good show.

I wish we'd get more info though :p

Thanks Inkblades! We finally got a cookie! lol  Nothing too nitty gritty however it's something . Just the way Abe talked about how they focused on the intro ideas and the dynamics has me all excited... I think this is going to be an otherworldly Deftones album that is going to blow us away. Hope Friday arrives bearing more news, hopefully an announcement of a single.

Thanks a lot man, laughed at your little corrections person who wrote it obviously didn't do their research.

I genuinely laughed at the part implying that DE is heavier than the self-titled album. Thnx for typing the interview out, quite interesting, especially the part about the intros.

Also: please, lord, let this rumor be true. Do they mean performing a new song live, or an actual single?

The festival isn't until the 23rd so they have to mean releasing an actual single, obviously if true at all.

Lol yeah. Especially funny since it's from METAL HAMMER! I thought this magazine was supposed to be brutal!

I was wondering what they were smoking with this.  Returning to dreamier soundscapes of S/T?  Do they have a different version?

thats funny LOL

[bewareofrats]

It would be out of nowhere, but not quite.  Because we have rumour of it.  Truly out of nowhere would be BOOM.  Single not here, second later, single here.  Without any warning.

Produced by Nick Rasculinecz and mixed by Matt Hyde (who is handling production duties on the upcoming Parkway Drive album), the album's set to contain 10 to 12 tracks and will be out in the autumn.

Hmmm a little worried after reading about Matt Hyde mixing the album. Has anyone heard the new Parkway stuff? Sounds dead and try. Hope the album sounds good.

am I the only person who agrees?

[ChannelZer0]

Umm yeah! Self-Titled > DE

You mean you agree that DE is heavier than S/T? No song on DE is as heavy as WGTB. None. Nada. Zip.

One song ≠ Album

I guess looking at each song one could argue that both albums start off heavy but I just get the general feel that DE was heavier.  Never looked at S/T as a heavy album but more as a mix of Deftones sounds.

[Inkblades]

Hexagram, Needles & Pins, WGTB and the end of Bloody Cape are heavier songs than mostly everything on DE. Maybe the end of Royal and parts of Prince can compete if they were like that for the whole songs. S/T also has a much darker sound, while DE is much more happier.

I just feel like they got it wrong. WP and SNW are the albums with the dreamier soundscapes. Alright, S/T has dreamy moments (Minerva, Lucky You, Anniversary), but the rest of the album? I'm not so sure.
