Sorry, I had to resurrect this thread. I decided to listen to all their albums and rank them. I'm not a fan of the newer stuff, so many of you will disagree with my rankings. And many will gawk at the fact that Saturday Night Wrist is my second favorite. I agree, there are a lot of unforgettable songs on that album, but the ones that are good are some of my favorite Deftones songs ever (I'm a sucker for Shoegaze) so I had to rank it high. I think White Pony deserved the hype it got when it first came out because it was so different, but 15 years later I think we can acknowledge it was their first foray into that sound and was "green" in a lot of ways. Listening now I actually think Around the Fur was a better album song for song, though you certainly can't deny how clean White Pony sounded when compared to the gritty ATF.
