Deftones come to the intimate Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theatre on Wednesday August 25^th at 8PM.  Baroness provides support.

Deftones were one of the first groups to alternate heavy riffs and screamed vocals with more ethereal music and hushed singing — spawning a fair amount of imitators in their wake. Although the group was more heavy metal-based, the early ’90s saw Deftones expand their sound even further, inspired by such groundbreakers as Tool, Rage Against the Machine, and Faith No More. The quartet’s debut full-length, Adrenaline wasn’t an instant success, but Deftones built a dedicated fan base the old-fashioned way — by touring relentlessly (both on their own and opening for more established acts). However their sophomore release, Around the Fur more than delivered, catapulting the band to the top of the alt-metal mountain on the strength of such MTV/radio faves as “My Own Summer (Shove It)” and “Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away).” White Pony was eventually released in June of 2000 and proved to be one of the most eagerly anticipated heavy rock releases of the year. The album was another success (debuting at number three on the album charts), and it showed the quintet unafraid to experiment, with such ’80s modern rock influences as the Cure and the Smiths seeping into Deftones’ sound. After a slight hiatus, Deftones reunited to work on new ideas. Eagerly anticipated by both fans and critics alike, the self-titled Deftones dropped in May 2003 and spawned the single “Minerva.” Deftones ended up peaking at number two on the Billboard 200, and the band took a well-deserved break for rest and side projects. In October 2005, Deftones issued a two-disc set of B-sides and rarities before returning with a new studio full-length, Saturday Night Wrist, a year later.  Not one to stand idle, Deftones recently released a new studio album, Diamond Eyes.
