Deftones Preview 2016

TICKET GIVEAWAY: Deftones (SOLD OUT!) | House of Blues, Orlando, FL | Saturday, May 14, 2016

by • May 1, 2016

So, you wanna go to the SOLD OUT Deftones show at House of Blues Orlando on Saturday, May 14, 2016?! You want to rock out to classics like “Change (In the House of Flies)” or “7 Words,” or maybe you can’t wait to hear some stuff off the new album, GORE. Well, lucky for you Shows I Go To wants to send a few lucky fans to the show for free. Special guest Code Orange will be opening up the show. WIN TICKETS BELOW!

Deftones is one of my all-time favorite rock bands. Their first two albums are my favorites, hands down. Their latest release and eighth studio album GORE undoubtedly is vastly different compared to their early stuff, but Deftones always sound like Deftones and nobody else. The new album is unified and has feelings of a troubled new-wave hangover that is bursting with beautiful rage and dark doom riffs.

Deftones is always a treat to see live. I’ve had to miss out the last two times they came to town–last year with Incubus at the Tampa amphitheater and back in 2013 at Hard Rock Live. It’s been five years since my last Deftones show. Saw them twice in 2011 at Hard Rock Live in May and then three months later at the 311 Pow Wow festival in 2011 at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida. I filmed their whole Pow Wow set and it was magical.

Founded in 1988 in Sacramento, California, Deftones consists of Chino Moreno (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Stephen Carpenter (lead guitar), Frank Delgado (keyboards and turntables), Abe Cunningham (drums and percussion), and Sergio Vega (bass). It was just recently announced that Chino would be teaming up with Dr. Know (guitarist for the hardcore punk Bad Brains) and keyboard master John Medeski (Medeski, Martin & Wood and The Word) to form a new supergroup called Saudade. Completing this electric lineup are Mackie Jayson and Chuck Doom. This new group will surely be a psychedelic fusion of metal, rock, and jazz.

Pittsburg rockers Code Orange just signed to Roadrunner Records in April and will be releasing their third studio later this year (hopefully)–they changed their name from Code Orange Kids back in 2014. I’ve never heard of them until now, but I am looking forward to getting to the show early to catch their set.
