Team Sleep

The side project from Deftones frontman Chino Moreno. They've been together a while but are finally releasing an album on May 9th. Really good stuff, more melodic than the Deftones but definitely alternative.

Check them out at http://www.maverick.com/teamsleep/site/

Yea they should be great but tbh the deftones could do with getting a bit heavier like back in the around the fur days.

Finally releasing an album? I thought they released one about 2 years ago?

I thought they did too but amazon only has one cd listed for pre-order.

I've been following Teamsleep for 2 or so years, and they did have an album ready to release but it got leaked so scraped it all together.

well that album wasn't complete... but yeah there are tracks that you can download without ruining the album. my personal favourite non-album track is "mercedes". also see "kool aid party" with the general himself, mike patton

the album is everything chino promised. very cool, beautiful... etc.
though i'm not a massive fan of bands doing lots of colaborations on one album, the songs are very very good. not sure how it'd translate live though

heres where you can get the tracks they scraped, go to disco. http://www.blvdnights.fr.st/

Saw it in Tower on Friday but didn't buy it. I wanted to hear what others thought first.
