Description
Import Pressing
True to its name, Covers collects a series of songs reinterpreted by Deftones throughout the alt-metal outfit’s lengthy career — a surreal take on Lynyrd Skynrd’s “Simple Man” was tracked back when the band were still teenagers. From mosh-driven salutes to Duran Duran, to dub-pop revamps of the Cars, to explosive re-imaginings of Jawbox and Drive Like Jehu, to a slow-core-sensual Cure redux, the 2011 compilation is an illuminating look at the varied influences that helped inspire Deftones to become one of heavy music’s most celebrated acts.
