The sequel, Space Force, which is also a Charles Chilton series, is very good. Better even.

Snakes and Arrows. Arguably their best album.

just been introduced to Deftones by my son, and a band called Chevelle who I'd never heard of. Both really good

Been spinning (literally) some 78s - started with Bill Hayley and Rock around the Clock recorded in 1954 and which was originally intended to be a B side.
With only 30 minutes of studio time left they did the first take direct to a mono tape recorder but Hayley's vocals were too quiet so they did a second take but this time the band was too quiet.
Since the takes were mono they couldn't separate the vocals so a highly skilled engineer physically cut the tapes and spliced them so that the vocal sections were from take 2 and the instrumental middle section was from take 1.
Then played Little Johnny Jones and the Chicago Hound Dogs from 1953, Johnny Jones was an accomplished blues pianist who often played with Muddy Waters and Elmore James, the Chicago Hound Dogs was a studio pseudonym for the players backing Jones who were in fact Elmore James and his backing group.
The A side is a song called Sweet Little Woman with pretty edgy lyrics for 1953!
INTRO SOLO
Got something to tell you, babe, I know you can’t do, you can’t love me and love my buddies, too
When you love ’em, baby, you got to love ’em right, love ’em ever day, babe, and love ’em every night
REFRAIN: But she’s a sweet little woman, don’t you know, sweet little woman, don’t you know
Sweet little woman, I ain’t gon’ tell you no lie
When a man get hairy, you know he needs a shave, when a woman get musty, you know she needs a bathe
REFRAIN: But she’s a sweet little woman, don’t you know, sweet little woman, don’t you know
She’s a sweet little woman, I ain’t gon’ tell you no lie
Squeeze me, squeeze me, babe, and don’t let me fall, put my mule, a-kicking in your stall
REFRAIN: But she’s a sweet little woman, don’t you know, sweet little woman, don’t you know
Sweet little woman, I ain’t gon’ tell you no lie (Spoken: Play your brains out! All, all right!)
SAXOPHONE SOLO
I like your mama, but she won’t do this, I hit her ‘cross the head, with my great big fist
Clock on the shelf, singing tick-tick-tick, your mama in the corner, doin’ I don’t know which
Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, I like your mama, she got too many mens
Ashes to ashes, you know, and sand to sand, every time I see her, she got a brand new man
REFRAIN: But she’s a sweet little woman, don’t you know, sweet little woman, don’t you know
Sweet little woman, I ain’t gon’ tell you no lie

When you listen carefully to them, most old Blues songs are pure unadulterated filth, just proves there's nothing new under the sun, on a different tack, artists like Elmore James were the pioneers of Rock N Roll, Dust My Broom is an absolute banger, even recorded in an alternate tuning, quite advanced for 1954.
