, every time I listen to it.
Holy fuck. This is my account from 9 years ago. Still listening in 2019.
I miss seeing Chi
I hope he’s chillin in heaven
🙏👊☝️❤️
I was really stressed today and this song just takes me away from all of it.

Absolutely. Not many are aware of how much his bass drives the songs. Like this song, it's Chi hitting those 16th notes giving this song its drive. Stephan is strumming quarter.
This song puts me in my feels, is that odd?
What does that mean?
Its about time yall caught up to the Northern California MASTER GROUP that is DEFTONES !

if you skip that first 2 minutes, then you don't really get the song. It's not an intro, it's the part of the song.

Thanks Chi, R.I.P.

JPML014 makes a damn good point.
I pretty much randomly bought Adrenaline by them, and have loved them since. They're remaining probably my favourite band since.
This song in particular is incredible, for all the aofrementioned said and more.
esta super chingona esta rola buena rola deftones
Back to school was not part of the original cd. The cds name is White Pony. And yes this song is awesome. They should have never made back to school...
i love death metal.. i love grindcore.. i love hardcore.. but.. deftones rules !!!

best part is 2:26 till the end. one of my fav songs from deftones
Got chills. :)
para futuras generaciones...
i workout to this song...what i do is bench only a small weight of 20 to 30 pounds and close my eyes.. listen to this song and rep rep rep.

I believe White Pony will be the next album I listen to while wasted.
I just recently saw A Perfect Circle in San Diego... FUCKING AWESOME> These guys are next oine my list, and in my dreams maybe I'll see Nine Inch nails!
Amen DirtyGirl, took the words outta my mouth.
