Swerve City has this very simple, steadfast groove that immediately sets a driving tone that just goes. Koi No Yokan is so incredibly dynamic and each song feels like it has its own distinct personality. I honestly don't even know where to start on the songwriting. So yeah, I'm talking about Koi No Yokan, a total package record that features some of the band's best songwriting, strongest performances, and a complimentary production style that is thick, heavenly, and all encompassing. The truth is that I never connected with that record super heavy, certainly not on the level of this late-stage great. Already, I can see the confusion on your face as you briefly look back up at the title and wonder how I could've spelled White Pony so incorrectly.

So I want to shine some light on what is, in my opinion, their best album. Don't get me wrong, I love Deftones, but if you've read my journal entries on their self-titled record and their most recent record Ohms, you might get the opposite impression.
