Deftones To Release ‘One Of [Their] Best Albums’ in May

by | Feb 6, 2010

Deftones will be releasing their sixth studio album in May. When asked what fans should expect from the forthcoming album, vocalist Chino Moreno told Spin Magazine:

“The dynamics Deftones are known for — aggressive overtones and lush openness. They’re on opposite sides of the spectrum, but we meld them together without sounding contrived. There are a few heavy songs, too, like our first couple records, and there are also experimental tunes — but there’s not a minute on this record that feels like it doesn’t need to be there. Each sound complements the other. I’ll straight-up say it: it’s definitely one of our best albums.”
