the Wikipedia link to her name redirects to a low-budget horror movie about a truck driver asphyxiating a prostitute
This sounds like the plot of a Deftones song. I've got a real problem with Chino's stalker fetish - the guy's written like three or four songs about kidnapping and killing women. "Feiteceira," at least, makes the singer the victim for once.

It's taken The Bunny Game four years to receive a proper American release, and we can see why. As the British Board of Film Classification's decision to ban it from UK cinemas makes clear, director Adam Rehmeier's black-and-white, near-snuff film isn't for the faint of heart; frankly, we don't know who in the hell it's for exactly.The Human Centipede II, another recent piece of B&W exploitation, at least has the self-awareness and grasp on gallows humor to make us laugh at its insanity; The Bunny Game, with its repulsive presentation of a prostitute named Bunny (Rodleen Getsic) being endlessly and sickeningly savaged by a mad trucker, is torture porn without a funny bone in its celluloid body. Play this game at your own risk.

Wasn't Saturday Night Wrist the one produced by Bob Ezrin, and didn't Ezrin come out and say publicly well before its release that Chino was holding up the rest of the band by delaying recording his vox to focus on Team Sleep instead?

"Elite" blew my mind when I first heard it (at 13 or so), easily the most intense thing I'd ever heard up to that point. I almost couldn't even deal with it at first.

anyway i think it's hard to reduce their process to "chino adds vocals later" though that was probably the process for the new record as chino was in like five side projects over the past three years
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Friday, 5 February 2016 06:45 (eight years ago) link
yeah not sure what the timeline was there
In any case I find the relationship between the vox and the instrumentals fascinating and 100% unique
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Friday, 5 February 2016 18:38 (eight years ago) link
In terms of pure recording order, everything I've recorded (and everything that was't just a recorded studio jam) has always been rhythm section -> guitar/keys -> vocals so this doesn't seem all that unique to me, unless the songwriting process is actually to create a fully-formed instrumental that a vocal melody is composed and put on top of without any tweaking/reordering/rewriting of the instrumental.

'Street Carp'
Unsure as to whether this is the "peak" of "nu-metal", though. For me personally that accolade goes to System of a Down's Toxicity.

I love(d?) SOaD too, though having Serj actually appear on a Deftones track ("Mein") turned out to be a bit of a failed experiment imo. Their worlds are too different.

I agree, Iowa is a better record than the self-titled release, but the self-titled release had far more commercial impact.
― The Dave Grohl of ILX (Turrican), Friday, 5 February 2016 19:49 (eight years ago) link

― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Friday, 5 February 2016 19:50 (eight years ago) link
Thanks to this thread I went and listened to this album for the first time in at least 12 years. I was way into it from roughly ages 11-13, thanks to my older brother (from whom I got basically all musical knowledge at the time). In retrospect it may have had a bigger influence on the kind of punk/post-punk/indie music I got into subsequently than I ever realized.
Anyway, it's going to be "Digital Bath" for me. Great song, awesome drumming.
― JRN, Friday, 5 February 2016 23:32 (eight years ago) link
Also, even though the band apparently hated it and recorded it begrudgingly, I'm grateful for "Back to School". My brother and I were into Limp Bizkit, Korn, and RATM around this time, and without that song we probably would have never heard White Pony. There really couldn't have been a more perfect gateway.
― JRN, Friday, 5 February 2016 23:35 (eight years ago) link
"Back to School" is super fun. It would have made a fine Track 2. Just don't like it as an opener when contrasted to "Feiticeira."
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Saturday, 6 February 2016 00:32 (eight years ago) link
I think it works great as an opener, but then I've never heard the album any other way.
― JRN, Saturday, 6 February 2016 01:14 (eight years ago) link
fuck "back to school" tbh
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 6 February 2016 01:16 (eight years ago) link
I can't bring myself to dislike it. The rap verses do make me cringe a little, and they stick out like a sore thumb in the context of the rest of the album. But everything else about it works for me.
― JRN, Saturday, 6 February 2016 01:33 (eight years ago) link
I remember how appalled I was when I heard 'Back To School' for the first time, because when White Pony first came out I remember hearing 'Pink Maggit' and thinking "man, that's actually one hell of a catchy melody, they should go all-out and release that as a single", but then when I heard 'Back To School' and what they'd done with it, I was all like "oh, for fucks sake, what have you done?" ... I always thought they should have just put out 'Pink Maggit' as it was and be done with it.
