Goatwhore rules Deft ones rule ghost sucks But I don't have a problem with their stage antics.. I think it's funny and not slipknot related.. There music just isn't good..
I dont get it. I've listened to a ton of Deftones and all I hear is shitty nu metal riffing. Sure Chino has a good voice, but its piled on top of terrible music. I can understand if people like them for nostalgiac reasons but I just dont see whats so special :-/
This is from about 2 minutes of searching. Funny enough these are all from Deftones latest album. Exhibit A: main riff. Generic, downtuned Korn-esque riff
nowadays... eh... its more of an evolved nu metal transformed into hard rock. they still have remnants of earlier work, but its come a hell of a long way.
I always considered Tool and Helmet and Rage Against the Machine and Faith No More and bands like that to be more peers to the Deftones. I don't really think of them as any sort of metal band

Ghost is just plain boring
Then I'd say Deftones. Even though I'm not really into them, I don't hate them either.
Korea was probably the most nu metal song on white pony but honestly that's one of my favorites lol
