Back To School (Mini Maggit)
|
Submitted By: Lancer.sdP
|
|
"Back To School" is an interpretation of the original White Pony closer "Pink Maggit". Maverick Records asked the band to do another single, since the album had none left other than "Change", wich quite irritated the members. So, Moreno took the lyrics for "Pink Maggit", giving a hip-hop feel to them, and made it a single to show their record label how easy it is to produce a single. The band regrets the decision ever since.

Deftones played "Back to School" on tours in support of White Pony but rarely thereafter. It was only until their South American and European tour in early 2007 that the song began appearing on their setlists.

Be Quiet And Drive (Far Away)
|
Submitted By: Lancer.sdP
|
|
An acoustic remix of "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)" was performed with a friend of the band, DJ Crook, and lead singer Jonah Matranga of Far. This mellow version with a new trip-hop-esque beat by Delgado inspired vocalist Chino Moreno to explore softer music, which eventually lead to the inception of his side project, Team Sleep.

Combat

Submitted By: Lancer.sdP
|
|
Despite wanting to, the band has never played "Combat" live, not even on the promo tour for "Saturday Night Wrist". According to Chino Moreno, this is "because we can't play it right - we rehearsed it many times but it never came out right".

In interviews, Moreno has stated that some of the lyrics are intentionally misprinted to cover up vulgarity. For example, at the beginning of "Feiticeira", the liner notes read "Stop I'm drunk" when Chino quite audibly sings "Fuck I'm drunk."

Hexagram

In reviewing Deftones, Stephen Thomas Erlewine writes that "Hexagram," the album's opener, "hits hard - harder than they ever have, revealing how mushy Staind is, or how toothless Linkin Park is, even if it's a bit of a shame that Chino Moreno has resorted to guttural barking for singing."

Korea
|
Submitted By: Lancer.sdP
|
|
The line "downtown pony" is used in the song "Korea", and in this sense "pony" seems to have a sexual connotation as well. This differs from the usual interpretation made from the album title, "White Pony", commonly regarded as a cocaine reference.

The video for Minerva features the band playing the song on a desert like landscape backed by various amplifiers and other stage equipment. It seems to be a direct tribute to the Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii video released in 1972.

Rats! Rats! Rats!

"Rats! Rats! Rats!" was the only song entirely written by Stef Carpenter on "Saturday Night Wrist". Carpenter attributes some of his lack of input to the album to his online golf obsession during the creation of the CD. He would record his ideas, and leave the rest of the band to toil with them for long time periods while he played golf online.

The song "U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R,A,B,SELECT,START" is a possible reference to the Konami code, which is normally represented as (U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R,B,A,Select, Start). This code is featured in many games published by Konami, as well as several other video game publishers. The title code does however work for "TMNT 3: The Manhattan Project" for the NES, a rare instance where the Konami code switches from b,a to a,b.
