Deftones - Infos zum neuen Album!

Deftones

Ein MTV.com Artikel verrät einige News zum neuen Album der DEFTONES, welches am 12. September in die Läden kommen soll. Hier ein Überblick:

1. Thema: Chino Morenos Side Projekt TEAM SLEEP und warum dieser Seitensprung so wichtig für die DEFTONES war.

"With Team Sleep, there was just so much creativity going on, and everybody wanted to try all these weird, different things. So I just had more interest in it, and I told everyone [in Deftones] I was going to go away for a while...It was healthy that we all took a break. When I came back, we wanted to make the record, and we all got together and had the best time ever, just talking about what we wanted to do. We had to do other things. I had to do Team Sleep. I had to go just make music, different music with different people. I didn't want it to get stale at all — just making a record for the sake of making a record. I wanted to make something really good and that, hopefully, 10 years from now, people will still be listening to."

2. Thema: Die Produktion des neuen Albums

Ganze 2 Jahre lang haben die DEFTONES nun an dem neuen Material gearbeitet. Am Ende sind 17 Songs herausgekommen. An den meisten hat die Band gemeinsam mit Produzent Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Jane's Addiction) in seinem Heimstudio gearbeitet. Die Gesangsspuren wurden dagegen mit Hilfe von Shaun Lopez aufgenommen, seines Zeichens ehemaliger Gitarrist bei FAR. Chino Moreno dazu: "He has a studio right around the corner from [where I live], and every day, I've just been at his house, just recording, and it's been the most comfortable, best way of recording music ever. He knows Deftones just as well as we do. We all grew up together. He knows what he likes about our band and what we like about our band, and he wants to really bring that out." Das Abmischen des Album übernimmt Rich Costey (Audioslave, My Chemical Romance)

3. Thema: die neuen Songs und Gäste auf dem Album

Seine Begeisterung über die neuen Songs fasst DEFTONES Sänger Chino Moreno wie folgt in Worte: "The heavy stuff is really, really heavy, like really aggressive, and the stuff that's sweet and weird or whatever is sweeter and weirder. A lot of people will probably compare it to [2000's] White Pony, because that was one of the most diverse records that we did. This one's probably the most diverse record we've done."

Als Gast auf dem Album vertreten sein wird unter anderem Annie Hardy von der Band GIANT DRAG, der die Vocals zum Song "Pink Cell Phone" beisteuert. Der Track soll laut Aussage von Herrn Moreno wie ein "Club Song" klingen soll. Auch SYSTEM OF A DOWN Sänger Serj Tankian steuert einen Part zum neuen Song "Buffalo" bei.
