"Hi guys :) I’ve been so inspired these past few months… incredibly inspired by the people, places and sounds surrounding me. With that im making the best music I feel I’ve ever made, new songs that I want to add to this album but I’ll need some more time, so I’m moving my album date to August 15th. I am very sorry, but to make up for it there will be more music coming out & you’ll be hearing alot from me until then, thank you so much for your patience :) – Brian"

Deftones: private music

The group first brought up the new album during a backstage interview at Coachella with radio station KROQ, where the group's frontman, Chino Moreno, stated:
“Basically, where we’re sitting right now is we have a whole record recorded all musically. And it’s pretty much my job right now to finish up the vocals. And I have, obviously, this show again next week, and then straight after that, I go back home to Oregon and I go in the studio. So as long as that takes… I hate to put a definite kind of timeframe, ’cause we’re not really in a rush. We want it to be great. I think that’s most important. But it is coming, and, yeah, it’s really good. We’re really excited with what we’ve been working on. And everybody’s jazzed."
Kid Cudi: Free
Another big August 22 release is Kid Cudi's upcoming album, Free. The album is tied in with the newly launched Moon Man comic, and already has 2 songs from the album released, Neverland and Grave.
“I wanted something that really expressed freedom, so the concept of me leaping into the clouds made so much sense,” Cudi wrote in the announcement post’s caption. “Inspired by The Truman Show. I can’t WAIT for u guys to hear this album and really see the album art brought to life. You’re in for a beautiful ride. Promise.”
