Longtime ES and Deftones fan here.
Agree the new ES isn’t a patch on Take to the Skies, IMHO they’ve dropped off a bit over the last 5 or 6 years. For me their last great track was Paddington Frisk. You’re bang on about the live shows - they played The Feast when the wife and I saw them on the Flash Flood of Colour tour and it was the best live track I’ve seen - so so good.
RE Deftones I’m struggling with the new record. If you listen to it off the back of White Pony or Self Titled the production just sounds a bit muddy. Great songs but the sound kind of ruins it a bit for me.

For me Enter Shikari has always been a laugh rather than a must listen.
They were an amazing live act, in the olden days when you could go to gigs. Nowadays I feel like Roy in the IT crowd whenever I move forward in the crowd. I cant remember what year I first saw them (2005-2007) sometime, but it was incredible.
