Title: Deftones – Deftones
Year/Genre/City: 2003, Alternative Metal, Sacramento, CA
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

1. Band Drama: Bassist Chi Cheng’s 2008 car crash led to years of benefit shows while he was in a coma; he passed in 2013, and the band’s lineup and pace changed after.

2. Scene Ecology: They launched “Dia de los Deftones” in San Diego (2018)—a band-curated annual event mixing art, local culture, and handpicked support acts.

3. Lineup Shift: Frank Delgado started as a guest electronics/turntables collaborator in the mid-’90s, then became a full-time member—rare for a “fifth member” role in heavy bands.
