Analysis of White Pony inlay.

Inlay from “White Pony” by Deftones

Deftones are a 5 piece rock group originating from Sacramento, California. Consisting of Chino Moreno (vocals, guitars), Stephen Carpenter (guitars), Chi Cheng (bass, vocals), Abe Cunningham (drums) and Frank Delegado (turntables) they fuse together a blend of high octane metal and emotional hardcore resulting in a unique signature style all of their own. To date they have released three albums: Adrenaline, Around the Fur, White Pony (from which this inlay is taken) with a new self titled album being released soon. They tend to focus on themes relating to love and relationships, friendship and human nature. Coming from a large city but having deep roots within family and regarding friendship as very important they have a sense of grounded balance to their musical output. Whilst the lyrics are at some times ambiguous they never fail to be powerful and aggressive and always convey the point in a forceful manner.
