Deftones' New Release, 'Gore', Has Been Called a Departure from The Deftones’ new release, ‘Gore’, has been called a departure from the group’s recent albums— somber and a little less optimistic. Stephen Carpenter and Chino Moreno discuss filling different guitar frequencies with different numbers of strings, tone modeling, and keeping the inspiration alive for more than two decades. by TZVI GLUCKIN March 10, 2016 edit by: deftfan (DeftonesZone) Grammy-winning rock group deftones is a guitar- centric, the knowledge i had read up on, was told about, and riff-driven band.

  • Deftones Annonserer Albumet Ohms
    Deftones - Ohms 21-08-2020 11:40 CEST Deftones annonserer albumet Ohms Det GRAMMY-prisvinnende og internasjonalt kritikerroste bandet Deftones har annonsert at det etterlengtede albumet, Ohms, utgis 25. september via Warner Records. Annonseringen kommer sammen med det episke tittelsporet, ny video regissert av Rafatoon og oppdatert hjemmeside via deftones.com. Spekuleringen rundt det kommende albumet blant fans har feid over medielandskapet og satte fyr på nysgjerrigheten i det bandets hjemmeside og sosiale medier ble mørke. Dette fortsatte å øke da bandet røpet album coveret uten noen videre tilleggsinformasjon. Coveret er designet av deres mangeårige samarbeidspartner Frank Maddocks (som også designet det ikoniske White Pony LP coveret), og det fengslende bildet av to øyne bestående av tusener av hvite piksler dukket kryptisk opp på en billboard i den kulturelle kjernen av Los Angeles på Fairfax Avenue over den ikoniske restauranten Canter's Deli med skriften "This Is Our Time...We Devour The Days Ahead." Ohms ble innspilt på Henson Studios og Trainwreck Studios og er et utenomjordisk arbeid laget av kvintetten. Det markerer også deres første album på fire år siden kritikerroste Gore i 2016. Bandet, som består av Chino Moreno, Frank Delgado, Stephen Carpenter, Abe Cunningham, og Sergio Vega, har produsert en kompakt plate der hvert bandmedlem leverer på sitt beste. Albumet har også med seg en velkjent samarbeidspartner i veteran produsent og ingeniør Terry Date, som jobbet på Adrenaline (1995), Around The Fur (1997) og White Pony (2000). Alt dette legger til rette for å levere Ohms; 10 spor med rå virkelighetsfrukt og enestående groove som har gjort Deftones' sound eksepsjonell i over to år.

The offer was available for three months, after which the band released and commercialized the album, both digitally and in CD. In this paper, we use weekly music sales data in the US between 2004-2012 to examine the effect of Radiohead’s unorthodox strategy on the band’s al- bum sales. We find that Radiohead’s PYOP offer had no effect on the subsequent CD sales. Interestingly, it yielded higher digital album sales compared to a traditional release.

  • TRUTH CORRODED BIOGRAPHY 2018 Drums: Jake Sproule, Vocals: Jason North, Guitar
    TRUTH CORRODED BIOGRAPHY 2018 Drums: Jake Sproule, Vocals: Jason North, Guitar: Trent Simpson, Bass: Greg Shaw, Lead Guitar: Chris Walden TRUTH CORRODED are an Australian band with a sound that captures elements of late 80's/early 90's inspired thrash and death metal, shaped by the likes of bands such as SLAYER, OBITUARY, SEPULTURA, KREATOR and EXHORDER, and then later influenced by acts such as MISERY INDEX, BEHEMOTH, NEUROSIS, DECAPITATED and REVOCATION. Taken together the influences have shaped a sound that is as confronting as the subject matter of the bands lyrics and pays homage to the go for the throat savagery of the bands roots. TRUTH CORRODED signed with leading US extreme metal label UNIQUE LEADER RECORDS which led to the release of the album titled 'Bloodlands' which was released in March 2019. Based on themes surrounding war and displacement, the album depicts the state of our times and the social and political impact that is having both in the bands home country Australia and abroad. The title refers to the growth of new conflict from conflicts past, with the suffering it creates spreading its roots. The album was recorded with session drummer Kevin Talley (SUFFOCATION, DYING FETUS, CHIMAIRA) – his third album with the band – and was mixed and mastered by renowned heavy music producer Chris 'ZEUSS' Harris (HATEBREED, SOULFLY, REVOCATION). The album also features guest appearances by Stephen Carpenter of DEFTONES, Terrance Hobbs of SUFFOCATION, Mark Kloeppel of MISERY INDEX and Ryan Knight, ex-THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER/ARSIS. Artwork for the album is designed by Gary Ronaldson at Bite Radius Designs (MISERY INDEX, BENIGHTED, PIG DESTROYER, THY ART IS MURDER) Commenting on the industry involved, vocalist Jason North offers "When we first set out to write the album we could not have imagined that we would work with the artists that have become involved.

  • Upheaval Records Interview
    Upheaval Records Interview This is the second interview in a series of Canadian record labels, and this is one of my all time favorite record labels! Everything released by this dude was amazing! And it definitely stands the test of time! Dan actually has copies left of the New Day Rising 7″, Lockjaw CD and Day of Mourning CD. You can email him to acquire some copies for your own. The complete Upheaval Records discography includes: UR-666 – New Day Rising double 7” (1996) – Less than 2000 copies UP002CD – Ignorance Never Settles“Cycles of Consumption” (1996) – 1000 copies UP003CD – Lockjaw “A Lesson in Hate” (1997) – Less than 1000 UP004CD – Day of Mourning “Reborn as the Enemy” (1998) – 1000 copies UR-666 – New Day Rising double 7” (1996) UP002CD – Ignorance Never Settles “Cycles of Consumption” (1996) UP003CD – Lockjaw “A Lesson in Hate” (1997) UP004CD – Day of Mourning “Reborn as the Enemy” (1998) Instead of using the label logo, Upheaval Records used this definition on the outside of the New Day Rising 7″ -When was the label formed and where was it located originally? The label was formed in 1996. I ran it out of Hamilton. At first, I would trade my releases with other labels from all over the world, so the whole room would be just packed with records. It was kind of neat where it was my fantasy equivalent to business people who dream of wanting to roll around in money. I didn’t actually want to roll around in records, but I loved having boxes of them everywhere.

  • Deftones - Ohms Episode 196
    Song Exploder Deftones - Ohms Episode 196 Hrishikesh: You’re listening to Song Exploder, where musicians take apart their songs and piece by piece tell the story of how they were made. My name is Hrishikesh Hirway. (“Ohms” by DEFTONES) Hrishikesh: This episode contains explicit language. Deftones are a Grammy-winning band from Sacramento who’ve sold over ten million albums. Their ninth album came out this year on September 25th, 2020. It’s called Ohms, and the last track on it is also called “Ohms.” In this episode, singer Chino Moreno breaks down how that song came together, and how they literally went back to where things started in order to create the music. (“Ohms” by DEFTONES) Hrishikesh: Here’s Chino Moreno on how “Ohms” got started. Chino: My name is Chino Moreno. (Music fades out) Chino: The first time I heard anything of it was a email that I received from Stephen Carpenter, who plays guitar. He sent this demo and I remember I was travelling, and I was on my way to Yellowstone National Park. And I remember like my wife was getting mad at me because I don’t have unlimited data so like I was downloading stuff like using my cellular network. And she was like “Why are you downloading stuff right now? We’re going to run out of data!” But I had already got like two thirds of the way through so I just continued on. This was probably three or so years ago out of the blue. He rarely sends me demos because a lot of our music is really written like when all of us are in the same room.

  • Deftones and Skunk Anansie at SPIRIT of BURGAS 2011
    TCPDF Example Deftones and Skunk Anansie at SPIRIT OF BURGAS 2011 Wednesday, 16 March 2011 After already announcing MOBY, SKUNK ANANSIE and DEFTONES are two more top international acts that will rock the party on the beach at this years SPIRIT of Burgas 2011. British band SKUNK ANANSIE make a welcome return to the live music circuit and are set to perform on the festival's Main Stage on Saturday, 13th of August before Moby. Iconic front woman Skin will be joined by fellow band members Cass, Ace and Mark Richardson with their unique sound, that shattered the conventional perceptions of rock music when they first appeared in the mid 90's. With 5 million album sales under their belt, one of the most forthright, iconic, and confrontational female lead singers in modern musical history, a six-year back catalogue to make you quiver, SKUNK ANANSIE are back and ready to rock the beach in Burgas! Move forward twenty-four hours to the final night of the festival on Sunday 14th August and Californian band DEFTONES, will take to the Main Stage. DEFTONES are an American rock band from Sacramento, formed in 1988, consisting of lead singer Chino Moreno , Stephen Carpenter, Chi Cheng, Sergio Vega, Frank Delgado and Abe Cunningham. Their sound combines the booming rhythms of stoner rock with the experimental edge of prog and although they were mostly considered as a nu metal band in their early years, their sound progressively evolved into something more complex and experimental. With their sixth studio album "Diamond Eyes", even those, who are not fans of the heavy rock sound, could not have missed the name DEFTONES after their track "My Own Summer (Shove It)" was included in the cult motion picture "The Matrix" Soundtrack.
