Deftones dazzle Boston with energetic TD Garden show
'You've Seen the Butcher,' from 2008′s 'Diamond Eyes,' opens with riffs that resemble a malfunctioning car ignition before the song explodes into a hiccupping, grinding chronicle of obsession, while 'Sextape,' also from that album, is searching and cavernous, Moreno looking for metaphysical clarity and closure while tethered to Earth. The encore-opening 'Minerva,' from the band's 2003 self-titled album, pairs sweeping riffs with a churning low end, giving Moreno's stretched-out syllables ample room to soar.

The Deftones fanbase has steadily grown in multiple directions since their debut 'Adrenaline' came out in 1995. Newer bands proudly cite them as an influence, the genres their music has touched on over the years get freshly discovered by younger listeners, and older rock enthusiasts who missed them the first time around unearth them on streaming services. The audience was solidly cross-generational, with the general-admission ticket holders on the floor erupting into push-and-shove mosh pits as a testament to their collective appreciation.

From the first note, Tuesday's show provided a dazzling example of why Deftones have become part of rock's firmament. The band closed their set with the thwacking 'Adrenaline' cut '7 Words,' a scrappy young cousin of skate-metallers Suicidal Tendencies' angst-ridden 1983 touchstone 'Institutionalized' that allowed Moreno to lead the arena in one final, frenzied freakout, placing an exclamation point on the room's shared catharsis.

Foo Fighters, Chappell Roan & Linkin Park to Headline Corona Capital 2025
Foo Fighters, Chappell Roan and Linkin Park will headline the 15th edition of the Corona Capital festival, which will also mark the highly anticipated return of Deftones to Mexican stages after nearly a decade, promoter OCESA announced on Tuesday (June 3). The exciting lineup for the annual rock festival — scheduled to take place from Nov. 14 to Nov. 16 at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City — also includes Queens of the Stone Age, Franz Ferdinand, Garbage, Vampire Weekend, Alabama Shakes and Weezer. More from Billboard Jessie J Reveals 'Early Breast Cancer' Diagnosis: 'Cancer Sucks in Any Form' Big Thief Announce New Album, 'Double Infinity' Neil Young Invites Donald Trump to Summer Tour 'If There Is Not Martial Law by Then' 'Corona Capital is not just a festival — it's a bridge between cultures, emotions, and generations,' Memo Parra, director of international events at OCESA, tells Billboard Español. 'Since 2010, it has evolved into one of the most important festivals in the world, attracting thousands of fans from every corner of the globe to Mexico.' Parra emphasized that, with an attendance of 255,000 people per edition and a team of over 5,000 making it possible, Corona Capital is 'living proof of the power of music to bring us together.' Close to 70 artists and bands make up the 2025 lineup, including Aurora, Damiano David, James, Of Monsters and Men, AFI, Jerry Cantrell, Jehnny Beth, TV On The Radio, 4 Non Blondes, Circa Waves, Mogwai, Shermanology, Jordan Rakei, Kadavar and The Struts, among others. But the participation of Deftones will undoubtedly be one of the standout moments. The last time the Sacramento, California-based rock band performed in Mexico City was in 2014. In an interview with Billboard Español published in February, vocalist Chino Moreno said that they were in talks for what could be their big return to the country. Another highly anticipated act is Queens of the Stone Age, who had to cancel its 2024 shows — including one at the Corona Capital festival — due to health issues affecting singer and guitarist Josh Homme. 'What truly sets Corona Capital apart is its musical curation: a carefully crafted selection that has made music the backbone of the festival,' Parra adds, highlighting that people come not only to see their favorite artists, but also to 'discover new sounds and be surprised.' Corona Capital will take place in the context of the centennial celebration of the beer Corona, the festival's sponsor. Leading up to the event in November, celebrations will be held in several cities across the country under the name Corona Capital Sessions. The presale for Banamex cardholders will take place on Friday (June 6), with the general sale beginning the following day. In its 15 years of existence, Corona Capital has solidified itself as the most important international music festival in Mexico, and one of the few in Latin America featuring major English-speaking bands. In the past, it has hosted renowned acts such as Paul McCartney, Jack White, The Cure, Muse, Blur, Nine Inch Nails, Portishead, Interpol, Billie Eilish, Pixies and Richard Ashcroft. 'More than 500 international artists have taken the stage, performing for a curious, open-minded, and passionate crowd that has helped us build a space where inclusion, social impact, and Mexican cultural traditions are celebrated and shared with the world,' Parra says.

Demi Lovato's Wedding Nails Are Not What We Expected
All products featured on Allure are independently selected by Allure editors. However, when you buy something through our retail links, Condé Nast may earn an affiliate commission. Getty Images Congratulations, Demi Lovato! The singer tied the knot with Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes on May 25 in California and looked absolutely stunning from head to toe. But one element of her wedding-day immediately look stood out as a bit of a surprise: the bridal manicure! Lovato is known for her edgy style—think lots of leather, tattoos, and sleek silhouettes. Instead of a shiny black manicure, a deep and romantic red, or gray chrome, which is what we would have predicted for Lovato's wedding set, the musician chose a classic soft, barely there polish for the big day. Lovato worked with longtime manicurist Natalie Minerva on two similar-but-not-identical sets for the wedding weekend. For the first evening, the two landed on a combination of OPI's Nail Lacquer in Passion, a sheer neutral pink, and For the Fill of It, a pro-only warm pink shade. On the wedding day, Lovato chose Pearl-Clutching Behavior, which Minerva describes as a 'softer, more milky nude.' Minerva shaped the star's nails into medium-length rounded almonds and painted a few delicate coats of color atop the nails for a sweet, whisper-light set that looked so good with Lovato's Vivienne Westwood gown and sparkling diamond ring. Minerva came prepared for the occasion with an entire lineup of nail options in a similar palette, including OPI's beloved Bubble Bath, and also gave the groom a wedding-day manicure. Many brides choose nearly naked or milky nails on their wedding day as it's a timeless look that suits a variety of bridal styles. When we polled nail pros for their favorite 2025 wedding manicure trends, they spotlighted soft matte sets, pearl-studded French manis, and all-white nails, perfect for a neutrals-with-a-twist vibe. Nude and blush-pink styles may reign supreme for walking down the aisle, but if you're more of a color person, you could also try an on-theme baby blue (as the 'something blue,' of course) or cherry red, similar to Lovato's sheer 'cherry Jello nails' from earlier this spring. Either way, you, like Lovato, will be headed for a happily ever after!
