Deftones — whose latest album, Koi No Yokan, just won Album of Year at the 2013 Revolver Golden Gods award show — have debuted the video for the lead-off track on the record, “Swerve City.”
Several members of the rock community responded over the weekend to the passing of Chi Cheng, the Deftones bassist who died Saturday at age 42. Cheng had been involved in a car accident in November 2008, which left him in a coma for some time. Although he started showing signs of improvement, he was never able to make a complete recovery.
