Sure, Chino is still at the top of his game, but...what a production job Shaun Lopez is doing! We should pay as much attention to that as we do to the vocals. I just can't stop listening to new Crosses music all the way around. Thank you so much, gentlemen - you're special af
This beat is crazy, last years music was out of this world. Blessed you guys are giving us more, this shit is fire. Chino is my favorite artist of all time, its crazy they are 50 and putting out music that's so innovative and unique. I worked with a kid in Idaho who lived with Ming Cheng Chi brother after playing the kid change he told me this wild story about how he knew the deftones, then another friend I met in Idaho sat right next to Chino in Huntington Beach last year... and I only found out about these things because I told these people how much I loved deftones and crosses, and showing them my diamonds eye tattoos. I lived in Portland for a while hoping I had the chance to run into Chino.
"Ready or not, we’ve started a game" Chino's voice is a fucking dream - always has been - always will be. But Shaun and Chino together have created one helluva soundscape with this - one I am happily willing to lose myself in. Love the storytelling in this - it's beautiful and heavy and everything I could want. Instant favorite!
I'm 41 and feel like if I was ever lucky enough to meet Chino I'd cry. Like just straight up sob. Lol. Heard Deftones for the first time as a young teenager in the 90s and became a ride or die fan of Chino/Deftones and it's been amazimg listening to and falling in love with Crosses. Totally different vibe from Deftones, but both are beautiful. Thank you Chino and Shaun for making noises that my ears really really love ❤
Got to see them when they released white pony. The energy was amazing. If this video ever loads I can't wait to see the new stuff. I just remember in HS having a blue backpack and my walkman
These two will never know just how much their music means to me. I've been a Deftones fan for a long time, at least 2004/2005, and EVERY project Chino works on is MAGICK. From "Adrenaline" to "Diamond Eyes", then all the way around to his lesser talked about project "Palms" (check out their song Patagonia) and currently with ††† such bewitching melody, raw anger wrapped in a soft embrace.
His voice is ethereal man. Hes been on fire for years no real missteps i can think of. Legend. Edit remember he covered "to have and to hold".....if you haven't heard RUclips it, 😉
Lyrics: [Verse 1] Ready or not We've started a game The rules are few and empty Drip out of your heart Reach out of your cell Come in closer Time your movement well [Verse 2] Reversed the rules again Deciding how to win Your turn at the cross The way I see it’s your only shot You covered in gowns You'll wear never again Getting closer, so close [Chorus] Sometimes I feel like the rules been changed Sometimes I feel like a ghost in chains [Verse 3] It's only a test Take this chain into your hand Offer up to the gods Let’s pretend We're getting closer, so close
Saw these dudes like 3 weeks ago with my older brother, my best friend, and my 15 year old son, which was his first show, by the way. And they absolutely killed it!! Chinos energy was electrifying, and Shaun's performance was mesmerizing. It's easily one of the best shows I've ever been to. And the best part was I got to share it with my son. Keep up the AMAZING work. Much love! ✝️ ✝️ ✝️
Right on. As a fan of Chino since "Adrenaline". This shit sounds as fresh as that did back in the day. Glad to see the newer generations gravitating to the talents from my generation.
Exactly bro. I smile when I see teens today rockin Deftones shirts. Unlike the kids rockin Nirvana shirts, I somehow know they actually listen to Deftones and it’s not just fashion.
These guys are on the same page. Just like with Deftones, every new song is unexpected, different, and amazing! I consider everything we get a gift, truly.
I’m not saying Crosses is better than Deftones or Team Sleep. It’s something else. We can’t compare those bands just because Chino is in them. What I’m saying is that Crosses is one of the best things that ever happened to modern music. This project is just beyond everything else right now. Damn they’re that good.
I, too, cannot say whether or not Crosses is better or worse than Deftones, Team Sleep, or Palms, but this hits me in a part of my soul that has been dormant since I was a teenager back in the late 90s/early 2000s.
I love this and love practically everything Chino has ever created, each band project he has is unique and full of fun surprises to unopen and explore! Chino Moreno you are amazing brother keep keeping us alive with all your beautiful music 🎵🎶 thanks so much God bless you and bandmates🙏🕊️✝️✝️✝️🔥👍🤘✌️🎧💥👂😙
Ya know, I was having a not so great day. Then I watched this. The second Shaun first slams the keys on the keyboard, all the bad just f'ed right off! Thank you guys! Your works are amazing! Your music is helping pull me through strange and tough times. Thank you so much!
The Minecraft glass break never sounded so good, wasn't expecting it, but it fits so well to the grittiness of the beat. Awesome work, you guys are amazing artists!
I listened to this song on a desert stretch of highway at sunset and saw the sea. Really fantastic, sophisticated, cinematographic. This formula is unbeatable.
This is such a pleasant surprise and an utter delight! It's Friday afternoon in New Zealand and this is getting cranked all weekend! LOVE the production. How do you continue to innovate? I bloody love it!!! 🌹
Chino looking good, glad he is taking care of himself and very happy we re actually getting a full length! Thought there would be a larger gap given the EP!
First I listened to sensation by none other than Deftone's frontman Chino Moreno himself, but now this song and music video! This guy is unstoppable at creating amazing music and side projects!
been addicted to Deftones since i was 15 yrs old...their growth artistically is nxt lvl. That being said Ive never seen someone bounce back n forth weight wise like Chino. I pray hes healthy & with us for a very long time!
Straight magic. Love how each tune is a story and like different rooms in one's mind. Very cool! Thanks fellaz for sharing your music sorcery with the rest of us. I can't wait to see what journey the next tune brings. ✌️💜🌞🌛🌝🌜
Amo lo cómodo y feliz que se ve Chino en este proyecto, nos largó un EP el año pasado y ahora se viene discazo con 15 canciones, se nota que le encanta lo que logran ❤
I LOVE this song like it’s been on repeat ever since I heard it but I can’t to help to think I miss Chuck and his funky bass grooves….I hope Chuck comes back
@@chucktaylor2172 fuck some spirit….we need those phat bass grooves like the one on thholyght on this new album. Something is missing and it’s ur bass grooves and some of ur writing.
Finally JUSTICE is back with a sequel to their debut CROSS. I’m so pumped for this duo to be back! This sounds very different but I’m ready to hear the whole album before I make any judgement.
Crazy these dudes probably have known each other since the late 80s/early90s and only started Crosses in the 2010s. Amazing. Shaun is a beast producer. Don't forget he also helped finish SNW! And no matter what you think of the record(I love Saturday Night Wrist) Bob and Shaun did amazing work.
This feels like Depeche Mode and NIN had a love child
Hell yeah
thats a good thing in my book!
Sure, Chino is still at the top of his game, but...what a production job Shaun Lopez is doing! We should pay as much attention to that as we do to the vocals. I just can't stop listening to new Crosses music all the way around. Thank you so much, gentlemen - you're special af
He’s so much freaking fun
1000000000%!!!!!
Shaun is the fucking genius when it comes to instrumentals and the cherry on top is Chino's vocals. ✝️✝️✝️ is a whole ass treat to behold 🫶
Agreed
he is distorting his synths yes. how awesome is that
Chino's got the voice of an angel!😍😭🥰
Fa fa fa fa fa
@@garyz1982 Chino's good, but he can't compete with angel boy Scotty
@Rodzilla97 Chino is a solid #2 tho😂
Yes. And those drums are so goddamned devilish
@@kengray1663 what about Casey Tatum? he has a case for #2 spot as well
50 years old and he’s absolutely killing it. One of my all time fav front man!!

Pure 🔥🔥
It's so dope
Love this. Sounds so good. Been waiting forever for new music from Crosses. Can’t tell you how stoked I am for this. 🥵❤️🔥✝️✝️✝️🖤🥰
yo que vivo en Argentina me lo cruce y tengo foto con Chino envidiame! jaja
Great story!
Sorry you lived in Portland 😢
I'm so damn happy you guys revived this group. Y'all are absolutely killing it!!
Here's hoping Palms follows suit...
@@CognitiveApprenticethey put out new music like a year ago man
I agree bro, still a new crosses listener but been a Deftones fan for years!!!!
Hopefully team sleep too
@@CognitiveApprenticeMeh Palms was a miss imo
Sincerely you are the Depeche Mode of our generation. Thank you guys! Chino and Shawn you are incredible, love u so much!!
FACTS ❤❤❤ Chino and Shaun are badasses
Depeche Mode meets Duran Duran, but better than that. Nothing compares
Up until this comment I never knew HOW to describe it! YES! It’s totally like a new generation Depeche Mode
This... explains so much why I like Crosses.
Ojala
Why stop when your music keeps getting better and better. Nine years might be a long time, but this is music to carry for the rest of our lives.
So true. To some of us this music is going to be staples in our lives for the rest of our lives.
Grateful for it and can't wait for more!
Crosses keep topping themselves, Chino & Shaun are sonic soulmates
FACTS
Pause
God everything we've gotten the last few years was so worth the 6-7 year gap after the first album, this project is so special
"Ready or not, we’ve started a game"
Chino's voice is a fucking dream - always has been - always will be.
But Shaun and Chino together have created one helluva soundscape with this - one I am happily willing to lose myself in. Love the storytelling in this - it's beautiful and heavy and everything I could want. Instant favorite!
Love how experimental these guys are. Chino and co consistently put out the most beautiful sounds
Crosses, Deftones, Team Sleep... Su música es un oasis en éste desierto invadido por artistas mediocres. ¡Larga vida a Chino Moreno!
Don’t forget Palms
I wish they made at least one more team sleep album
Chino got some time in with Saudade 👋🫠
Right on!
Team Sleep is f'n amazing
This is crosses at it's best. I've listened to this song probably 100 times in the last couple of days.
This album is a multiple times a day rotation for me! I can't get enough!
Me too. I still listen to it. Probably my favorite song of 2023
For real yo
I'm 41 and feel like if I was ever lucky enough to meet Chino I'd cry. Like just straight up sob. Lol.

Idk how people aren't listening to this album on repeat, the whole thing is a banger ❤🔥
I am
That grimey beat is so wonderful. The editing in this video during those breakdowns is brilliant.
These two will never know just how much their music means to me. I've been a Deftones fan for a long time, at least 2004/2005, and EVERY project Chino works on is MAGICK.

I’m beyond DELIGHTED that Chino & Shaun met. What an amazing duo! Love the sick beats on this track and cannot wait for the album 🔥⛓️🥀
They grew up together!
@@adchilinI know 😀
Dude I saw this comment and was confused as hell. I'm like "wait, did I write this?"
Self titled album cover makes for a great pfp
@@matthewjakubowski9020 I’m in your head!

Is clear, and he has already said, that he loves Depeche mode 😊
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Ready or not
We've started a game
The rules are few and empty
Drip out of your heart
Reach out of your cell
Come in closer
Time your movement well
[Verse 2]
Reversed the rules again
Deciding how to win
Your turn at the cross
The way I see it’s your only shot
You covered in gowns
You'll wear never again
Getting closer, so close
[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like the rules been changed
Sometimes I feel like a ghost in chains
[Verse 3]
It's only a test
Take this chain into your hand
Offer up to the gods
Let’s pretend
We're getting closer, so close
this is what forward-thinking production really is. i got chills. what a harmony, melody and sound design. all the music since the last EP was fire
Saw these dudes like 3 weeks ago with my older brother, my best friend, and my 15 year old son, which was his first show, by the way. And they absolutely killed it!!

Agree!!!
Crosses has the ability to make every song familiar on the first listen, while being entirely new. I love that.
Had to come back to this song the next day for the beat, omg it's so sick. Vocals are great too.
These guys are on the same page. Just like with Deftones, every new song is unexpected, different, and amazing! I consider everything we get a gift, truly.
Chino got into a good shape. Glad for him, so he can do the music longer, because this is medicine
After a couple weeks of listening I think this has got to be my favorite crosses song

Yes we can. Rate them.
Thank you for not lieing!!!
I prefer team sleep to crosses. wish they'd actually come out with a second album.
The production of this video along with the music is a MASTERPIECE! Indescribable how amazing this is! 😍😭
Can't get enough, keep it coming! I've been enjoying all these new releases! ✝️✝️✝️
first palms, now crosses- WE NEED TEAM SLEEP!!!
praying
Team sleep was a super group that could’ve only happened at one moment in time.
I've re-watched this like 50 times in a row. Brilliant.
That bass is nasty.
I actually don’t have words for how good this is. From the very first second to the very last second. Truly a SONG
Ya know, I was having a not so great day. Then I watched this. The second Shaun first slams the keys on the keyboard, all the bad just f'ed right off! Thank you guys! Your works are amazing! Your music is helping pull me through strange and tough times. Thank you so much!

Awesome work, you guys are amazing artists!
Hands down out of all their albums and songs
This one is the best for me
It checks ✅ all the boxes
Holy crap this is perfection!!! I cannot stop listening.... that 80s / Industrial / Deftones ... man I cannot get enough
So, so, SO excited for this album. The first Crosses album is one of the best things Chino has ever done imo, and I love the direction of this song.
I listened to this song on a desert stretch of highway at sunset and saw the sea. Really fantastic, sophisticated, cinematographic. This formula is unbeatable.
The most vocal diverse singer ever!! My hero for 25 years!
That chorus is one of the most beautiful things I've heard.
The vibe this gives off. It cannot be matched.🖤✨
every talent that was put into this entire production oozes molten gold.. so fortunate to witness this as it grows
Ready or Not. Awesome track guys never disappointed
This is everything I never knew I always wanted
Awesome, just awesome. Glad to see Chino singing again!
The production for this is bananas. It's quite clear that Chinos' musical prowess is beyond us normal folk.
This is such a pleasant surprise and an utter delight! It's Friday afternoon in New Zealand and this is getting cranked all weekend! LOVE the production. How do you continue to innovate? I bloody love it!!! 🌹
I need way more Crosses in my life. Loving this period of activity.
this came out right when I graduated, your music got me through my Bachelor's degree, from Deftones to Palm.
Heavy Depeche Mode/Cure influence here. Chino's 80's Dark Wave proclivities are really showing in this project.
Chino voice gives me chills every time 😍🥵
this sound design is so fire
Love it! Now lets all hope we can get a Team sleep album after this one. my life would be complete.
I keep coming back to this song for that drop at 1:06. So good.
Chino looking good, glad he is taking care of himself and very happy we re actually getting a full length! Thought there would be a larger gap given the EP!
Chino bats 1000 for me. If he's involved, it's certain that I'll enjoy the hell out of it. Homie never misses.
First I listened to sensation by none other than Deftone's frontman Chino Moreno himself, but now this song and music video! This guy is unstoppable at creating amazing music and side projects!
my neighbor/friend was the little girl in the music video. she did a great job ❤
Loved this new song - it would be so cool to see Crosses and Drab Majesty do a show together
Realizing that you will never be able to create music this great is a pretty humbling experience...
Thank you Chino for your wonderful music and amazing voice! You are such an inspiration and good company at all times.
Game changer ...... give it 5 to 7 business days for the name of this beautifully done genre
I arrived back home from work, just to quickly play this video ♥ Love you, guys
been addicted to Deftones since i was 15 yrs old...their growth artistically is nxt lvl. That being said Ive never seen someone bounce back n forth weight wise like Chino. I pray hes healthy & with us for a very long time!
I raise you 13.
Don't worry about the weight thing. He loves his food and he loves his heaven residence.
the production is nuts... well done
15 seconds in and Chino is already sweaty lmao So happy Crosses is back!
Straight magic. Love how each tune is a story and like different rooms in one's mind. Very cool! Thanks fellaz for sharing your music sorcery with the rest of us. I can't wait to see what journey the next tune brings. ✌️💜🌞🌛🌝🌜
I can’t wait for more!
Before: "is this a test?"
Now: "it's ONLY a test"
That's growth! 🙏
Wow! I like the development of Crosses. They jumped over themselves!
I'll have this on repeat❤ Y'all knocked it out of the park and keep evolving with better sound. Thank you!
Crosses gives me a feeling that's so hard to explain but it's so surreal- and it's so comforting to me
This is beyond dope.
these guys are like 50 and still pushing boundaries and stretching genres...it's such a rare thing.
Amo lo cómodo y feliz que se ve Chino en este proyecto, nos largó un EP el año pasado y ahora se viene discazo con 15 canciones, se nota que le encanta lo que logran ❤
these guys have become masters of catchyness and amazing choruses, damn they dont miss,give me a crosses song that doesnt have a chorus that slaps.
Not even god could do that lol
Incredible! I think this might be the best yet!
Crosses- Invisible Hand (Early Aug 2023)0:09 1:00 1:40
Depeche Mode meets Duran Duran
So hyped for the new album!
More Moreno?
Yes, Please.
Simply the Best
Deftones n crosses are a masterpiece at making music will never go away been a Deftones fan since 98 Chino is my favorite singer of all time
Great new single. Awesome you're constantly creating.
Fire per usual gentleman. Keep up the absolutely amazing work.
these fellas never miss
This live… is crazy!!!
Oh hell yea! This got me zoning out amd just grovin

Incredible beats. ✝️✝️✝️ always have something unique and refreshing. Thank god for Chino and Shaun.
Soon as I heard this song, I knew it was going to be part of my playlist...
Finally JUSTICE is back with a sequel to their debut CROSS. I’m so pumped for this duo to be back!
This sounds very different but I’m ready to hear the whole album before I make any judgement.
Love these guys! 🤘🏿
They never miss
this is so great!
Crosses is killing it with all the new material this year. Chino, you're the real deal. always will be.
This track is a whole vibe
Crazy these dudes probably have known each other since the late 80s/early90s and only started Crosses in the 2010s. Amazing. Shaun is a beast producer. Don't forget he also helped finish SNW! And no matter what you think of the record(I love Saturday Night Wrist) Bob and Shaun did amazing work.
First time listening to this band great stuff ❤❤
