It took me a while (sue me) to get my hands on this album but once I did, I didn't want to put it down. This LP is eleven tracks of harmony that are guaranteed to play in your ear buds for a very long time. If alternative metal is your thing (like it is mine) or if you simply possess a penchant for good music, then this stirring amalgamation of melodies and lasting tunes is just what your local "musicologist" (that's a thing right??) ordered!
If you're already familiar with "The Deftones" then you'll be pleased to hear that band front man Chino Moreno croons his way to one of the best performances that I've heard in years. Unfortunately the album does not feature the musical stylings of long-time bassist Chi-Cheng as he still recovers from a near-fatal auto accident that occured back in 2008.
Finishing on a brighter note, and seeing as this is the first time that I will be employing this review system allow me to familiarize you with it:
- The ratings are out of 3 stars
- 0 stars being the lowest and 3 being the highest with everything else crammed in between (tighter than my skills in symphonic jurisprudence...or something...)
So, without further delay it is my pleasure to bestow a humble:
The Deftones : Koi No Yokan (2012)
2.5 out of 3 stars
