They were in Europe so they had shipped the throne over. I think the throne even had its own road case. He sat for his entire set, sitting in the middle of the stage on a fucking throne. So that was my first introduction to Limp Bizkit.Īnd then with Korn, we played one time at a festival in Europe with Jonathan Davis playing solo. Fred Durst gave my first wife a tattoo of a star on the bottom of her foot when she was 14 years old in his trailer home. Well, Limp Bizkit are from Jacksonville, Florida, so they were really close to Gainesville, where I lived at the time.
What were some your first memories of nu metal? Compared to their first two, their lead singer here attempted to break from the scream-first conventions of nu metal and make more melodic songs.ĭo you know who recorded this record? And who put it out? That scream I just heard is very nu metal to me. They were maybe inspired by Deftones then. I think Middle Class Rut came well after this. There you go! When did this album come out? Looking them up I see that Middle Class Rut are a Sacramento band which is where Deftones are from too. Although, to their credit, they have this full of a sound. Musically, too, but Middle Class Rut are a two-piece. The vocals here especially remind me of that band. It kind of reminds me of that band Middle Class Rut. However, every Deftones fan I know would kill me for thinking that, and this album is a bit different. Noisey: I’m not a Deftones fan to begin with but my gut reaction before listening to this LP was yes. To truly appreciate Deftones’ legendary status in 2020, consider that they would’ve had an incredible year even if they released no new music at all.Laura Jane Grace: Quick question. May would have brought the 20th-anniversary celebration of White Pony, their game-changing masterpiece of progressive, shoegaze, and trip-hop-inflected metal that bore an obvious imprint on two of the first quarter’s most acclaimed rock albums, Higher Power’s 27 Miles Underwater and Loathe’s I Let It In And It Took Everything. We would have likely also seen the third iteration of Dia De Los Deftones, the daylong San Diego festival whose curators’ massive reach previously allowed sensible lineups to be created out of artists ranging from Rocket From the Crypt, Vein, Hum, Future, Chvrches, Doja Cat, JPEGMAFIA, and Megan Thee Stallion.īut instead of simply taking a victory lap, Deftones went on another title run. Their ninth studio album Ohms arrived in September to the most thunderously positive reviews of their entire career, and it has already topped Revolver’s Best Albums list of 2020.
