i had no idea that they did so many cool covers of 80s artists including 2 DD songs (& even a Sade song!)...a full half of my list consists of covers while i had one song each from each of their official studio albums (except for Deftones & Diamond Eyes)

Maybe one of the next rock tournament games could be a cover competition Daryl the Beryl ? :).

Our next tournament is supposed to be a winter tournament, but now that spring is here, its going to be a winter/spring songs tournament.

What exactly does that mean? Songs about the seasons, like "Summer Of 69" . I can only think of "Spring Love" by Stevie B., but that's not even apt for this forum?

It's open until Midnight EST on the 28th, so you still have several days to decide. The submission form is in the OP of the thread.

Saturday Night Wrist is my favourite album of theirs.

2 from Around The Fur
3 from White Pony
4 from Saturday Night Wrist
1 from Gore

[Doc Indie Party Rock]

So I got mine in. Not very melodic are they? I like their smashing Pumpkins like vibe, but not the sreamy material. It sounds way to distorted for my taste. For someone who really isn't too familiar with their music I just chose the stuff that sings to me. "Sex Tape" is beautiful among others like "Jealous Guy"(download? Check.)....and yes; sue me, but "Drive (Cars' cover) is my favorite.

[American Idiot]

I just submitted mine after listening the nothing but Deftones at work over the last week. It's a mixture of singles and album tracks and not all bigger hits as well.

Per album:
Adrenaline - 0
Around the Fur - 2
White Pony - 2
Self-Titled - 0
B-Sides & Rarities - 0
Saturday Night Wrist - 1
Diamond Eyes - 1
Koi No Yokan - 3
Gore - 1

[rainie]

Submitted mine. I went:

1 Adrenaline
2 Around the Fur
1 White Pony
0 Self Titled (though Hexgram almost made my list)
3 Saturday Night Wrist
0 Diamond Eyes
3 Koi No Yokan
0 Gore (probably since I haven't given that album enough time to grow on me)

Deftones are one of my favorite bands so it was tough deciding a top 10 and even tougher ranking them. My ranking is pretty arbitrary and changes pretty frequently, but my top 10 should be a fairly accurate look at some of my favorite songs by them. In case you can't tell by my rankings my favorite two albums by them are KNY and SNW (by a big margin), but for the rankings, I relistened to Around the Fur and Diamond Eyes and rediscovered some great songs (I was gonna go through even more of their albums but I got burned out on them), so if nothing else I got to listen to some great music during this lol.

Web, 24 hour submisison reminder?

[Web]

I was wondering if someone was going to do my work for me...

Submissions are due tomorrow, March April 28th at Midnight EST.
for some reason, I really want it to be March again....

[Green Baron]

They're due in 11 months?

[Daryl the Beryl]

Web made the mistake the last poll that it's still March so...

Um, what?

[crash46]

If he started with their 90s records in chronological order, after living under a boulder for this entire millennium (there's no way 91x could've ignored every last one of their 2000s hit singles, is there?), and already had come to a conclusion after hearing those, then I can kinda see where he's coming from. I guess.

MX = Maximum position; highest the song reached on any submission
RP = Total reporters; how many posters listed the song in their Top 10.

Here's the link to all of your votes!

Deftones is next, but I'll wait a few days to post the official ballot. Feel free to start listening now.

[godjanny]

There should be a Deftones song called Midnight Random. If not, they should at least have a song called Midnight.

[rainie]

Wow wasn't expecting Digital Bath to take it! Not complaining, it is a good song, but would have rather had Change win, which is the outcome I expected.

This was pretty fun, I'm sad I missed the Foo Fighters and Queens of the Stone Age editions of these but I look forward to voting on more of these in the future.

Also just FYI, I forgot to put System of a Down down as one of my artist nominees but I would love for them to make it on here.

[Doc Indie Party Rock]

I saw a lot of suggestions for The Cure. I look forward to that one.

[Lordef†ones]

What a surprising top 10. Digital Bath taking #1 delights me but Rosemary below the top 20 irks me. You can definitely tell this board is favored by Alt over Metal

[Green Baron]

Cherry Waves, Hexagram and Korea just missed my Top 10

[American Idiot]

I'm shocked that "Digital Bath" got #1 by far. I didn't choose that in my Top 10 nor did I choose "Change," but they were both in my Top 15. Also, "Passenger" being so high is very surprising since I don't believe it was a single. Maybe I'm wrong.

I'm pretty sure it was a single but even if it wasn't it's a definite fan favorite (considering it's basically Deftones + Tool) and is one of their most well known songs. It being up this high doesn't shock me at all.

[godjanny]

I'm surprised Hexagram only got two points. It didn't make my top 10 per se, but I thought it was a fan favourite.

[Red]

If "Change" didn't win, honestly, I expected "Digital Bath" to. Seem to be the two most universally beloved Deftones tracks. Pleasant surprise to see "Passenger" so high.

Wait...I was the only person to include "Beauty School"?!
