Product Description

Back when the world was ruled by primitive nu-metal gorillas barking dysfunctional rhymes over recycled rock riffs, Deftones set themselves apart with a wild experimental streak that saw the group incorporating influences as diverse as the Cure, Ornette Coleman, and Aphex Twin. Produced by Bob Erzin (Pink Floyd, Jane's Addiction), the Sacramento band's fifth full-length release, Saturday Night Wrist, features the kind of envelope-pushing fans have come to expect, shifting between gloomy ballads ("Xerces," "Beware") and apocalyptic rockers ("Rapture," "Rats! Rats! Rats!") that in an instant allow singer Chino Moreno to take his dynamic voice from a whisper to a scream with help from guest vocalists such as System of a Down's Serj Tankian and Giant Drag's Annie Hardy. -–Aidin Vaziri
Product Description
'The heavy stuff is really, really heavy, like, really aggressive, and the stuff that's sweet and weird or whatever is sweeter and weirder. A lot of people will probably compare it to White Pony, because that was one of the most diverse records that we did. This one's probably the most diverse record we've done' Chino Moreno. The Deftones' first album in three years, Saturday Night Wrist follows the band's fourth consecutive gold or platinum album, the 2003 self-titled disc that was the Grammyr-winning group's highest charter at #2. Produced by Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Jane's Addiction) and former Far guitarist Shaun Lopez, Saturday Night Wrist is bombastic yet vulnerable, aggressive yet thoughtful combinations that have made the Deftones among the most respected and acclaimed bands in hard rock.

Saturday Night Wrists (Lp)
I own this album in CD format, and MP3. I decided to purchase the Vinyl LP after receiving a turntable for a gift. This album sounds 100 times better on Vinyl. A lot more crisp and the drums are really more dynamic and accurate sounding compared to the CD (not to mention the crappy MP3 bit rate). Abe plays a lot of complex drum sections with high hats, and symbols and you lose alot of that in the digital translations. The mastering is excellent throughout the whole record and is so much better to listen to. I recommend this album to anyone that like music the way it should be heard.

You shouldn't buy this album if you are amongst the many of have stopped listening and just started bitching after White Pony's release.
Deftones delivers another innovative and barrier pushing album, this is definitly a band whose sounds keep progressing and evolving into a beautiful thing. My personal favorites on the album are Mein (with Serj from Syste of a Down!) and the instrumental L,L,R,R. This is a laid back yet heavy record, a very enjoyable release of 2006.

It is true that this album does have a subtle mainstream feel to it. Regardless, it still has that amazing Deftones sound. It makes you want to literally lay on your floor and listen to it with your eyes closed for hours. As you may know, if you know anything about the Deftones, they are so technical with their sound, but in a very inconspicuous way. Their style definitely takes me to a place that no other band does and Saturday Night Wrist is a prime example of that. If you like their previous album, White Pony, you'll love Saturday Night Wrist. I had never really heard a whole lot of it before I bought it but as soon as I heard it, I was in love. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Deftones.

Amazing.
If you enjoyed Deftones self-titled, I STRONGLY advise you pick up a copy of SNW. The sound is mostly of their more recent kind, although they've taken it to a whole new level. Read more

I am one of few deftones fans who can honestly say that my favorite album is always their LAST album. If you ask me, they've just gotten better and better through the years. Read more
