DEFTONES have announced the follow up to 2012’s Koi No Yokan has been delayed until November.

The still untitled album which features Alice In Chains guitarist Jerry Cantrell was set for initial release September 25.

Front-man Chino Moreno told WSOU in an interview: “I think probably November. We are rushing to get our thank yous and credits turned in.

“Once the music is turned in there is still some mixing and mastering to be done. But the recordings all done and the songs are all there – they’re awesome were excited.”

He also tells that bassist Sergio Vega is bringing a different sound to the album.

Moreno explains: “One thing on this record that’s really cool is that our bass player is playing a six-sting bass which is closer to a baritone guitar.

“It moulded a different sound and a different area of sonics.”

DEFTONES will play a one-off concert at London’s SSE Arena, Wembley on November 21.
