Deftones / Adrenaline

Adrenaline is the platinum-certified debut studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on October 3, 1995, through Maverick Records.

Recorded mostly with producer Terry Date (with Ross Robinson helming the hidden track "Fist"), the album is highly regarded for its raw, aggressive energy, precise rhythmic grooves, and Chino Moreno’s distinct vocal style that jumps from quiet whispers to primal screams. It served as a foundational blueprint for the late-1990s nu-metal and alternative metal movements.
