Deftones New Album 100 Percent Complete? Chino Moreno Discusses The Record's Release Date

Rockers and musicologists alike were euphoric when news broke out that Sacramento-based alternative metal band Deftones has reportedly finished recording their new album.

Lead vocalist Chino Moreno discusses the expected release date of the band's new album, according to sources.

It was reported earlier this year that the widely acclaimed alternative metal band Deftones was working on a new album and that in an interview with BBC Radio's Daniel P. Carter, the Sacramento band's front man Chino Moreno announced that the band's new album would have a tentative release date of September 25, as stated by Loud Wire.

"The record as far as music has been all recorded and I'm currently working on the vocals," Moreno said.

"I've been recording from my home studio here in Oregon. Slowly but surely getting it done, man. It's coming out really good, it's just another Deftones record, and I feel like us reaching a little bit, getting more into the song structures, and just trying to challenge ourselves a little bit you know what I mean?" he added.

"It's sounding good. I think it's gonna be a great record," he further explained.

In a seperate interview with Rolling Stone, Moreno confidently expressed his excitement on the band's new songs, which he said to be "built as a collective."

"The songs are amazing and we wrote them in a really cool way," the singer said, courtesy of RollingStone.

"We had all of us in a room together with one person expressing an idea and another person jumping on it. The songs are really built as a collective. We have five guys who have almost completely different takes on music, so when it works, it works great," he added.

After providing recording progress, Chino Moreno has now confired that the new album of Deftones is already in the mixing stage and would most likely be released early in 2016, NME reported.

Meanwhile, drummer Abe Cunningham and keyboardist Frank Delgado explained in an interview that they've already come up with an idea for their new album's release date.

"It's going to come out in the new year... We had some dates that were already kind of tentative," they said, courtesy of NME.
