As the recent pre-order suggested, there will be no deluxe edition of “Koi No Yokan“. On that Moreno stated that the album is perfect as is. Furthermore, the planned sessions which they had lined up to record additional covers for any potential alternate versions of the album didn’t pan out.
He also mentioned that a third EP from ††† (Crosses) is already in the can, but is on the back burner for now due to his commitments with the Deftones. Surprisingly the long dormant Team Sleep is still a going concern though. He stated that he and his bandmates have “been recording stuff back and forth”—though no firm plans for any future release are in the works.
And perhaps to the relief of some, Moreno has no interest in getting into EDM/Dubstep—despite his recent collaboration with Bassnectar. When asked if he had any aspirations to break into the genre, he replied:
“Not at all… Why did I do it? Because he’d asked me to do it. He’s a fan of ours and a friend of ours and I got paid a lot of money to do it for a soundtrack, it’s as simple as that you know?”
He later followed up, saying: “I love a lot of electronic music, I just… you know, I don’t have any passion for that though really.”
In other Deftones news...
Deftones were joined by a special guest during their set at the Rams Head Live in Baltimore, MD last night. Bad Brains vocalist H.R. joined the group for a cover his own bands “Right Brigade” and a rendition of the Deftones‘ “Bored“. Fan-filmed footage of both pairings is now available HERE.
At least one member of the Deftones couldn’t contain his inner fanboy over the pairing. Bassist Sergio Vega took his Twitter with the following, “Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine I would perform a song w HR!!! Thanx Baltimore!! #RightBrigade #badbrains #deftonesporvida”
Both bands have new albums in the wings with the Deftones to release “Koi No Yokan” on November 13th. The Bad Brains‘ “Into The Future” will arrive the following week on November 20th.
