a date with destiny

YOU’D ALREADY WORKED WITH DEFTONES ON ADRENALINE AND AROUND THE FUR. HOW HAD YOU SEEN THEM GROW?

“They were really excited in the beginning, because they said that they now had a ‘brand name producer’. Ha ha ha! I felt like a box of cereal or something! But it’s alright, it was good. As was typical with a lot of younger bands that I worked with, the first record was all energy, very little thought. The second record, more thought was put into it, they they still have the energy, so they never lost that. But the energy versus thought ratio shifted a little bit more toward thought, and then on , even more so.”
