So, as far as I'm aware, the band were kind of forced to make the first track by their label for the re-release so that they could have a clear mainstream "single" for the radio, MTV, etc and they unhappily complied (by reworking the final track)... Chino has stated that the album the band intended to make did not have that track and they were dumb for caving to the label and making it and compromising their vision. I tend to skip it in solidarity 😅

I get that “mini maggit bad because fandom hate it” but you literally cannot tell me that pink maggit would hit as hard if we didn’t have that opener. When I first heard it and realized it was a callback to the first song???? Lost my fucking mind. It’s like watching the ending credits of a movie roll it’s so satisfying and powerful when it has something to connect it, bookend both sides of the album. In that way i think mini is helpful (I also just don’t think it’s as bad as everyone says even if the lyrics/flo are a bit cheesy). Like it’s not a bad song, just a basic song.

That's literally how I heard it the first time listening through it. It made "Pink Maggit" that much better for me. I had no idea that "Back to School" wasn't supposed to be there.

The first song wasn't on the original pressing, it started with 'Feiticeira'. They probably added it on re releases. It truly ruins the mood (IMHO)...anyway, a freaking masterpiece.

their record label wanted another single to meld with the then-thriving nu-metal sound, so they asked the band to rewrite Pink Maggot into something entirely different. Chino especially hated it.

The shortened version is what got me into the band. It's what made me buy the album. It was a smart business decision. Much respect to Deftones for absolutely nailing the record label's demand, even against their will , I think. And while I get what you're saying as far as being a mood killer, it actually made Pink Maggit even more effective and mind-blowing to me on first listen. Like "what, there's a fuller version of Back to School? Hell yeah!"

So glad you finally listened to White Pony! My favorite Deftones song off this album has to be Change (In The House of Flies). I think you'd love their more melodic shoe-gazey rock stuff so I suggest you checking out their album Koi No Yokan, the way I could describe that album is dreamy and spacey, with their classic heavy rhythmic guitars, I think it's an album the vocalist Chino Moreno shines his brightest on, it's very passionate. Thank you for checking White Pony out and glad you're able to dive into different rock genres and give them a chance!

Chino, the singer, has often mentioned Sade as an influence to him, amongst other 80's singers. If you know her stuff then you'll defo be able to hear the similarities (soft & smooth) in his more melodic singing style.

Passenger is a duet with the normal vocalist Chino, and guest vocalist Maynard from Tool. On future listens I'm sure you won't be able to help but hear which is him. And the song structure fits the lyrics which are more or less about sex in a car. Build, climax, sleepy refractory period, "this time drive faster", etc. Thing is, the car is parked the whole time so it's the other meaning of "drive".

The genre would also be considered Alternative Metal and Nu Metal but only at parts. Their previous album Around The Fur is probably their last proper Nu Metal album.

Teenager features DJ Crook aka CrookOne.
