The Deftones are a quartet that formed in 1989 and was [responsible] just as much as korn was for the so called "nu-metal" movement. The Deftones came into being when drummer Abe Cunningham suffered from a car accident that he sewed the driver for and won. Once the money was in place, the band bought very expensive musical equipment and released a demo titled "Like Linus". Although the Deftones were unknown to the mainstream and were not an overnight success, the band had created a sound of their own. Their first full length album "[Adrenaline]" exploded onto the scene with such anthems as, "Bored", "7 Words", and "Engine # 9". The band got exposure with their sucessful debut. Around the time of the release of Adrenaline, Korn was also a big new band. The two toured together in their early days and were both catergorized as nu metal. The Deftones next album was entitled Around the Fur, which was more accesible to the mainstream, had the MTV favorites, "My Own Summer" and "Be Quiet And Drive". Shortly after the release of Around the Fur, the quartet added Dj Frank Delgado. At this time, The Deftones were the band to listen to...if not be influenced by. The Deftones alone have set the bar high for most new bands. The Deftones have an [influence] on Linkin PArk, Limp Bizkit, [System Of A Down], POD, Papa Roach, and just about any other band you can think of that is a form of rap metal. The Deftones solidified their [influential] status with their long awaited album [WHite Pony]. Pretty much every song on [White Pony] is a one of a kind, and has many things that countless singles today simply do not have. Although fans were convinced that the deftones would tone down on the heaviness (since [white pony] was the slowest album yet), the deftones 4th ablum, "Deftones" is one of the heavier ablums to come out since the new mellinium. Still today the Deftones are one of the better bands that dont seem to repeat themselves or get old. Although Korn had a bigger sucess, deftones were around long before korn and were influencing heavy weight rap metalers long before.
