hey welcome back to my series on
Deftones white pony this video is about
Elite all right the next song is Elite I
love this song
yeah when you're ripe you'll be out of
control bleed out of control
foreign
[Music]
before you try
foreign
[Music]
[Applause]
foreign
[Music]
foreign
together
[Music]
yeah that song reminds me more of like
adrenaline style the vocal effects on
Chino's voice are so cool here right
like so I don't know the types of
Screams I know that there's like a whole
thing in the middle community of like
different types of screaming different
uh parts of your vocal cords that you're
accessing and you're distorting in
different ways and stuff so I don't know
what kind of
screaming this is but it's you know it's
pretty harsh and high-pitched sounding
to me
but I like it I like his screams a lot
uh I like the rhythm of this when you're
uh you'll bleed out of control you'll be
out of control because you'll bleed out
of control it's like it it Loops a
little out of how do I put this
it's not like when you're ripe you'll
bleed out of control
you'll bleed out of control which would
be like repeating it at an even integer
it it starts over in the middle of the
phrase so there's this like a flow to it
you'll bleed out of control you'll bleed
out of control I always really liked
that
this riff
um
so these are power chords right
ah the tritone okay no wonder all right
so this is this is a pretty dark dark
riff with a lot of attitude
because it's very it this hey you know
what
this guitar riff
is kind of is kind of in locrian you
could say that if you wanted to if you
wanted to be one of those like
hardcore music theory mode people
you could say it's in locrian
[Music]
[Applause]
so that's pretty metal
it's got all those really lowered notes
right if if this riff were in the minor
scale it'd go
[Music]
I really enjoy it it's it's satisfying
it's constantly moving
and listen to how Abe's drumming is kind
of mimicking uh
uh Chino's vocal rhythm
played out of control right
okay so then we got
no
so then the Riff changes a bit that's
pretty weird
is that right yeah
so instead of
that guys
[Music]
okay so then we got Chino just screaming
at us in a very even Cadence
you like what does he say
you're into depression because that's
the second verse but whatever
you're into depression
because it matches your eyes where
everything's just very like
and it just feels so relentless to me
uh like he's gonna just blow his voice
out like he's just everything is coming
out
Abe is just holding it down here but
then he gets more creative a little bit
later
um
yes yes Muir it's this is a like one of
the simplest Abe drum beats I've heard
but it it works there is something kind
of just in your face really
straightforward about this song just
like I'm gonna scream at you about being
Elite
you know about uh trying to reach some
sort of level of fame or uh notoriety or
status
freaking love that Phil
oh my God
you got a nice details nice little flam
at the beginning of that
okay this part's very dissonant
like I don't know if I'm gonna be able
to figure out what those chords are
because there's a lot of distortion too
down
those two notes are in it but in the
middle
let's just say it's that because it does
kind of have that weird off sound like
an augmented chord would
maybe are you saying walk with me
that part is so
crazy they're just trying to find stuff
that sounded I think dramatic bold
dissonant fucked up you know like
foreign
[Music]
yeah it's just it's out there
[Music]
I love the effects on his voice here
it's pretty heavy how can we even
understand him I feel like I can though
another one
with honey
and the effect also sounds as if he's
singing in a cord like
like maybe he's singing this one and
then those are also in there
and the cord underneath is like
how fun is that okay someone said that's
a slide oh
but so Dynamic Punchy that accent
[Music]
that's it for this video stay tuned for
the next track on the album
