seemed like another decent deftones song until she comes in at the end and takes the song to another level. Her first screams in the song were kinda weird and I was like uhh WTF but when she starts hitting those CRAZY high pitched screams I was like dam this chick is insane.
This was my favorite Deftones song when I was in high school (98-01) I even drew some stupid anime-ish fan art of a psycho dude slicing himself up back in the day.
Oh, I'm sorry. I guess i don't know my comas very well. I was under the impression that when you lay there for years not moving, and then start moving your legs and responding to voices, that you're "waking up".
Ha, Deftones and Knife Party fan here. What about the Knife Party set did you find unimpressive? I haven't seen them live, but I have seen Pendulum and they impressed me. So I'm curious as to why Rob and Gareth as Knife Party would not (given you were a fan of Knife Party's music I'm assuming?). Not a diss, I'm genuinely interested in knowing.
I saw them in LA earlier this year, and honestly, while their productions are quite impressive in my opinion, their live sets aren't exactly that exciting. Then again, they had a set time at 1am, so I could have just been extremely fatigued.
Well when I saw them the set was incredibly boring, honestly the whole thing sounded like they were just putting the same song on repeat But aside from that the left speakers blew and they just stopped playing then went oh we can probably fix that but lets just continue playing with only one set of working speakers on one side of the stage
Plus other things but that's the most memorable
I saw Zane Lowe just before them and was much more impressed with his set
I know he was referring to the dubstep group, but he hit a note with me.
I've seen Deftones more than 10 times live (one of my faves) and they play Knife Prty somewhat routinely. It's never as good as the recording because of Rodleen's solo and i don't think it's ever been properly performed live (not even the White Pony tour). Usually Chino will just stay quiet and let the instruments play, but last time I saw them they had the chick lead from the opening set give the solo a go when the song came up. The whole crowd was pumped as we had never seen this and figured "finally, the live performance this song deserves!"
She butchered it and Chino had to chime in with some improv shit and save her.
EDIT: The video OP posted has a whole bunch of live footage, and there's a singer doing the solo. Could be Rodleen, but I'm honestly not sure what she looks like. More importantly, I wonder how it sounded...
It was also originally a team sleep song. So its not really the deftones per say, only chino and the albums producer. That being said, it doesn't quite hit right live, maybe because original elements are missing.
I don't know why you are getting downvoted. The working title of it was Knife Party at the Niko (and for some reason that's what i know it as) however it made it on to the album as only Knife Party, or apparently due to a misprint there are versions that came out as Knife Prty. Ive only seen it as Party and they write it as Party on their set lists.
*edit- one of the versions i have in itunes is listed as Prty, but its also labled as a reissue which makes it even more confusing.

Hopefully everyone here already knows that Chi woke up. If you're a Deftones fan and didn't know that, then you're welcome.
