While the band is deeply rooted in metal, Deftones draws on a constantly-changing blend of influences. It draws on genres like alternative metal, post-punk, post-hardcore, alternative rock, stoner rock, hard rock, art rock, experimental rock, funk metal, and nu-metal to create a one-of-a-kind musical style.

Frontman and founding member Chino Moreno's specific and unique lyrical style is often described as ambiguous and indirect. The band's legacy is frequently compared to alternative rock group Radiohead, with some in the media dubbing Deftones "The Radiohead of metal.” Depeche Mode, Faith No More, Afrika Bambaataa, The Cure, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Duran Duran, Thompson Twins, and Hum are just a few of Moreno’s well-known influences.

Over the last 30 years, Deftones have released seven studio albums, including three platinums, and one gold certificate for its bestselling self-titled album. From humble beginnings, it’s incredible to see the journey that the band has made.

Stephen Carpenter, guitarist of the band, taught himself the instrument while confined to a wheelchair at the age of 15 after he was hit by a car while skateboarding. When his childhood friends, vocalist Chino Moreno and drummer Abe Cunningham, learned he could play, the three began jamming together, and soon formed a group.

The group featured a rotating cast of instrumentalists in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, as Cunningham temporarily departed and bassist Chi Cheng joined. With Cunningham’s return in 1993, the band finalized its lineup. Deftones signed a recording contract with Maverick Records and released the first album, Adrenaline, a few years later, in 1995.

The group’s sophomore effort, Around the Fur, dropped in 1997 and soared up the charts. The singles from the album became the band's first songs to be certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

The band found continued success with the third album, White Pony, in 2000. White Pony marked a transition away from the band’s earlier, more traditional metal sound to a progressive, experimental style. The band enjoyed the most prominent commercial success with the lead single, "Change (In the House of Flies)."

Deftones released a self-titled album in 2003, marking the band’s fourth studio effort. Deftones was a darling of critics, but it failed to generate the same commercial success the band saw with White Pony.

Deftones' released its fifth album, Saturday Night Wrist, was released in 2006. Again, the album garnered much critical acclaim, but personal tensions and creative differences among band members impacted the production. Some of these issues inspired the songs included on the album.

In 2008, Deftones was at work on the next album, "Eros, tragedy struck. A severe traffic accident in Santa Clara, CA, left bassist Cheng comatose, leading to Cheng's eventual death in 2013. Sergio Vega replaced the bassist in 2009.

Deftones released its sixth album, Diamond Eyes, in 2010. In promotion of the new album, Deftones embarked on a triple-headline tour. Alice in Chains and Mastodon were the other headliners, and the tour encompassed many major North American cities.

Koi No Yokan, the band's seventh album, dropped in 2012, followed by Gore in 2016. Both albums highlighted the band's increasingly experimental shift in style and received high critical praise.

Deftones released its ninth album, Ohms, in September 2020. The album received significant critical acclaim for the return to the band's original sound. At the same time, the band was scheduled to begin a joint tour with Gojira, which was ultimately postponed twice due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In October 2020, the band announced a 20th-anniversary reissue of White Pony, scheduled for release in December of that same year. The special reissue edition was initially packaged along with Black Stallion, a companion remix album featuring guest performances by artists DJ Shadow, Mike Shinoda, and Robert Smith.

In March 2022, an official announcement was made that bassist Sergio Vega had left the band in early 2021.

As well as producing several critically acclaimed albums, the band has a Grammy Award under its belt for Best Metal Performance in 2001 for its song “Elite.” Additionally, Deftones also received Album of the Year at the Revolver Golden Gods Awards for Koi No Yokan.

Deftones has spent a large proportion of its career touring locally, internationally, and worldwide.

Live reviews

What a night! The band opened with "Headup" from their sophomore album, Around the Fur, then dove straight into "My Own Summer". These two tracks made me super happy because they were some of my absolute favorites when I was an angry teenager. LOL. (I guess I still kind of am today.)

Just after those two older songs, they floored the crowd with the opening track from Koi No Yokan - "Swerve City," followed by two more from White Pony - "Digital Bath," and "Elite." The former being a sonic landscape of pure magic and the latter being an absolute bone-crushing performance. (Although I will say the vocoder part on that track got on my nerves a bit since it sounded like it was overpowering the rest of the instruments.)

To my surprise, they only played one track from the new album, Gore, which was "The Phantom Bride," though it was hauntingly beautiful. (I was really hoping for Prayers/Triangles - but it was still great!)

This was followed by another slower song, "You've Seen the Butcher" - which is just a brutally heavy (almost jazzy) tune from the album Diamond Eyes.

Another Diamond Eyes track was next - "Rocket Skates" - which was arguably the most fun and energetic of the entire set in my opinion. The chorus, "GUNS! RAZORS! KNIVES! FUCK WITH ME!" showed on little LED panels behind the band - it was so cool to watch and sing along.

Another slow burner from Koi No Yokan, "Rosemary," followed. I love this song with its plodding intensity, soaring chorus, and absolutely devastating breakdown at the end.

A crowd favorite from White Pony (probably their most popular album) followed, which was extremely intense with the screams in the middle of the track. Man, HOW DOES CHINO DO THAT?!?! I know it was a woman on the album, but I swear I we witnessed him throw an absolutely blood-curdling shriek right toward the end of the song. WOW.

The band did something sneaky next. The played the first verse of "Rivière" from Saturday Night Wrist before stomping through the heavier part of the end of that song. Again, I was a little disappointed (Why not "Hole in the Earth"? Darn. Next time.) Still, very cool.

Two more Deftones classics followed from White Pony - "Change (In the House of Flies)" and "Back to School (Mini Maggit)". These aren't my favorites - I got really tired of "Change" when the band blew up in the early 2000s, but the still jammed hard, so nothing to complain about their performance.

The last two songs were "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)" - which is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE SONGS - and "Minerva," - from the self-titled album - which is my best friend's favorite song. Both were absolutely wonderful; the crowd was absolutely insane during the last song.

Then Chino dropped his guitar. The stage went dark and they walked off stage... the air was so thick and you could just feel something very special was about to happen.

Then we saw the bassist sneak back to his spot... it was an encore! The evening closed with "Teething" from the Crow 2 Soundtrack. Folks, let me tell you THEY. KILLED. THIS. SONG. It was amazing. I have long loved this track and it was the absolute perfect way to end the night.

Overall, I wish we'd heard more stuff from the new album, Gore, and my wife REAAAAALLLLY wanted them to play the title track "Diamond Eyes" from their sixth album.

But all-in-all I'm a huge fan and that will never change! I absolutely loved the concert. Chino, Abe, Stef and the rest of the band were all incredible and I can't wait to see them again!

Amazing performance by Deftones. Three trapped tigers and thrice sounded great as well. Rise Against had their hands full closing out the show after deftones just killed it. I am suprised they didnt just let deftones close every night. No offense to rise against but coming after a band thats been around as long as deftones would be tough for anybody. They sounded okay, Mid Florida Ampitheatre is a tough one because its built almost in a dome atmosphere essentially making it a big as subwoofer. So bass and drums kinda carry abit over guitars and vocals. Set wise Deftones felt a little short, almost rushed mainly due to Tampa curfew. But I am a Deftones fan since the beginning so ofcourse I want to here 30 songs from their catalog everytime. Thrice really blew me away. They really havent lost any steps since being away for abit. Every song was crisp and clear. You could tell they were really enjoying themselves and trying like hell to take in all the time they were given. Three trapped tigers were also a nice treat. It makes me wonder what these guys could do if they were to add a vocalist in the mix. Being strictly instrumental is tough to do especially opening for bands like Rise Against and Deftones. But that being said those guys were juggernauts on their respective instruments so that has to be acknowledged and appreciated by fans of any genre. Overall solid show and interesting tour pairing. Both deftones and rise against probably gained some new ears for their music so it was a win win for both bands.

Seeing the one-of-a-kind band Deftones in action was an amazing sight indeed. This five-piece put on a mostly flawless show, except for having pretty bad sound quality on the first song which was fixed by the second. Their unique sound known as 'dream-metal' to some was a mixture of dream pop melodies and atmospheric vocals with heavier riffs that ranged from the soft and surreal sounds of White Pony to the nu-metal influenced aggression of their first two albums, which has since matured into the intelligent stylings of Diamond Eyes. Anyways, due to being in the seats (even though they were good seats) I couldn't get a good look at how they were playing, though at least it sounded pretty spot-on. The only thing I didn't care for was the MC who only did some live playing but used a lot of background tracks as well. Besides that, the show was perfect, especially in terms of the setlist as its been a long time I've known as much of a band's set as here. They opened with "Rocket Skates" before playing "Diamond Eyes", "Be Quiet and Drive", "Digital Bath", and "You've Seen the Butcher" all in a row, making the most perfect run of my favorite tracks. Then for the second half they covered all their older material with "Engine No. 9", "Change", "Root", and finally closing with my first favorite song "7 Words". Unfortunately they didn't play "Passenger", their cover of "Simple Man", or their song "Mein" which features Serj (perfect guest appearence opportunity) but I won't complain about their excellent show.

Deftones have been around for longer than most realise, yet one look at their mammoth crowd gathered beneath Reading's main stage would be a good indication to the reputation this alt-metal band have achieved. Masters of a difficult genre known as dream metal, the quintet kick off proceedings with a note perfect rendition of 'Diamond Eyes' and the crowd instantly begin to thrash and move along to the surrealistic rock vibes.

Lead vocalist Chino Merino is clearly enjoying himself up onstage as he dances around to the opening beats of 'My Own Summer' as his tight band play the instrumentals at blistering pace. He conducts the masses in a singalong, and it did not matter if you knew the music or not, there was a wonderful feeling of unison.

A number of the cult hits were included such as 'Be Quiet and Drive' and 'Hexagram' yet it was a sublime rendition of their very first single '7 Words' that really brought the house down. The band gave everything to this performance and for a moment Merino and co stood to soak up the Reading atmosphere and appreciate how far they had come since the first single had been released in 1997.

Deftones are a drop of much needed relief in a sea of Californian music. The band are metal heads: they specialise in alternative heavy metal, unusual for Californians. They are an incredibly talented bunch, who are unique in that they have achieved great crossovers with Rock and Metal, and even the occasional Pop. Their sound has been described as ‘Dream Metal’ by some, due to its mix of dream pop melodies with more aggressive metal and rock chords. Deftones mix atmospheric vocals with pumping, hard core instrumentals to great success. They are a force to be reckoned with on stage: the crowd was crazy for the surrealist rock vibes the band was giving off. The venue was packed and a mosh pit had soon formed, with various thrashing and jumping going on at full force. The lead vocalist was powerful and loved the audience, often getting them revved up and shouting out to us. Classics such as ‘Diamond Eyes’, ‘My Own Summer’, ‘Passenger’ and ‘Change’ were all performed and all received great crowd reactions, real highlights of the show.

I went for AFI - had seen some bad reviews of their live stuff in the past so was a little worried but they totally killed it, hope they tour UK soon.

The deftones however were a different story; my parents were there for them, however we ended up leaving early because it was 1) so obnoxiously loud that I had to wear my headphones to dull it even slightly 2) the crowd was aggressive and throwing beer everywhere 3) the songs weren't really my parents favourites and the sound wasn't great.

I can tell they're good performers, I just think a mixture of the acoustics of the room and the sheer volume ruined it a bit. The crowd also. But I guess if you like a bit of danger in a crowd then its right up your street

They skipped out on the only other show I was supposed to see them back in 2003 (Summer Sanitarium in Minneapolis). I attended this show with certain expectations and the show went pretty much exactly as I thought it might. They played a good number of hits and bunch of stuff no one but a hardcore Deftones fan would recognize. I was a little bummed they didn't play Lotion but since they played Around the Fur and My Own Summer, I was happy (my favorite album obviously being Around the Fur). One aspect that exceeded expectations was the light show...constant lights during almost all of the show. It made the mundane middle of the show interesting and decently fun to watch.

Deftones always rocks. A lot of energy and the crowd going wild.

Chino is really good front man.

On the other arena Anhembi is the worst place that I watched a concert.

The organization fail as usual in concerts at this place. I took 45,minutes in the line to check my ticket.

They implement a process to validate if the tickets are original, where every single people must present a document end a credit card. Total fail. The lines are huge and took more than 20 minutes just to check the ticket.

The sound was very low and apparently the PAs in the middle of the crowd seems to be turned off.

The concert was really great.

The show was a long journey through the band's discography except themes from their most recent album: Gore.

The set was really powerful, even though the stage sound experienced some technical issues on the first two songs.

The Full set list included.

Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)

My Own Summer (Shove It)

Around the Fur

Swerve City

Digital Bath

What Happened to You?

Hole in the Earth

Change (In the House of Flies)

Diamond Eyes

You've Seen the Butcher

Deftones were MAD! Chino owned the stage and was a really good presence up there. They sounded better live than on their albums in my opinion. The only gripe i have is that it was a SHIT venue at Metro City Perth, people were struggling to see because its a multiple story building there are pillars and columns everywhere, the staff were just plain rude and lacked any sort of personality! Would love to see Deftones again, maybe with Max Cavalera with them.

About deftones.

Deftones is an American alternative metal band from Sacramento, California, U.S. Formed in 1988, the band was founded by Chino Moreno (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Stephen Carpenter (lead guitar), Abe Cunningham (drums) and Dominic Garcia (bass). During the group's first five years, the band's lineup changed several times, but stabilized in 1993 when Cunningham rejoined the group after his departure in 1990; by this time, Chi Cheng was the band's bassist. The lineup remained stable for fifteen years, with the exception of keyboardist and turntablist Frank Delgado being added in 1999. The band is known as one of the most experimental groups to have come from the alternative metal music scene. They are sometimes dubbed "the Radiohead of metal" by critics. Deftones have released eight albums since their inception. After the lineup settled in 1993, the band secured a recording contract with Maverick Records, and subsequently released their debut album, Adrenaline, in 1995. Promoting the album by touring exhaustively with other bands in the scene, Deftones managed to gain a dedicated fan base through word of mouth. Their sophomore album, Around the Fur, was released in 1997. The album and its singles reached chart positions, and the album was the band's first to receive certification from the RIAA. The band found even further success with their third album, White Pony, in 2000. It showed a transition away from the band's earlier sound into a more experimental direction. Its lead single, "Change (In the House of Flies)", is the group's most commercially successful single, and the album track "Elite" won a Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. White Pony was the band's first of three albums to be certified platinum in the United States. Their self-titled fourth album was released in 2003. While the group's critical success continued, sales proved to be lackluster compared to White Pony. The follow-up, Saturday Night Wrist, was released in 2006 after a temporary falling out within the band due to creative tensions. Its completion was also delayed by personal issues within the band, some of which influenced its material. In 2008, while Deftones were working on an album tentatively titled Eros, Cheng was involved in a traffic collision. As a result, he was left in a minimally conscious state until his death in 2013 of cardiac arrest. During that time, Deftones halted production on Eros. Quicksand bassist Sergio Vega, who had filled in as a touring member to replace Cheng, later became his permanent replacement. The band released Diamond Eyes and Koi No Yokan in 2010 and 2012 respectively. Their latest release, titled Gore, was released in 2016.

System of a Down + Deftones Announce First of Its Kind Show at Historic Venue

System of a Down and Deftones have announced a first of its kind show at a historic venue in California set to take place this summer.

The standalone concert, headlined by the two bands, will take place on Aug. 17 at San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, making it the first-ever ticketed concert to take place there, according to Pollstar . The Mars Volta , Viagra Boys and VOWWS are set to perform during the show as well.

Golden Gate Park has been home to the annual Outside Lands festival several times in the past, and is where the event will take place this year from Aug. 9 through the 11. Most of the stages will be taken down at the end of the weekend, but one of the main stages will remain, which is the one System and Deftones will play on the following weekend.

"For the first time ever, a stand-alone, once in a lifetime event at the historic Golden Gate Park, System of a Down and Deftones," a video graphic posted by both bands reads.

Fans can sign up for the bands' mailing lists for early access to tickets, and then the general sale starts this Friday, April 12 at 1PM ET.

System of a Down Will Only Play Two Shows in 2024

This Golden Gate Park concert with Deftones marks System of a Down's second performance of 2024, with the first taking place later this month (April 27) at Las Vegas' Sick New World Festival .

Previously, frontman Serj Tankian told Revolver that Sick New World would "likely" be System's only performance in 2024, as touring isn't his main priority anymore.

"After years of doing it and the travel that's involved, it's one of those things where it's not the top priority on my list in life," the vocalist said.

Golden Gate Park Plans to Host Annual Concerts in the Future

While SOAD and Deftones will play the first ticketed concert at Golden Gate Park, Allen Scott of Another Planet Entertainment , the promoter that hosts Outside Lands, said that they already have next year's post-festival concert in the works.

“We wanted to host something that is unique and rare... Not just an artist that’s on tour and it’s another stop for them,” he told Pollstar.

"System of a Down is very particular in what concerts they do and how many they do. Deftones, who are from Northern California, are bigger than they’ve ever been in the history of the band. It felt like really good timing to put those two together, and then add a few bands to play prior to them... We wanted to put together a lineup that was not only unique but culturally relevant.”

Deftones Finally Share New Album Release Date in 2024

Deftones finally shares a new album release date in the Spring or Summer of 2024. This article collected the latest interviews and details about Deftones ‘ upcoming tenth studio album.

After, the Deftones ‘ latest studio album, Ohms , was released in 2020. But it appears the band is already working on their next album. On the Gnostic Academy podcast YouTube channel , guitarist Stephen Carpenter said that the band is working on a new album with producer Nick Raskulinecz, with a release date 2024.

“ Ohms ” is the ninth album released by American alternative metal band Deftones via Reprise Records on September 20, 2020. Terry Date wrote the album, marking their first collaboration since the release of Eros and their final album with bassist Sergio Vega, who left the band at the beginning of 2021.

Deftones also announced they will return to their Dia De Los Deftones event this year. Turnstile, Phantogram, Freddie Gibbs, Audrey, Destroy Boys, Provoker, and Cold Gawd will perform at the event on November 5 in San Diego, CA.

During this interview, Deftones guitarist Stephen Carpenter talked about the specific time for the new Deftones album :

When is the release date of Deftones’ new album? 

“Just in the last couple of months, really – two or three months; well, maybe a little longer now, really; February is when we started … to work on new material for a new record. It’s going good now. It was a little slow at first, but it always is; dragging our feet ain’t nothing new. But we’ve got stuff up and going now, and we’re on a good little momentum at the moment. And we hope to have it all done and out by next spring or summer [ 2024 ]. There’s nothing official – no official date yet – but that’s our goal.

Stephen Carpenter also talked about how Deftones produce their song:

It’s a combination of things. Most often, everything stems from us just jamming out some ideas, messing around, and someone comes up with something that maybe someone else or everyone else likes. And then we kind of just focus in on that for a little bit.

Who is the new person and it’s going to affect good on Deftones?

That’s what Nick’s great at doing, too. Where we could just sit and jam aimlessly and plow through idea after idea without even stopping to recognize them, he’s great at saying, ‘Hey, that idea is really cool. Let’s try to work on that for a minute. And then that other idea might be really cool with that one. Let’s try putting them together,’ and stuff like that. So that’s what’s awesome about him. He’s like an unofficial band member at that point and good at giving us direction where we don’t normally do that well on our own. I mean, we do it, but it’s a much slower process on our own.”

Deftones ‘ new album will be the band’s first without bassist Sergio Vega, who performed on the previous four albums until leaving the band in 2021. Deftones live fill-in Fred Sablan, although the band has never confirmed a formal successor for Vega.

In addition, Deftones frontman Chino Moreno working on another project ††† (Crosses) . Also, the new album called God Bless, I Love U, Delete will be released on October 13th, 2023.

Deftones Biography

Gomez’s Ben Ottewell & Ian Ball Announce 2024 Australian Tour

By David James Young

Ben Ottewell and Ian Ball – the co-founders, co-lead vocalists and chief songwriters of Gomez – have announced an 11-date Australian tour, set to take place from late October into mid-November 2024. The tour, in which Ottewell and Ball will perform on-stage together as a duo, is to celebrate the 25th anniversaries of both the band’s 1998 debut Bring It On and its 1999 follow-up Liquid Skin .

As is customary with the duo’s tours, they will be supported by longtime collaborator Buddy. In addition to playing his own solo set to open each show, he will also join Ottewell and Ball on-stage during their set for select songs – including songs from the album the trio made under the moniker of Handbags, which is available only on vinyl at the shows themselves.

Gomez – ‘Whippin’ Picadilly’

Bring It On was first released in April of 1998, with Liquid Skin following 17 months later in September 1999. Both albums have gone on to receive platinum certification from the British Phonographic Industry, with Liquid Skin also marking their first top-10 chart position both in the UK and in Australia.

Gomez first toured Australia in 2000 in support of the aforementioned Liquid Skin , and returned frequently throughout the 2000s. Their last tour before undergoing a hiatus was in Australia circa November 2019. COVID years notwithstanding, at least one member of Gomez has toured Australia practically every year for the last two decades – both Ottewell and Ball have toured the country individually as solo artists, playing songs from their own albums as well as Gomez songs.

Coachella 2024: women save the day as festival suffers an identity crisis

Ticket sales might have lagged for the once-unbeatable double weekender but an array of crowd-pleasing female acts made it a worthwhile journey

I t takes a lot of time, money and willpower to make it to Coachella: the desert locale sits three hours from Los Angeles on a good day (five in the case of my drive) and general admission passes for the festival start at $499. Then there’s the cost of lodging, food and booze to consider – no small expense, considering a cup of black coffee at the food court costs $10, a large pizza set campers back $65, and White Claws went for $16. In this economy? Not everyone can do it, and maybe that’s why ticket sales lagged this year amid a less-than-buzzy lineup. In the lead-up to the festival, fans and press alike dubbed 2024 a flop year, with the Daily Beast going so far as to publish a curtain-raiser obit last month with the headline, “Is this the end of Coachella?”

As someone who attended (for free, as press … though I did succumb to the call of the $16 Claw), I can confirm that rumors of Coachella’s demise are a little premature. Yes, there were fewer people. But the diehards still showed up – with a notable exception being the so-called Queen of Coachella, Vanessa Hudgens, who skipped out this year due to her pregnancy.

Some of the attendees I spoke to were there for the fifth, eighth, or 10th time. It’s a tradition they admitted to planning their year around, no matter who plays. One college-age woman I spoke to ahead of the gates opening on Friday night said she had come since childhood with her dad, noting with a straight face that, “He’s an OG. He has a vintage Coachella shirt from 2008.”

But a flop year remains valuable for the feedback it gives us. Remove the noise of a once-in-a-lifetime, Beychella-esque headline performance and you can take stock of the tradition as a whole. What’s working: booking surprise special guests who bring the nostalgia points.

My soul left my body for a moment when Kesha walked out to support Reneé Rapp, altering the opening line of her recession-core banger Tik Tok to “wake up in the morning saying fuck P Diddy,” amid allegations of sexual assault against Sean Combs. Not even a rough onstage tumble that left the promiscuous girl herself Nelly Furtado bloodied kept the special guest from working the crowd at Dom Dolla. It was nice to see J Balvin call in a beaming Will Smith, who joined a cast of dancing green aliens for a rendition of Men in Black, reminding us in the wake of the Oscars slap and whatever Jada’s been up to that he’s ultimately a showman at heart.

One attendee, an influencer-in-her-own-mind type who asked me to film as she delivered a straight-to-camera monologue for TikTok, declared that this year was “for the girls!” I agree, unless said girl was Grimes, whose disastrous, issue-plagued DJ set was ultimately just cut off in a satisfying display of schadenfreude. Or Lana Del Rey, who also did not fare well during her Friday headline set due to constant audio issues and what appeared to be old-fashioned nerves.

But overall, the best of this year’s acts projected girl power, not in the corny, superficial way that’s all too common in pop, but by simply showing up and tearing up. Gwen Stefani climbing on top of stage scaffolding while leading the call-and-response chorus of I’m Just a Girl during No Doubt’s headline set was one of the highest highs of the festival, and Doja Cat’s sapphic mud pit closer alone was worth the price of admission.

Raye, a UK star who’s now on a US ascension, gave early Amy Winehouse during a tight, mid-century styled set. When it came time for Ice Cream Man, a raw and unflinching account of Raye’s sexual assault at the hands of a music producer, she left every woman I could see in my section wiping away tears – myself included – and the many of the men staring solemnly down at their feet, unable to make eye contact.

Coachella is such a well-oiled machine that moments of real emotion can be hard to come by – it’s essentially the music industry’s Disneyland. Raye’s admission served as a rare gasp of authenticity. Ditto for Victoria Monet’s loud and clear call for an end to the genocide in Gaza, a plea that received one of the longest and loudest rounds of applause I heard all weekend. (Levant, a 23-year-old part-Palestinian DJ also roused a crowd with his full-throated call for a free Palestine, and it’s a shame his set conflicted with No Doubt’s reunion.)

The Danish R&B singer Erika de Casier’s early 2pm death slot started with only a dozen or so attendees, but grew into a full crowd as she worked through her polished, 90s-tinged slow jams. Anyone in the mood for rave vibes could be found at the South Korean DJ Peggy Gou’s tent, where she slung remixes while a cast of gender-queer go-go dancers hyped up the audience.

Admittedly I only went to see pop star Sabrina Carpenter because I thought I might get a glimpse of her potential boo Barry Keoghan (I did not), but the nascent star won me over with unadulterated pop girl charisma. And then there was Rapp, who not only brought out Kesha , but also enlisted the cast of The L Word to introduce her show and performed in front of a giant pair of scissors (because, you know, lesbians).

Ice Spice drew so big of a crowd that I couldn’t even enter her tent. I later learned on TikTok that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were there, but I’m glad that rumblings of a Swift guest appearance on stage didn’t materialize. Spice had the opportunity to dominate all by herself, actually keeping her mic on and not relying too heavily on backing vocals, as many performers do.

Other flashes at Coachella defied a categorization or trend – Vampire Weekend fully embracing their goofy dad era, bringing out both Paris Hilton and an Abraham Lincoln impersonator for a game of cornhole while they played the Grateful Dead (their range!), Deftones playing so loudly the vibrations made the porta-potty in the press pen shake (I narrowly avoided disaster), the Tuareg rocker Mdou Moctar jumping into the pit to rock out with the front row, and the fratty-but-fun crowd at Neil Frances (shoutout to Andy, the stranger who danced with me during Music Sounds Better With You).

Coachella’s attendees always skew young (duh), but I got the sense of a generational shift this year. Gen Z has officially taken over, causing a bit of an identity crisis for a tradition that’s long catered to millennial tastes. Though screaming my “woo-hoos” during Blur’s performance of Song 2 added years to my life, the crowd of babies didn’t respond nearly as hard as they should have, and I could tell the bored energy wore on a checked-out Damon Albarn.

Gen Z did show up en masse for the French electronic duo Justice, who I guess now count as a legacy act since they got together 20 years ago. While speaking to a millennial music writer in the backstage press area, I learned that a twentysomething Justice fan told her she loves the group because “all that old shit is new again”. It hit me then that maybe Coachella’s former audience didn’t skip out on this year because it was a flop – we’re just all getting a little too old.
