Following their 2012 "Koi No Yokan" record, Deftones is reportedly going to release a new album next year.
In an interview with NME, band members Abe Cunningham and Frank Delgado glady shared new details about the album's progress.
While the exact release date has yet to be announced, Delgado confirmed that the new album will definitely hit the shelves next year.
"It's going to come out in the new year," Delgado said. "We had some dates that were already kind of tentative."
Cunningham, on the other hand, admitted that while the band is now done with the recording, they are still working on the new album's title, artwork and even song titles.
"It's being mixed now," the person in charge of the turntables explained. "It started being mixed a couple weeks back. They're actually going tomorrow to go down and listen to mixes and do things and... We're mixing and we still are in the process of album title, artwork, song titles. We haven't even got there yet, but the music's done."
And in a separate interview with Blabbermouth, Delgado teased that fans will definitely hear something new and surprising from Deftones.
"This one was different," Delgado said of their new Deftones album. "This one was a lot of starting and stopping, which I think is something we would've been scared of before."
"For the last couple of records, we went in and we started writing and we didn't stop until we finished the record," he said. "This one we took our time and it was a good pace. Everyone needed that break to breathe, to go home to family. Now we're ready to be able to work like this. It allowed us to think about things longer as opposed to get something done by a deadline."
