Deftones Talk Eros

The Deftones have gone back to square one on work-in-progress album, Eros.

The band has scrapped the songs completed with founding bassist Cheng, who is still in hospital following a horrific car accident last November, releasing a statement saying, “As we neared completion on ‘Eros’, we realized that this record doesn’t best encompass and represent who we are currently as people and as musicians. We collectively made the decision that we needed to take a new approach, and with Chi’s condition heavy on our minds while doing so. We needed to return to the studio to do what we felt was riught artistically.” There’s no word on release dates of yet.
