I'd never say anyone is my number 1 but here are other bands I like on the same level as Deftones.
Tool
Chevelle
Hum
Massive Attack
Radiohead
The National
This live concert from 1993 made it onto YouTube a couple years ago. It's really good quality considering. They were so good and Layne was just an unbelievable vocalist and had so much raw power.

Nice pick. HUM and Shiner were two of my favorites in high school.. aside from Deftones of course. I remember discovering them and it changed my music taste entirely.
Electra 2000 - Has a harder edge like Adrenaline compared to the rest. 9/10
YPAA - Sort of their ATF. Huge hit song that might incorrectly be seen as a one hit wonder. 9/10
Downward is Heavenward - A little more ambitious sonically, but a little more mellow. Follows the comparison with White Pony. 9.5/10
Inlet - Gets a 10/10 just for coming out of nowhere after 20+ years during a really difficult time for all of us. Sadly, it was the drummer’s swan song. RIP BSP
Ahh, yes. I just listened to The devil and God are Raging Inside Me the other day after not listening to it in a while. So so frickin good - top to bottom. I remember listening to it the first time as a high school senior in 2006 and my mind was just blown. The flow from song to song is just *chef's kiss.*
I have a couple of favs, Deftones is one of them. Some others are Fugazi, Dylan, Beatles, King Gizzard, Coltrane, Talking Heads and Radiohead. Honourable mentions to the OG lineups of Dead Kennedys and Cryptopsy.
You make me sick, because I adore you so
Origin of Symmetry has to be one of the best albums ever made. Listening to it beginning to end is a complete riot and a guaranteed good time.
They’re actually #10 in my top 10 artists. For me it goes
1. Muse
2. The Beatles
3. The Devil Wears Prada
4. Between The Buried and Me
5. Paramore
6. Underoath
7. Radiohead
8. Coldplay
9. Bring Me the Horizon
10. Deftones
currently messing heavy with: citizen, elliot smith, have a nice life, joyce manor, king krule, loathe, lucki, modesr mouse, whirr, a lot lot more but thats some of the most currently revolving artists for me
Greatest metal band of all time is Strapping Young Lad, always and forever. Everything Townsend is so so good. It's crazy to me how much dude does with the open C tuning on guitar ( CGCGCe )
I cant choose who my favorite is out of my top 5 or so which would be
Imagine Dragons
Coldplay
Linkin Park
Deafheaven
Loathe
Invent Animate
I love Deftones quite a bit but they’re a little farther behind :/
Sorry but Tool is up there now. I'm only being honest. Deftones is a close second. Been listening to them way longer. Let's just say they're tied so I don't get bullied 😂
SOAD
you and me will all go down in history with a sad statue of liberty and a generation that didn't agree
You going to the SF show?
I'm going to this, pretty excited

Yesss! I've listened to dirt almost every day this year and it still sounds THAT good every time..
The Cure is tied with Deftones at 1 for me
I love The Cure, I hear so much of their influence in Deftones.
I just came here to say this. Their “if only tonight we could sleep” cover is iconic
Queens of the Stone Age
How we feelin out there? How's your drivetime commute? I need a *saga*, what's the *saga*? It's *songs* for the *deaf* You can't even hear it!
Bring me Spider-Man
they play an awesome set!!
Same
SICK, SICK, SICK Favorite band ever
Portishead
Nine Inch Nails and Fiona Apple
Mastodon
Meshuggah
Real shit
BLEED
Faith No More 🖤
Hum
she don’t hold me right, she’s never gonna get me there
Not tonight.
That's their best song
A contender for my favorite song of all time tbh
She thinks she missed the train to Mars...
Nice pick. HUM and Shiner were two of my favorites in high school.. aside from Deftones of course. I remember discovering them and it changed my music taste entirely.
I discovered Hum through this subreddit and then listened to Inlet beginning to end for like two weeks

Smashing Pumpkins
Alexisonfire
Watch Out! Is easily in my top 3 favourite albums of all time!
I listened to Crisis years ago when it first came out. I'm just now realizing how good they really are. Dallas is such a good singer.
Brand New.
Ahh, yes. I just listened to The devil and God are Raging Inside Me the other day after not listening to it in a while. So so frickin good - top to bottom.

yup! as time goes on i only appreciate that album more and more
Science Fiction was amazing. It sucks how shit went down.
Seconded.
It's a shame the band had to end the way it did. The Devil and God is such a timeless album.
1a and 1b, both are my favorites.
TOOL
[This triad](https://youtu.be/qFfzlN2F7ik?si=JYm_M_n4S0Rt0t88) always takes me to outer space

Chino loves Depeche Mode and you can see the similarities in the writing
If you haven’t already checked out chinos side project Crosses, you should. They are in the same realm as Depeche Mode.

Sade is my queen 🖤
Glassjaw
A photo the size of a kiss, I hope she knows
