Deftones, etc. frontman Chino Moreno recently spoke to Billboard.com about the bands forthcoming new album and more. Speaking on their next studio album, which they are currently mixing, he stated:

"It's not a super fast or slow record. It's very dynamic. Some of my favorite things about Deftones are the dynamics. Yes, we're a heavy band, but we're not just in-your-face aggro the whole time, punching you in the face.
There's a lot of aggression in some of the music, but there's also this very soothing element where there's a lot of soundscapes rather than attack, attack, attack the whole time. I understand that's a big part of our sound, but I really feel like we reached a peak on our dynamics on this record with those two qualities — the beauty of something and just straight, ruthless aggression."

The as-yet untitled effort is tentatively on course for an October 09th release date. Meanwhile, Moreno has revealed he is helping out Team Sleep's Todd Wilkinson on a new solo album. He will also soon begin tracking vocals for the six song debut EP from Palms. That group of course three former members of Isis.
On that front Moreno offered: "The music's all been recorded and everything, and obviously I've been engulfed in the Deftones record. But I told them as soon as I was done, we would record the vocal stuff. He continued: "the songs are long as hell, so it's like a full LP. I don't know what it'll be like or when it's going to be done or released, but it's a project I think is pretty rad."

''that's a big part of our sound''

Deftones has a sound?
Wtf?

[from_musings]

 "the songs are long as hell" - imagine that it was the new deftones album he described, now that would raise a few eyebrows

[DEFinatelydeftones,fsho]

long songs that would have been made w them hanging out and shitting something from nothing? seems that's not good enough for some people around here. turn them eyebrows upside down people. u don't know a fucking thing about what this record is like and I'm glad Chino didn't give a straight up clue. I like it that way but especially since some don't and they sound like fools dissing it. give them your moneys though so they can keep on going please. i know u will

[TheShade1989]

I remember ppl complaining about the shortness of the songs on DE, so (depending on the actual music, of course) the Palms EP sounds like it could be pretty damn good.

As for the album, it sounds good; I love their balance of soft and aggressive, but I do hope there arent too many really slow songs (like Sextape). At least ppl know there will be aggression there even if not on all the songs. I am getting excited now, but I'm not getting my hopes up about that release date staying the same.

[rock_n_frost]

Isis songs were long so thats not a surprise.

About new Deftones
We need to hear something now.
It is a really good time.
Whatever they post will work.

Vega's gear

[luisch]

The guys back to rehearsal room yesterday, next show is next thursday 2nd August, hope we get a new song

[iceache]

I bet they play that "Roller Derby" song.

[sing blue silver]

Its a safe bet we'll hear at least 1 new song. If they do I'll have someone record it in HQ at Heavy MTL.

[rock_n_frost]

I bet they play that "Roller Derby" song.

i second that

[TheShade1989]

He compared Roller Derby to Rocket Skates, and they played Rocket Skates first, so they probably consider it to be the ideal first song to release. I see no reason why they wouldnt play a new song, so not long now until we get some low-quality recordings to analyze until our brains explode

[DEFinatelydeftones,fsho]

like your thoughts... really like em Let's hope for something 180 degrees from Rocket Skates though.......already been there, ya know? no "wooooohs!!!!!" I hope. Back to basics as they say.

[rock_n_frost]

i like rocket skates, it is a good song
it has around the fur album sound

[luisch]

getting ready
