Artist: Deftones
Title: Pink Maggit
Date: March 12, 2005
A friend of mine once said that “music is nothing but a series of boring parts followed by exciting parts.” While I don’t think that’s necessarily true of every song, it does have some merit with regards to “Pink Maggit,” as the first several minutes of this song are somewhat aimless and quite atypical of most Deftones songs. And then 2 minutes and 43 seconds hits, and the song kicks into high gear with the main portion of the song. To best illustrate the concept of “boring-exciting”, listen to Deftones’ “Back To School (Mini-Maggit)” and you’ll see how virtually the same song but with the “boring parts” stripped out loses much of its edge.
