Chino interviwed by "N.Y. Daily news" July, 2000 <----> Deftones frontman Chino Moreno had some less than kind words for a few bands in an interview featured in the New York Daily News, today Monday July 10th. He took the time to comment on a variety of current bands and also on the status of the rapcore sound, here's what he had to say: Chino: Honestly I don't think there's any band out there that does rap-metal correctly, except the Beastie Boys, the rest just seem silly to me. It's hard to turn on MTV and see all these bands on 'TRL' doing really shitty versions of a sound we helped pioneer, while our videos get played once at 3 in the morning. He also went on to call Kid Rock a "novelty" and stated Limp Bizkit is "frat rock, a mockery". When asked about how he felt about the current crop of nu metal bands and Slipknot in particular he stated: Chino: I grew up seeing real metal bands, like Metallica, compared to them, Slipknot is the Mickey Mouse Club. And laying to rest the rumor of the band breaking up, he commented on the bands longevity saying: Chino: I love bands that keep putting out records which always take the music ahead another step. That's the kind of band we hope to be. </noscript><script language="JavaScript"> if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape")!=-1) { window.open("http://furacao.terravista.pt/pub/popup.html","Pub","width=480,height=60,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,status=no"); } else { window.open("http://furacao.terravista.pt/pub/popup.html","Pub","width=470,height=60,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,status=no"); } </script>
