I go in phases with both. I have both loved and loathed each of them,
but I'm a lot more familiar with Korn than Deftones.I think the reason
that Deftones have more credibility is that they never exploded, and
they never released any really bad albums. Korn make good songs, but bad
albums. A lot of filler, a lot of questionable ideas, a lot of things
that could be described as cheesy. Deftones more or less avoid
cheesiness.
Also, I imagine that since Korn were a sort of
giant, giant deal at one point, and Deftones sort of 'never got their
due' it helps them in the respect stakes, knowing how Metal fans can be.
