The story of Deftones from Sacramento is truly curious. The guys were discovered by none other than Madonna. Deftones are considered one of the most influential bands in nu metal. However, the band itself never felt comfortable in that genre. The band became a flagship of nu metal - a label that lead singer Moreno did not appreciate at all. As a result, their follow-up album White Pony in 2000 took on a much darker and more experimental tone and became commercially successful thanks to the single "Elite". It sold over one million copies. Despite their success, there were increasing disputes and disagreements within the band. It escalated to the point where the band members hardly spoke to each other and recorded their album Saturday Night Wrist separately in different studios. Despite all obstacles and delays, the album, which featured a guest part by Serj Tankian from System Of A Down, was well received by fans and critics. For many metal fans, the band is a real insider tip when it comes to creative songwriting, unique riffs, and innovative crossover sounds.
