Carnifex – Slow Death
Carnifex’s latest LP, Slow Death, is nothing if not about getting down to brass tacks. Quick off the blocks, the San Diego natives jump into the two strongest bangers of the batch, ‘Dark Heart Ceremony’ and ‘Slow Death.’ While doing so, they also set the template of what else to come in the remaining 29 minutes; Carnifex gonna be Carnifex.Continue reading

Deftones Releasing New Album On September 25th
Chino Moreno of Deftones appeared on this past weekend’s BBC Radio 1’s Rock Show with Daniel P Carter. He spoke about the forthcoming album, which is reportedly produced by Matt Hyde (Slayer, Children Of Bodom, Monster Magnet, Winds Of Plague), and out on September 25, 2015.
“The record, as far as music, has been all recorded, and I am currently working on the vocals.”
“So I’ve been recording from my home studio here in Oregon. Slowly but surely, [we’re] getting it done, man. It’s coming out really good. It’s just another Deftones record. And I feel like it’s us reaching a little bit, getting more into the song structures and trying to challenge ourselves a little bit, you know what I mean? It’s sounding good. I think it’s gonna be a great record.”
On their upcoming appearance at the Amnesia Rockfest in Montebello, QC (Canada), and performing the entire 1997 album Around The Fur in its entirety:
“[It] should be fun,” he said. “It might be a little bit of a challenge, ’cause there’s some songs on that record that we haven’t played for years. We’ve yet to really rehearse for that. That was before I started playing guitar too, so it’s just, like, all I gotta do is go out there and sing for, like, 45 minutes. It should be pretty easy, but who’s to say?!”
