The band have a new album, possibly titled "Saturday Night Wrist" scheduled for release in Spring 2005. Sarah Connor was born in Delmenhorst (Lower Saxony) near Bremen in Germany as Sarah Lewe. Erlewine is slightly bothered, however, noting that "Deftones feel compelled to strengthen their metallic roots" by forsaking "the very things that make them better and more interesting than the rest — namely, their love of art rock, whether it's via the Cure or My Bloody Valentine." He closes by writing, "When they do play by the rules, they're good, but they're great when they don't follow a map.".

Sarah Connor (born June 13, 1980) is a German pop music singer who has enjoyed a great deal of success on European pop charts in the early 2000s. In reviewing Deftones Stephen Thomas Erlewine writes that "Hexagram," the album's opener, " hits hard — harder than they ever have, revealing how mushy Staind is, or how toothless Linkin Park is, even if it's a bit of a shame that Chino Moreno has resorted to guttural barking for singing.".

Sarah Connor (2004). Their fourth and latest album, Deftones, was released in 2003. Key To My Soul (2003). An acoustic of Boy's Republic was to appear on Black Stallion, and part of it was leaked and spread through file sharing programs. Unbelievable (2002).

Green Eyed Soul (2001). White Pony later went on to earn multi-platinum status as well as a Grammy award for Best Metal Performance.

boyband Natural. Of White Pony, one review wrote, "Moreno is exquisitely mind-blowing, but his fear is also evident" and that "Deftones went soft, but in an impressive way, to twist around its signature punk-thrash sound." [2] (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:21o20r1au48n~T1). It features the U.S. A collaboration with singer Maynard James Keenan of Tool on "Passenger" is a highlight. "Just One Last Dance" has reached number 1 in Germany, Switzerland and Austria and reached top 40 on a composite World Top 40. ("Teenager" was originally a Team Sleep song.) "Knife Prty" features a stunning, Diamanda Galas-like vocal performance by Rodleen. "Music Is The Key" featuring New York a capella singers Naturally 7 went to number 1 in Germany, number 2 in Switzerland, top ten in Austria and top 40 on composite European and world dance/trance charts; and. Reviews were overwhelmingly positive, noting Moreno's increasing sophistication as a lyricist and singer, and the group's bold experimentalism: The fragile "Teenager", for example, incorporates elements of glitch and trip hop, with programming duties carried out by friend and Team Sleep bandmate, DJ Crook, aka, "Crookone".

"Bounce" went top 20 in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Delgado was now a full-time band member, and he added greatly to the atmospheric album. "He's Unbelievable" went top 20 in Germany and Austria; and. It is generally considered by fans to be Deftones' most mature recording. "Skin To Skin" went top 10 on a composite European top 10 chart, as well as Germany, Austria and Portugal;. In 2000, the band's third album, White Pony, was released. This mellow version with a new trip-hop-esque beat by Delgado inspired vocalist Chino Moreno to expand on softer music, which eventually lead to his side project Team Sleep.

"Be Quiet And Drive" was performed acoustic with Incubus frontman Brandom Boyd and Adam Sandler for the "Little Nicky" soundtrack. Delgado again appeared on several songs, and demonstrated his deft, inventive touch at a time when turntable scratching was in danger of becoming a nu metal cliche. "My Own Summer" and "Be Quiet and Drive" were hits, the latter's music video earned significant play on MTV. It also sold well, and included a collaboration with Max Cavalera of Sepultura on "Headup," a tribute to Max's late step-son Dana Wells.

Around The Fur was released in 1997. Though Deftones were only tangentially associated with nu metal, they feared the increasingly negative use of the term and separated themselves from other such groups, both professionally and aesthetically. This was due in part to the fact that Deftones were often lumped into the then-emerging genre of nu-metal. About this time, Deftones stopped touring and collaborating with bands like Korn.

One review of '"Adrenaline" noted Cunningham's "surprisingly sophisticated drumming" and wrote that "Unlike many of their contemporaries, the Deftones are very controlled even in the midst of chaos." [1] (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:nr6m96hofep6~T1). Delgado was not yet a member, but he performed on several songs. "Bored" was a minor hit. The album sold well, and earned mostly positive reviews.

They signed to Maverick Records, which is owned by Madonna, in 1994 and released their debut album, Adrenaline, the following year. Deftones enjoyed the early sponsorship of local favorites Korn, with whom they shared a fan community drawn largely from skateboarders. Carpenter was struck by a drunk driver; this tragedy became a benefit when Carpenter received a large insurance settlement, and was able to buy some expensive, high-quality equipment for the band. Cheng joined after their original bassist left.

The founding members of the band met while skateboarding, and their first rehearsals together took place in 1989-1990 while they were in high school; among their early songs was a cover of Danzig's "Twist Of Cain". Moreno has cited Morrissey, The Cure's Robert Smith and Depeche Mode's David Gahan among his favorite singers, and beyond an occasional similarity in vocal technique, these singers' sweeping sense of drama and delicate vulnerability is often evident in Moreno's vocals. Moreno's poetic lyrics--described by a Time magazine critic as "furiously intelligent"--are often evocative, yet sparse enough to allow for multiple interpretations, and sometimes make startling use of wordplay. Deftones have often been praised as one of the more innovative and unique heavy metal bands of recent years.

The band consists of Chino Moreno (vocals, guitar), Stephen Carpenter (guitar), Abe Cunningham (drums), Chi Cheng (bass) and turntablist/keyboardist/sampler player Frank Delgado. Deftones are a multi-platinum selling, Grammy award winning rock band from Sacramento, California. possibly 'Saturday Night Wrist', (2005). Deftones, (2003).
