Heard together, they reveal a group whose taste ran far wider than the nu-metal label ever suggested.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe covers say a lot about where Chino Moreno and company were coming from. They turn Lynyrd Skynyrd's \"Simple Man\" into a slow, heavy crawl, find the hidden menace in Sade's \"No Ordinary Love\", and give The Smiths' \"Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want\" a hushed, devoted reading. Elsewhere, versions of Cocteau Twins, Jawbox and Duran Duran songs show off their love of dream-pop, post-hardcore and new wave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe acoustic versions are just as revealing. Stripped back, \"Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)\" exposes how strong the band's melodies were all along, with Moreno's voice floating rather than roaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor longtime fans, this is a crucial piece of the puzzle, showing the sensitivity that always sat beneath the heaviness. Newcomers will find a surprisingly gentle entry point to one of alternative metal's most adventurous bands.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57351056621873,"sku":"093624843498","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Deftones-B-Sides_Rarities_2LP.jpg?v=1793976624","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/deftones-b-sides-rarities-2lp","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
