sacramento, ca's own deftones are dropping a new album on may 4th 2010. this is their sixth full-length release following 2006's 'saturday night wrist' and the first recorded with bassist sergio vega [ex-quicksand]. [vega replaced original bassist chi cheng after a car accident in 2008 which left chi in a coma] chino and co. utilized the producing skills of nick raskulinecz on this recording. the first single is 'rocket skates' followed by 'diamond eyes'. both are currently available as cd singles or itunes downloads. there will also be a limited edition 7" single of 'rocket skates' released on record store day. the b-side will contain a remix. i don't have much info on the album release formats as of right now. but the way warner bros. has been operating as of late, i expect a nice vinyl treatment...
