Everyone sneezes, even decomposers.

Let it fly! Lol

Best part of the video... wer all human

Still here and I am enjoying your reviews of these songs. Thank you Key of Geebz for your insight into these beautiful songs!

DUDE, holy...Wow, explains why this song is my favorite in their whole career; Tool is my fav band haha! Cheers for that, it's good to spread the knowledge 😊

i have you telling this story on dvd back in the day ive told people this story you can now find it on youtube thanks for telling the fans the true story

Maynard was also very much involved during the White Pony sessions. He almost produced the album.

@@JarrodJPerrott yes he talked about this to i have that on dvd to

Thanks for this quote. Love finding out background on how songs are put together.

Those that think the government is there to help; And those that think..

There are two types of comments: those that are original and those like the one you posted.

@@poker_dealer and yours is vastly different?

@@poker_dealer you literally did the same thing

Honestly, Deftones was one of the most disappointing performances I've seen. It probably was a fluke because I've heard from everyone they are great live, but there was just no passion and no stage presence. To be fair, they had to follow-up Godsmack performing before them, but they just didn't live up to the excitement I had for them.

In Australia, we used to have a massive touring music festival called Big Day Out. One of the last tours had tool and deftones on the schedule. I was absolutely praying for Maynard to appear if they played passenger. It never happened but, holy smokes, it was such a brilliant show. Phenomenal.

Yeah, surprised that Geebz didn't seem to be picking out that it's not just MJK providing vocals.

Totally true, steph couldn’t do what he does without Abe.

There was an article posted a couple weeks back about Rock’s underrated drummer and from what I remember out of 20 drummers on that list, he placed 4th!

Totally agree. His rhythms are so easily recognizable with nothing else playing. And the nuance of his drumming in the fills always gives me chills.

Yeah and love his dotted notes on the kick drum, kind of a signature style of his with the half time feel combined with the dotted note kicks and detailed 16th note accents on the hi-hat 👌🏼 kind of similar to John Otto in Limp Bizkit...

Super technical beast who sets chops aside for the sake of the song. Definitely well schooled and talented as hell!

Yep. He was in the middle of his prime.

That was such a great period for music. Slipknot, System of a Down, TOOL, APC, Queens of the Stone Age, Incubus, Mudvayne and Deftones all making entire albums of timeless fucking music. Oh and the Black Keys

@@kpsa7108 didn't At the Drive In come out with an album around then?

@@notsure1350 never listened to them

Don't forget about the rare Tool "Salival" album release around the same time. I've seen some requests for the "No Quarter" cover on a few of these breakdowns. LOVE your vids. Geebs. You give an "audio production graduate" turned "stay at home mom" some audio joy. Love your vibe🤙🏼 ps... when do we get some Primus?

As seen by your profile

"The" Deftones... **eye twitches** EDIT: I take back the intention of my original post since I misinterpreted the post, but I will leave it up just to keep the bands name clear

@@boboso4705 You misunderstand. Not "The Deftones" but used as "the reacting to Deftones songs". Check the profile. I would never.

Agreed! Can never go wrong with these guys

@@matthewjakubowski9020 I misunderstood and cleared up my original comment.

My wish for a song would be leprous - "castaway angels" or steven wilson's "drive home" that govan solo...

Great observation, that's definitely why reaction channels are so big. Its the same dopamine hit I get watching my son try delicious foods for the first time XD It's clearly built in to us as a species!

With COVID and everything putting such a damper on people getting to interact in-person, these kind of things are huge for me. Getting to "share" experiences with people, to see their enjoyment of things I enjoy as well. It's socializing via social-distancing. Such a great feeling.

Fantastically well put.

Still here. Feel the same way and in the same financial predicament here too. Really well articulated. Cheers

Thanks, it's understandable especially for newcomers to get the voices mixed up

haha I’ve been listening to this song for awhile and just thought Chino was channeling some Maynard

Pretty sure it's "Still _and_ breathless."

I had no idea Maynard was in this 🤯

Such a beautiful duet. Thru complimented eachother perfectly.

Yep. Frank added a LOT to this band's sound as it is known today. He mixes with turntables and using time based and modulation effects that you wouldn't even know it isn't a sampler or keyboard sometimes. Almost like musicque concrete.

Cool profile picture, I wonder where it’s from 🤔

I didn't know this!

@@mattpfarr6129 Also Tori Amos 'Muhammad My Friend'

@@KowProdMedia ? Lol. Got me.

@@wetrocks IDK what that means, but if anyone is interested... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bJp8oaR6qJ-2h6M.html

The time has come to payyyyyyyyyy

Gummy bear necessary for this one 👍

Omg yes rosemary and romantic dreams r my favorite right now.

YEEESSSSS! I've been asking for anything from Koi No Yokan for a while. _Entombed_ is seriously something for everyone to listen to.

Is "gummy bear" what I think it is? What I think it is: Something that people who enjoys life use to relax and/or to enhence the feeling/impact of, for example, art like music?

What does anbody mean with "gummy bear"?

That’s what you got from the lyrics?

@@reformationinc.3376 LOL, that's what it's about...

@@justinkraemer6865 Nope, not buyin it

@@justinkraemer6865 I can see why people get that out of the song, but it's definitely not what I get out of it.

"I did this song with Maynard from Tool. Basically, I told him I wanted to create a scenario of being in a car and being taken for a drive when you don’t really know what’s going on. I wanted him to create a lot of imagery. He wrote a majority of the lyrics and left blanks for me to fill in. It seems like you’re being held captive, but enjoy what’s going on." - Chino It seems to me like Maynard probably meant the song to have kind of a double meaning.

Deftones - ALL Crosses - ALL Team Sleep - ALL Chino - ALL Maynard - ALL

Crosses-Option, 1994, thholyghst Deftones-Knife Party, Rubicon, Cherry Waves. Palms-Patagonia, Future Warrior, Tropics Team Sleep-Blvd Nights, Princeton Review,

let's not forget about Palms

Mascara?

Beauty School

Dude Hole in the Earth

Up.

Sextape.

Headless, Sextape are good songs

I second that

We basically have the same exact music taste

Nope it's not as easy lol. My Own Summer is tricky but sounds very simple to play.

I've always loved his style, it is definitely part of what makes them unique

I have always felt the drums in this song are criminally underrated. One of my all time favs drums in any song. let alone all the work he has created

Groove af

@@dmanm85 I always slip up on it. It sounds so easy but when you get behind the kit and start DOING IT, it's like playing The Rev's parts. You're just like "bro...I thought this'd be easy". The Rev and Abe Cunningham are probably the grooviest and deceiving drummers in all of rock and metal.

Seconded

This is all I have ever wanted. I hope he will get to it eventually, he really seems to work through the suggestion rabbit holes quite well. Also shameless plug request for Orestes live from Red Rock as well.

Thirded!

Fourthed! Cause I'm still right here...

@@rickc2102 Theres vegan gummies out there now, got some that were tapioca based without meaning to.

@Nar Udautas There are lots of goats, Maynard is a higher ranked goat than that guy.

But Acid Bath was cool.

@Nar Udautas Mike Patton makes them both wish they were him.

@@Demoncleanerrr I very very very much prefer Maynard's voice, tone and control wise, and lyrics too. But yeah Patton is talented as fuck. I know he has a huge vocal range and can sing many styles but Maynard has a natural tone that is addictive, plus he has better lyrics, but that's just IMO.

Chino’s the GOAT.

chino m. ftw!

Recognized? lol....seems like an odd thing to say. And pretty subjective. Personally, I'd say Billy Corgan is more distinctive vocally. But, I'll definitely agree he's among the most recognized singers period. And in this overall genre, I definitely think Chino is the best vocalist, by far. Maynard is amazing, of course. But Chino's voice is altogether insane....and I actually prefer is more melodic voice. The brash banshee screams are cool for sure....but his smooth sensual silky new wave-y vocals are what do it for me. I think that side of his singing is perfectly exemplified on the Crosses project. I sure hope Crosses releases another album some time.....that one album they did is absolutely flawless.

Chris Cornell.......End of discussion.

True. Billy Corgan is equally distinct, although I find his whine annoying. Chris Cornell kinda sounds like a few other singers, he's good but I'm also not a huge fan. These two were more 90s, whereas Deftones is 2000 onward

@@michaeltveten8458 Well there's Mike Patton, so maybe not end of discussion...

Weak and powerless for sure!!!! I'd love to see him react to the package.

Yes the hollow is amazing

By and Down too

The noose

Gonna listen to Mer De Noms & Thirteenth Step right now. Would love for him to check out the stone & echo version of counting bodies like sheep. After a gummy or 4.

Wow, thank you!

That was literally the most recent song I listened to, just last night. GET OUT OF MY HEAD :P

GREAT song recommendation

Great recommendation 👍🏼

Still here, btw!

Fuck, man, didn’t expect to see a Holy Fawn request here. Fantastic shout. Brilliant band and legit one of my fave albums of the last... 10 years? So, so good. Hoping for something new this year.

Absolutely, same here. Criminally underrated album, the ambience is next level. Fantastic live as well.

Dark Stone too, that chord that opens the album is one of the largest things I've ever heard, like a massive monolith of guitar sound that just emerges from the mist.

Such a way to open an album, truly monolithic sound.

o shit! i forgot about this song! so dope!

O my GOD yes! FTM is so underknown! Awesome awesome suggestion!

I wish that he does Beneath TThese Falling Leaves from them:c

Anything from Fair to Midland would be awesome. Best live band I've ever seen !!

@@feintcircles True, I was lucky enough to see them when they toured Australia with Dead Letter Circus, the venue only held about 150 people. Before that I'd never heard of them, after=fan for life.

the last baron gets all the upvotes I can give

Fuck yes, Crack the Skye is a masterpiece.

@@shaneminckley8637 The fact that they open shows with it is madness.

@@Hamsammich111 They do?? Sick.

Really anything off of crack the skye would be great

@key of geebz as this person said, that part is Chino, not Maynard.

RIP CHINO

@@timhintz9926 Chino's not dead. Chi Cheng, Defrones' bassist passed away.

@@timhintz9926 You mean Chi, Chino is still alive.

@@hierarch616 LOL yes, yes I do... man its been years I can't believe I got his name wrong

@Lxrd Kami lol chino isn't dead he was talking about Chi Cheng

And now there's 10. Sad day.

Skeksis would be great.

Gravity by APC, or just do the whole first 2 albums all at once, right?

Super sick cover

Fun fact: the Led Zeppelin version is a cover as well

That's decent. Would rather see No Quarter from Tool though. When the levee breaks is my favorite Zepnsong even, but the way Tool did No Quarter is just something special

@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 Agreed, about No Quarter. The first 2 APC records were special though, thirteenth Step being my personal fav. It's a concept album that has a whole storyline that is very much close to my own personal experiences in life. The lyrics are TOO real and not at all 'phoned in', which many artists try to do with lyrics about topics when they haven't had the experience they are writing about personally. Maynard claims, tho I have not read his book, mainly I get this from his Joe Rogan interviews, to not have ever been addicted to hard drugs. That surprises me because his lyrics are so genuine. The chorus from the song Gravity, the last track, after the '12 steps' are completed, to me it's actually about relapsing. The bridge of the song goes: "calm these hands before they snare another pill then drive another nail down another meaty hole, please release me". The chorus part is: "high and surrendering to gravity and the unknown. Catch me, heal me, lift me back up to the sun. I choose to live". Gives me chills. They use shorter 'odd' time signatures for the first 2 choruses, I believe it's 6/8 or 3/4, or maybe 12/8, to cause 'tension' in the song. But then on the last chorus they play the same chord progression and basic melodies to a straight 4/4 to give 'resolve'. This tension-resolve thing fits right with the lyrics being sang by Maynard. The last chorus the 'resolve' is mostly noticed on the line "high and surrendering to gravity and the unknown...". The person feels relief and is giving in to the gravity of the drug/addiction, no longer wanting to fight it, giving into the unknown. Or they could be 'finding God' and giving into the 'gravity' of religion, a new addiction, IDK but the 'easier' timing/beat of the music flows smoother than the previous choruses. I just love how they use the timing/meter of the music to create tension and release that corresponds to the lyrics to cause greater effect.

Primus Sucks! Do “Wynona’s Big Brown Beaver”!

Honestly would love his take on a lot of primus their rhythm section is amazing

I've heard it 600 times and i still get chills now and then. =)

Right?

Still here brother!

Or Over the Electric Grapevine!

that song is so good

💯

Yes! Been listening to them since '99 and they don't have a bag song or album. Looking forward to the new release.

Nothing like standing by the front of the stage hearing that bass hit in comfortable liar.

This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In)...Vitamin R, The Clincher, etc. Such a dope album!

Wrong he’s been using a double pedal since early days. It’s very subtle but on when girls telephone boys…

It came out June 2000, just under a year before Lateralus. Amazing time...😁
