Deftones

B-Sides & Rarities

Editor's Review:

While most of these songs can still be found on my parents’ hard drive, downloaded from my days as a Napster junkie, the Deftones’ B-Sides & Rarities offers some new, unheard surprises, making it the perfect fan homage. Chino Moreno and Far’s Jonah Matranga deliver a powerful duet on Jawbox’s “Savory,” which is then followed by a cover of the Cocteau Twins’ “Wax and Wane.” However, I’m really not sure if the (hopefully) ironic cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Simple Man” really meshes well with the rest of the tunes. With the exception of a few acoustic versions of their more popular songs, B-Sides & Rarities plays out more like a cover album than anything else, but in no way am I complaining.
