As far as Sergio Vega, he's been a friend of Deftones for a while and has filled in as bassist for them before, so there's a history. It's not just a random dude from a random band.

And yea, I actually didn't like Rocket Skates as much as the rest either. Although I think the last track is the weakest (This Place Is Death).
Those are probably the only two songs I don't really "look forward to hearing" if you know what I mean. The rest of the album, I find myself loving the song that's on, and simultaneously wanting to skip it just to hear the other songs I love.
It's, for me, a very rewarding listening experience.
The last album, Saturday Night Wrist, was totally the opposite and, in my opinion, their worst album.
I'm so glad this album is good enough to be a redeemer.
