About this listen

Before Around the Fur became a TikTok staple, Deftones were already defining the sexier, moodier corner of nu metal. With breathy vocals, distorted riffs, and a vibe that sits between violence and vulnerability, their sound has become a Gen Z identity marker.


In this episode, Marc Lajeunesse and Safa Hachi break down the band’s sonic evolution, viral (sex) appeal and the contradictions that make them so relatable to a generation obsessed with both individuality and trend cycles. From “My Own Summer” to “Change (In the House of Flies),” we explore how Deftones helped turn nu metal into a lifestyle.
