Deftones - Deftones

Deftones returned with their fourth studio album Deftones in 2003. The record features the singles "Minerva" and "Hexagram". The Deftones continue to push the genre's narrow boundaries with this one, it's as erotic as it is brutal, as relentless as it is gentle. Mic man Chino Moreno's patent yowl belies a range of emotion rare in the genus, while guitarist Stephen Carpenter seasons his buzz-saw assault with some industrial-strength riff textures and mixer Frank Delgado's spooky, synthetic textures further underscore Moreno's blossoming lyrical impressionism.
