Deftones! Coming to a speaker near you in 2020

If you grew up in the 90s and the entirety of the 2000s, Deftones is a name that needs no introduction. Their unique strand of nu-metal is the kind that hits hard and can make you wet (male, female, or not… yeah it’s that kinda stuff). They’ve been on a marathon run since they started as a band, and haven’t slowed down since, though that might have started to catch up with them in 2016 when they released Gore. I don’t know about you, but for me, that album didn’t click with me like their other albums did. I’m not sure why, but my guess is that it could be a product of running out of ideas that capture the (for lack of a better term) “sensation” their past discography held.

Yet low and behold, they keep going. They’ve been in the studio for their next album for a bit, and (according to Loudwire) have enough material for a full length, and are hoping to release in 2020. Deftones frontman Chino Moreno said in an interview with NBC San Diego “We’ve been working on our record for about a year now," “We are kind of enjoying our time making it,” Moreno added. “It’s been a cool process, we get together, we work for a couple weeks, whether that’s just making noise and coming up with ideas and then everybody just goes home and comes back to work on ‘em a little bit more.”

While they are set up for a 2020 release, I’m still a bit scared to see what they come out with. Even though they have a laid back attitude, if I recall correctly, they had a similar attitude while making Gore. So will we get Gore 2.0, or will they come out with their best album since White Pony? Or will it be another Deftones album? Only time will tell, and we’ll have to wait a year to hear what they have to offer.
