✝✝✝ (Crosses) - ✝✝✝ (Crosses) (2014) [Hi-Res]

BAND/ARTIST: ✝✝✝ (Crosses)

A dark electronic side project formed by Deftones singer Chino Moreno, Far guitarist Shaun Lopez, and bassist Chuck Doom, Crosses focus on the more soothing side of alternative, blending dream pop, synth pop, trip-hop, and ambient influences while emphasizing mood and melody over raw aggression. Formed in 2011, the trio tested the waters with a pair of EPs before issuing their self-titled debut full-length in 2014. Quiet for the remainder of the decade, they returned in 2020 with the single "The Beginning of the End."

The project was started by Lopez and Doom, who had been collaborating before Moreno completed the trio. Influenced by new wave, Crosses were a stark contrast to Moreno's alternative metal band Deftones, but tapped into the music he enjoyed when he was growing up. Their first material arrived in August 2011. EP1 featured Duff McKagan on "This Is a Trick" and Chris Robyn on drums. EP2 followed in January 2012, landing in the Top Ten on the U.S. Heatseekers chart. Rather than release a third EP, the group simply took the tracks from that planned released and combined them with the songs from EP1 and EP2 for their official full-length debut Crosses, which was released in 2014 on Sumerian Records. The LP shot to number 26 on the Billboard 200.

Not much was heard from the act for the rest of the 2010s. On Christmas Eve, 2020, they surprised fans by releasing a cover of Cause & Effect's early-'90s synth pop gem "The Beginning of the End." ~ Neil Z. Yeung
