    Around The Fur>White Pony>Adrenaline> ST>Diamond Eyes>Koi> Saturday Night Wrist>Gore
     
    Keep in mind that my real interest in the band was up to and including ST with probably about 15 live shows between 97 and 03ish. Musical tastes changed over time but I can still get into ATF and White Pony without issue . Diamond Eyes is a strong highlight of their catalog but past my extreme fan stages of band. Easily the best album of the later era of their career

    This is how I feel about s/t. Can we stop letting the strength of White Pony negatively influence the rating of this album? If any one of their later albums had directly followed White Pony it would have suffered the same lackluster response. 
     
    I'm in the same boat – I've never disliked any of their albums but the first 4 are the strongest. And as suggested by a few, age certainly does have a lot to do with it (as it could for many long-running bands). I started listening when Around the Fur came out and it remains my favorite. I think the evolution of my taste in music has also had an impact on my enjoyment of all subsequent albums. But I feel the drop-off came after s/t – I like Saturday Night Wrist, Diamond Eyes, and Koi no yokan pretty equally, but was definitely less impressed by Gore. Or again, it could be that I haven't been the target audience for a while.
     
    Since andrewlucas asked, here are my rankings:
    Around the Fur > White Pony > Adrenaline > Deftones > Koi no yokan > Diamond Eyes > Saturday Night Wrist > Gore

    I was just wondering the same thing as well. I remember hearing 7 words on the local independent station near me and it blew me away. Ran out and bought the tape as soon as i could. Saw them a few times around 96-98 and they were absolutely fantastic live as well. So those first couple albums are really still my favorites. Probably followed by Diamond Eyes. But i could see someone who didn't hear Adrenaline until a bit later not liking it much compared to the later albums.

    I'm with you on this one. Maybe just because of the nostalgia, but my favorites are ATF and Adrenaline. I appreciate all of their music in some way or another, but when I think of Deftones I think of the ATF album first.

    I almost wonder if some of those opinions is based of the person's age. As someone who saw them play in support of Adrenaline because I am old.. I can't imagine placing Gore in front.

    I need to revisit Gore but for me S/T is freaking great. It’s got some absolute jams on it.

    Just a heads up, uDiscover is having a sale and if you use COMEBACK you can get an extra 25% off. I had a separate 30% off code and grabbed all 4 of the reissued LPs for $60 shipped.

    Exactly. It was exposing a wider, definitely younger and unaware audience to 120 Minutes types bands. I totally didn’t start paying more attention to that side of the underground before seeing that stuff on B&B. It was just post-Nirvana Radio alt rock(which is how I became a Hum fan. Stars was in heavy rotation at our local station) and post-Green Day punk, in my world. Seaweed, Archers Of Loaf, Hum, Sausage, Built To Spill, Pizzicatto Five, Ween, Helium. Then you have the other end with metal bands I had never heard before, blowing my young mind(Death, Cannibal, Mercyful, Napalm Death). Great time to be a child glued to a TV.

    Its not even the novelty of a new HUM record after 22 years, its the fact that they just dropped an actual MASTERPIECE on us. God damn.

    Implying that Danzig is relevant in 2020  
     
    I met him in the 90's when he played a venue I was working at. He's laughably short. The little asshole wouldn't make eye-contact with me when I introduced myself, and after a brief back-and-forth he just started ignoring me, even though I was the only other person in the room.  I haven't been able to take him seriously since then.

    Nice. I'm not too familiar with their material but I do love Mickey Young and Total Control. I've only listened to their S/T, should check out the other two in the next few weeks. I like the new track.

    Hype faded and I don't need any physical media at this point, not even vinyl. I guess that's because I'm more picky about what I buy lately, due to reduced vinyl listening time, budget, and having combined household with my lady who is not a  Tool fan. And after about 3 spins I determined it's 7/10 material, nicely done but I'm not gonna play it often enough going forward. I've changed and they haven't really.
