This sort of factor normally goes with out saying, however you individuals actually like Deftones. Like, you dig this band a lot that you simply apparently take heed to them whilst you shit and do the horizontal cha-cha. (Although hopfully not on the identical time… except you’re into that sorta factor…)
Sure, for many years this band has had most of you fuckers in an aural headlock and truthfully, I get it. The tunes are rattling good, having managed over time to maintain followers on their toes with every new launch. So when phrase obtained out {that a} laundry listing of their songs obtained certifications from the Recording Business Affiliation of America (RIAA), it wasn’t stunning.
For people who don’t know, the RIAA bestows sure certifications on songs and albums based mostly on gross sales knowledge from retail and different markets. For instance, Gold certifications come at 500,000 models, Platinum certs come at 1,000,000, and so forth and so forth.
In keeping with the RIAA, the certifications awarded to Deftones yesterday went as follows:
- “Change (In The Home Of Flies)” (gold, platinum, 2x platinum, 3x platinum, 4x platinum)
- “Be Quiet And Drive (Far Away)” (gold, platinum, 2x platinum)
- “My Personal Summer season (Shove It)” (gold, platinum, 2x platinum)
- “Passenger” (feat. Maynard James Keenan) (gold, platinum)
- “Rosemary” (gold, platinum)
- “Cherry Waves” (gold, platinum)
- “Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Need” (The Smiths cowl) (gold)
- “Gap In The Earth” (gold)
- “Entombed” (gold)
- “Minerva” (gold)
- “Beware” (gold)
- “Round The Fur” (gold)
- “Magnificence College” (gold)
Yep. None of that surprises me. What’ll be attention-grabbing to see sooner or later if any songs from the band’s forthcoming album that they’ve been teasing will land on that listing. We’ll supposedly know by August in the event that they’ll stand to the likes of “Change (In The Home Of Flies)” or “My Personal Summer season (Shove It)”, so we don’t have lengthy to attend in any respect.
