Around the Fur is the album that put Deftones at the forefront of the 1990s alternative metal scene, after the underground, fan-base building success of their major label debut, Adrenaline.
The song "Headup" features Max Cavalera of Soulfly. The song was written by Max and Chino as a way of venting some of their pain over the loss of Max's step son, and Chino's friend, Dana Wells. Soulfly is taken from a portmanteau invented for the song. It was also featured in the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 (soundtrack).
Around the Fur is the first album to feature Frank Delgado as additional personnel, who would eventually join the band officially in 1999.
