Album Notes & Community Reviews
Deftones' raw and abrasive debut, 'Adrenaline', helped lay the foundational groundwork for the burgeoning nu-metal scene. The album is incredibly aggressive and anxious, blending heavy, groove-oriented alternative metal riffs with Chino Moreno's dynamic, post-hardcore-influenced vocal shrieks.
