Ride:// Music:// Deftones' Koi No Yokan


I've been a fan of the Deftones ever since I discovered Around the Fur in 1999 (released 1997) and then I discovered their earlier works and rocked out to that too. Around the Fur was followed by the Album White Pony which made them a critical success. I haven't followed their work after the 2006 release of Saturday Night Wrist (God I love Cherry Waves) but I was able to catch their show when they performed here for the first time in 2011 if I remember right. The guys have been back a second time to promote their Koi No Yokan album (released 2012) which I unfortunately missed.

A video was just released for Romantic Dreams off the Koi No Yokan album featuring skater Jay Park doing his thing in the city night. Romantic Dreams contains the signature emotions I always look for in a Deftones track. There's elements in their work that are always there, I can't describe them but there's always a woman that Chino seems to be singing about who he loves but there's something wrong with her or she's this fantastic creature that has trapped him (Feiticeira comes to mind but that's just my interpretation). If you want some tunes to listen to on your next epic ride, you might want to check out their latest album.
