Deftones Drop New Single ‘Genesis’
Just one week before the release of their new album, Sacramento’s Deftones are giving fans yet another taste of Ohms. On Friday, the crew unleashed their latest single off the forthcoming album, “Genesis,” with a video to match. The release follows lead single “Ohms” which dropped on Aug. 21 alongside their announcement of a Sept. 25 album of the same name and some lyrical teasing. “Genesis” finds the group in its usual riff-heavy metal pocket, as its video — directed by Sebastian Kökow with live performance direction from Clemente Ruiz — is just as trippy and flashy as expected. SPIN recently took a look back at the group’s iconic 2000 album White Pony in honor of its 20th anniversary back in June. Take a look at our retrospective here and listen to Deftones’ latest single below: [em...

As live events continue to bite the curb in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic’s wreckage, legions of pharmaceutical companies continue on a mad dash to the finish line in the race for a vaccine.

NAPALM DEATH’s MARK ‘BARNEY’ GREENWAY On Rise Of Right-Wing Populism: ‘We Should Be Moving Forward’, Not Backward
In a new interview with Brazil’s Wikimetal, NAPALM DEATH frontman Mark “Barney” Greenway spoke about the rise of right-wing populism around the globe, including the election of Donald Trump in the United States, the Brexit vote in Britain, as well as the ascent of populist parties in countries such as Austria, Brazil, Italy, India, Indonesia and Poland. “The thing is that the world has always been a shitty place, and it’s also been a fantastic place,” Greenway said (see video below). “You can go back periods in history — even if you take the last hundred years, you can point out time periods in every decade that were really shit for people in general, or more smaller groups of people. So this is nothing new. “There was always a possibility it...
