Deftones are the most popular metal band to listen to during sex, according to a new study.The study was carried out by ZipHealth, which surveyed over 1,000 Americans to find out what listening habits they may have in the bedroom.
Overall, it was found that 47 per cent of respondents said that they regularly listen to music during sex, and metal band Deftones were found to be one of the most popular choices.In addition to asking people as part of a survey, ZipHealth also analysed playlists across Spotify which contained the words “sex”, having sex”, “making love”, “freaky”, “BDSM” and “unprotected sex” in the title.While the findings showed that it was largely hip-hop and rap that dominated the most popular choices, the Chino Moreno-led band were placed in the Number Three spot overall, just behind The Weeknd, who topped the list, and Kanye West, who came in at second place.In fact, Deftones were the only band from a hard rock or metal category to be featured in the Top 10 overall acts.
Others making the top of the list included Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Lana Del Rey.The other metal acts that featured lower down in the rankings included Slipknot, who were the second most popular metal band, and System Of A Down, who came in third.When it came to BDSM, the most popular artist found in the study was Nine Inch Nails, who also had the highest ranking BDSM song: 1994 hit ‘Closer’.Elsewhere in the study, it was shown that the top song overall across all of the bedroom playlists was ‘Super Freaky Girl’ by Nicky Minaj.It also showed that there was a correlation between the genre of music chosen and the amount of time spent under the sheets.
