Frontman Chino Moreno is still intense, and his sour vocals throughout the entire record growl and stomp all over mainstream movements. The Deftones went soft, but in an impressive way, to twist around its signature punk thrash sound. The band struggled with leading its direction, trudging through weighed emotion, but White Pony was the tantalizing outcome. Their 1997 sophomore effort Around the Fur was hailed to blast out commercially, but such pressure crippled the band musically and personally. Sensing painful frustrations and personal rediscovery with its allusive microcosm of an album title, the Californian alt-rock five piece were periodically stifled while making White Pony. Hard rockers Deftones take their heavy post-grunge ways to another level on their third album White Pony.
