When something like this happens, it's definitely a bonus, for us to be appreciated in that way.YOU'VE SAID IN THE PAST THAT STEPHEN SORT OF TOOK A BACKSEAT WHEN YOU RECORDED YOUR PREVIOUS ALBUM, GORE, SO HOW DID YOU ENSURE THAT EVERY SINGLE BANDMATE WAS FULLY ENGAGED AND IN IT THIS TIME AROUND?It was a lot of hard work. That's the biggest accolade that we can give ourselves — just the sheer fact that we're still able to do this and enjoy doing this. After so many records, yeah, it is pretty crazy that we can still do that. That's the most important thing — you have to enjoy doing it. When we go into making a record, the first thing we try to do is make ourselves happy and have fun doing it.
We'd just get in a room and everyone would make noise. But with this record, without having a timeframe in mind, we'd meet up and have sessions every month, which lasted a week-and-a-half to two weeks. I think his perception would be that he finally accepted the songs that we were doing, and he was willing to go along with the program. I wouldn't say that he wasn't involved in that record, but it wasn't until the 11th hour that he really got on the same page as everybody else. So I feel like if we did spend more time on it, Stephen would have eventually come around. With that record, we just had a timeline—we had an idea in mind of when we wanted to get it finished by.
You can hear that on the record, a drum-forward-sounding approach. We weren't quite that deep into it yet, but at that time, in the late Nineties and early 2000s, as a collective, we were pretty influenced by a lot of what was happening with electronic, beat-driven music. We had the name of the record and we were writing songs for it. WHEN DID THAT CONCEPT — THE LITERAL INVERSION OF WHITE PONY — FIRST COME UP? I REMEMBER YOU RELEASING A SONG OF THE SAME NAME WITH YOUR PROJECT CROSSES.Oh yeah, we did have a song called "Black Stallion"! The name of the record and the idea was thought up 20-something years ago when we were writing White Pony. We basically worked on it together in the same room, and I think that added to the camaraderie and allowed everyone to be on the same page, for sure.Video of Deftones – Change (In The House of Flies) – Official VideoI WANTED TO ASK YOU ABOUT BLACK STALLION, AS WELL. This record was a lot more of that than doing the writing online or whatever.
It was cool to have certain individuals be a part of this who might even have been influenced by the White Pony record. Plus, I could guess that a couple of the artists that made the record were pretty young when White Pony came out and maybe weren't making music themselves yet. I think it's kind of cool we waited for so long because there's so much more of a palette to pull. Unfortunately, we weren't able to pull it together at the time, but fortunately, after twenty-something years, we re-approached the idea, and we were able to make it happen.
That's always been my wheelhouse, stuff that bridges that gap between melodies and drumbeats. Also, all the early New Wave stuff, from OMD to Depeche Mode. That music has always spoken to me. I usually go back to stuff like Afrika Bambaata and a lot of old breakdancing music — stuff even from fifth, sixth grade.
Let me have a think and I'll text you a couple records from newer artists I've been listening to lately. They've been a constant influence in pretty much all the music I've made throughout my life, I think. It was so brand new to me because all of this early electronic music had all these romantic lyrics and things that, to me, sounded so odd, but really spoke to me and made sense.
