Crosses (usually stylized as †††) is the musical side project of Deftones singer Chino Moreno, Far guitarist Shaun Lopez and Chuck Doom, based in Los Angeles, California, and formed in 2011. ==History== Having recorded together previously, Deftones singer Chino Moreno began recording with childhood friend and neighbor Shaun Lopez, also of the band Far, as well as Chuck Doom.〔 Moreno described the project as "minimal and soothing and it's sort of like the stuff I like listening to when I'm not screaming my head off."〔 With a tentative title of Crosses as the name of the project, they began recording for over four hours a day, completing nearly 16 songs with plans to self-release a series of EPs.〔 Recorded at Airport Studios in Los Angeles, California, their debut EP was released for free on August 2, 2011,〔 with a higher quality version made available for purchase on their website.〔 Duff McKagan, of Velvet Revolver and Loaded, contributed additional bass to the song "This Is a Trick" while Chris Robyn of Far performed live drums on the EP. Dino Campanella of the rock band Dredg has also worked as a live drummer for the band. Crosses contributed a previously unreleased song titled "The Years" to the ''Batman: Arkham City – The Album'', the soundtrack to the game of the same name. It was also featured in the game's Joker trailer. A second EP from Crosses was released on January 24, 2012. In 2012, Crosses played the Lollapalooza Chile festival 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://lineup.lollapaloozacl.com/ )〕 as well as the Quilmes Rock festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.crossesmusic.com/post/13063881121# )〕 Crosses released a vinyl single, including the tracks "Option" and "Telepathy" from their first two EPs, for Record Store Day 2012. The band also released an official remix of the Rob Zombie song, "Dragula", appearing on Zombie's 2012 album ''Mondo Sex Head''. A postulated third Crosses EP was not released, and Moreno put Crosses temporarily on hold while he concluded work with Deftones (the album ''Koi No Yokan'', issued in November 2012) and another side project, Palms, with ex-members of Isis (releasing their debut album, ''Palms'', in June 2013). In September 2013, Crosses signed with Sumerian Records. In October 2013, Crosses announced that a full-length album was set to be released on November 26, 2013 through Sumerian, and also posted the new track "The Epilogue" online for streaming. The release date for the band's eponymous debut was later pushed back to February 11, 2014, and the new track "Bitches Brew" was posted online for streaming along with the announcement. On November 26, the date Crosses were originally scheduled to release their debut album, the band instead released a music video for "Bitches Brew" directed by Raul Gonzo. The album contains remastered versions of all songs from the previous two EPs as well as five new tracks (essentially, what would have been ''EP 3''). The track order intermingles new tracks and songs from both EPs. On April 19, 2014, for Record Store Day, Crosses reissued the first two EPS as well as ''EP 3'', all on colored 10" vinyl.〔http://www.teamdeftones.com/2014/03/crosses-to-release-record-store-day.html〕 In 2014, Crosses appeared as part of the Australian music festival Soundwave, followed by a US spring tour. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crosses (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
