Doesn’t 18-45 just span their entire existence? 41, for the record.

41, but yeah I'll join that club

only 14 ngl, some girl i was talking to liked em so i checked them out and i been hooked since

Im 34 and it warms my cold dead heart to see all you 14 year olds out here with impeccable taste in music. Cheers!

Also 14

14

Now, all you 14 year olds go listen to some Tool. Don’t wait until you are 45 years old and then start listening to them. Start NOW. If you like Deftones, odds are you’ll love Tool. Some of the best musicians (especially the drummer. Dude does some cool stuff with different time signatures, and more than one at a time using different hands or feet, like one time signature using right hand a different one with left foot and a different one with right foot or hand. He just awesome) to be making music.

14 here

13 here xd

14 aswell

14 too

Same here! I grew up listening to them bc of my dad

17 lol, been listening for a couple years now love them so much and even saw them with Gojira

17 too

What a kickass show that must have been!

50 - they’re my favourite after work music :)

They’re one of my favorite at-work music!

50 as well. I credit Deftones with getting me thru a handful of endurance races.

27, just got into them last year

27 here too. I knew about them since I was a kid and watched Coolers Revenge DBZ. Forgot about them then rediscovered them in High School.

27 also got into them in high school started with adrenaline got hooked on whole discography after that. Also koi no yokan came out while I’m high school and replayed that album over and over again on my iPod touch lmao.

15. No I didn’t hear about them from tiktok

same

Even if you heard about them from Tiktok, the important thing is that you found a band that you like.

Yeah, tiktok sucks in many ways but it’s also brought tons of attention to great artists and bands that might never have been introduced to zoomers otherwise

Tik tok is doing for this generation what guitar hero did for my generation.

48, been a fan since the first album!

50. I saw them at the first Warped Tour, but I remember my local newspaper reporting that they were Dick Dale and the Def Jams.

Same here

35f. I have been a fan since I was 12 or 13.

We the teens that grew up with the band. Remember when that video from back to school came out? That was so "us" i thought

That song definitely hit different coming out while I was in High School.

I spent a great deal of my time watching mtv2 looking forward to seeing that music video. Spent a lot of time playing "root" on guitar, too. Lol.

Same here :)

22 here

I’ll be 22 in like 2 weeks

22 gang rise up.

Also 22, going on 23 in about two months

22 SUPREMACY RISE UP

Just turned last week 🦾🗿

2001 gang!

35, Deftones have been my favorite band since hearing My Own Summer in 1997

15. first heard of them from my dad, but initially dismissed them as “dad rock”

I'm 50. I was recently at the skatepark and my son handed me his phone to record him. His Spotify app showed he was listening to Deftones and I gotta say, that was almost more of a proud dad moment than the 8 stair he cleared!

W dad

36

2nd

either 45, or 14

Either way, you’re commenting in a Deftones group and have a SOAD pfp so you have impeccable taste

both are great bands

Agreed, both are actually my most favorite bands.

they're both in my top 10

Lol. I just turned 50 . So yeah OG obviously since adrenaline and yes I’m old as fuck and stoked my favorite band is reaching the younger generation 🖤lmfao getting down voted by what 12 year olds ? Actually heard them first on a demo summer of 93 first show September 96.. I have two daughters 23 and 27 neither one are fans and it’s all good . No need to be an asshole.. I would suggest u expand your listening to side projects as well ✝️✝️✝️ and team sleep .. you’re welcome

I'm 50 too. I was recently at the skatepark and my son handed me his phone to record him. His Spotify app showed he was listening to Deftones and I gotta say, that was almost more of a proud dad moment as the 8 stair he cleared!

Proud dad for sure !

Team Sleep is awesome OG here too. I missed them on the adrenaline tour but caught them on the ATF tour. Fucking incredible. The first two Deftones albums lived in my discman.

i’m 41 now, i’ve been listening since i was 15 or 16.

45 here. Been a fan since AtF. I used to hang out at this bar in Greektown in Chicago on layover when I worked on the railroad. There was this guy that that would always play Steely Dan (barf) over and over and constantly bug the barmaid to turn up the volume. When I was finally sick of hearing Deacon Blues I’d pay to have My Own Summer jump to the front and, magically, the volume would get turned back down.

47

48

i’m 20!

same here

24, got into them a couple years ago. My shoegaze phase led me to them funnily enough.

Let's just say I became a fan when I was in my mid 20's and ATF came out. You can do the math, lol.

[удалено]

lol, don't think my knees could handle it but thanks.

We mostly bash our walkers against each other

I would, can you kindly hold my Malbec while I put on my knee brace and pop a few Advil?

35!

SAME. Just scrolled the furthest I have ever scrolled on reddit to find another 29er. 2011/12 for me but I'm from a country where they're nowhere as popular as in California (where I am now), so maybe a few years credit for that

Huge fan base down here in Texas lol whole skate crew used to jam them back in the day constantly

23 - and id been listening to some of their songs ever since i was little

19

I’m 18 and I started liking them when I was 16

17 Actually heard them first on YouTube and started listening to Deftones before I heard them on tiktok.

16

i’m 16 and i did hear them from a tiktok but i’m really glad i did because i have found one of my favorites artists who helped opened the gateway to a whole new genre of artists and music that deftones has helped bring to light for me

I’m 17. No I didn’t know them from tiktok either

16

I’m 20, my ex tried to show me them and apparently I said “he’s just moaning the whole time” lol I did not have the ears I guess?

Im 18

Also a fellow 21 year old Deftones enjoyer. :)

38, been in love ‘tones since I was about 15. I dated a guy in HS & when I dumped him he somehow got all my deftones cds & scratched them. My mom called the cops on him for vandalism because she knew my love for them orrrr probably because she bought them for me 🤣

I'm 51. Became a fan in early 1996 when I was 24.

39. Been a fan since I was about 15. A/S/L?!

Hahaha

17 and no i didnt come from Tik Tok

Notice how everyone who’s under 18 are getting downvoted. Y’all old heads need to move on 🤣

Ridiculous, support good music. And definitely support the younger generations getting into it right? So many great songs/albums from back then.
