The album was certified gold by the RIAA in 1999, and was later certified platinum in 2011.

Background

Around the Fur has been described as alternative metal, [1] [2] [3] nu metal, [4] [5] and post-hardcore. [6] Guitarist Stephen Carpenter has since reflected, "We didn't really pay much attention to that. I remember when these subgenre names didn't exist. It was just metal. So I don't think we made a decision to step away [from nu metal] – we've never paid attention to what anyone else was doing. We just did what we thought was right, and tried to make a killer album." [7] The producer Terry Date stated that the band wanted to become "more sophisticated" with Around the Fur. [7] Lyrically, much of the album addresses topics such as juvenile perception, existential angst, sex, romance, violence, the death of loved ones, and break-ups. [8]

The band had gathered inspiration off of their own internal issues and personal incidents, as the four of them rented an apartment in Southern Seattle whilst they were writing and recording the album. [9] The singer Chino Moreno and Carpenter recall the band often drank and partied frequently, even recalling random moments of writing where the bassist Chi Cheng and Carpenter would smoke marijuana frequently together and write riffs together; the two later included their voicemail of them smoking out of a bong as a hidden track between "MX" and "Damone". [10]

It was the second album to feature Frank Delgado under additional personnel; he eventually joined the band officially in 1999. The song "Headup" featured additional vocals by Max Cavalera of Soulfly.

The album cover was shot by the photographer Rick Kosick during a late-night party in Seattle where the band was recording. Upon seeing the candid photo of a woman, the band decided that they wanted to use it as the album cover. Kosick was unsure who the woman was, so the band had to find and track her down to obtain permission to use the photo, which she eventually granted. [11] The woman appearing on the cover is Lisa M. Hughes, a friend of Stephen Carpenter. [12] Hughes spoke publicly about the cover for the first time during the album's 20th anniversary in 2017. [13] [14] Moreno has since expressed his dislike of the cover, calling it "horrible". [15]

Composition and lyrics

In a 1998 interview with Chart magazine, Moreno commented, "When we went in to make this record, we really didn't have a set idea of what we wanted to come out with." However, he felt that the album "fell into place" once the band had settled into the studio. [16] The band expanded its sound, spending more time with the producer Terry Date, and giving more thought to the album's production. Abe Cunningham varied his drum sound and experimented by using different types of snare drums on almost every track. [17] The album was praised for its loud-soft dynamics, the flow of the tracks, Moreno's unusual vocals, and the strong rhythm section grooves created by Cunningham and Cheng. [16] [18] [19]

Release

The album was highly anticipated, and propelled the band to fame in the alternative metal scene on the strength of radio and MTV airplay for the singles "My Own Summer (Shove It)" and "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)". [20] The album's title track was also released as a promotional single. Around the Fur sold 43,000 copies in its first week of release, and entered the Billboard 200 at No. 29 (its peak position), remaining on the chart for 17 weeks. [19] [21] Around the Fur went on to reach RIAA gold status on June 24, 1999, and platinum status on June 7, 2011. [22]

When the album was released on Spotify, it contained an alternate version of "Headup" running a full minute longer than the original release. [23]

Touring

In May 1997, while Around the Fur was in the process of being recorded, the band performed two concerts at Bojangles in Sacramento. These were their first shows since December 1996, with the band debuting several Around the Fur songs that were still in the demo stages. Their next performance was on September 11, 1997, at The Press Club in San Francisco. This concert saw the debut of live staples "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)" and "My Own Summer (Shove It)". [24] [25] Following the album's release in October 1997, Deftones toured North America/Europe with the Sacramento bands Far and Will Haven. [26] The tour continued into early 1998. [26] Later in 1998, they made appearances at the Warped Tour (in the United States, New Zealand and Australia), Pinkpop Festival, Roskilde Festival and Ozzfest, [26] as well as releasing a live EP on April 10, 1998. In September 1998, Deftones toured with Red Hot Chili Peppers, who were playing their first shows in over six years with the guitarist John Frusciante. [27]

The album generally received positive reviews from music critics. Greg Corrao of CMJ New Music Monthly remarked in November 1997, "This hard-hitting noise-fest finds the band once again furthering the cause of riff-heavy, bludgeoning rock also championed by the likes of Soundgarden, Helmet and Kyuss", [35] further adding that, "Those heavy sensibilities are paired with vocalist Chino Moreno's yearning whine, allowing the band to create [their] own kind of sub-metal." [35] He concluded his review by asserting that, "With Around the Fur, Deftones have carved out their own place in heavy music's hard beaten path toward the year 2000." [35] In a retrospective review, AllMusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote: "Deftones tap into the same alternative metal vibe as Korn and L7, and while they don't have catchy riffs or a fully developed sound, Around the Fur suggests they're about to come into their own". [1] James P. Wisdom of Pitchfork described the songs from the album as "intense, harsh tunes", [31] while Punknews.org thought that the album "showcased a band aware of their flaws, structure and lyrical approach, and thus achieved an overall great improvement in said areas". [32] Robert Christgau was less receptive, dismissing it as a "dud". [36]

In 2015, the critic Saby Reyes-Kulkarni of Diffuser stated that "[o]n their landmark second album, Deftones infused elements of new wave and shoegaze to define their future direction. Alt-metal would never be the same." [37] Reyes-Kulkarni observed that the album "captures the first full blossoming of the duality that has come to define the Sacramento quintet's musical identity" and "set a new standard for '90s alt-metal and opened doors to what's possible when bands find the motivation to get heavy away from the brutish impulses that typically drive aggressive music." [38] He further noted that, while the album "sounds undeniably thicker and heavier" than the band's debut album Adrenaline , Chino Moreno's new wave and post-punk influences became increasingly evident: "On Around the Fur, Moreno's love of new wave groups like Depeche Mode and the Cure began to rear its head in earnest." [38]

At the 1998 Kerrang! Awards, Around the Fur won the award for "Best Album". [39] Metal Hammer included it as one of the ten best albums released in 1997. [40] They also listed it as being one of the best metal albums released between 1996 and 1997. [41] In 2017, Loudwire named it as the third best hard rock album of 1997. [42] When Kerrang! ranked the eight albums Deftones had released as of May 2020, Around the Fur was placed at number four. [43]

Moreno said in 2021 that Around The Fur is his favorite Deftones album. [44]

Nu metal is a subgenre of alternative metal that combines elements of heavy metal music with elements of other music genres such as hip hop, alternative rock, funk, industrial, and grunge. Nu metal rarely features guitar solos or other displays of musical technique; the genre is heavily syncopated and based on guitar riffs. Many nu metal guitarists use seven-string guitars that are down-tuned to produce a heavier sound. DJs are occasionally featured in nu metal to provide instrumentation such as sampling, turntable scratching and electronic background music. Vocal styles in nu metal include singing, rapping, screaming and growling. Nu metal is one of the key genres of the new wave of American heavy metal.

The band spent time recording the album from April to November 2008 at The Spot in Los Angeles. The November 2008 car accident of bassist Chi Cheng forced the band to initially hold off on releasing the album, however, and they later shelved the album indefinitely in a creative decision to move forward. With Cheng in a coma, Deftones recruited former Quicksand bassist Sergio Vega and released Diamond Eyes instead in 2010. In the years that followed, the band has had mixed feelings about finishing and officially releasing Eros at some point down the road.
