Isis And Deftones Members Form New Band Palms

  Chino Moreno the frontman for the Deftones might be in competition with Dave Grohl to see how many projects he can join.

  ISIS members Aaron Harris, Clifford Meyer and Jeff Caxide have formed a band with Moreno called Palms.  "Clifford, Jeff and I started Palms a little over a year ago out of desire to continue making music together after ISIS ended." said Harris.  "Chino joined shortly after and our sound took shape from there.  We've worked really hard on this first release and are excited for people to hear it.  It's nice to be back behind the drum kit, and with this line up."

  Palms debut album will be released later this year.  A official release date has not been announced.

  Moreno said of the project. "Being a huge ISIS fan I've always dug the moods these dudes convey with their sound.  I am excited to combine my sense of creativity with theirs, and to have fun doing so."   This news comes after a big announcement earlier this week that Deftones will be joined by System of a Down on a summer tour.

  Deftones are currently in the studio recording their seventh studio album.  Chino is in for a busy summer.
