Deftones

You’ve got to see this shit, kids.

The Deftones played in Baltimore last night, and wouldn’t you know it! Bad Brains vocalist H.R. joined the band for a cover of the D.C. hardcore punk band’s own “Right Brigade.”

He stayed on stage for the Deftones’ “Bored” even.

You can see fan-filmed footage of the on-stage collaboration at the end of this post.

I hope this somehow yields a cool side project with Chino Moreno and H.R.

Bassist Sergio Vega Tweeted about the momentous occasion.

“Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine I would perform a song w HR!!! Thanx Baltimore!! #RightBrigade #badbrains #deftonesporvida”

Both bands have new albums coming soon. The Deftones will release Koi No Yokan on November 13 and The Bad Brains’ Into The Future will drop a week later on November 20.

Budget now so you can purchase both.
