Get the latest track from Deftones inside. It’s a rocker!

Deftones will be releasing their brand new album, ‘Diamond Eyes’, on May 18th. Everyone we’ve spoken to connected with the band (including the band themselves) have said that it’s one of the finest things that they’ve ever put their names on and if ‘Rocket Skates’ is anything to go by, this album is going to slay.

Check out ‘Rocket Skates’ in the video below and go to the Deftones official site to download the track for free.

I’m absolutely loving the new track! One of their best songs in years. My only complaint however, is that it’s only 128 kps and the vocals don’t sound that well mixed into the song. Other than those minor complaints though, it’s awesome. Can’t wait for the album!

That’s the kind of song we could have found in Saturday Night Wrist. There’s kind of the same vibe. I like the vocal line though, and the guitars sound fucking great. Looking forward for the rest of the album.

No one writes lyrics like chino, creepy little stories wrapped up in trip metal, welcome back \m/

I’m not even a huge fan of Deftones but I love this track!
May give them more of a chance if this album’s a heavy one :D
If I want mellow I’ll just listen to Team Sleep.

Download doesn’t work, it’s just a cheap ploy for Warner to increase their mailing list spam output. Shame on Hammer for not even checking this out.

Worked for me this morning Max. In fact, I think I’ll put it on my iPod right now.

I don’t know whether I like it or not. The music is good enough but I don’t think Chino’s vocals work very well with it. They need to be shorter and sharper like the Around the Fur days.

Download not working for me either, I get either the special code is not correct or the code is in use pleas try again later.

lol my download isnt working either, however I highly dought Warner are doing it deliberately.
Still I want it on my ipod now :/

i think the new track has more of a White Pony vibe to it mixed in with a little of their Around The Fur guitar style. should be a great album. its just a shame that this isnt the stuff with Chi on. i hope they will release that material at some point though.

I like it that this band has they’re own sound, and you can tell who they are straight away. But going by the music video’s i’ve heard/seen i found them too boring to properly check them out.

This is a good song though. Will definatly look into them

Awesome song! I was a bit disappointed by Saturday Night Wrist, but this new song is right out of Around The Fur/White Pony era Deftones!!! I love it!!! Big expectations for the album now!!!

you need to right click on the “download now” link on the page and select save link as and it should start downloading. Hope that help.
