One year ago today (April 13), Deftones said goodbye to bassist Chi Cheng, who passed away after a 2008 car accident left him mostly in a coma for four and a half years. On the one year anniversary of his passing, frontman Chino Moreno has posted the unreleased song 'Smile' from Deftones' shelved album 'Eros.'
Deftones frontman Chino Moreno may be spending his time in Australia promoting his other band Crosses, but that doesn't mean that Deftones are taking things easy. Despite an earlier report that the band would be taking the year off, it's all systems go in the Deftones camp.
San Antonio will be rocking in late May as the River City Rockfest returns with a stellar hard rock and metal lineup. Kid Rock, Five Finger Death Punch and Deftones will lead the way, with a number of frontline rock acts joining them for the festivities.
Deftones may not appear in the video for their new single 'Romantic Dreams,' but their stamp is still all over the clip. The video serves as both a showcase for the new song and for the skateboarding prowess of Jason Park.
