In 2020, they kicked off their fourth decade as a unit with their ninth album, Ohms. In the 2000s and 2010s, they pushed their sonic boundaries even further, departing from mainstream-friendly song structures in favor of increasingly expansive atmospherics on sets like 2003's self-titled effort, 2010's Diamond Eyes, and 2016's Gore. As one of the first groups to alternate heavy riffs and screamed vocals with more ethereal music and hushed singing, they influenced a generation of musicians with their trio of platinum-certified early albums: 1995's Adrenaline, 1997's Around the Fur, and 2000's seminal White Pony. As one of the progenitors of the '90s nu-metal movement, Deftones quickly evolved beyond the scene, embracing their individual influences to create an artistic alternative metal hybrid that balanced beauty and brutality.
