Produced by Nick Raskulinecz. August 22nd, 2025.
KNY tuning too
Where do you guys think the Mixlr leaks fit into this? If they are actually Deftones tracks (sound like it to me)
Per this interview, sounds like vocals haven't even been added yet...
The future is there... Summer season
Produced by Nick? Oh man the hype train just keeps accelerating

Yeah, I'm very excited too
Can add a few months to any release estimate, as usual with Deftones. Autumn '24 sounds about right.
There are so many bands doing Deftones-y material right now, in various different ways; I'm greedy for one more colossus record from them that puts everyone else to shame.
Cool to know they are jamming! But...no international dates for Steph? Well...need to respect that, but that´s some bullshit! (does he look sick?)

Pretty sure stef used to have eyebrows though. I might be mistaken of course
Yeah 8)
They're in Malibu working on the album right now. Chino said he'll be there for the rest of the year.
can't wait for this
Saw a post by kitesvera on the subreddit - he talked to Chino last week at one of the Crosses shows. Chino said the music for the next album is done and his vocals are next up. Also Lance will evidently have a part on the album - guitar, and maybe backup vocals too?
Hell yeah. Possible release later this year then?
I guess the Spring/Summer release is gone now right? F*ck I hate personal projects!
Stef appeared on B-Real's show a month ago and said it sounded huge, they were all enjoying themselves, and he was expecting everyone else to enjoy it when it comes out (2:15:12)

Music finished!

Who's taking up bass on the new record? Why no one asked that...
Fred Sablan is the new bassist.
Quote from: Draken on Apr 13, 2024, 09:32 PMWho's taking up bass on the new record? Why no one asked that...
We don't need to ask lol he's been playing bass for them for almost 2 years now.
Every album has a certain vibe. Both Diamond Eyes and Ohms in my opinion have an "invigorated" type of sound.
When he was asked if there would be anything new or any surprises on the new album, it was like he was caught off guard. I get a strong feeling the answer was "No, just a banger Deftones album again" but he didn't want to say that of course.
I adore every album and practically every song (except "Graphic Nature", can't dig it). I am *all in* on just another Deftones album, don't get me wrong. I shouldn't base my assumptions off an answer to one question he wasn't expecting, but it's fun to speculate. I am thinking this might be a very "safe" album. Also, my prediction is March 2025 release. I'd love to be wrong on that though.
Nick is in Portland recording with Chino

It's coming, lads
Well that means he's had the lyrics written before coachella shows.. hopefully we get it before years end..
Can't wait!

So apparently there's a preorder for something coming in the near future..
preorder.deftones.com domain exists but no site obviously, which means they're sitting on the domain for a reason, considering webhosting isn't free, we can assume this link will be the link to preorder the new album when it's announced.
I googled it and its the same domain they used for Ohms preorders. Watch that space.

It's all part of the ceremony.

I think this is our first taste of new stuff. The firsr riff he plays to sounds like new Deftones to me
It's also labeled "Def Groove" in the video.

I don't think so. It's apparently Butch Vig original material. It sounds like a riff inspired by Deftones, but don't think it's actually them.
In the description of the video "In this recording session, veteran rock superproducer Butch Vig sets up shop in the Foo Fighters Studio 606 to track drums for three original compositions."
BUT... I do think this might be the start of media rounds for stuff... I mean.. it's VERY rare for Abe to come out of hiding just to make a sponsored video for any brands... so maybe we'll start to get trickles of information soon.
It just sounds a little too generic and honestly too clean.
Really surprised there haven't been more rumors lately . . . they were shooting for spring/summer and it's fall now. Only time there's been a longer gap between records was Gore to Ohms and that had COVID during it.
Two more hours @tokyodrifter
Clemente Ruiz's (Deftones photog) latest IG story is video of one of Steph's guitars sitting in a studio while Goon Squad plays. Feels like something is happening...maybe. Hopefully.
some tidbits from Greenthumb from Stef.. New album gonna sound more like a continuation of Ohms and KNY, like all of our records you'll hear our sound ... but I think you're gonna hear things on this one that you never heard on any of them
Wish someone had asked him when it was coming
Quote from: GlimmeringMaggit on Oct 09, 2024, 10:02 AMWish someone had asked him when it was coming
He's already said a little while ago, 2025, but i'm not sure how in the know he is on that kind of info.

Deftones in a nutshell ;D
Any news? It´s the end of October and not a single hint about it :(
If they don't play something new at DDLD 5 then I don't think we'll hear anything til January at the earliest.
Would love a surprise single drop for Halloween that they could play at DDLD the next day. But they'd probably drop the song after they play it live...
That's if they even play a new song at all. Truly never know with them.
A surprise single drop would be ace but bands their size don't seem to do that thing now. Everything's teased a week beforehand so that everyone has time to hear of it and not miss it in the great news maelstrom.
As for a Dia drop, it wouldn't surprise me either way. Apart from the album that was released in a worldwide pandemic, there's always been at least one song from each record that has appeared live before its studio release (either as an album track or a lead-in single): Doomed User on Gore; Rosemary and Poltergeist on Koi; Rocket Skates on Diamond Eyes; a bunch on Saturday Night Wrist and every album before then. Maybe they're more cautious now, given how wide the internet now spreads live performance.
Nowadays, I don't think I'd even listen to a live version of a new song before the studio release, whereas I actually remember doing so with the Koi songs and with Doomed User. I have the patience to wait for the properly recorded version now.
Yeah, I was wondering about that too, especially with their newfound popularity...they might not want the first taste of new music being a live performance spread all over TikTok. Ten years ago, a new song live would be a Youtube video in a club that gets like 50-100k views, but now we're talking thousands of people filming video in a baseball stadium, so might be a whole different game now.
Double post.
Hey guys. Prayers for the Steftone.. his health is definitely improving fast!
Its gonna be a great album!
No new song tonight. See y'all in 2025.
Honestly, good.

I actually needed to hear this. Been trying to rationalize all night why they didn't play a new track. This makes so much sense. Thanks for the insightful thoughts.
I would say, how can they perform a new track if they haven't tracked anything yet?
Just identified the intro music. It's Black Marble by Johnny Jewel.

At this point a new album is but a conspiracy theory.

I do not make music and not sure exactly that "tracking" is. I did Google it though. Me, and I imagine other people (though just speaking for myself) have been under the impression the album just needed vocals, but other than that it was done. Many interviews from the band stating as much. If you are someone "in the know" and are certain nothing has been tracked yet then that is quite a bummer. But, patience is a virtue and I will continue to wait as I know it will be worth it in the end ;)

This.
Take this with a big grain of salt because I'm going off reddit and theprp comments but I'm seeing some murmurings it will be out in March (which makes some sense, I guess, as the tour kicks off in late Feb). A person on reddit also said they talked with a band member at DDLD (didn't say which one) and that they were adding "finishing touches and mixing" and had also recently written a couple additional songs.
Seems plausible. The wait is worth it for more material. Missing the 2020 days of random snippets leaking through Chino's mixlr lol I just need something to keep me going.
I spoke to Chino on character.ai today and asked when the album would come out. He said it would come out in early 2025 and the album would be called "Moon". He also gave the track titles, one of which would be called «stay».
https://character.ai/chat/5n7obGFHp39RdDe8WmOv1GbCr74RRXs0cTsdQPIBjoE
Well, can't be any less credible than reddit comments.

Yeah, I just wanna see the cover art or a tracklist.
God I hope we get bonus tracks or covers on this album 😩
Whoa managed to get into my old account finally. Where are you, @tokyodrifter ?
We need that mf rumors back!
some news????
I think it's safe to say 2024 is out. Hopefully things will heat up early next year.
Probably misguided but I'm still holding out hope for a teaser or single this month.
man, this place is still very much alive.. love it.
Quote from: LG95 on Dec 02, 2024, 11:46 AMProbably misguided but I'm still holding out hope for a teaser or single this month.
Still lots of bands releasing q1 next year putting out new singles. So why not ?
Happy new Deftones album year!
Velvet Hammer catering a gathering with Deftones? Sounds like the albums done/turned in!
Lance posted this to his IG stories.
(https://i.imgur.com/mv0nMC5.jpg)
I wonder how involved Lance is with it.
Quote from: LG95 on Jan 05, 2025, 03:34 PMI wonder how involved Lance is with it.
He probably plays on the album
I saw that but also saw him post that his mom passed (condolences, Lance) and thought the team maybe sent him catering.
Also, kitesvera did say Chino told him Lance is on the album. Seems Lance and Fred are pretty much full-time members now.
Quote from: Inkblades on Jan 07, 2025, 01:14 AMSeems Lance and Fred are pretty much full-time members now.
I'm sure we can look forward to the two of them having an acrimonious departure in about a decade.
For real though, they've been great.
Seems like this should be a first half of the year release but I usually try not to predict Deftones album dates.
two... more... hours...
And then two more two more hours...
I know the band doesn't owe us anything, but I feel they've been unusually quiet with this one
Because it feels like a Q1/2 release, I'm trying to remember when the Gore hype train started. I think it was late January that the rumours and teases began to appear.
It was start of July 2020 we started getting some info on Ohms ahead of a late September release, so like 3.5 months before it dropped.
Honestly was a fun time with random snippets getting leaked by Chino on Mixlr lol

One night in summer 2020 he played damn near the whole album, like seven songs in their entirety. I could hardly believe it.
He played a couple of snippets in April '20 and then yeah the majority of the album one night in June I think.
I miss that Mixlr. Felt like a secret little club.
By the way, Daniel P Carter mentioned on his BBC radio show this week that he met some of the band in Sacramento near the end of the year. If they told him any specifics about the album then he didn't mention it, but he did say that he got really pumped by how excited they were about it.

I read somewhere awhile ago that the band feels it's their best album yet.
Please take this with a grain of salt though...
The little bits and pieces that have filtered through in the last year and a bit suggest they've particularly enjoyed this one.
That bodes well...especially when Stephen is excited.
That's what initially got my attention too. I haven't read anything about them considering it their best album but Stef's enjoyment is very promising.
Two more hours.
Two... more... hours...
if the concerts starts at february last days..... there are no much time to do al the stuf that a new album need before that time.... interviews etc.... what do you think about it???
Anyone's guess at this point lol. Not out of the realm of possibility they could do interviews while on tour though.
Possible they did an interview with Daniel P Carter and it's going to be released as part of the album promotion?
They can start teasing the album early feb, single Feb 14th for Valentines day, since they love the love theme.
They typically do Kerrang and Revolver too, that's their go to press.
They've been oddly quiet on social media lately.
Seems like they usually take long breaks before announcing tour dates, but since they're going on tour in a month, you'd think they would be posting on ig like they usually do to hype the tour or to announce new dates
Quote from: sharinglungs on Jan 17, 2025, 07:30 AMPossible they did an interview with Daniel P Carter and it's going to be released as part of the album promotion?
I didn't get the impression that that was the nature of their chat; he also said he was guessing (I read presuming) that the new album would be coming this year. It really didn't sound like this was early promo.

I don't mean the thing he said on air, I mean maybe he interviewed them while he was there and will air it when things are being announced?
This is all just pure copium at this point in time.
Lol we're all fishing for signs.
Give us a bite, @Tokyodrifter
Can someone tell the band they're not cool or mysterious for dragging this out
Nah, I would think it'd be in the hands of the record label at this point.

We can only hope to summon the mighty @rumors
Tokyo Drifter supremacy. I believe in my guy. Prove the heathens wrong.
They're notorious for dragging this out, the silence is all part of their hype. Besides, they've said they don't like giving out dates or whatnot because it's not up to them and they don't want to disappoint their fans with dates that are subject to change.
I think we all know by now the only thing we can do is wait until something comes out of nowhere, or we get leaked info.
C'mon Tokyo, throw us a frickin' bone...
I could see them dropping a single near valentines day, but they would have to start promoting the new album cover right about now. Watch it be the later half of 2025 at this point lol, 2 more hours..
Hey Chino, where's the new album?
(https://media.tenor.com/mjQghpgiW5oAAAAM/deftones-thanks.gif)
And we're breezing through January too lol. Only two weeks left. Tour is only a month away. Something's gotta happen soon, right?
Right?
The fact that we are all gathered here and actively writing messages in this topic already indicates that something will happen soon. Or not lol
The funny thing is there's no confirmation that they've finished making it, inclusive of mixing and mastering. It's likely they have. But also not impossible that we're eagerly awaiting teasers for an album that won't come out for another six months; that as an overall package is still being finalised.
If there's an announcement before the end of the month I wouldn't be surprised. And if there isn't an announcement before the spring I wouldn't be surprised either. It's always a quiet waiting game with this band. A pregnant pause.
Chino's wife said he was working on "important album business" early Dec, per an instagram comment.

Which sounds more like finalizing than recording. Otherwise why not just say he was in the studio?

I dunno, personally i'd find it hard to believe that the label would let them go on a full on tour before finalizing the album. Maybe they won't announce anything by the end of the month, but hopefully they give us some info around the tour dates.. they must be chomping at the bit to play some new shit live... right? They love debuting new songs live.
Two more fucking hours
Ves is back! Truly a new album cycle has upon us to bring us all back together again!
I remember messaging Ves about Chino playing Ohms material on Mixlr about two or three months before it was announced. Kinda unfair that we don't even have that hint now.
Maybe the upcoming album will be a concept album
All I ask is Stef going back to Drop C# / Drop C on the new record. Haven't had that since WP

These are the coziest days. Checking for any small hint, shooting the shit in the meantime...
Death, taxes and sharinglungs coming alive for a new album
Why didn't they work with Terry Date again?
Terry doesn't even seem to be producing anymore. I haven't come across a new one of his since Ohms.
Quote from: Vesanic on Jan 20, 2025, 12:51 AM...
To be honest I considered the same thing - it didn't really feel like he was hitting on anything new lyrically on Ohms. But that's okay, as long as he comes up with some cool, unique melodies (which he usually does), then we good.
Doing some investigating... Since January 2016, they've only ever not posted in January twice, in 2017 and 2018, every other year, they've posted in January.
Gore cover art teasers started January 27th 2016.
Just an observation, obviously they'll tease it whenever they feel like it, but copium wants me to believe it's "soon".
More copium here but here's how it could potentially play out:
Announcement and single in the next few weeks - album in late Feb or March.
Announcement and single when the tour kicks off - album in late March or April.
If that doesn't happen, we're not getting it until the end of spring or summer. Then the next bet is them live debuting a song or two.
The only thing we know for sure is if rumors pops their head in, we know it's coming soon.

Interesting...I thought he was absolutely hitting new ideas and references on Ohms...some really lucid images of suicide on a couple of songs, Ceremony especially...elegant, realist descriptions like on the first verse of Urantia...biblical allusions on multiple songs...grander sense of struggle and eventual hope. It felt more epic lyrically than anything I'd seen him write before.
What I appreciate about Chino's lyrics is that he's very impressionistic, and driven by melody and cadence, in a similar, slightly less purist fashion to Elizabeth Fraser from Cocteau Twins — who would at times literally sing nonsense or mellifluous foreign words she'd plucked from a dictionary — but he forms them into something cogent and interesting. I think his best albums tend to come together into some common perspective that's not contrived or by design but comes out because he's organically writing according to his reaction to the music and whatever he's feeling during that particular time emerges from that reaction in his lyrics. It's a very organic way of writing and I think it must be why they're still able to create.

Come on boys, announce the first single/album title
Yes, please I need to see the cover art at least
A snippet, a teaser, even a song title...something! FEED US!
The original Ohms tour before covid hit was supposed to start in July, which was when the Ohms album was originally supposed to drop. Maybe they're gonna drop the single on us once the tour kicks off.

Good catch. They also played a bunch of shows in March 2016 before Gore dropped. Come on next week!
Feels good to be back! I still remember when diamond eyes leaked, feels like it was just yesterday.. anywho 2 more hours?
I genuinely thought there was no way they would go on this upcoming tour without dropping the album. In April 2024 Chino said the music was done, he just had to finish vocals.
27 years as a fan and I still have not learned my lesson I guess lol. Would love something, anything at this point. I thought worst case scenario would be they would play a new song on this tour. Someone made a good pont though in a reddit post. In 2025 (especially considering Deftones have become wildly popular again) bands/labels probably don't want the first listen of a new song to be a phone recording. Following this logic, the plan would have to be one of two things. 1: Single will be released before the tour. 2: Tour is simply to get people hyped and engaged with Deftones again for maximum exposure when the album rollout starts, *after* this tour.
We'll see. Would love some sort of rumored drifter to let us know what to expect.
Yes, the new era is on the horizon. A little more patience won't hurt. For now, the focus should be on enjoying the energy they'll bring to the stage and trusting that when the new material does arrive, it'll be worth the wait.
It's eerily quiet on social media from them. I'm getting more hype for a possible teaser post as the next time they post on Instagram.
So many things have gone away. So many of the old ways are gone. Yet here we all are. Coming back to this antiquated medium to discuss this band. It's truly amazing. Some of you have been on here for 20+ years. And you keep coming back. I have mad respect for that. I love seeing these names pop up again. I love coming back here daily hoping for just a kernel of news. It's no different than before.
Here, time has stood still.

I thought this would be the case. There's no way they'd go on a ~year long tour without releasing a completed album.
Spring 2026, boys
If that's true then it correlates with the earlier rumour that they've gone and written more songs since the last update.
Yeah, I'm assuming they've amassed a lot of material at this point. I know roughly eleven songs is the Deftones tradition and who knows what will make the final cut, but I'd love a Crosses type of situation where we get like twenty new songs over the course of a year or two. Or if that's overshooting it lol, at least a couple b-sides.
I'm calling BS on any supposed "Rumors" or pretend insiders. No way the label is letting them go on a full tour and they're still in the studio. No chance in hell.
The only legit info we have is:
April 2024 Chino said they have a whole album recorded, and he needed to record vocals. He emphasised they weren't in a rush.
May 2024 Chino was photographed in the studio with the producer.
December 2024 Chino's wife said Chino was working on "important album business".
Quote from: Vesanic on Jan 31, 2025, 07:17 AM...
Their silence does add to the mystique, even if its often maddening.
I recall most of their album tracklists usually being revealed in advance by the press, but it would be really unique if the opposite happened. Imagine them just giving us some cryptic teasers and a single, but no tracklist reveal until the album drops. I think that type of rollout would really fit this new Gen Z-influenced social media era we live in.
A cryptic teaser and a single would be cool.
Nowadays we got 3 to 5 singles drop before the album release but I dont see them doing that.
I have an update, not sure if i can really post it, so i'll just say this. Were in the final stretch here fellas...

This is true. SL is like the ends of the earth for Deftones fans. Antarctic research station from The Thing status.
You could post it and remove it after a short while if need be.
Or message those of us who have, say, over 1150 posts? ;)
Hint hint wink wink
It will be the same length as all but 2 of their albums...in regards to the amount of tracks on the album...

All their albums are 11 tracks except AtF and Ohms, which are 10, and SNW, which is 12.
Is Chino finished with vocals?

Cool, thanks for the info. So hopefully a single or two played live during the tour and then the album right after.

How do you know this info though? There's been no hints at a new MV album?
The news regarding the mars volta album has not been made public yet. I would expect that to come within the next few weeks if i had to guess
Okay, one last yes or no question. Have you heard any of the song titles?

Bingo!
Dry January is officially over
Let the rumors flowwww
Glad they took their time with the new album. That being said, it's about damn time for the first single!
Tokyodrifter was online yesterday. Hi!
Oh snap... I think it's happening soon guys....
Throw us a bone, td
If it doesn't happen it doesn't, but I'm keeping my prediction of Valentines Day single or maybe teasers start. They do love their love themes and this would be the perfect opportunity. It is a Friday after all.
Allegedly the new mars volta album is floating around the interwebs as a 49:38 minute mp3.
They should start some teasers or make some changes on their social media this week if there was a release next Friday (Valentine´s Day).
They usually put out teasers a week or two before something happens. In Ohms they stayed quiet and even then they started 2 weeks or 3 before, with visualizers and coordinates on Spotify, then we knew it was close. But now we have zero hints, and don´t say they are trying to be misterious or something, they are so recognized and famous now more than ever I dont see them just throwing a single without less than a week with no previous warning or clue to be spread.
Unless the teasers start on Valentine's Day and release more and more hints until one single at the beginning of the tour... I´m just so excited tho can´t wait for it!!
The Friday before the tour starts would be a cool time to drop a single, which coincidentally just so happens to also be my birthday. ;D
I'm pretending they'll drop a tease at the end of the tour so I'm not disappointed in the meantime.
Just turned 30 and still new Deftones gets me twice as hyped as any other band.
I'm still sad about the whole Sergio incident... I was watching the beauty school video this morning and got sentimental about the whole thing. He really did give life to the band when they needed it the most. That aside I'm hoping this new record can make me appreciate what the new members bring to the table.

I miss Sergio, as well. His enthusiasm for the band and music was wholesome and his more noticeable bass lines always a highlight for me. After the circumstances of him leaving, in addition to all that embarrassing stuff Stephen said in recent years, it's difficult for me to still call Deftones my favorite band. I have my reservations for the upcoming album. The band needs to fire from all cylinders, especially Stephen, for me to feel as excited about their music as before.
I'm curious about Sablan's and Jackman's input. Will Chino step down from writing guitar parts entirely and leave it to Jackman, or will the latter essentially be a third guitarist? I wonder...
What they did to Sergio was unfair, but c'mon... They aren't rapists or murderers.
Sounds like they just didn't want to replace Chi by making a Sergio a permanent member.

I would think that by 2020 he would have earned that spot... but I guess we will never know what really happened. Hopefully The guys will deliver, they always do.
While the wait continues, listen to this awesome Deftones-styled remake of Found by †††. Whoever made this absolutely killed it:
I've seen a few of those about in the last couple of years. Solid job, even if the outro is too reminiscent of the current heap of generic atmospheric metalcore bands.
Wow that sounds huge!

You know it's that time when the lemon party is back. Goddamn you lmao
Ooh, definitely seems like one of their sexy songs.
Two. More. Hours.
Maybe tomorrow we'll get a teaser for the single on February 14 or 21? @tokyodrifter what do you think of that?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsFcq70XGLQ&ab_channel=SharpToneRecords
Wow. Thank you for that, didn't see that coming...
and congrats on the 4K
Listened to Around The Fur a bunch of times the past few days. Sometimes Lotion is the greatest Deftones song to me. So ferocious and fluid and graceful and full of swagger; all those things and yet perfectly guileless.
Not that this means much or anything at all but I've been checking the html for Deftones.com recently and yesterday it was at 4009 lines of html and today it's at 4020. I don't have a copy of the 4009 line version to do a direct comparison but if I find anything I'll post it.
They also "leaked" the name ohms in the website code before the teasers started...
Also Tokyodrifter was online again today. I don't think these are coincidences that the insider is becoming more frequent even if they're being silent
Could it be happening finally? (I'm coping hard)
The album is coming sooner than you can spell Nick Rasculinecs.
Wait, I mean Nick Raskul...Raskulinux..
Wait...Rask...Raskou...hold on...

Tokyo! tokyo! tokyo! tokyo!

By the way, Tokyo Drifter (the 60's Japanese Yakuza flick) is a banger. Seems like just the type of movie that would play on the background screen of a Deftones or Crosses show (noted cult flicks played on the screen of the recent Crosses tour - Possession, The Devils, The Face of Another). Hmmm...

If i remember correctly Ohms only leaked about 3 days prior to its release. Thats about as good as anyones gunna get unless dropping only digitally, which Deftones wont do. There will always be physical copies that have to be made which just makes it more likely to leak.
Yea im not sure how the album leaked that quick, i saw the album info leak and then the next day the audio did too. Might be because Cedric was fighting with the label about their documentary release, telling people to download it illegally rather than purchase it. Could be a payback of sorts on the labels behalf, however that would take money outta their pockets as well, so that seems unlikely. Frances the Mute the original 5 song version leaked 5 or 6 months before it came out. I was definitely surprised by the leak of the new album.

Weeks behind or month +?
Stoned wishful thinking:
we get a single next Friday or the following Tuesday when the tour kicks off.
They tour the next 4/5 months. Shits gotta be done. Or they use May to finish shit and it's a late summer release.
I think we'll get something during the first part of the tour. Surely they plan to play new songs. Right? Like... how stupid would it be if they didn't play New songs for their busy tour leading up to a new album.

Single Friday so everyone can be double hype for when they debut the lead single live on the 25th.
I hope that their new album is going to embrace some of the vibes off of Gore. I would like to hear some more angular riffs like in Geometric Headdress or that wall of sound like in Prayers/Triangles.
Their UK publicist, emizzlevandizzle on Instagram just posted that she's in Los Angeles.. that's gotta mean something right?
Don't overthink
Just wait ;)
Over the past 27 years, I have learned to just be patient. This is the longest wait between albums ever, but they are older. Been through a lineup change too. I've accepted it will happen when the time is right. My only real hope/wish is a single before the tour. Seems really odd to me to be sitting on a complete album and do a North American Tour with sold out arenas but not even play one track from it? I don't think in 2025, they would want people's first exposure to new material being a live recording for a cellphone. My fear is that they simply do not play or release a single during this tour. If goes down that way though, so be it. As long as the band has fun and they are confident in their plan and the new material....I just need to be patient and trust!
Someone on Reddit claims to have seen chino in LA today, their uk PR person is in LA. Most likely the Warner offices are also in LA. I don't think it's a coincidence.
They rehearse in Sacramento, in "The spot" so it can't be rehearsals.
Sacto to LA is almost a 6 hour drive without accounting for traffic
And chinos wife is hanging out with the president of RSE group, who's an artist manager...
Let the speculation begin lol
I'm pretty sure they have a rehearsal space in Burbank. But that's also where Warner Bros is, so they are likely taking care of album business as well.
Must be near the end game now if they're flying PR team from UK to LA.
Quote from: RaptureWS on Apr 23, 2024, 12:40 AMAlso, my prediction is March 2025 release. I'd love to be wrong on that though.
Seems like this guy was right!
Talking about releases I think a single comes out around 2 months before the release so I doubt it is March. For example Whitechapel released new singles last month and the album is coming March 25. Another good example is that Machine Head is dropping new single tomorrow and their new album is coming out in April. Hopefully I hope a single it is coming March and release date May? We can only hope while we cross the fingers in our hands and feet.
Ohms released a month before the album dropped
I have no patience now for expectation — wow — fuck this shit...give me the album.

Usually bands share an invitation to their mailing list on social media, prior to announcing something like a tour, special offers, new music, etc.
E.g. the band Deafheaven recently sent out mailing list invites before dropping the first single of their new album roughly a week after.
Updating the mailing list on their website could potentially mean they are preparing to establish a new mailing list for an announcement.

well first of all its just my opinion and i dont want to assume anything too, im just too pumped for this too haha.
but! this can indicate a backend update or preparation for an announcement or backend testing, even if the main site remains unchanged.
bands update mailing lists before big news to collect subscribers and build anticipation.
the mailing list update can be a preparation for an announcement, likely to capture more fan emails before revealing new content.
i just say this because I dont see any other reason why this updated today in 4 years...
btw i wonder if they already filmed the videoclips for the singles. if they are releasing something while in tour it has to be done right🤔
If a single is indeed coming in the next few weeks, I would think so? Especially with the increase in new fans. Hopefully they stick to something similar to the Ohms promotion - WB did a fantastic job with that. Dropping the awesome Ohms video with the album announcement was so cool. Compare that with the Prayers/Triangles video, which came out like two months after the song dropped.
But that mailing list update and the tour being a week away does make it seem like we're almost there. Maybe won't happen this week, but something is definitely happening soon.
Also, if I remember correctly, there was a "Join the mailing list" post on social media right before the Ohms single dropped. If we see one of those soon, it's on!

Interesting...
Although I am cautious about expecting imminent news. I remember the time between rumors about Ohms popping up and the actual album reveal taking foreeeever. Like, there were still multiple months of radio silence from the band until we got the first single.
What I mean is even though there might be rumors about a listening party and @tokyodrifter appearing online recently, they might still only start the album roll out after their tour in the summer. I think it's going to take a long while

Hey @tokyodrifter...describe the new album in one word.
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 19, 2025, 04:19 PM...
Philly and Newark. I'm simply amazed there is a possibility of no new music before or during this tour. I really hope something happens soon.
Atlanta on the 18th. As unlikely as it is for them to crowd test new material on an arena tour, that's the glimmer of hope I'm holding.
Nonetheless, I'm getting flashbacks to Ohms-era where everyone was in COVID lock-down doing detective work on each Instagram post.
They've done it plenty of times in the past. It would make no sense to not play a new song live while on tour, with your new album coming out soon
Was Doomed User the last song to debut live before the single was released?
^ Yup. It's possible they would have debuted Ohms and Genesis live if COVID hadn't happened.
Quote from: B_S_79 on Feb 20, 2025, 01:39 AMWas Doomed User the last song to debut live before the single was released?
I also remember they plays rocket skates live rosemary and poltergeist when it was still called roller derby.
They played Rosemary a lot in 2012 before Koi dropped and it didn't even end up being a single.
Let's keep the fingers crossed for a fan recording of the first show, hopefully we get a new song
Tokyo Drifter: "You snap your fingers, and you think I'll respond!"
It's understandable if tokyo doesn't respond to us. After all, my guy will be headlining a tour next week, so a lot on his plate.
Where's rumors, though?
It would be rad if it was called "Future Heavy"

really?! when I got the notification I really thought "this is it" but no 😔 just tour reminder, not a single hint :'(
Hello I am new here, I've been a fan of Deftones for 2 years now, I can basically play their whole discography on guitar including 8 strings, And im super excited for their 10th album, i feel like its gonna have a very heavy gritty tone on songs and very echoy distant type feel on other songs remanent of entombed, im pretty sure ive heard a thing where stef went all out, im not sure where, but anyways, im excited and cant wait, thank you for having me here (S/T and SNW are my fav)
I'm really hoping there's at least some evolution of their sound. I don't want 'just another Deftones record' again.

That's what crosses and team sleep is for. Lucky you shouldn't have been on self titled; pink cellphone on snw. Keep it to standard stuff they always do. It's what they're good at
No two albums sound remotely the same. Evolution is sort of what they do.
November 2025.
No.
Yes.
Lol, bye. See you in fall, peeps
*Inkblades cameo on page 16*
Considering Chino's been giving guitar duties to Lance Jackman and Shaun Lopez live, I wonder if this translates to more Steph-centric songwriting on the new record.
His live vocals are noticeably better since this change, so it would be interesting if they pursued this in the studio.
We'll see. Steph has said he's a rhythm guitarist instead of a lead, so maybe he focuses on the riffs and Lance will add flourishes? I will say, the little leads Chino did on KNY (Swerve City and Goon Squad bridges, the ending of Gauze) are actually really fucking cool...wouldn't mind some more stuff like that, whether its from Chino or Lance.
Don't bands usually do interviews during tours? Like sometimes they go to local radio stations etc. Maybe if they don't play new music they at least do some interviews that shed light on what's up. Here is to hoping!

Good point.
Makes me then wonder how much contribution Lance, Shaun, or Fred will have on the album proper. I suspect minimal after the Sergio issues, but since it's all been hush-hush anything could be the case.
Maybe a Shaun Lopez "cameo" is most likely since he's a frequent collaborator?

Hey thanks man, means alot, I try my best!!
🤷
hello, i'm new to this page! anyways, i'm very excited for the next album. hoping we get some news soon!
Let's stay on topic guys I keep checking this thread like a madman for every new post and updates.
I really hope it's not actually November. I shouldn't even entertain the thought because it's literally a random comment.....but the doomer in me is dwelling on it. Ugh. It will be here one day.
As for the music itself I am also super curious to see what happens with the lineup change. Steph had that comment saying something like it will be a continuation of KNY, Ohms and some things they have never done before. IDK about anyone else but I wlould love to hear Deftones do a kind of jazzy, groovy, funky type track or two. Something you can almost dance to. Doubt it...but a man can wish :)
Anyone remember those Chino Mixlr tracks that circulated around here and Reddit around 2023? I'm wondering if those tracks were 10th album demos that Chino sneakily debuted on his mixlr.
They also could've been Eros, a side project, etc.
Those snippets do sound like the anthemic nature of Ohms meeting the experimental KNY.
The timeline isn't perfect though, since 2023 is way before vocals or instrumentals were likely tracked or maybe even written for a demo.
No teaser the Friday before an arena tour begins is making me grasp for straws.

I need to hook up my old PC and get those clips on to my current PC. Personally, I always believed it was Deftones for the reasons you stated.
At least by Tuesday night, I will be able to just let go and accept the album is further than I initially thought. On the brightside, my sister is taking my 17 year old daughter to the show in Indy. It will be her first concert ever and Deftones are her favorite band, just like her Dad :) She is beyond stoked.

That's sick man! Hope it's a great time for you all.
If you have any extra seconds worth from those clips, I'd love to hear them! I only have crappy screen recordings from before the links died.

What?!!!!!!
So there are possible demo snippets for the new album just sitting on your PC ?????
Man, pleeeeease share those with us asap if you can, it would be highly appreciated!!!
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 22, 2025, 10:45 AM...
Yessir.
Plus two other clips around 30-50 seconds, based on what I got. My quality isn't great, so maybe people have better copies-- or if someone was there for the live Mixlr and recorded more.
I've never believed that recording was Deftones. Never seen any evidence that Chino went back to Mixlr after he deleted his account in 2022.
last notifications I got for mixlr was back in 2022.
The recording Ves posted sounds was too far in production to be new album stuff if it was posted in 2022.

Alright I'm back for the action. New Deftones and Mars Volta in the same year, what a treat!
Wait wrong username.. I think. Fuck its been so long.
If they don't play any new material on Tuesday at Portland, where do we go from there?
Maybe they would then release a single on June the earliest, before Europe?
At that point, it may just be luck of the draw regarding if they play unreleased music at any show
They have done it in the past. There's no reason to believe they won't now. But who knows, they do shit at their own pace.
Quote from: Moana91 on Feb 22, 2025, 04:28 PMIf they don't play any new material on Tuesday at Portland, where do we go from there?
We go to this thread and continue to complain about it.
I don't think whether or not they play new material on Tuesday indicates anything about the release schedule. They played some SNW material long before that came out; and on the other hand, there's every possibility that this time they'll choose not to play anything live before it's officially released.
I'm past watching a phone recording of any band's new song anyway. I can wait for a recording that doesn't decimate a bunch of frequencies.
We are waiting for tokyo to give us a sign and then we can be sure that the album will be released soon. In the meantime, we are waiting for the tour and recordings, I am even ready to listen in poor quality, just to hear something new purely out of curiosity, what they did this time

Lmao
we will definitely get the album this year, its just a matter of when.
I swear I saw a comment on Reddit in like Nov/Dec stating they had met Fred or Lance and asked about the new album, and was told the band was in the studio laying down a new track or two. At this point I assume they wrote a couple more tracks or replaced some tracks and that is what the hold up is. Chino was in the studio in May finishing vocals. The rest of the music was confirmed done (at the time). I dont know much about the inner workings of the music industry but it seems wild that it would take a year or more to finish an album and get it out the door if the music is done.
I made a reddit post about this, but I am getting a creeping feeling this may be their last album. I know that sounds crazy. Probably is crazy. I just don't understand what is taking so long. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

I remember that. That was Nov, and they claimed Fred said the album was in the mixing stage.
But kitesvera claims the album was only sequenced and in the mixing stage about 3 weeks ago.

Deftones - Future Heavy
September 2025
CONFIRMED
The day before my birthday, that "Future Heavy" post was made. What a great birthday present at the time. I thought "sweet, we are getting close!" If any of this is true, jokes on me. We were still a year and a half away.
Would love to get real confirmation. Have 36 hours of vacation time I have been saving because I was *certain* this would be dropped before July 2025 (that's when my 90 vacation hours get refilled for the year.) Might as well use it for something else. Maybe Elden Ring Nightreign, or Silksong if THAT ever fucking gets announced. The three things I am looking forward to the most-Deftones by a mile, new Loathe and Silksong-are all going to be 5-6 year waits by the time they release. All my favorite things taking so much time .

He said his information was intentionally behind current schedule though i.e. it had been sequenced a while before.
What are some things people want to hear on this album?
If the KNY and Ohms comparisons are true, per Steph, I'm excited to hear the song transitions done by Frank and Stephen. Like how Rosemary went into Goon Squad, or Pompeji into TLID.

Quote from: LG95 on Feb 23, 2025, 07:11 PMAn Abe drum intro.
This! That would be a treat.
Also, I am hoping for better bridges. I feel like Ohms didn't have a lot of good bridge sections. I adore the album, but IMO that is the weakest part. Those moments of buildup and release. Error and Spell had decent ones. Headless swerves right into a bridge/outro section. That's about it from Ohms. The rest of the album has an immediate feel about it. If you've heard the first minute of the song you basically heard the entire track. Nothing wrong with that, just something that kind of stuck out to me.
Good point, I'm hoping this next album gets more experimental for similar reasons.
They've roughly alternated between "heavy" and "artsy" (for lack of better terms) from record to record since Self-Titled; so it feels like time to go the latter direction.
At this point in their careers, I'm going to try to not go in with too much of a preconceived idea of what I want it to sound like. For me, it's more of a numbers game - if its an eleven song album, give me at least seven songs that hit, no matter what they may sound like.

Been a fan since 98. So 7 album release cycles. Not ONCE has the record been even remotely close to what I expected in my mind.
You know what I wish they would do do, but never would? A freaking EP. That would be an awesome way to tide us over while we wait for the album.
While we wait for Tuesday's show and any potential news that can come from that event, why don't you guys name your top 3 tracks from each album?
I'm just hoping it's a good follow on from Ohms and they don't try and be too clever about things
can we keep the reddit bullshit in the bullshit thread please
whatever stephen did wiith sol invvicto, i want it on new deftones album
Man the tour starts tmr, and still nothing, im feeling down abt this album, I bet it's gonna be a banger as always but it's crazy how long it's taking, im sure their done and going through advertisement things but if that's the problem God damn 😭💔

I hope nothing has changed since December. The eternal pessimist in me hates that "during the tour" is paraphrased.
Do bands ever drop new albums in the middle of tours? And I think about the merch....like, will one day if the album drops the merch booth suddenly has a new selection of stuff based on album artwork? I can't travel due to health issues and am not able to go to concerts anymore, so I genuinely have no idea if it's "normal" for albums to be dropped during a tour. Imagine if he said this in December, and the November "rumor" ends up being right. Deftones will have out Deftoned themselves.
On the flipside, this interview was done in December but just released today. Very calculated. I'm gonna bong rip some copium.
Feels not optimal to release an album mid-tour, but if we get the album so be it.
My theory now is maybe they have a general set list in mind, with one or two new songs in the rotation. Maybe they play the new songs starting tomorrow, and just release singles (and the album proper?) mid tour.
Maybe the merch for the new album will start being sold tomorrow too?
Idk how likely that is, though.
Between their break in April - June is my guess for album release.
I agree, what are the odds they actually play new music during some of their shows?
Quote from: gavinkfox on Feb 25, 2025, 02:00 AMI agree, what are the odds they actually play new music during some of their shows?
I'd say pretty high. They've done it lots of times before. They only time they didn't in recent times was Ohms, but they didnt tour til after the album was out.
New Stef signature guitar.

An EP would rule. Or if they have b-sides as has been rumored, do a two-song drop like Crosses did with Initiation/Protection to whet the appetite.
You guys ready to see thr first tour show up on YouTube today or tomorrow?!
Wish I could go, my mom said last year she might take me to the one in Atlanta, but idk if she bought the tickets or keeping it a secret until then, can't get my hopes up!

Wonder if Stef went up to a 10 string guitar this go around
I predict a bright orange 10 string, with a floyd rose, was heavily used on this new record
He barely used the 9 last time. Just one track I think. I expect it'll be mostly/entirely 8 again. He did say he'd been using the same tuning as KNY on this record.

That's great! Hope she has fun and you're absolutely right I'm not trying to be rude or pretentious or whatever I choose to look at this forum. Just hoping for even a little drop of info but it's not looking so good unfortunately :-\
LOLOLOL at the girl singing along to Change in the crowd. Sounding like Roseanne Barr singing the National Anthem and shit.
Melancholy little synth interlude played right before the encore. Possibly something new?
Mostly all singles tonight btw. I guess that's how arena bands do, but it also kind of feels like they are trying to hint something. Like a new single is coming.

You're right I'm sorry I'll let you guys do your thing. Also didn't know I could do that thanks. 🙏
Man that is one safe boring ass set list. Meanwhile the mars Volta just playing all new shit :-\
Genuinely like, NO surprises except maybe Feiticeira? And honestly I think it should be their staple opening track, Beyond that, uber predictable. Oh well. It is an arena tour,,,,
I think it was a hint too.
Yeah that's actually wild to go on an arena tour during this resurgence they've been experiencing and over 4 years since the last album with a new one apparently nearly done and not play anything new lol

maybe they will play something new at a different show? or is the setlist the same the entire tour? sorry i'm new here

Hopefully. They mixed it up on the 2022 tour I believe and also their back catalogue is too deep for them not to. But at the same time, I dunno, their newfound popularity throws a lot of things into question - do they feel they have to play to the new fans, like as an introduction course or something? Truly never know with them.
i watched the whole live stream while playing call of duty with my dad and uncle, i got so excited and i was told to shut up
:'(
Goddamn, what a show. They had a ton of energy and the crowd was giving it right back. Lots of young people there and the place was sold out from what I could see.
Saw them countless time in France. Sometimes they play for two nights in a row. And then they usually completely change their setlist for the second night. It was the case in 2017 for the two shows in Paris with dat Chongi asking on the second night who was there the evening before and telling us that the setlist was completely différent... and it was. It was rumored too for the 3 shows they were supposed to play at le Bataclan...
But when they only play one show, it's their typical setlist. Nothing new and mainstream audience friendly, which was to be expected when they are doing an Arena tour.
It will be more of the side show / smaller type venues where the setlist get's experimental. You have to factor in that they are probably playing for the first time for a lot of people who will be attending the arena gigs in the USA

Yeah their set lists are easy to predict. But goddamn I didn't expect a singles tour. Truly the greatest hits lol
A sold out arena tour with a bunch of young tik tok fans, is not ideal for debuting new songs. Maybe towards the end of the tour but not now.
Any time is the perfect time to introduce fans to new songs... if it wasn't, touring musicians wouldn't exist.

I honestly believe they wont drop anything until the end of this US tour. Long year and booked up next year as well. They are not in any rush and smart money is that this will most likely be the last full length album. In another 4 years they will be like 55-60 years old.

I *really* needed new Deftones sooner than later to get through whatever else is coming my way. I just need to let go and trust that God/Jesus/Allah/Brahma/Buddha/Karma/Universe has a plan and that Deftones in November is when I will need it most ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

You'll get through whatever it is that's going on. You've gotten through everything else so far. And then Deftones will be waiting for you at the end of it. And you'll be invigorated by their energy and can use them to cope as life continues to challenge you as it always does.

Didn't see it that way but you're right they are pretty old now. Definitely going see them on the Europe Tour because who knows how they will be next time.
My guess is a new song during the American tour and then singles on spotify/youtube in september/november. Nowadays a lot of artist put singles on spotify like 4 months before the release date, you can pre save the album a that time and so on.
I think they follow this "modern communication style", a lot of fancy video on Instagram and everything. I dont see them shadow drop the whole thing.
And please make Stephen Carpenter great again, in the past I was focused on Chino's vocals to bring back his voice of ATF or WP but the more I listen to the last albums, the more I find Stephen somewhat lazy, uninspired or not involved at all.
I'm happy with the return of Nick Raskulenicz, I was disappointed in the Terry date sound on Ohms almost like a stepback in sound quality. DE and KNY made Stephen sounds huge again.
It seems like this first leg of the tour is the greatest hits tour... I am now going into the canon of no info until after the April shows and before the June shows, 100%.
i´m going to see them in Portugal, 13th June, I just hope they have something new by then, but tbh im starting to seriously think this will be a middle/end of the year release...

A meme from the ,,older" days. It's the answer to everything on this board
Anybody who follows The Mars Volta know if they played any new music?
Back when Ohms came out, my girlfriend worked at Warner Music, so I got some infos a couple weeks earlier. What the album and singles would be called and when they would release and so on. Wish I still had that luxury, I would feel no shame in letting you all know lol

Truly a new era for the band... Steph is rocking pants and Vans on stage.
It's sad how dead the forum is now, no news so i suppose it is what it is
Final hit of copium for me: Same established set March 5th, then new songs (maybe even NEW new songs) on March 6th.
Since it's the same venue two nights in a row
Any word of when the new album will be released??
Quote from: niteridet_ on Mar 02, 2025, 10:10 PMAny word of when the new album will be released??

Do you guys think the clips that were floating around from Chino's Mixlr not too long ago are from the new album then? There was debate over whether he reactivated his account to play those songs, but it was around the time they had announced it was being mixed

Chino's Mixlr account has been deleted since March 2022. I very much doubt they had anything recorded before he shut his account down. I have email notifications for his account, and the last one I got was March 6 2022.
I wonder why they have 3 straight days of shows when most are two days apart :o
Quote from: gavinkfox on Mar 03, 2025, 02:55 AMI wonder why they have 3 straight days of shows when most are two days apart :o
They'll have gone for two in a row and presumably the first Inglewood show sold well enough to put on an extra one. Usually how it works.

That is not what I was expecting. from two different interviews Chino were just in, he stated that the are finishing up up the album soon as they can do it will be available before we know it, possibly before the US tour ends.
At March 1 2025 hometown show in SAC
had me guessing whether or not they were gonna surprise us with at least one new song..but nope. Back to kickass torrents and pirates bay I guess

Welp, I think tonight's gonna be the last night I keep my eyes peeled on the setlist. Maybe the two day break will have them switch it up aka my final hit of copium before I go cold turkey. It's March now, so if nothing happens this week, this thang definitely ain't coming out anytime soon.

You're all way too invested in whether or not they play a new song. It's coming soon regardless.

Bro i don't care when it releases as long as we get SOME news soon.
Tonight's the night?
Or maybe tomorrow...
I don't think it's happening, man. As I saw pointed out on the sub, they have a very complicated, likely very expensive stage setup, with giant screens playing videos matching the theme of the song they are playing, so they actually can't just throw something new in on a whim...unless it was pre-planned in advance. It seems their whole show was designed around this specific setlist. We gotta let this one go lol.

Exactly this. Not gonna happen soon.
Maybe April/May?? But I don't think so too. The ideal would be they drop a single before festival season... but again... this is deftones. That's why I believe we won't see anything til later this year probably next year.
Setlist will stay the same.
On the other hand what I'm hoping is that with this new release that is to come... setlist will be full of new songs (please let this be the case) ohms was completely ignored for the most part.
Chino said they wanted it out by the tour, obviously they planned on having something out by now, something changed. It's not far fetched to think they planned to include it in their set if they wanted the album out already. I'm still in the camp of an April-June announcement before the European tour.
What if they ran into the same problem they did with gore when it came to the mix and mastering and that's the reason why we haven't heard anything yet...?
I guess we'll see tonight if they switch up the setlist for night 2 in the same venue...
(X) doubt...
We're really getting desperate lol
Personally, the problem is not so much to wait around (it can be fun if done correctly), but that in this cycle there truly has been NO INFORMATION to have fun speculating about. Like... zero.
I mean, someone said the album has 11 tracks? And why is that user even trustworthy?
That's why it's now becoming just boring...
It's the longest gap with no new music. If course we're desperate. We're horny for the defmoans.......
I have already dreamed several times that there was a leak of info and singles and we all discussed it heatedly. And also a message from tokyo: tomorrow.
2 more months...
CONFIRMED:
Deftones - Goon Cave (LP)
October 2025

They just played Rosemary!!!!!
It's a different setlist
Quote from: Moana91 on Mar 07, 2025, 05:32 AMThey just played Rosemary!!!!!
It has been played every 2025 show. Same setlist.

Oh my bad! Sorry
Hope they play a different song.
So far first 8 songs are the same except for Rosemary being played where Tempest was
My guess is they just switch Rosemary and Tempest's spots in the set.
Okay, I was wrong, they just added Around the Fur to the set.
Yeah... looks like it

Headup now...dipping into the ATF bag, I see. This guy's TikTok stream sounds like a potato btw, but I have no life and can't sleep, so in it for the whole thing, I guess.
I don't know if it's the poor quality of the stream but Chino's screams sound fucking insanely on point tonight. Wild that he's 50+ and can still go this hard.
Now they're playing Rosemary. Looks like they skipped Tempest to make room for ATF and Headup.
Quote from: Inkblades on Mar 07, 2025, 06:03 AMbut I have no life and can't sleep, so in it for the whole thing, I guess.
hahaha
Let's hope for a big surprise.........
People in the chat are saying they actually did play Tempest. Bloody Cape is the one they skipped. Now playing HITE.
So it seems Tempest was played as song 4 and it was an error on Setlist fm
It's over
Now there's truly 0% chance of getting anything before this tour leg ends in April...
I wasn't expecting anything new lmao. They must've had something happen and the project is delayed (once again) Don't expect news anytime soon
It sounds like they're pretty proud of the new material from those few interviews over the last year and a half.
Hopefully, it's just a desire from WB to market the album proper. Similar to Ohms, with the album art slowly forming on their website etc.
Deftones' recent rise in popularity, seen in this arena tour and them headlining nearly every bill they're on this year, may just mean they're a priority for the record company to "do it right".
^ Agreed. I doubt anything happened like the mixing problems they had on Gore, especially with Nick R as the producer, so it's more likely they and WB just really, really want to capitalize on all the new fans and try to make this their biggest album yet.
I'm confident it's coming soon.
So has anyone doing the meet and greet just straight up asked when we could expect something?
Haven't seen anyone mention it on Reddit yet.
Going to have to start a 2026 gang chant soon. lol
The quietude has been...odd, especially in the middle of the biggest tour of their career. No radio station interviews, no murmurings from the press, not even any recent "I ran into one of them and they said..." social media posts.
DEFTONES WHY ARE YOU SO CLOSE TO US YET SO FAR AWAY
They also could be keeping quiet for a reason
Though I do think the relative silence is odd, there may be bigger plans in store for the reveal. Something more involved than a mid-tour single debut.
I'd love to be wrong, because I'd love new music from them; but there may be more profit for WB and the band if it's a gradual buildup to a release.
Tokyo online again a few hours ago. He likes the lurk.
This place has gone so quiet
Yeah well no news or anything, not even a word of the album, not even a song name, tracklist, album name, album cover, nothing. So it'll be quiet till then.
Even with Deftones, I would not have believed you if you told me we would still have radio silence 11 months after this interview. Torture, man.....

More shows just announced for August and September in Canada and a couple more states. Surely the album will be out by then, right?
Idk if this means anything but on deftones story they posted the dates and underneath it was a pastel purple snake? Could be but I may be far fetched
I´m sure its about the new album, it will probably be released by then, there is also that little snake logo, like diamond eyes had that bear in the cd cover, so yeah i guess its starting guys... finally, im so so happy for that snake haha, its the beginning of it. A SNAKE, SO COOL, im so excited
The time has come for another animal theme.
The pony, the owl, the flamingos, and now maybe the snake.
Hi guys, new user here. I was gonna make a post about it being the album cover but you beat me to it lol. Either way I'm just a little skeptical as to if this is referencing something else unrelated to the album but it seems legit. Its a pretty HD picture too.

Literally purple is my favorite color and a snake is my favorite animal like best combination EVER
I don't think they'd put the album art on a tour poster first, guys. But hopefully it means we're getting closer.
It would be pretty anti climactic way to reveal the album art.
I think it might be a tire specific image, the colours are album cover related for sure and the snake might be on the cover but it'll look way cooler.
Kind of like how there are different images of the diamond eyes owl.
And now that I've posted that, I'll be proven completely wrong when it does get revealed lol
I don't know. People did think the original 2020 tour poster was going to be the front cover of the then unannounced Ohms. They've starved everyone of direct info to the extent that they could post a guy hovering over a toilet and fans would speculate that the title of the new album is Porcelain Bog.
I think the only hint to an album I've personally seen through a tour date announcement is before Ohms came out, and they changed the font on their logo to what was used for that specific album. Snake would be cool though it seems we're due for another animal mascot
Quote from: sharinglungs on Mar 12, 2025, 05:06 PMI think it might be a tire specific image, the colours are album cover related for sure and the snake might be on the cover but it'll look way cooler.
That's how I'm feeling as well-- I just assume a purple snake MAY be on the cover in different posing and framing than on here.
I'm assuming Frank Maddocks did this also... this flyer's picture may be an alternate shot of the same snake hypothetically.
I also like the snake tongue emblem.
Random thought, but maybe theyre teasing it for part 2 of the tour meaning that that's when they'll play the songs from the album live. Then it would serve as both a teaser for the album pre-release, and a confirmation that it'll be performed live at those venues post-release. Would be kinda cool
After being so secretive about the album I really doubt they'd start teasing artwork on a tour poster. If the November rumor has any truth, my guess is new songs debut at DDLD.
It won't be November. If it is then something's gone seriously wrong in the latter stages of the process. I know the band usually overrun their initial estimates by at least six months, but even if they went back and wrote another two or three songs in the second half of last year, it doesn't take that long to apply the finishing touches.
My guess is the label see a band hitting a new height of popularity and are maximising that with a spring-into-early summer release, drying out all concrete info until then.
Yeah, if the album is done, I just don't see the point in them waiting until the end of the year. I understand promotion is needed, building up buzz and all that stuff, but with this tour being a massive success and them at peak popularity, it makes more sense to me to strike while the iron is hot.
If something did go wrong in the production, then that's a different story.

Just saw on Reddit that Texas has an exclusive shirt with SNAKES as the imagery. Also with a kimdracula lyric.
Pantera had a snake on their album and that was an amazing album, so did the metallica black album.

Remeber that one post "Future heavy" i wonder if that's gotta do with the name
Sorry im posting alot 😭
I'm leaning on the album cover being just a snake, but a Medusa-themed cover would go hard as well. That seems thematically up Chino's alley.
They just posted the same image with the snake AGAIN on their Instagram story and on Twitter (X). That makes it feel even more suspicious
Sm1 on reddit posted the full photo of the snake. HOW DID THEY GET IT

Well not officially the album cover... but it's a significant update that they might start teasing us soon. otherwise why update something so forward facing?
Lol why do I feel like their management is reading this thread and is like "Let's put the snake tongue on the site, that'll make them go crazy for a couple days..."

I'm guessing we at least get a single sometime in late March-April, and then we get an album release right before the North American Pt.2 tour.
I haven't noticed until now, but the Deftones website logo has changed. Looks like a snakes tongue to me.
yep they changed the website logo to the same snake icon of the tour poster with it. GUYS ITS FINALLY HAPPENING OMFG sorry but ive been in this forum everyday since like the rumours started and finally... cant even believe, how will it sound, amazing
The scapegrace spirit in me thinks it would be funny if it's just a troll.
I've looked around a bit to see how they teased stuff for Ohms on this site and guess what, they also used tour posters and the website for it. I hope we get more teasers very soon because the silence has been deafening so far.
quick photoshop job with the snake and band logo

You'd be surprised.
I'm predicting a new song in June/July, album details reveal, then the album out October/November. They have never been in a rush previously, highly doubt it will be the case this time around
There was one month between the Ohms announcement/single and the album.
The album will be released by August, if they are going to do Part 2 of the American Tour and there is already a design of the album in the Tour Poster then this tour will be for the promotion of the new album, first single probably between may and june.
I don't see the point in putting a supposed photo of the new album's design on a tour poster and not having released the album yet for that tour, that's my opinion tho. Maybe its just my anxiety to finally see that album 😭
The new album won't be released while they still adding dates to the current tour, they're selling tickets without new music supporting them, publishing an "after album" tour will provide them of a new "natural" inertia to sell more, IMO.
Let's be honest.. the guys needs to secure their future too... they are aging like everybody else.

The tour poster sure, but changing the websites favicon for a tour that doesn't happen for another 5 months doesn't seem to make sense, and most people probably wouldn't notice. Plus the fall tour is most likely the album promo tour.
Tokyo has been lurking hard today, I've noticed at least 3 visits just today.
Maybe we'll get a mid-tour announcement after all? If not a single
I'm curious to see if there's any changes to the setlist tonight.
They played 5 shows before the first change on night 6, tonight is night 6 of the modified set so we'll see if that's what they're doing or if it's just going to remain the same for the next 16 shows.

You just gotta be patient. Obviously there's something brewing but there's no telling when they're gonna tease us more. Either way I think we wont have to wait too long based off of the info we got recently.
I suppose it's obvious now that they aren't going to tease anything until after the tickets go on sale tomorrow for the second part of the tour.
So Tuesday would be earliest, if not this week then after the April dates for sure
After listening to the interlude before the encore from the live shows, that does sound like a little teaser/build up or something they would do...

If they change minerva, and the thing isn't there anymore it's a new intro to minerva.
But if it is it could be 2 things, album music thing, or just audio for a moment of relaxation

Same here, man... They have been spamming the snake tour image on social media though. I think may-june is the most sensible period for them to release the album. May is coincidentally when they have no live shows, aswell.
I just noticed that same (probably) snake logo that appeared on the tour poster is in this photo of a dude with the band on Reddit!! Its in the middle top, seems that it is in the background wall, i just suspect there was something more above that, but the photo is cropped right there :(

There's also now an animated version of the snake in the tour part 2 poster
I'm thinking two options:
1) Single(s) in mid-late April, then the album in May. Just in time for the June tour dates.
However, those dates are in Europe and also not connected to the snake imagery. Would be odd to potentially live debut new songs outside of their home country.
2) Single(s) released whenever between April and August, album in early-mid August just in time for the "Purple Snake Tour"

I noticed the Deftones logo is pulsating through the vid. I cant make out whats inside the letters though. Kinda looks like the insides of a snake, but when you kinda zoom out it looks like there are teeth going across the "DEFT" part
^ Damn, good eye, man - I see it! You guys are good at catching stuff.
It'd be cool if the album cover was a large snake eating or wrapping around thr deftones logo
So I screen recorded the story and zoomed in onto thr deftones logo and when it flashes is thr same design every time so I think it's a hint

Yeah, I dont wanna repeat what I said in my original post but it just looks like the insides of some animal. After the fact I looked up what a snake's mouth looks on google and it kinda looks similar but not really ...
I just love theorizing
I have been pretty doubtful of this being anything except different tour aesthetics, but you all are making me start to believe it could be album related. I mean.......that snake tongue logo is kinda all over the place. I'm no expert on tour promotions, but I don't think bands usually create random logos for tours. Especially one so simple but iconic looking. It feels like it has a purpose. Another animal themed aesthetic, especially a purple snake, is 100% a thing Deftones would do. It gets me pretty excited because I see colors in my mind when I hear music, especially Deftones. Almost always the song's "colors" match the album artwork.
Even if it turns out to be nothing, it is something for now and get to wonder what a white/light purple Deftones track might sound like :)

There's nothing else to post about anymore tbh, just waiting for more teasers. Only other thing that can be discussed is the snake icon in some of the images people with a VIP pass took with the band. Someone on reddit already pointed it out but its the same one as the favicon of the official website.

Not every fan is a Reddit dickhead.
leddit fans too busy showing them their diamond eyes tattoo or giving them a usb stick with a shitty covers
Someone on rddit today actually asked VIP ticket holders to bring it up. Someone shared that they mentioned the album, and that Abe promptly told him it was coming very soon. He also said Chino stated old fans are going to love this one. Here is his comment::
"I didn't ask but just said I'm so looking forward to the new album. Unprompted Abe said it's coming VERY soon, and Chino said that if I've been a fan for 30 years I'm going to love it. That's all I got but I'm even more excited about it if that's possible!"
Here is the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/deftones/comments/1jf6uk3/someone_with_vip_tickets_on_this_tour_should_ask/
Grain of salt of course, but it gives me hope!
Optimistic from Abe at least.
Would they live debut new songs without stef in Canada? Doesn't make sense, they should just do it now lol
Depends on how soon "very soon" is. If the Roskilde thing is true, then it'll come before the European tour. That leaves 3 months until the album at the latest, and a single could come out literally any day now but probably not in March.

I'm very doubtful they'd play new songs internationally, unless Lance has a sizeable writing contribution to the record such that it feels right for him to play the parts.
After the Sergio situation, that scenario is doubtful.

Just like how Chino said "It's coming" back in April 2024 ;D
Nothing special or important, but I quickly snooped around the official website via inspect element for any info and I found meta keywords for "New Album" and "New Music". This isn't for Ohms as its also a keyword, alongside Black Stallion and others.
I checked it 2-3 weeks ago and it didn't seem like the "New Album" was there.
Really? I mean you can check for yourself if you remember how the list looked back then, if they just added the "new album" on top.
Quote from: TwixPheonix on Mar 22, 2025, 08:50 PMNothing special or important, but I quickly snooped around the official website via inspect element for any info and I found meta keywords for "New Album" and "New Music". This isn't for Ohms as its also a keyword, alongside Black Stallion and others.

Those two keywords have been there for at least a year or more.. i've been checking the websites source code at least once every couple of days since before the coachella interview where they said the album was musically done. It's just SEO stuff for google if people use the search terms..
What if..

Bummer. Back to waiting we go, I guess. The silence is kinda killing me, but I hope they'll start more openly talking to us about the album. Just seems so quiet.
Okay, so my brain told me that this words were not been there. I hope we get something next week
I notice Tokyo hasn't been online for a week.

I'm here if any of you need help.
This is the end everyone take a bow.
We are having a existential crisis
I like the new thread title.
They deadass need to tell us something.
Maybe frank maddocks is working on a music video with thr edits.
Im think at thr end or near the end of this your they are gonna release something they HAVE TO.
If not late 2026 release
They don't need to tell us anything. This is just the way it is. One day you'll wake up to news and that will be that.
Guys, this is a safe space. One day at a time.

Unfortunately, the title is true for me. I come here knowing I am not alone in my feelings of bewilderment, and disappointment about expectations I created. Just because they said it was close to be complete does not mean it *was* complete. They never gave a timeframe directly. Still believe it will be this year, but any notion of what month is gone. Now I am just taking nicklav's advice. One day I wake up and there will be news and I will be happy that day. That day will come.
To take it even further, there will come a day where I will think "Man, I wish I could go back to March 2025 when both my kids still lived at home. My youngest daughter and I were so excited for [insert album name]. Those were the good ole days."

Do you have a link to that interlude? I might look into whether or not its actually an original piece of music because ik that they used another artist's song for them coming out to stage. Pretty sure it was for DDLD 2024.
Anyways, my general thoughts on the whole album stuff is that its best to just forget about it and then whenever the music drops, it drops. Although I dont like the fact that we've been expecting the album since coachella last year we cant let our own expectations let us down.

Seems like they're doing some things slowly behind the scenes.. I get the proper text/checkbox when I check the desktop site. That definitely is new.. so why now do they put it on the front page and ruin the UI with the Logo/Video? Must be something coming soon...
I think April/May will be when new album marketing gets out there. Including singles.
They won't be playing any shows at that time.
Then the international tour begins, wherein Steph won't take part. So unlikely the album will be released before that, since he won't be there to perform those songs' debut.
Album in July/August right before the North American pt. 2 tour (as advertised with the snake).
One other thing to keep an eye on is ASCAP, which will list new songs when they are registered, I think. Nothing has popped up yet, but they potentially could soon. Here's Chino's ASCAP page, and you can find the links for the rest of the 'tones on there as well:

This seems like a plausible outcome. I'm still holding onto a tiny, tiny sliver of hope for something before this tour ends, though...I mean, where's a better place to play new material than Madison Square Garden?
Quote from: Inkblades on Mar 26, 2025, 03:56 PMwhere's a better place to play new material than Madison Square Garden?
Literally nowhere... the most famous venue on the planet.
I mean, that would be pretty amazing even though it is very idealistic. What confuses me though is that small article for the Roskilde concert. Are they wrong about them playing new music then? If they're right, would they actually play something live in this current part of the tour cause of Stef? They did mildly tease the album but idk. I'll still assume we won't hear anything new soon.
November

They did, but that didn't add to the source view lines.. doing a comparison online that checks for differences in code, everything that was added was just for that mailing list checkbox/text on the screen. They've shrunk some of the other code they didn't need as well, so in total it added 146 lines.

If they don't play a new song before the 9th of April, then they'll most likely be debuting a new song live without Stef overseas.
For shits and giggles, this is the old favicon before the snake one..

Now I'm going through that video of the entire sacramento set and I check a comment I made about the new album, wouldn't you know it a guy said that he met Chino before the PDX show and he said the new album is coming soon. Not that its anything special but still worth a little post.

Before, no doubt. I think we hit 1000 posts before we even hear a new song. They are dragging this out big time and I bet they will have a big, long lead up to the first single. That will bring everyone out plus a bunch of newer fans and people from r/deftones. Only way we don't hit 1000 posts before we hear a new song is if they surprise us and play one live with no build up.
Love the new thread name.

This is what I think too, after the first leg of the tour ends we'll get info on the new album, but it won't drop til later summer when they're playing with Stef again. I personally can't see them playing new songs for the first time without Stef, but who knows.
^^^ I agree. I cannot imagine Stef would be too happy if they premiered a song that he helped write without him there to play it. It may be a long summer boys. On the bright side if it actually does drop this winter, it'll be some fresh sexy time music for people hunkering down in the winter lmao
Why do people think this will be their last album?
What about Eros?

Do you guys think there could be features on this record? Last one I recall is Jerry Cantrell on Phantom Bride, but it was a more typical thing for them in the early days.

Zach Hill from Death Grips also did the finger snapping on Spell of Mathematics for Ohms, but thats a much less noticeable feature. I'd expect something similar to that for this album but I'd love a guest vocalist for a song, like in Mein or Passenger
I wouldn't necessarily expect it. They're good at not contriving a feature for the sake of it. They mainly seem to happen if a space opens up in a song where a certain person might fit, as with the Jerry Cantrell and Maynard appearances, or it's a subtle spontaneous collaboration when someone happens to be around the studio, like the Zach Hill one or Scott Weiland discreetly appearing on RX Queen.
Although I strongly suspect that the Serj and Annie Hardy features on SNW only happened because Chino was bored of the songs.
Didn't they also have Chelsea Wolfe on Urania too?

I'm just a doomer though so don't take me too seriously lol.
Do we all agree that the first single will come out between July 5 (first day post European tour without Steph) and August 22 the latest (first show of the SNAKE tour) ?
I don't think a label cares whether music is released before Stef has a chance to play it live. I'm still expecting it to come sooner than July.
I think we should not forget that on the Roskilde festival page it is stated that the band will already have new music. Let's pretend that it is a typo, but I think the label would have noticed it by now and it would be gone, but check the festival site.

I think/hope it'll come out between the end of this tour and the Europe dates.. April 9-June 13th
I also have a new theory/speculation. The time between the snake favicon and the website adding the text and checkbox was about 2 weeks.
2 weeks from the website change is April 9. Last day of the tour. Possible date for another change/update/tease

I wonder if it's a certain touring bands album we might know... I know it could be a long shot but timing is getting closer to the end of the first leg of the tour.. etc..
For those that don't know, she's their UK Publicist, yes this could be about another bands album, but my copium won't let me believe that.
Actually, I don't think it's that much of a long shot. If it is Deftones, we'll know very soon. Someone will inevitably pop up on social media saying they've heard it, maybe even followed by early reviews.
Conversely if any y'all have the time and the patience, here's all the artists she reps. Maybe we scan through the list and see who has a new album coming and who doesn't to narrow it down: https://publiccitypr.com/public-city-artists
Think we can safely cross Crosses and Team Sleep (lol) off the list. Glassjaw (double lol) and Dillinger too. Poppy, Taking Back Sunday, Better Lovers, Teenage Wrist, Will Haven, The Used - all have put out albums in the last two years. Likely none of these bands.
Head Automatica and Vowws both have new singles out - could possibly be them.
I'm going through it, so far im down to 55-60 ish left to go through, not many coming out with albums in 2025, or have recently released albums in 2023-24
After I get off work I exercise and meditate. I will be online around 6:30 p.m. central. I can help then if needed.
This is what i've guessed could be the top ones with possible albums coming out this year maybe:
As December Falls
Charming Liars
Deftones
Head Automatica
Juniper Youth
Nova Twins
Quicksand
Torus
Vower
VOWWS
The World Is A Beautiful Place...
Every other artist either released an album/ep in 2024 or they haven't made an album in so long that they're essentially dead in the water.
Not to throw too much cold water on this because I still think it's possible but it does dawn on me that she could have just been talking in general because somebody made her that drawing and she hasn't actually sent an album out recently. Hopefully we'll know soon...

I wonder if something went really wrong, like it had to be remixed etc (Gore). It's definitely taking longer than even I expected, I was a pessimist about it's release date from the beginning.
https://imgur.com/a/RHJOM7a
It's Deftones, expect delays and mystery - enjoy the ride ;D
I don't think anything went wrong. They're older and are juggling a resurgence in popularity amidst health and family.
(I'm not trying to imply specific concerns in either area, for any members of Deftones. Just speaking on life being unique for older touring musicians with families)
This major tour is good to capitalize off the moment, and maybe the label is choosing to therefore delay the album to release after this tour finishes.
At this point in their careers, I think they don't care anymore about how soon to release an album. And WB likely have their own plans, also.
DEFTONES JS POSTED A NEW SONG ON YOUTUBE

Nope. Not falling for that today. lol
Reflecting on their TikTok popularity ahead of this album...it is insane how popular their cover of Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want is. I know it's easy to be snobbish as an older fan but seriously — it has more listens on Spotify now than Digital Bath! And for what might be their least good cover. They have like twelve that are better.
anything tiktok related is non-canon

As a younger fan, I don't get it at all either. Id rather listen to literally any randomly selected song from one of their studio albums than that song. Not to say its a bad cover its just... A cover.

I've seen teenagers wearing Nirvana shirts and I'll ask them if they listen to the band, one response was "No but my dad really likes them".
I don't think gen z or y or whatever it is now actually acknowledges "posing", or maybe they do I have no idea. It just occurs to me that they are more about current trends and gravitate more toward what they deem fashionable at the moment than the older generations. Not a judgement, just an observation based on how different information and fashion is spread nowadays. I've been debating whether I like Deftones' newfound popularity in the younger crowds, and I've decided I'm fine with it as long as it means they get to keep doing what they do.
I'm old, I don't have Tiktok. I find out about new music from this forum lmao. I can't believe Head Automatica has new music, what has it been? 20 years?
Im 14 turning 15 this year but
2023 in march [i was 12] I found out abt Deftones and didn't like them, I think first song i heard was feticere. But I started to listen to other band like Slipknot and linkin park, then later into 2023 [i was 13] Deftones rises in popularity and I re listen to them, and I fall in love with them. And no im not stuck on ATF and WP. I've listened to every single Deftones album except black stallion bc ts is ass. I'm a huge fan of Deftones and I play like all their songs on guitar. Unfortunately I don't own any merch of posters abt them. But yet again I found Deftones abt tiktok, but im not like those basic teens trying to be cool, only listing yo change, cherry waves, mos, and 7words. Like they need to grow up musically 😭
I have talked to teenagers with Deftones shirts who ACTUALLY listen to them and legit connect with the music. Which is fucking cool af to say about a band.
I never did come across anyone that I can recall when I was younger who wore a band shirt they didn't actually listen to, because they would be called a poser, and many people I knew back in the day listened to bands much older like Led Zeppelin and the Doors.

I taught both my kids very early on that it wasan unwritten rule that you do *not* wear a band t-shirt unless you can hold a conversation about said band. You don't have to know every track, but you need to know more than a few songs. My girls are 21 and 17. Oldest favorite band is The Cure. My youngest favorite band is.....Deftones. Just like her Dad :) Literally, no words can describe how cool it is that my child is as excited as me for this new Deftones album. My oldest knows more about bands like The Cure, Depeche Mode, etc than 90% of people that pretend to like those bands to be "cool". How amazing....
A lot I wish I could have done different. But I was always here for them and I taught them well in terms of music. One of the few things I am proud of!

it's been the hipster thing for the past 15 years now which ironically makes it normal again
I wonder if Chino used that vocal effect rig he's been doing live, on the new album?
Hopefully this record is more experimental than Ohms. The KNY comparisons via Stephen make me hopeful for that.
I like it when Deftones get weird.
I just noticed they played Cherry Waves the other night.
Here's hoping to some other wrinkles in the setlist in Philly tomorrow.
I'm hoping they change it up for MSG tonight, what are the chances they ever play there again ya know?
Officially less than a week away from the end of this part of the tour.

Agreed. Can't believe they are headlining arenas.
Tomorrow is my 51st Deftones show.
I told myself DDLD '22 was my last show. The live shows for me left a lot to be desired, then I heard their live set from Lollapaloza last year and they sounded great.
Thought I'd give them another shot when they announced this tour because I was certain they would have a new album and play new material.
Well, here we are. lol.
Final chance for new material this tour may be tonight at MSG.
I'm 99% sure that's not happening though
This run of shows seems to have gone really well. Dead pleased for them.
I just need new music. I can't say I get excited for much across the arts these days, but Deftones are and always will be my band, and everything around a new album is always one of the highlights of my year. This one now feels like it's been coming for ages. I don't care whether they play anything new live, even when I see them in June. I just want the album announced.
Quote from: B_S_79 on Apr 03, 2025, 04:02 PMQuote from: sharinglungs on Apr 03, 2025, 03:59 PMI'm hoping they change it up for MSG tonight, what are the chances they ever play there again ya know?
Agreed. Can't believe they are headlining arenas.
Tomorrow is my 51st Deftones show.
I told myself DDLD '22 was my last show. The live shows for me left a lot to be desired, then I heard their live set from Lollapaloza last year and they sounded great.
Thought I'd give them another shot when they announced this tour because I was certain they would have a new album and play new material.
Well, here we are. lol.
I'm a staunch setlist complainer/arena hater. But after watching some live shows on YouTube from this tour I'm tempted to catch them on leg 2. The band and especially Chino look like they're having a blast on stage.
I hope they at least tease something tonight during the MSG show. New music would be absolutely great seeing as how good every concert has been performance-wise and a new song would speed up the hype train really well. Even if we don't though, which is purely speculation, I won't mind because they sound amazing. I'm super impressed with how consistently good they have been this tour.
Also, this is a pretty big reach but I noticed that the Deftones logo for the MSG show tour poster is different (its on their latest instagram story). Kind of looks like the same white snake inside the letters but im not sure. The poster also has a MSG logo added underneath.
I think that's just the lines from the wall/bricks.
Edit: just saw the other one, I think it's that the lighting in the photo but it does look like a cool texture
I'll be at the show tonight. Will report back.

Charlotte was great, enjoy it Brother!
Live, liiiiiiiiiiive from the garden.
No new stuff (pretty much a "duh" at this point lol) at the garden, but 'twas a good show. Really nice seeing them get the classic "phone flashlights as the 2025 equivalent of lighters" stadium treatment right before the encore.
Back to hibernation we go... Although it'll be super weird if all the snake teasers were for naught and dont get followed up in the next few months at the latest
Glad you enjoyed the show, btw

Zero hopes.
So we all hopeless rn?😭
Just nothing else to go on.

Literally, we got the snakes and that was the last thing, including the favicon, but maybe on the last day they'll do something who knows, we still got some concerts left have a sliver of hope
I don't think they'll do anything until after the April 9th show. But the last 2 "updates" to the deftones.com website were 2 weeks apart.. and 2 weeks after the newest "update" is April 9th, if they don't do any updates to the website then, I think it'll be a waiting game until the august tour.

Yeah, I agree. Safest bet rn though is to just assume the worst which is just more dead silence. There's really no telling at this point, even with the tidbits of the information we have
Looks like the wait will be much longer than we hoped.
It's not directly from the band so take it with a grain of salt. I can not go in to details, but I think the guy saying November was being generous. And that's just for a single. The album itself is likely farther off than that.
I really can't say anymore. I have no reason to lie, and my source has no reason to lie. They don't even know about this board either. I would love to explain, but I can't. I hope as much as anyone the November guy + my source are wrong. What my source told me made my stomach drop out of sadness. Hunker down everyone. Gonna be a while.
If that's true, why? I can't even think of a reason.

I am swerve City on our discord. I will hit you up there and explain to you. But only you. I think people would trust you more than they trust me. And again this is all grain of salt. I just know my person has no reason to lie and I definitely have no reason to lie myself.

Trust me on this, Chino 100% knows about SL. This Link Is Dead and Big Youth by Crosses are most definitely responses to internet comments about his music. There was also an old interview back in the 2000's where he said he got angry because he'd look at message boards like this one and it would all be comments saying what direction the band should go in. That's probably where the whole "I have no patience now for expectations..." bit on TLID comes from.
I just meant my source doesn't really know about this board. I'm certain the band knows about it LOL
Ah gotcha lol.
BTW, there's a Discord? Link?

Well, then it's just about dates and marketing
Probably it's about the fact that they are already so popular right now, that why not milk this arena touring cycle as much as possible... and then, bang! New album, more gains

Reflecting on what I was told, *if* true, this is basically the TLDR of what is happening.
Still holding out hope they decide to strike while the iron is hot so to speak.
I'm still hoping that sometime after April 9 and before the June overseas shows we get something.

Personally, this doesn't bother me at all.
Good for them for being in such a high point of their careers!
Why wouldn't we like that?
The album is coming regardless, it would be great if they could even improve it during this time, maybe even write a few more songs.
As fans we should want a great album, even if that means more waiting.
What would be REALLY weird, would be that the album is 100% finished, like literally sitting on a hard drive, and they not touching it for a whole year...

Fair enough. Me Personally, i'm salty because it's been almost 5 years since I've heard the boys. If the album is ready I want them to release it asap; I don't want them to become sell outs.
I wouldn't think they'd sit on it for another year. They were going to sit on Ohms cause of Covid and they weren't able to tour on it and ultimately decided to put it out. Sitting on it for another year would leave to much potential of it leaking and that would defeat the purpose of being so hush hush about it.
So the Snake Tour ends on October 3...
Holy fuck, it might be true that we would be getting a first single on November the earliest... aiming for Día de los Deftones
None of this would surprise me, not getting anything at all until November sounds on par with Deftones.

Yep! I had no idea it was Bruno Mars when I first heard them. I love some Motown, disco and funk. Silksonic came through one day on Spotify and I immediately hearted it and showed it to my wife. "Honey, check out this new band called Silksonic. They do this Motown thing with a sprinkle of comedy and it's so good!"
I press play on the track "Leave The Door Open".
She just starts laughing and said something to the effect of 'You're probably the last person with the internet to hear that song. That is Bruno Mars. Look at how many listens it has."
So yeah, that was funny. Almost exact same thing happened when I thought I "discovered" Dua Lipa's album Future Nostagia (the only pure pop album I have enjoyed in like a decade). Sorry I got way off topic.
Ok back on topic. Deftones, purple snake, rumors and where is TokyoDrifter?

Tokyo really stopped being online as soon as the site became super active lol. Maybe if he stuck around a little longer he coulda said something at least.
@tokyodrifter Give us a sign!! :'(
Maybe he's working hard on marketing to promote the album and will leave us a signal as soon as he's done? :)
Im so desperate for thr new album I've literally been dreaming about it
Chino came to me in a dream and said the album will be out by the time Roskilde comes around
Roskilde also did say that Deftones would present new music by then.
If not, must be a typo
Quote from: gavinkfox on Apr 07, 2025, 06:40 PMRoskilde also did say that Deftones would present new music by then.

I had a dream they where in studio playing beer pong, and they were all having fun listening to thr new album. They where under like purple lights purplish blue. Stef was rocking out on guitar playing the new songs
Yeah that is surely new. Reminds me a ton of the Pompeji outro that they also used for live shows. Im confident its from the new album
I'm going to say if we don't get a tease or single off the new album between April 9 and the end of may, it's going to be a longggg 7 months of waiting.
Quote from: Vesanic on Apr 08, 2025, 09:55 PM...
It sounds like some feedback from Stefs guitar with some ambient noises from Frank. Sounds like a build up
I don't know why, but that idea that this might be their last album starts to make some sense in my soul...
I feel that with Sergio leaving and all the Stef shit including him not playing overseas anymore... maybe things don't feel the same anymore for the guys...
And now with this idea of trying to capitalize as much as possible with these tours...
Maybe they end with a bang with the last album and leave it at that.
I don't know...

I've been saying it for a long time. Just a feeling, but exactly what you said is what has been in my mind for at least 6 months.
But.....maybe do this album, and then end with a "moancore" album to appease the Tiktokers and cash out a nice final paycheck. That would be optimal!
I go back and forth with that. Maybe they are bored by it, but at the same time, the $$$ they made on this tour might be too good to just walk away from. Or maybe they stop putting albums out after this one and just become a permanent arena band. They realistically could just do that for the rest of their careers. Most of the fans probably don't want to hear new stuff at shows anyway, they want Change and Sextape.
I also still think releasing Eros will be their swan song.

Very possible.
Touring and the old songs are where the money has been since the resurgence obviously.. The streams for the last two albums pale to their older work. I wonder if there is pressure from the label to make a more "streamable" album? The boys would probably be really fucking turned off by any kind of outside influence on what their music should sound like. But.....I'd bet money whenever the first single drops, it will be the prettiest, dreamiest song on the album.
I pray we get Eros, or even whatever exists of it.. I genuinely do not care if some songs are fully done, while others have like, a verse completely vocally and then just instrumental the rest of the way. *That* would never happen. But a man can wish. I know Terry mentioned he wanted to finish it just in case Chino decided to do vocals. But I just don't know if Chino would be willing to go back to that period of time and try to force that music to resonate with him. Then again, I don't know Chino or any of these people so I do not know what they think lol.

I wouldn't mind. The closer we get to the last Deftones album, the closer we get to potentially getting Eros.
Are you guys ready for tomorrow? Last day!
So about eros, yk how they said it was psychedelic and very jammy and like wild ig?, well franks synth sound really psychedelic like something you hear in a movie when a guy it's getting high asf and seeing rainbow cats. LOL unlikely it's eros but hey why not speculate and have fun doing so!?

Terry did say in a podcast that he was going back to finishing Eros for when they want to go back to it. So it's sitting on his computer and probably there band each have their own copies.
Not to be cringy, but I'll probably shed a few tears when they put Eros out.
Yeah, that's going to be an emotional listen.
Imagine if they debuted the new album live for the last show tonight and then dropped it tomorrow. That would certainly be a mic drop moment.
All im hoping for is just a droplet of information. At this point a new song seems like its gonna be really far off with the rumors that have been circulating around lately.
As for my thoughts about if this album will be their last, I dont think it would be because of their age or something like that. They outperform on stage, let alone in a studio. The only thing that could make this their last album is just outside factors, but if they wanted to keep going, they absolutely could. When we get there though, Eros and a second B-sides record are warranted for. I want those unreleased songs available as studio recordings, not some muffled live recordings like for example Melanie. In conclusion, my biggest hope rn is for everything to go as smooth as it can for the band, all things considered.

That'd be insane bro!
Turnstile dropped a new single along with a video and their album comes out in June and only started to teasing it with a billboard last week. Things could happen fast
Maybe the guy that said November was not bullshitting. By the second leg of touring they most certainly will have debut or released a single for this yet to be titled effort. I would like to know if Lance makes an appearance on the album. Screaming vocals, guitar playing, claps, snapping his fingers.
Will Fred play on the new record? is he just a hired hand touring bassist? Will this record be their "And Justice For All" No bass lol

Pretty sure they've all but confirmed Lance plays on the album in some capacity.

Of course Fred is playing on the new album. I don't understand what people don't understand. Fred is their new "permanent" bassist.

At this last concert of the tour, I at least want Chino to say something like, "We got a new record coming out, so stay tuned in the next couple months" or something like that.
Gonna throw my guess out. Either October 31st or November 7th will be the release date. Why? Day of the dead is Saturday November 1st - Sunday November 2nd.
Dia de Los Deftones on November 1st. Album release day before or week after.
Hope I'm wrong because I'm impatient like everyone else. But this makes sense. Throw out a single or two before leg 2 of the tour.
Their number of songs on ASCAP has changed from 113 to 112 a while back, and in the last day or so it's gone from 112 to 110... I wonder if they're just removing duplicate songs?

we are fucked
The window between them teasing the new album and its release is consistently about 3-4 months. All the snake stuff obviously seems to be tied to the new album, and there is the Roskilde article, but it seems to me as though something happened in the meantime that changed their plans completely. Everything is super up in the air rn which is why I'd kill for just an update on how the album is going. Doesn't need to be anything grandiose.
I find it kind of wild that they did a massive arena tour, and there are no interviews from journalist or radio stations in those big cities.

Maybe there are, but they just aren't being released yet. Like that article written in December but published like a month ago
^The above article I'm referring to is the one where Chino expressed wanting to release the album mid-tour
I think someone already said this previously in the thread, but I agree; At least we got Crosses material back at the end of 2023. Patience is key now I guess.
Just curious, would you guys prefer a new Deftones or Team Sleep (it'll never happen) album?

We only ever got 1 Team Sleep album, and Team Sleep basically doesn't exist any more.

Team Sleep just because it would be a lot rarer. We have so much Deftones music and not a lot of Team Sleep.
Deftones, although if Team Sleep came back and wrote a record within the lo-fi realm they initially intended to inhabit, that would be pretty damn cool.
Team Sleep. I was really looking forward to that 2nd album.

honestly, it could be, but it'll be very late, because they are probably back in Oregon figuring stuff out maybe practicing the new material and getting ready to release some stuff in a month or few. Ik im let down aswell but he gotta have some hope, my last post was a joke but still have hope

Nice! So safe to assume they have a release date in mind? Do you know if the release will be during or after the tour?
I can say the Mars Volta's new album releases April 11th.
I went to him and he was correct about this so?
^ Plans can change at the drop of a hat though. His intel could have been right at the time and then something changed. Let's just hope we're all being really melodramatic and an announcement will still happen in the next month or two.
I was thinking if Chino was still on Mixlr we would have heard half the album by now lol. It's better this way though, I'd rather hear the whole album in one shot.
R.I.P. Dai.
If someone hadn't screenshotted his comment about Sergio, which he'd explicitly asked not to be shared, he might still be on Mixlr.
I think he did one more session then deleted it.
^ Somebody always has to ruin it for everyone else.
I agree with that, especially because all the band members said that they're excited about the album. That's pretty telling to me that they don't want the experience to be spoiled.
Oh okay I understand now
Since stef said it sounds like koi and ohms im excited too, I hope these more songs like graphic nature, and error

April is probably done for man. I wouldn't count on anything until summer.
And that might be wishful thinking, even.
I think something definitely happened at the beginning of this year that changed their plans of release...
From a business standpoint, it could be due to the instability of the American market right now.
My guess would be they will do some publicity over the summer, release a single around the start of their tour and the album will be out November.
We need something, im like dying over here, dreaming abt this new album 💔
We're gonna start holding group therapy sessions over this lol
I scrubbed though the BReal podcast Steph was on yesterday and he made no mention of the album nor did anyone from the chat ask about it. They even do shoutouts and the end and the woman they had on promoted her book and Steph had the opportunity to do his own promotions and nothing 🤦🏽�♂️
This place is death
2026 lads
2026 for sure
Oh lord
Any Hollow Knight fans in here too, waiting for Silksong? The two things I have been looking forward to for years have both had bizzare, extended silence. At least Silksong got confirmed to be sometime this year. As someone else mentioned, I am convinced something else happened behind the scenes near the end of the year that changed all the initial plans.
Deftones usually release their albums in fall & summer/spring months, with no winter releases that I know.
Adrenaline-Oct
ATF-Oct
WP-June
S/T-May
SNW-Oct
DE-May
KNY-Nov
Gore-Apr
Ohms-Sept
With spring coming to a close soon and no official news or information yet, I'd say it's safe to assume we can expect summer or fall release. Who knows, maybe they will have a first and release it in winter, though that seems unlikely.
So new deftones beer is up on thr website, and it's usually named after thr songs,
Well this one is called tone zero? Idk I'm clueless amd theorizing
Zero means non-alcoholic beer.

Well I guess this album isn't coming any time soon then. Shame. I could really do with new Deftones in my life right now
I think it's coming after leg two of the tour, and I honestly can't blame them as much as I want new music. It makes sense to just ride out this arena tour that's already sold out and successful without new music, and then release it late fall/winter with DDLD getting a new song or two
We're getting a Chino remix of a song from The Cure's recent album before we're hearing anything off this.

EVEN YOU TOKYODRIFTER PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
They ought to toss us a bone at this point. Not even a bone. Like, a crumb. Anything.
If they're really trying to use the tour success to their advantage, they shouldn't wait too long to release the album. Nowadays stuff gets popular and then dies off super quick.
Guys a bought the limited edition red S/T album and a dimebag darrel necklace!!!
IM SO HAPPY!
I was saving up for a whammy digitech, I still am but I really wanted some stuff!
It's coming saturday!
Weird, they removed some of the snake tour posters off instagram. One's still up on their "shows" story and on twitter though.
I know they have been busy touring, but maybe this wait will mean the next album (if there is one) will have a quick turnaround ala DE-KNY. Highly unlikely, but wishful thinking is all I've got. I still check this thread 3-4 times a day just out of habit and will continue to do so until well after the album is out lol.
Can you guys give the boys a little time to decompress after just getting off the road from touring. Remember they dont owe us anything. Chino has said it before. The more you give the fans the more they want.
Lets not comment of this thread at all until! They say something, let's see how long it'll take
That was quick

Sorry man :( this is where I come to just speculate about the music and talk about what I wish for in terms of the music itself. But if I had one wish for this band, it would be that they, as people, are living their best, happiest, healthiest lives. And if that means no new music in 2025 or 2026 or 2027 then I'm okay with that. I would never ever want them to jeopardize any of that to give the fans anything.
Someone asked Stef on the Greenthumb podcast when the album was coming out, he says its coming out in 2025 for sure, he doesn't know the release date, but he's thinking Late summer maybe.
Excellent.
Great to hear!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBcEPVV8d2M
1:22:43 for the timestamp of Steph talking about new album!
If it's late summer... we could get a single in May/June, second one July, album in August!
He was asked the same question on that podcast before, and he said late 2024/early 2025.
He doesn't know.
But it wasn't done then.
Ah the great Sharing Lungs Act of 2008. Forgot about that legislation.
He does hedge his bets on the late summer prediction. Stef usually plays a straight bat to questions so I think he'd say if he knew.
'Likely maybe late summer I'm guessing' means there's not exactly a single coming next week. But if that's the impression he has then I think sharinglungs' guess of June for single, August/September for album looks a decent shout.
I hope so lol it's the only album I've been really waiting for since early last year. Everything else that's come out since is just a bonus to kill time at this point
Whatever any of the guys say is a likely release date, I always tack on a few months.
At least its coming this year. I would've lost it if it was going to be pushed to 2026.
Stephen saying "I don't have an exact date, but maybe late summer?" does make me wonder about album release dates in general. You think the artists would have some say, but how much does the record label really control?
Case probably is that its mostly the label controlling stuff after the album is completed musically. Although him saying late summer completely adds up with the teasers thus far, which are also probably instructed by their label.
Next time stef is on the greenthumb podcast, most likely Tuesday, I'm going to try and ask him a question about the snake tongue logo from the meet and greet photos and the website icon/tour poster.

He'll say, I don't know anything about this, maybe it's a reference, maybe not, I don't know anything at all lol
But it would be interesting to know what he would say
Doesn't hurt to ask, maybe the more we ask the more he'll spill lol
Think there's any chance the delay is from figuring out legal stuff with Fred in the wake of Sergio's departure? Or even if there's anything they used that Sergio would have any contribution to before that?
Honestly when this album releases it's just gonna be another album now, all my hype is pretty much gone, because how empty the news for it has been, yay new music cool.

Nope
When the album does come out, we're all going to look back at this thread and laugh.
Does anyone else also dislike Steph's guitar work from Diamond Eyes onwards?
He became like such a generic metal player.
I only look forward to what Chino, Abe and Frank do tbh...

It's different..but I wouldn't say I dislike it. There's some interesting riffs peppered here and there from DE and on, but I feel like the band as a whole was more creative with chord changes and "strange" hooks/song composition when Chi was still around. I'm sure I'm not the only one who divides the discography into 2 eras.
^ Everything you said is on point. He still busts out cool stuff from time to time, but I do feel like his riffs had more complexity in the Chi era. Often a more unique tone, too. And I definitely separate those two eras as well. Most fans likely do.
I could be wrong here, but I think Stephen, Abe, Frank and Fred Sablan wrote some of this new album while Chino was busy with Crosses, so that will hopefully tell Stephen "Oh, I'm not just adding a little part to one of Chino's songs" and allow him to get a little more adventurous.

I submitted my superchat, asked about Snake tongue logo/website icon if it's new album related, if they picked a name for the new album and if we'll hear anything soon.
Annnnd
Stef said.. Hasn't seen the snake tongue logo, doesn't know if the album title has been picked, we'll hear it this year, thinks it's still being mixed because he hasn't heard the final mix.
Quote from: Vesanic on Apr 29, 2025, 10:20 PM...
Sort of. He said they had a date picked, but they changed the date, but haven't picked one yet. He has said this year for sure.
Are you able to give us any other info you might know, knowing that this is "public" info now? lol
Not fully mixed yet?
September at earliest then.
To be fair, Stef seems like he's been out of the loop about whats happening with the album for a while. At least that's what my copium wants me to believe.

That is not true. You will be hype AF. Right now it's just the grief and disappointment stage because it has been "delayed". I use that term loosely as technically nothing was ever officially announced or delayed.
When a single drops your hype-meter will go from 0-100 :)

LOL B-Real seemed to be getting peeved with all the Deftones questions. Stephen was super cool about it, though.
And everyone applaud sharinglungs. Good looking out.

Deftones Addiction is a problem we all share.
Rehab covered by insurance?
1k posts for a whole lot of nothing is crazy. Threads been going on since July 2023 aswell. And we're still probably not gonna get something worth 50 pages of posting for a good couple of months.

And again, his last words now «2 more hours». Maybe it means something, but he could wrote this on this thread instead
But anyway, i think we won't get any news for month at least, so we have to wait.
Or Tokyo will give us another sign soon and then we can expect something in May.

Considering how checked out he seems to be with any information on the new album, I don't think he gives a fuck If they play New songs live without him.
Its evident that people are interested in the album and waiting. Every one of their social media posts always has comments about it with lot of likes. We're also here and people on the reddit also ask around for it periodically, people on tour too, among other examples.
I think its in their interest to just... Fucking say something. Even if we gotta wait more than we thought, just give us something that'll excite us beyond it just being a new deftones album. If it's their label doing this then they're being sloppy as shit.
I think it's already been said, but with the success of this arena tour I'm not sure the label would agree with the notion they are being sloppy. The band likely gained a good number of new listeners without the label having to spend a dollar promoting new music.
I think it's easy to forget we don't represent the average fan.
This was mentioned on Discord and I agree. Stef had a wry look on his face when asked about the snake thing. He knows and he has seen it, and is probably just under strict label orders to not say a damn word about the album other than "this year". Thank you for doing the Superchat to try to get us info. Much appreciated!
Have you heard the new track from Loathe yet? He just released

HOLY FUCKING HELL, THIS IS BLESSING MY EARS, I LOVE IT, THANK YOU LOATHE THAT RIFF WAS FUCKING AWESOME, AND THE CLEAN PART oh my god.
The band seem confident it's a good record, surely the wait will be worth it
2 more hours
Loathe will help hold me over. One of the few new Deftones-influenced bands I actually like.
I don't like that Loathe song at all. Why do none of these Deftones-inspired bands actually have the confidence to write an actual song? They're all throwing shit at a wall...here's a synth crescendo, here's a stank riff, here's an industrial bit, here's a melancholy clean vocal section, here's a jazz bit, here's a Blade Runner synth bit.
Sleep Token are the worst for it because their genre smashing is so turgid and mawkish and dreary and contrived, but some of the others aren't much better.
Two Way Mirror stood out because it was an actual song with an actual hook.
They sound pretty good.
But I just don't get into the Deftones inspired stuff. I'm happy for people who enjoy what they like though.
Nothing scratches the itch for me unless it's Deftones. It's really annoying for me because I WANT to have something to fill the void.

I agree. Most of their stuff just sounds like generic noise to me. Their most Deftones sounding songs are genuinely GREAT though. ie:Two Way Mirror, Sad Cartoon and Is It Really You. Just wish they were more consistent.
Honestly I don't hear deftones at all in there music and always found that a stupid take, I love them, I like the screams I love everything about them, even the chill songs but I just don't hear thr deftones people are talking about, like all this "deftones sounding" music is just shoegaze that sounds nothing like thr "inspiration" surr there's entombed and like ending of error but that's not even really shoegaze. Sorry if this is like random it makes sense to me
A lot of them actually don't sound like Deftones (people act like Thornhill are the second coming of Deftones lmao, don't get that at all) but tell me the :57 second mark isn't a dead ringer for Chino:
It's an imitation for sure, but a pretty damn impressive one IMO.
Ayyy White Hot, one of my favourite songs from them. I agree with dawn of war on most accounts, like I hear a loose connection to deftones but they have their own sound.
Hot take though, I don't really love it when they do songs that are full on softer, except two-way mirror. I like their heavier side.
Two Way Mirror is a Minerva tribute.
Doesn't sound like that was what delayed it, but who knows...
I hope he takes care of himself, reading that sorta scared me, probably just exhausted after all the recording/touring.
If Steph is calling it "amazing" that makes me feel very optimistic about the new album.

"White Hot" is my favorite song to come out of this entire subset of bands with heavy Deftones inspiration. Such a great track!
I think Thornhill does a good job at sounding distinct enough from Deftones, most of the time. First album was more metalcore, 2nd reminded me a lot of Stabbing Westward actually. Newest album has some heavily inspired Deftones tracks I quite like, but also feels like generic nu-metal at times as well. Basically I *love* Loathe, I *like* Thornhill but most other Deftones-esque bands bore me to tears.
I also agree with LG95 about Sleep Token. I mean, I guess I understand the appeal. People act like they are so revolutionary though. Their music sounds so ham-fisted to me. I am really happy for the people that enjoy it though. Maybe I am just "old man screaming at the kids on the lawn" these days.
Finally and most important: Steph. So glad he doing better now. We all knew something was up with him but glad to know he has decided to make changes. Aging sucks. One Love everyone
Sleep token fucking sucks
Pop music with drop -M tuning breakdowns. Now loathe on the other hand top 3 favorite
1 deftones
2 pantera
3 loathe
Now look I appreciate sleep token and what they've done for people and happy they make others happy, but holy shit the music is ass, it's like Taylor swift and Sam Smith had a baby and threw in cannibal corpse as the step dad, and it sounds like the singer sounds like he's having a stroke every time he sings
No hate, just truth from me ;)
I don't usually put too much on any band's descriptions of or expressed feelings about their new album. But Stef's not one to overhype something, so when he says, 'The whole record, in total, is amazing,' I trust that at the very least he is really happy with it. And that has me quietly excited.
I have a prediction that at least 1/3 of the new tones album will be "softer" songs like Sextape, cherry waves, beauty school, etc.
I'd like that. Ohms didn't have enough of it but then again it wasn't that kind of album.
Before it hits 12, happy 15 year anniversary of diamond eyes
Top 3 tracks

15 years, bloody hell. I remember them putting it up a few days early to stream on the NME site. Didn't feel it on first listen and adored it by the third.

Ok, that is one of those facts that makes the passage of time feel so unbelieveably persistent. Wow.
delet this
Does anyone know in which cities did the whole process of writing and recording Ohms occur?
I'm not even asking about this new record, since I doubt anyone knows anything lol
LA and Seattle according to Wikipedia.
I remember reading that Chino met with Steph in LA I think, to reconnect with the root of their writing process, because of Steph's lack of involvement in Gore.
But I wonder if then the whole band went to LA and wrote everything there, and then recorded with Terry Date in Seattle?
I always wondered why Sergio never moved from NYC, given that the band is definitely based on the West Coast.
When are they ever gonna say anything abt this album, tokyo needs to tell us atleast something man,
Tokyo or rumors don't actually post here until we're about 2 weeks out from New music.
Now it's possible that they're being a little more creative with their teasing and decided to switch it up and the deleting posts means something, or we're just grasping at straws and letting the copium win, either way I enjoy the discussion/speculation about the when or whatever else happens between now and the reveal
If the deleted posts mean anything then something could probably happen this week. If nothing happens then it either doesnt mean anything or we'll have to wait till at least june.
If Stef can say he's not sure if the name's been confirmed, nor if it's been mixed yet, then it's not coming this week.
Yeah-- unless he was lying on the podcast, it'd be insane to go from not mixed/mastered and no album art... to releasing a single within a week's span.

To me it just sounded like he had no idea what is going on with it, the only thing he "knows" is that it's coming in 2025.
He sounds pretty hands off when it comes to the post production side of things

Well, today marks 8 days since TD deleted their posts to be the number 8.
The next possible day for something 8 related would be Friday, being 8 business days since the post deleting lol.
There are few things that bring me joy in the world, but new Deftones is always going to be at the top, so yes the copium levels will always be off the charts. So sue me.

Happy (early) birthday. And yeah I said the same thing to myself last year. We've really been waiting for a long time now.
As for whether I think there'll be features, maybe but only in a similar fashion to Ohms.

Yeah, I can see that fs. Some zach hill snaps haha
Maybe the new things they have never tried before that Steph mentioned will be a tambourine guest feature lol!
In all seriousness though, I would be ecstatic if Deftones had a song, or even a part of a song that leans into like funk, r&b, or disco. Basically something that makes you really wanna dance. Something like Dance Gavin Dance, Emarosa's album Peach Club, Nightlife. I don't think they would ever go that route, not even for a section of a song. I can dream though. Something like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx0hHvYM7tg
Its sad to see the forum die out slowly like this after a lot of traction. But I guess that reflects how this album cycle is going so far in terms of news.
Someday we'll see this legendary "2 more hours" from Tokyo and this thread will explode of hype
But it is possible that he will hint in some other way. Or maybe he already did, but then something had to happen
I hope so, we've waited so long already
If we go by Danny Keyes' comments and the hints he's dropped in this thread, it seems like he's telling us the release date has been pushed back to November after speaking with chinos son. It would be appear maybe there were issues with the mix (like Gore). This seems to tally with Stephen saying it's still being mixed and they had an original release date planned. I'm just speculating here and he could also be trolling.
November is around my birthday so I would love that if they released it then
I know they'll never do it, but it would be cool if they just released a single/lyric video on a Friday, no announcement, make it a premiere, don't put anything on the video description, no album title, release date, nothing. Then after the premiere, they do a live stream, "hey guys, that was our new single "blah blah blah" available right now on all streaming platforms, we're here with Frank Maddocks and he's going to reveal the cover art for the new album which is called "********". Then they do a presentation of the album art, band photos etc.. then they show the back cover of the album and reveal all the track titles, and then at the end of the stream they reveal the release date

Only in your dreams pal,
Definitely correct about it in my dreams
Only in dreams, we see what it means
Reach out our hands, hold onto the new Deftones album
But when we wake, it's all been erased
And so it seems, only in dreams
In the realm of riffs and dreamy tones,
Fans await the tenth from Deftones.
Whispers swirl, excitement grows,
Yet release dates come and go.
A serpent slithers on the art,
Its gaze alone could stop your heart.
But when will this album drop?
The waiting game just won't stop.
Enter tokyodrifter with insider flair,
Dropping hints with cryptic care.
On Sharing Lungs, the forum's hive,
He keeps the speculation alive.
"Two more hours," the famous tease,
The longest two hours, if you please!
"Trust the snake," he cryptically said,
As fans dissect each clue and thread.
Is it soon or far away?
Only 'drifter' knows the day.
So here's to the band and their elusive sound,
To the snake that's yet to be found.
We'll wait, debate, and theorize,
Until the album graces our eyes.
sruoh erom owT
No news makes me Whoooooooo. When we finally get a single I will be Wheeeeeeee
I don't see them making another album after this one... I think they'll end it on a high note.
Nah they're still young. Ish.
Depends how well received this upcoming one will be
Something about the wait for this one has just been so meh
When I started on this forum, the site was active with people having discussion. (Of course it usually always devolved into spats over who thought which Deftones album was their best, but the threads were alive.) and I discovered lots of other music and made some good connections here on this site. I'll just say that it's different nowadays.
As for Deftones, I don't think this will be their last one. They'll stop when Chino wants to stop. But I think they will just continue making less aggressive music, while still keeping it heavy. At least that's what I hope they do instead of quitting, because they're amazing at what they do and it would be a tragedy.
I think we'll be able to tell if they're gonna make more albums when this next one is out. Right now its safe to say they will.
All we gotta do is wait for it to come out... Its been in the making since February 2023 which is pretty insane to think about.
Too many days without a speculation post.
Maybe they play a new song in europe during one of the festivals that live stream their set? doubtful, but the copium is strong.

I hope so... but knowing them, they won't play anything new. In fact I believe this record wont see the light of the day til next year.
Yes, I know they've said it'll be out this year, but then again... we know how Deftones works.
This is only my 2nd album cycle as a fan, is this silence typical for them?
I think I remember someone saying there was a long wait for SNW
This is definitely the most radio silence there's ever been. They played Beware and Rapture live like eight months before SNW dropped, and they put HITE on their Myspace in late August of 2006, so we had more than a tease (probably too much tbh). I feel like they also talked upcoming albums up in the media more back in the day, but that might just be a cultural shift from then, things were different. And more social media hints, too - they were pretty active on Myspace and their website with updates and stuff. It's also the longest gap between albums now - we're going on five years since Ohms. That's half a decade, which is kind of fucking crazy to think about.
When they finally do start the rollout, I'm going to try hard as possible to only listen to the first single and that's it. No second single listens for me. I want the whole album in one shot.

I'm surprised there's not much murmuring about it neither. Some sort of rumors floating around about a certain song or any details at all that would slip through the cracks. We did hear some stuff but very sparsely.
Mystery is a good thing but at this point its just getting exhausting, slowly but surely.
Yes, exhausting is the perfect way to put it
Their rise in popularity, history of leaks and lack of streams from the last couple albums have coalesced in to a situation where the label has an iron grip on this thing. I hate that this feels like such a corporate, secretive release. Not even mysterious in a fun way.
This is why I, quite literally, went through a stage of grief and acceptance when I got the scoop many months ago. I have accepted it and expect to be wearing hoodies again before I hear even a single second from this album. Thankfully video games are popping off lately (Clair Obscur is GOATed) and this year has so many more bangers on the way. Nothing in the universe hits like new Deftones. But good games help ease the wait :)
Why did like 2 pages of posts get deleted?
vesanic deleted his posts because reasons
Ok
Same guy who deleted the ENTIRE archive of live concerts right?
Yes. He's gone from here indefinitely his own decision. Hope the best for him in his future endeavours, whatever they may be. Hopefully he will always be a fan
I just thought of a new conspiracy, what if Ves is Tokyodrifter?
He's the middle man for the band and the fans, he seems to have a lot of knowledge about things that no one else could know unless they had a contact at Warner or in the band.
Tokyos first post is "don't say i never gave you anything" as if they're a member of the forum who's been here a while. Yes another wild conspiracy, but that dude knows way to much to not be involved in some way with the band, despite his apparent lack of love for the band, which may be a ruse to throw us off.
And I think he deleted his main account so he wouldn't have to deal with the incoming posts when something new drops soon and he just wants the incoming mob of posts to come and go.
I don't think Ves was allowed to listen Ohms before it was released. But this is interesting

Honestly I had the same thought, strangely enough. He could be but I don't want to trivialize his decision (unless he decides to come back). Not that I wouldn't wanna discuss the possibility of him being tokyo, but if he's going away for serious reasons I don't want to disrespect that decision if you know what I mean.

Yes, this is the longest period of silence between albums. SNW at least had some updates here and there. DE took awhile in between but that was due to Chi's accident, but we still had updates.
I think they're just not wanting to put anything in the fans heads right now, anything they say WILL be taken at face value and I don't think they really have a definitive date atm. The lack of teasers is surprising though, which makes me optimistic that they're focusing more on the album? Perhaps they're just too busy touring and resting in between? Maybe they just want to hit us with the element of surprise. Who knows...
Idk, I don't like the fact they're withholding this much. It just depresses me. Thats just my personal opinion.
They're also rehearsing for the second leg as well.. so hopefully it's a mix of album work and rehearsing and maybe getting us some info soon.. and if a little birdy is correct.. maybe something soon?
I'm not the only one who checks Tokyo online every day, am I? ;D
Nope, its a habit I have as well whenever I come online to check this thread

What do get have to rehearse? They just came off a pretty decent sized tour with with the same songs they're going to play in Europe. Right? lol

Shaun Lopez is joining them in Europe of course.
In my opinion, they won't play anything new (though I hope I'm wrong). If anything, my bet would be to keep an eye on the Crystal Palace Park show; it seems like a significant milestone in their current tour (past and future concerts), without diminishing or offending any other date.
I love ohms sm, im re listing to it, its very dark and futuristic imo, its a melodic album, very very dark feel, like the tone, just wow

Its one of my favorite albums to listen to from start to finish whenever I can. I also think that it aged really well for me once I gave some songs that I didn't like at first listen a better chance... And also the production is superb

I love that description... "dark and futuristic" indeed.
I remember when it came out, I would go for very long walks to the financial district of my city (Santiago, Chile).
It was in the middle of the pandemic, so the place was kind of deserted.
Everytime I listen to it, I go back to those visuals, that vibe: a gloomy futuristic city, in a beautiful way. Like an old school 3D wallpaper from the artist "Digital Blasphemy".

When i think of ohms i think of urantia and radiant city [ radiant city isnt even my favorite song on there] but those 2 are like a standout on what ohms feels like. Kinds like blade runner 2049, a city with glow8ng lights and pouring its ass off, its such a good dark feel
Edit after 2 hours: and franks synth work on this album is insane, hes the entire standout honestly, we went absolutely insane, thats what MAINLY give the album thr future sound imo. And omg the synth solo at the end of pompeji, just WOW, hes a so overlooked in thr band, hes a crazy important member. NO FRANK DELAGADO SLANDER. also Sergio did amazing as well [bye sergio 💔], everyone did, but still

I hate quoting long posts but I'm glad to see someone else appreciating Frank's work on Ohms. Can't remember if it was here or Reddit but after ohms released I said I'd take a frank synth solo album after hearing his work on it lol
hey guys, I am new to this website and I find the community awesome, the stuff I find out on here about my favorite band in the world is incredible, so thank you all.
furthermore, I have some of my own news to share. Apologies if this isn't helpful but i'm just gonna let y'all know anyway.
A couple weeks ago i was on an instagram live hosted by knotfest, this british lady was talking about new albums and revewing them, i kept commenting about if there was any news on the deftones album. she eventually responded and said "as a radiohost i know a lot of things you guys dont, so get excite because its awesome"
cannot wait.
I do recall the massive buzz on the site when Ohms dropped. "The Spell of Mathematics" was the overwhelming favorite here. It is a great record, with Franks fingerprints all over it.
"Pompeji" is criminally underrated.

I highly doubt she's heard anything considering absolutely no info has leaked so far. If it's at the point they're letting anyone outside the band/producer hear anything you'd think we'd have something by this point instead of nothing.
It's JUNE (!) now. For the sake of all our collective sanity, let's hope, no, PRAY we'll start seeing something forming on the horizon soon.

It's not totally off base to be honest.
Incubus recently had a media listening event for their new album, and they aren't releasing it until October. So it's definitely possible that some music journalists have heard it, and are probably bound by NDA.

Thankfully we have the EU tour starting very soon, which could at the very least give us some updates. I hope whoever gets the chance to say something to them asks them about the album. Best case scenario is we get a new song played live in a show which is not likely but could happen.
Here's how I want the new album/single teased/revealed.
A video post on social media and it just says "Friday"... fades out.. "deftones.com"
Then when Friday comes around, it's an unlisted video, untitled, and it's the first single. After the first hour of the video release, then everything has revealed, album title, track list, album art etc and release date

I dont get it 😭
Yall mf's need to be watching stef on the breal podcast, because we all missed a little gem from Fridays show.
I don't know if anyone listened to the greenthumb podcast Friday with stef, but I'm listening just now and they were talking about people going tattoos of their favourite artists and stef was talking about that it's cool that people get their album art work tattooed on them and he likes that people do that, then he chimed in and said "-ain't nobody got our new record yet, and I can guarantee that that one is going to end up on skin, because the rest of them (album art), already have, this one (new album art) its like made for it"
Stef confirms that the album art has been chosen/finalized. That's pretty cool news.
I was about to ask if anyone had been watching those shows. I've been spinning through his appearances on there for a couple of years now but stopped very recently because I presumed someone would mention on here if anything came up again.
Another tidbit from that podcast I didnt post about here is that Stef confirmed he will be going to Toronto in September, for anyone wondering.
Well, I'm glad he'll be in Toronto, I hope he'll be there for the rest of Canada too
If they bus the first part in the west up to Winnipeg he might, it's easy for him to get from Buffalo to Toronto. Wont know about west Canada dates unless someone asks him on the greenthumb podcast
I love how evidently excited Stef has been for this record. It makes the wait both easier and harder.

Been a while since they changed anything on the site.
yep, they also updated their mailing list for the first time in 3 months... idk why but I have this feeling that this time is for real... we are getting news very soon, probably this month or next one, maybe a single, I feel it, could be wrong tho.
ALSO i'm seeing them live this Friday kicking off the Europe tour in Portugal!!!
I'll be giving updates and save the setlist to put on the website and if they say anything about the new album

Couple more days, hopefully we get a live stream from Porto.
Just a couple more days until the next tour, time flies
IT sure would be COOL if they live streamed the Porto show? Right?

Some more website code changes, nothing major just some styling code to make sure everything fits different screen sizes/widths, but I think it's a good sign that it's getting more updates a Little more frequently, going to be keeping a close eye on the source code in the coming days, unless they just push the new website design without warning.
i cant wait for tomorrow omg, and im so curious about the setlist too, do you think will be too different from the last tour?
I remember the Roskilde festival said that Deftones would debut new music when I looked a month ago. Wonder if that's still the case?
Quote from: gavinkfox on Jun 13, 2025, 02:06 AMI remember the Roskilde festival said that Deftones would debut new music when I looked a month ago. Wonder if that's still the case?
This is what they say on the Deftones page for Roskilde
" ALTERNATIVE METAL LEGENDS RETURN TO ROSKILDE FESTIVAL IN TOP FORM AND WITH NEW MATERIAL
Now, Deftones are back, marking 2025 with long-awaited new material. "
Out of all the tour dates and festivals this is the only one that mentions New music.
We'll know in less than 24 hours if they are going to play New music or not, I'm not sure if they will but I'm more optimistic about the roskilde date than any other for New music on the Europe tour.
There also doesn't appear to be any live streams from the Primavera sound Porto festival
They wont debut new material without stef
I think Deftones just finished their set
https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/deftones/2025/parque-da-cidade-do-porto-porto-portugal-735e4211.html
And...they played the exact same setlist as always. I get it, it's a festival, but I don't know, there used to be an exciting emotion about their setlists, some hidden gems or at least rotating setlist.

Just got home from the show in Porto and IT WAS INCREDIBLE. The sound quality was 1000 times better than in 2022 when I saw them too, and Chino's voice was really good, really on point and seemes much more active than before. Awesome concert fr, I will never forget it, was magical.
But yeah they played that setlist and no new music or any news... Was a cool setlist tho.

It wasn't talking about the wait for the album in particular... I guess it had to do with them playing basically the same set for like 15 years...
Wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get the album this year
Quote from: gavinkfox on Jun 14, 2025, 05:42 AMWouldn't be surprised if we didn't get the album this year
We won't, my guess is first semester 2026.
Deftones doing Deftones things. No new music live without Steph. Shocking!
Same setlist as the States, the anticipation grows...
Let's not be so down about it. From the little info out there, the band's work is done and their part's on the table. The rest is just up to the record labels. Plus, the guys need to make some money; let's not forget they barely made anything from Ohms because of the pandemic. I'm sure they're cooking up something big
In other news stef just said he is going to put up a play thru of pink maggit this week. Where's Ves? Thats as close as you're ever gunna come probably bub! Unless they bust it out after that!!
very cool, it's been over 2 years since the last playthrough video. Can't wait for friday.
i mean they kinda sucked, didn't they. you never heard the dude over the track playing
That is my biggest problem with the playthrough videos.
I just like seeing how he plays. I know he use to turn down the mix at the end of some of the videos to show he was actually playing. Lovers has that I'm pretty sure.
Would be funny if they introduced a new song via a playthrough
Quote from: Houmie on Jun 19, 2025, 08:41 PMWould be funny if they introduced a new song via a playthrough
Dude ehat if they did the intro as always but the name of the song and album thing was the wrong one and it was actually the new song, but the title of the video is pink maggot, that'd be a insane way to do so, trolling us all 😭

Sorry, I hope I did not come off as rude.
Some of those were really good. The singer that did Teenager has a wonderful voice. Minerva was great. Entombed was a swerve I was not expecting that made me smile. Edit-Forgot my favorite, the Knife Prty rendition!
I came up in the punk/hardcore scene when I was young so I am all about raw recordings. Some had unique twists, some were just normal sounding covers, and a few were just really not my taste. Rats! was the worst offender to me. Though if they had fun doing it, that's amazing and I am genuinely happy for them. I could not do any better. Really sorry if I offended anyone. I appreciate you sharing that compilation even if some of it did not sit well with me. I should have been more thoughtful with my response.

The ,,secret" thing? What is it supposed to tell us?
I don't think it was related to the new album. Just random chatter before going into HITE
It sounds like he wanted to tell us a secret, then it sounded like he's saying "we're calling it ..." then stops himself.
Another live stream today, so we'll see if he says it again...
Also I'm in the sever copium stages right now, so maybe that's just what my brain wants me to believe he said?

Nah, I have decent gaming/music headphones and he 1000% said it. The only real question why? He said it in that voice that almost sounds like the partially inaudible whispers on Lhabia. Odd behavior, but he is pretty mellow these days so I legit think it is *something*. Whether it is an actual teaser or just an Easter Egg for fans like us, who knows.

I was watching a random phone recording from a few days ago (one of their first shows in Europe) and chino starts saying the same exact thing "let me tell you a secret" before playing Hole in the earth.

Do you have a link to that?
oh shit. They changed the setlist... they added Rosemary after Sextape
No secret, no hole in the earth :D
edit: nevermind lol
HITE is just one of their best songs. Brings me to tears
Today chino had a warm secret lol
After today the probability that Chino is actually teasing something related to the album got higher, im still not sold on it though
Holy shit, apparently there's a podcast on Spotify called musically meditated, they had Woody from the change in the House of pods podcast on recently, June 8th release date, and here's just a little bit of new info:
When asked about when he thinks the new album will be out: "I think it's going to happen before the North American tour (leg 2), that is my belief, I know many are doubtful. Little birdie told me they were filming a video before they head to Europe for the European dates.
The video being for the first single, so that if the single is selected, that means everything else is done."
We're getting close now. Two more hours
Their UK publicist posted what seems to be a new photo of Chino in Manchester. Other band members such as Fred posted photos in the UK right before the first show of the european tour in Porto, meaning they met up with their publicist. Most likely about the album.
I'm started to get excited again. Based off what happened today

In short, Woody from the Change in the house of pods podcast revealed that he was told they shot a music video before the europe tour... also looks like they met up with their UK Publicist while over in the UK before they went to Portugal.
That makes 2 different people who said they were doing something before they left for europe. Only one was specific about music video.
Got it. I actually knew all that and was told not to say anything.
Quote from: kitesvera on Jun 23, 2025, 04:23 PMGot it. I actually knew all that and was told not to say anything.
Not asking for specifics, but do they have a date for when the video may be out? or album? can you confirm or deny November release? If you don't want to reply directly here, can DM.
A video/single reveal in late August and an album release in November seems possible. The video needs to be cut, mixed, mastered, etc. and then they'll sit on it for a couple of weeks. I doubt that the entire album comes out before the end of summer, despite what that dude from the podcast said.
TOKYO WENT ONLINE AGAIN! HE UPDATED HIS BIO AND HE SAYS HE HAS A SECRET!!!
So the whole 8 week theory I had was correct!
HE DELETED IT!
(https://i.imgur.com/AVLsCvh.jpeg)
It's gonna be a hot summer...a real hot summer.
I do know a tentative date for the albums release. Its not November. Its before that. I dont really wanna say any more than that.

Lol. Made it in Photoshop.
That's cold dude lol. I totally bought it. Badass lol
Its a shame we dont have any streams of today's show in order to listen to what Chino has to say this time... We'll have to rely on fan recordings, and thats only if anyone decides to record the part before HITE where he's whispering.
Deftones have hit 14m on Spotify. They've long surpassed Korn and are now creeping up on Slipknot. Drop a new album this summer and they'll easily hit 16-17m I think.
The Piece Hall account on instagram is posting a ton of clips of the show. Looks like a great crowd. They also interviewed High Vis and asked them about new music... They were opening for Deftones tonight, so I really hope they interviewed them aswell.
Hi Tokyo :)
Yes hello? Echooooo echooooo "can I tell you a secret ?"
Don't leave us in the dark again, tokyo, we see you're online...
Pretty please?
sssssssssssssssssssssslittttttttttttttttttherrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy ssssssssssssssnaaaaaaaaaaakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I have a new theory that the single drops the Friday before the Toronto shows with soad, and since stef has already said he's going to play the Toronto shows, that's where they're debuting new music live, and the album is out after leg 2 wraps up but before DDLD
Some of you might be onto something. :)

It was an incredible gig, they sounded on point, even in the lashing rain it was really cool to see them in such a unique venue
So, Friday huh?
Reposting this old theory: before tokyo deleted his posts, he had 23. He deleted 15 and left 8... 8/15 release date. Him coming back after 8 weeks since april 29th (last time he was online) makes it more believable to me.
Who is Tokyo anyways? You think it's Steph in disguise 🥸? And also who has the studio versions of Like Linus? Not the demos everyone has already heard? YouTube Deftones Too Many Freaks, some Deftones Live Concerts guy has all of em apparently

First single being released on Friday, August 15, with the North American Tour starting on August 22... Sounds good.
The official Deftones account on instagram posted a fan recording of Hole in the Earth. They never did that before for any song... For now no one posted a video of it on youtube so we cant hear what Chino said this time, but they're definitely giving us a sign.
To continue theorizing with dates... according to Wikipedia, the single HITE, SNW's first single, was released on September 12, 2006

One (or more) of the band members got sick. Im guessing its from that super rainy show in Halifax
They're confirming that they are paying Crystal palace today. They've posted the poster really early saying see you soon London
At Crystal Palace and waiting for the band to arrive on stage.
They have a large sign up saying "Private Music" with the snake tongue icon underneath it followed by ©2025 distributed by Deftones all rights reserved.
Am I out of the loop and Private Music is known quantity or is this a title for some forthcoming release perhaps?

I think that means the first taste will arrive 7/10/2025.

We don't know what private music specifically is yet. If you could, please keep an eye out for what Chino says before Hole in the Earth (or record it), it's usually after Rosemary. I would be very thankful

I did a little research and found that private music was a record label back in the 80's through mid 90's
It was founded by Peter baumann a famous electronic musician. He is German... so, connecting the dots, id assume that's why chino said all that about "German machinery"
And it connects with the pic that lance posted on chinos birthday where chino was holding a German console (?)
I bet private music is the name of the single.

This mirrors what happened with the buildup to Gore, with all the Martin Gore stuff.
Could the album be named Private Music, or just the single?

I hope they drop the single very soon 🙏🏼

Lol wtf is Private Music?? I really hope that's not the title..
I like it.
I was iffy at first but it is really growing on me. And I love they have been teasing with that logo for months already :) Ben a very slow rollout so I am ecstatic things are finally happening!
I like this title too,especially for an album.
It seems like a very thematic title. So I wonder if all the songs almost fit into that theme, "concept album" style a la White Pony.
Not a bad title, but doesn't seem Deftones-y to me? Idk
So after all this waiting, all these months of hype build, suddenly the album title just appears on a screen like that?
Is anyone else disappointed?
(If that is indeed the title, I love it)

That just means that there's a very good chance that in a couple of hours we're going to get a post on their socials announcing the album title, single date and track list possibly.
It could just be a single title too, we won't know until then though.

I'm just guessing, i'm hoping that since they posted this for everyone to see during a live show for the UK crowd, that they assumed people would be taking pictures of it.. now that the VP of Media @ Warner posted it publicly, they'll most likely need to post something about the new album on their socials sometime this week.
I'm just being hopeful that it's going to happen today, since we're only about a week and a few days out from the first single.
Got it
deftones recently changed their pfp on their official website to the snake tongue aswell, its gotta mean something super important, surely not just some random logo.

Had an amazing time. Thought the band was exceptional but, from where I was, thought the sound was astonishingly poor. Was there with my 15 year old daughter and my wife. All got a bit too hectic for my wife but my daughter and I had a wild time. Thought the group we were standing with were really into it and considerate. How about you?
Okay tokyo in disguise.... registered today and same timezone as tokyodrifter...
Quote from: SuperSecret on Jun 30, 2025, 11:09 PMI've got this weird feeling it could be something totally different—but it's probably a single, not an album title. Definitely doesn't sound like an album.
With all the secrecy, the snake imagery, Chino Moreno saying he has a secret, and that title... it kind of feels like they don't want people to hear it!
But maybe it's just about the album diving into new themes—maybe something more vulnerable. That might be what they meant when they said old fans would love it. I feel like the core Deftones fans have always had a deep emotional connection to their more layered songs. I mean, it's not like we'll ever hear them play Fireal live again.
Makes me wonder if they didn't actually rework some stuff from Eros into this (unlike with Diamond Eyes, which turned out to be false)... though maybe that's a bit of a stretch.
Anyone else got thoughts on this?
As far as if its the album name, single name or nothing at all, I just cant tell. It really could be anything for all we know.
It having eros material is a reach, I'd assume not but im not gonna entirely take it out of question. They're bound to release eros stuff sometime. But I think that time is yet to come

At this point my head is running wild with theories. They have been expanding their brand over the years, and the "distributed by deftones" part seems odd because the label owns the music. Whatever is happening, this is exciting AF!
I don't believe Eros will have anything to do with "private music" or the new album. I'd love to be wrong, but I think EWros, if revisited, will be an end of career decision. Like release it with a boxset.
Regardless....things are finally happening and I am ready for this ride!

I wouldn't be surprised. Literally already seeing that with the new "album title". People were like "Private Music? I hate it" and then less than 24hrs they're like "hol' up they're cookin. It's genius."
Someone posted this on Reddit. Looks like the official high res version. Compare the fan photo to this side by side and you'll see the font is a match.
Even the word and letter spacing

The thickness of the round parts of the letters, the p, the a with the elongated belly, the S that looks like a snake.
No idea where they found it but it looks to be the official one

It's definitely not rehashed songs. They're excited about this new album. Knowing the bands history they seem to move on quick from old stuff so I don't see this to be a collection of old songs rearranged.
What if they keep playing with us and private music is a compilation album by other artists covering deftones 🤔

Two more hours.
I was fully expecting an official announcement of some kind by now. They usually do that after teasing something at a show. Guess they're going to keep us guessing for a few more days. Maybe an announcement for the single by Friday?
Also hey guys, not new around here just a new account. Though I haven't been active since Gore, but I've been off and on around here since the self titled album. Old screen name was DFTNSHXGRM but I couldn't log back into my old account because I forgot the password and I couldn't access the email that old account was attached to. But since things are heating up I figured I might as well stop lurking and join the discussion again.. it's been a while.
I expect there'll be a proper teaser by the end of the week.

TokyoDrifter deleted his posts on here and left only 8, then disappeared for... 8 weeks. To the day.

Very interesting - thanks!
Well, Roskilde is tomorrow so I guess we'll see if anything further is revealed then.
Everlast just confirmed New album coming out in AUGUST. Stef is on the BREAL podcast, and he said AUGUST. Stef DID NOT correct him.
10/7 is indeed July fucking 10th.
JULY 10TH SINGLE AND ANNOUNCEMENT. AUGUST ALBUM RELEASE. Everyone say thank you to Everlast!
Hallelujah!
I guess the 8 thing was August then!
Everlast said the 3 songs he listened to sounded like the band hopped in a Time Machine and traveled back in time to write it. That it sounded like youthful Deftones.. That gets me all kinds of excited.
THANKS EVERLAST
Let's fucking go.

Any other tidbits?
IM SO FUCKING EXCITED I LITERALLY JUMPED OUT OF MY BED AND RAN TO MY MOMS ROOM TO TELL HER AHHH IM SO EXCITED
Well alright.
The whole crew on the Dr. Greenthumb show said the 3 songs Stef showed em "Sound amazing" and "Chino sounds amazing".
So single out 7/10, album out 8/8? Which is also a Friday.
Number 8 does look like a snake eating itself too, that gonna be sick album art if so.
Holy shit let's fucking go!!!
Its been 5 years since my last post. Been here since 2006. Has it really been 5 years since my last post ?? Stoked for this. I say this every time but ive never been more excited

Nah that's pretty much all that was said. But it's finally SOMETHING after a year of edging us. We're on the cusp of a new single. I can wait a little over a week. I'm just glad some info is coming out, big or small. I'm sure we'll get an official update from the band this week.
Anyone will try not to listen the single til August (when the album comes out)?
Me personally, I won't hahaha.
Long time lurker... two weeks boys.

Not a chance. Only thing I might avoid is if they debut it live and all we have is shitty cellphone footage of it. And even then I dunno if I can hold off tbh lol
I'm gonna stream the shit out of this single and album when they come out. I've been waiting a long time.
How many tracks we hoping for guys? I hope they give us a solid 12 track album.
I think kitesvera said there was 11 tracks

Didn't Steph say it was more like KNY. The Time Machine quote is gonna set everyone's expectations too high like Terry being back with them for Ohms did.

Yeah, Stephen said it was a "continuation of Ohms and Koi".
But Chino said if we've been a fan for 30 years we're gonna love it, and now the time machine thing...

He said something similar about Ohms as well. I just try to take the quotes with a grain of salt. Still stoked for new tunes. Nothing beats a new Deftones record in the summertime.

Yeah, it's an exciting statement though to be sure. However, they've never let me down in 20 years of them being my favorite band. I'm just ready to listen to what they've cooked up. It's always exciting getting a new Deftones album. But *some* fans will definitely hear that statement and run with it expecting Around The Fur 2.0

Yeah same. I definitely like some stuff better than others but I've never been let down either. Glad we're getting a quick turn around too instead of an agonizing three or four month wait!
I'm really excited to see the song titles most of all, and the album cover.
Quote from: gavinkfox on Jul 02, 2025, 12:04 AMI'm really excited to see the song titles most of all, and the album cover.
Same. Could be mistaken but it feels like this album cycle they've been way more tight lipped than more recent past album cycles. I could be projecting but it leads me to believe they have made something really special with this one. Feels like they want it to be as much of a surprise as possible.
I haven't posted in quite a while but I'm always back around new album cycle time to hang out and discuss any tidbits we find. Good to be back. I'll be 40 in August and I can't think of anything better than a new Deftones album to spin all summer.
Quote from: StarSlinger on Jul 01, 2025, 11:06 PMHow many tracks we hoping for guys? I hope they give us a solid 12 track album.
It's time for the double album.
With what little we've heard people comment on the new music, everyone is making it sound like Deftones sounds hungry on this new album. Just a little over a week away from our first taste, fellas.
Is anyone else slightly concerned that no one has specifically said or tweeted July 10th officially?
Everlast said "This man has a record coming out much sooner in August that I just heard a few songs from." So 1000% he says new record in August. But then he says "That record is amazing, all 3 ones that I heard." Almost like he means record is just a song. Nowhere is July 10th mentioned. I know we have the Private Music poster. But why has no official account on social media confirmed anything yet? It's like they understand the confusion and just let it continue to brew.
Or maybe I am just so jaded from a 6 year wait that I can't believe anything until I hear it lol. I'm probably just trippin'
10/7 can only really be October 7th or July 10th. If the album is out in August, then the date on the teaser has to be July 10th because I'm pretty sure they're not going I promote a single for after the album is out.

Remember that social media/website teasing for both Gore and Ohms happened exactly a week before the first singles dropped. So they probably won't start teasing until Thursday at the earliest.
From theprp article: also mentioned that the record would be 'distributed by Deftones', seemingly indicating a label shakeup. The band had most recently been signed with Reprise/Warner.
If the band is distributing it themselves maybe that's why this rollout is so different.
And the crowd goes wild! Lol, love the excitement and share it! Next few weeks here are gonna be fun!

I noticed this too. They're certainly big enough to DIY their next album. Could be what's taken this album longer than they originally expected? I also wonder if this has anything to do with the phrase "Private Music."
Based on the available information, it appears Deftones are currently not under a record deal and are operating as "free agents" as of April 2025.
Could "Private Music" be their own label name?
Could be "Private music" the name of their new own label, instead of a single or album title?
According to Google - Private Music was an American independent record label founded in 1984 by musician Peter Baumann as a "home for instrumental music". So it's likely not the name of their own self-publishing, but it could be a reference or a clue?

Isn't their publishing "my rib is broke." Also bauman formed tangerine dream, 80s electronic group. Likely a nod from Chino.

Thanks for this. I was going fucking crazy skimming the "New Deftones Music" timestamp trying to find where he specifically says August..Didn't know it was in the Everlast Album one..
But HOLY SHIT. This feels good man..
And I don't think he was mixing up words by calling songs records.
He says he's got a record coming out in August and he's heard 3 songs from that record.
I'm too stoked
So, in just over a week we should get our first taster of the album.
I think the "time machine" thing is a bit of a misnomer in so much as I'll bet that Everlast is referring to the energy of the songs he's heard rather than them being like Around the Fur type tracks.
Obviously, I'm hoping for some good old heaviness on the new record but I also hope there's some nice atmospherics too.

Yeah, I think you're right. He specifically said the band sounded "youthful" on the songs he listened to. That tracks with their live performances lately. I felt Chino in particular, looked, behaved, and sounded more youthful than he has in 10+ years when I saw them back in March.
I wonder if/when they'll start to tease the single of it will just drop on the 10th with the album announcement.
When does deftones go on in Denmark and will there be a livestream?
Quote from: Dawnofwar2010 on Jul 02, 2025, 03:32 PMWhen does deftones go on in Denmark and will there be a livestream?
Midnight local time, and sadly there is no official livestream.
Well they're sure as hell good at keeping their music private, at least this time.
Quote from: HeadInTheLouds on Jul 02, 2025, 07:02 PMHey y'all
I don't think this is going to be a single. It's more likely to be an announcement or maybe a listening party.
I doubt it, if the new record is coming out in August, then the single next to come asap...and according to that "private music" with the Roman numerals and shit...it'll happen on the 10th.
Do we know for a fact or are just assuming Fred Sablan played bass on this record..
Quote from: GR1X7S on Jul 02, 2025, 08:17 PMDo we know for a fact or are just assuming Fred Sablan played bass on this record..
They posted a band pic with him a few weeks ago on social media. It's him. And rumor is Lance will also have some parts on the album.
Quote from: HeadInTheLouds on Jul 02, 2025, 08:24 PMI'm not sure. You're probably right, in fact, I thought it was painfully obvious that this was going to be a single but looking back, maybe it is a bit too obvious?
You would think they'd tease a single on their social media first, where they can reach their global fanbase directly. It seems strange to rely on fans posting photos from a live show to spread the word.
Also, why wouldn't they release it on a Friday? I understand if they're independent now, but I don't see them ignoring industry norms just for the sake of it. Releasing music on a Thursday seems unlikely without a specific reason.
My guess is that it will be something different, and then the singles will follow soon after. Still, something about this whole situation feels a bit off.
They dropped Prayers/Triangles on a Thursday and other singles on days other than Friday as well.

The Foo Fighters released a single today (Wednesday). I think you and others are way overthinking all of this. Just relax and let it come.
At this point, not releasing a single on the 10th would be weird and off.
There are no real hard dates for single releases. Album releases will always happen on a Friday.

Currently, UK releases come on a Monday, with US releases following a day later. From now on, new albums and singles will be released at 00:01 on Fridays. (...)
I think there's definitely a hard date for singles.
I get that people are expecting this to be a single, but the announced date doesn't actually line up. Deftones being Deftones, they could do something totally off the usual path, but with the way they've handled things in the past, if it were a single, they'd probably release it on a Friday even as a self-released track, unless they picked out July 10 for some specific reason.
And again, on TOP of that, they've teased it at a live show. I just don't see why they'd drop it on a Thursday without any online announcement so far if it were actually going to be a single.
So yeah, it's possible this isn't a single after all.

I've seen lots of bands drop singles on various days of the week over the past few months, at least.
We know that the album is out next month so a month prior for a single release, along with next week's date, does align with typical release strategies. Also, it looks like the band is self distributing.
At the very least, we'll know more in a week's time.
Also, that info is out of date. Albums come out on Fridays everywhere now.
Quote from: LG95 on Jul 03, 2025, 12:02 PMAlso, that info is out of date. Albums come out on Fridays everywhere now.
It's not the date for the album release,just a single.
Turnstile released the lasts singles one on tuesday and another one on wednesday.
I'll be extremely confused and surprised if we don't get a single and album announcement/pre-order details next Thursday.
Its logical to me that the 10th will be the album announcement, and soon to follow on the 10th going into the 11th first single + music video. That's what happened with Ohms, announced on the 20th of august, technically single released on the same day but music video came out on august 21st. Thursday + friday.
What are people's hopes/predictions for how the new album will sound?
I know that Stef mentioned it being a continuation of Koi and Ohms but I hope it leans more towards Koi.
Really hoping for a mix of some aggressive Stef riffs and tracks that are maybe in a similar vein to Rosemary.
hey yall, this is unrelated but i was looking at sergios insta, and found a post of a copy of diamond eyes that was strictly for him only that he got for his birthday. and it has a song called yum yum on it? if anyone could answer that would be great. dont know how to post pictures on this website sorry 😭
noticed risk isnt on there, weird.
I think a mix of Koi and Ohms sounds perfect. As someone who loves Ohms, I hope they expand on that sound but with the more epic song writing of Koi. I all but tuned out of the internet in late 2020, so I didn't care about people's opinions of Ohms. It wasn't until maybe a year or two ago that I learned Ohms was apparently a somewhat divisive album? That came as a surprise to me as I felt Ohms was a huge step up from Gore, and the band sounded like Self Titled meets Diamond Eyes to me. I really enjoy that album, so if they wanna continue in that direction but expand on it, then that's great. But each album has its own vibe, so I'm also looking forward to something fresh and new from them and not too much retreading what they've done.

Something new, mostly. I just hope this album has a rich landscape/atmosphere like Ohms did, but only to sound more expansive when you listen. I would also want some more aggressive stuff in there like you said.

Yum yum was a placeholder name for one of the songs I think.
EDIT: Yep, it is. Yum yum could also just be Risk, fyi. Its one of the songs off of the album for sure though.

if they dont release new music in thursday, probably july 10th will be the announcement of the first single, releasing on the next day (friday 11th), like they did with ohms!! With Ohms they announced on a Thursday too and next day Friday they released Ohms with the album announcement, probably that is it!!
If we're considering what Ohms+KNY means...
My favorite aspect of Ohms is how the songs often blended into eachother, via Frank. If they expand on this, that'd be sick. It gave that album a lot of momentum.
It would pair really well with KNYs progressive song structures.

Just hasn't been updated yet. If something new was played we'd know by now.
Also, since today is a week from announcement/single, we should get some kind of teasers starting today... if they do things similar to the gore and ohms roll out.
It's also funny that it's going to be exactly 8 days since Tokyodrifter was last online, considering the post count is 8, and he disappeared for 8 weeks after making his post count 8.... That's a seemingly small coincidence.

Yes, I'm with you on Frank. A little more Frank would be nice!
Also, as a drummer, I'm excited to hear what Abe pulls out of his bag of tricks. He's king of the hi-hats for me and love some of the grooves he unleashed on Diamond Eyes particularly.

Good question but no idea. It's unusually quiet on the Reddit sub.

No teasers today I guess
We just have to wait till the 10th
Definitely not getting anything tomorrow, being July 4th weekend and all.
Next week Thursday or Friday. Hopefully
100% getting something Thursday.
Let's not have any doubts about july 10th now. I know this week has been quiet but that doesnt mean anything. Its just a marketing choice, or is somehow affected by the ongoing tour
My gut tells me this next album is going to be a classic
Same here. Very excited
Ditto
July 10th. Album 10.
Maybe not release album, but crazy coincidence that revealing it falls on the 10th.
I don't see them doing it. Partly because of Everlast's comment on the Dr Greenthumb show, but also because it's just not the best marketing strategy. A month long rollout sounds about right.
I think an official presentation/announcement of the record (which may be called private music..track list, merch, pre orders, release date etc) will happen on the 10th, followed by the lead single on the 11th which is Friday

Exactly my thoughts, just like what happened with Ohms!
Im really looking forward to the art direction of this record. Like the overall vibe, and aesthetic of it. Every one of their records have been so uniquely separate from one another. To me its part of the fun. The band is extremely creative when it comes to that aspect of a release
Let's get through the weekend folks, then we'll be in the home stretch.
I'd gone back to feeling patient about this record until I saw that screen last Sunday.
Yeah I have a great feeling about this album.
I told my friend that Around the Fur has always been my favorite, and Adrenaline has always been my least favorite. The other seven albums are all tied at second place. I just literally cannot rank their albums.
I just have a suspicion this one is going to break that streak and jump to number two all time. I don't think anything will ever pass ATF simply because of nostalgia and how I feel like it's literally the perfect record for my tastes. I am so hype for this week!
What?

Why do we have to be so cryptic lol. What does this mean can we elaborate? Perhaps im stupid 🤷🏻�♂️
To wrap this all up, we expect a single this coming week, and an announcement for the album. Most likely. As well as other things.
What the hell just happened lol?

No idea.. Took an evening off from checking the thread, and we suddenly got more cryptic ass clues.
If the album does drop in August, which does seem extremely likely, we're only 8 weeks max away.
More breadcrumbs leading us further down the rabbit hole. These album cycles are always fun
Nature's playground?
What we know so far
An August release date was shared on the podcast
"Private Music"
Snake motifs
Chino whispering "I have a secret" before playing HITE live.
Am I missing anything? I'm so curious about the significance with HITE... it was the first single for that album I think, and it was released in September. But that makes no sense in any of the context of what was said. The mystery continues...

There's also the Velvet Hammer guy's IG post from last year when he visited Chino and Nick in the studio:
https://www.instagram.com/p/C6wXnYxpB2I/?hl=en
Of course it's just an IG post, but from his description, we can get a sense of the direction they are going in this time around - heavy, futuristic, spacey. Deftones basically, but still, it's something.
After that, there's been some murmurings here and there (rumored b-sides, Lance contributing to the album, etc.), but nothing officially confirmed.
Chino, if you're reading this: start a new Mixlr but only invite me. I love Nils Frahm as much as you do and I won't share those new jams with a soul.
It's official, last night of European tour is underway. Now we're in countdown mode to Thursday.
If such a leak arises, what are the best apps to identify the song name?
I remember this being done with Ohms for Urantia and Error, using Chinos Mixlr leaks. It was an app different than Shazam.
I still find the screen announcement weird for some reason...
For me there's no way "Private Music" is either the album or the single's title.

Aha Music possibly.
I ran this year's live interlude through Shazam, Google, and Aha Music this weekend, to no avail.
We would need a clip from the studio version to be able to identify it.

Private Music is the name of something, otherwise why blast an image with the words on it in front of a crowd?
Private music just may be Eros but not likely. After all, it has been private for 15 years.... Long time user and lurker here, it's been years. But I go back to the self title days. Had to switch names a few times, but yeah this is DefFshoand I'm excited for all of you! I think I missed out on the last record or two because I was too lazy to start anew
Private Music sure does sound like a single
Sounds more like an album title to me but what do i know
I really do hope they follow through and drop the single this week and they announce the album.
Quote from: CalDavCan on Jul 06, 2025, 09:41 PMPrivate Music sure does sound like a single

I was watching the Southside Festival that's on YouTube today, and noticed Chino said before Hole in the Earth he's got a secret, it's a "warm secret". Anyone have a clue? At least I think that's what he said, the time stamp is at the 38 min
How does HITE fit in with the new album (Private Music):
1) Sonically, is it the closest?
2) Lyrically? I'm thinking the opposite, since they all like eachother, by all accounts, nowadays.
3) Saturday Night Wrist, in general, may be a parallel to this new record? Idk how.
4) It just was the best time in the set for Chino to get cryptic. Maybe it just felt right, and there is no meaning.
Even if there is meaning to choosing HITE as the time to say he "has a secret", it's likely loose and impossible to know until we hear the record...
My thoughts, at least.

What I'm most excited about is the track listing. What the song titles are especially, and if there are any potential features.

Hey, Welcome to SL! Gonna be a fun summer here :D
Here's a random thought. The whole Chino "I have a secret" thing before HITE at many recent live shows. All the "snake references". Where does a snake live?
Also Private Music I'm betting is the name for their new self anointed "label" since they are done with Warner.
And yeah agreed, gonna be a fun summer here!

I dunno, the vp of media at Warner brothers might put a wet blanket on the idea of their own label? Maybe a Warner spin off label.
Only 3 days left until July 10th and we still have no "official" announcement of any kind nor either any new teaser AAAAAA 😭
Two more hours...

Private music doesn't really sound like a record label to me because it's just too on the nose.. but this band is far from conventional.
Quote from: CalDavCan on Jul 07, 2025, 03:09 PM1087
Got 2 guesses for now, one not so out of pocket and the other out of pocket.
Neon, or, Eros?
I am not sure why some people say that "Private Music" doesn't sound like a deftones album title. I remember way back then, a lot fans thought they were trolling with the title "Saturday Night Wrist", but then people got used to it. I am not saying Private Music is the new title, but I would honestly not write it off.

if "private music" is the single or album name I totally love it, it suggests an atmospheric track full of depth and intimacy, Deftones vibes 100%
Hours until release is my guess. Depending on your timezone that will expire on August 22nd.
1087 more hours.

I think that's the point, July 10th is gonna be the moment the first announcement/trailer will appear with a release date , and I don't expect a full single then, just tidbits to build hype, with a single very soon after.
ITS HAPPENING!!!!

Thursday is gonna be fun
Can't wait for Thursday!
So fucking excited
Two more hours?
It's good to have a (almost) confirmation even though it is not that surprising.
I can't believe this day has finally arrived. It's been a long 5 and 1/2 years. I adored Ohms and always will, but I don't know if I've been this excited for an album and a really long time!
These are obvious screenshots of the music video, and I really hope it is more than just the band playing with cool visual effect, though it doesn't really matter really.
Omgggggggg!!! Long Long Long time lurker. Two more hours we will all be out of pocket.
I have a feeling I'll be spending $50-60 on a vinyl pre order this week

ohms was the last CD I bought as I don't have a vinyl player. I don't want to listen to the new album exclusively on spotify because it does not feel like I am giving my hard earned money to the band. I really don't want a cd though, not sure what is my other options. I guess buy a vinyl I'll never listen to and grab the lossless audio somewhere.

It's an expensive hobby but it's a great way to experience music..especially atmosphere music like Deftones and Crosses
The lyrics post is a similar thing they did with Ohms. Remember they had that "This is our Time" billboard in LA
Let's. F'n. Go. This gonna be a long week but I'm beyond excited! This just gave me much needed energy to get through today and it's just a screen shot from what I'm guessing is a music video

No

I dont visit often but been here since 2006. 19 damn years. Probably longer than some of these folks are old. If that makes sense
The new people are always the ones who have a handle saying something like they've been lurking since '06 or whatever. Lurked for 20 years but THIS is the album that gets them to make an account lol.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if that's the case. They've been edging the hell out of us with this album release.
Apparently the new single is called My Mind is A Mountain.

Love the song title by the way. It's very unique for a Deftones' title. Chino doesn't typically go for long titles; with a few exceptions. Can't wait to hear it. Initially it sounds like a heavy song but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up falling into the more grand Minerva-esque side of their soundscape.

Yea I'm kinda hoping they go back to more slower Minerva-esque Single but it's unlikely. Most of their singles of recent have been really radio friendly.

Sorry, I thought they had the entire tracklist, I misread.
Also, remember that sometime after Chi passed away, Chino said Chi was "a mountain of a man". I like to think it is a reference to that. SO. FUCKING. HYPED!

Chino doesn't typically go for long titles; with a few exceptions. Can't wait to hear it. Initially it sounds like a heavy song but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up falling into the more grand Minerva-esque side of their soundscape.
Yea I'm kinda hoping they go back to more slower Minerva-esque Single but it's unlikely. Most of their singles of recent have been really radio friendly.
As much as I like Ohms, my one hang up with it is that it lacks any truly beautiful songs such as Minerva. I feel like there's so many I can name from the WP-KNY period and they're a big reason I love Deftones as much as I do. I still want the heavier stuff, I just hope they don't shy away from including songs akin to stuff like Entombed, 976-Evil, Riviere, etc. Not that I necessarily want them to retread water playing the same sort of stuff for forever, I just don't want them to lose that more tender side they have.
That being said, I'm excited for whatever they decide to give us and I have a feeling this is going to a special album.

Totally agree.
Looks like they went in a Time Machine with this title.
Pompeji was the truly beautiful song on Ohms (and what a song if you want my opinion...... ok nobody asked for it....).
So now we know almost everything from the new record, what's your album tier list ? 8)

So I did something editing on cap cut and overlayed both new images and lighted spliced it so I could see what fret stef is playing on. Its either the 11th, 12th or 13th fret [yes 30 minutes of work for that] [i feel like its more the 11th or 12th fret]
Im an insane guitarist take me away 😭🙏
I love the single title, anyone else? Album title seems great as well. Very pumped to see the other track titles as well
Definitely unusual titles for Deftones, which has me even more excited
I love the title sm, it really rolls of the tounge well, and it just sounds heavy
Song title has a little ,,i am very smart" vibe. Looking forward to thursday!
all feels like really good precision planning, finish the Euro tour, then drop some image teasers, single this week, yes I am excited very much!

Good find. Maybe Steph will be doing some single note soloing, like in their more anthemic songs (Smile, Sextape, Dallas)
Never has a fan base been more ready.
Think we'll get more cryptic lyric teases throughout the week leading up to the album announcement and single release on the 10th?

Always a good possibility.
I would like some music teaser,like they did with Prayers/Triangles.
Anybody wondered if the two screen shots of the music video are two different songs? Abe has a hat on in one and no hat in another. Just an observation.
Does anyone think that "My Mind is a Mountain" may be the first single, and then a few weeks later the second single could be "Private Music?" Just a thought I had. They kinda did that with "Ohms" and "Genesis" around that album cycle...

Doubtful. Why tease the second single first? If the album release is a month after MMIAM don't see them releasing another song so quickly. Gotta give the first single a chance to marinate.

I stand corrected. Looks like ohms was only released like a month before as well. I was thinking it was a longer wait than that :-\
New post!!
HELL YEAH THIS IS INSANE
Chino looking to fine [no homo]
Edit: I feel like the lyrics remind me of radient city
Edit 2: I also feel like the colors and the photos are like very futuristic and like dystopian feeling its very ominous
The black and white aesthetic is heavily reminding me of some of the White Pony promo shots and marketing.
To me, from the lyrics revealed so far, it totally sounds like a song written during the pandemic
I like how Chino has become more introspective and relatable with his lyrics for past couple albums. I'm sure there's going to be plenty of off the wall, cryptic lyrics on this record as usual. The more personal side that he's been showing lately is kind of unique to them. In the past he's always kind of hid behind metaphors.
I guess what I'm trying to say is he's probably always been very personal, it's just never been as obvious. Hype levels are reaching maximum!
I hope MMIAM video is not similar to Genesis, all if'em jamming and that's it! Don't lack ideas this time guys! Let's keep in mind that for them making videos is like: Acting Gary! Acting! 🎬

Quote from: kleptoned on Jul 08, 2025, 08:54 PMAnyone see the reddit post claiming single cover? And or album cover
I did a quick reverse image search and I couldn't find this exact image of this snake. So I dunno. Might be legit, because it doesn't appear to be an image someone photoshopped (source I'm a graphic designer/use photoshop). It looks to me to be a genuine photo of the snake on green material. It's cool, I dig it. The bright green is unexpected.
Edit: The user that posted the image posts A LOT on the Apple Music subreddit. Posts a lot about stats and numbers. Totally guessing on my end but they may have insider access to getting something like early album/single artwork. Just throwing that out there. Not vouching for it personally.
Def seems more plausible then then the last one
I need to see the tracklist and album cover. Someone has to have seen it already

a guy on reddit said it could be just a green screen, to add a background or change to the color they want, so probably its not gonna be that weird green!!
also there is another post on reddit with the Private Music Themes and there is also that same snake with multiple background colors!
https://www.reddit.com/r/deftones/s/MUBHAkCNiP (https://www.reddit.com/r/deftones/s/MUBHAkCNiP)
FILTER News posted the green snake artwork and song title. Very reputable leaker, they are right 99.99% of the time.
My take on the single cover.

The green is kinda growing on me,
Green is the opposite of purple, and the snake was originally purple

Milk of the Madonna might be the secy dance track I've been wishing Deftones would write for years. if anything it will be the Sextape, Cherry Wavesm Rosemarym etc of this album. I'd bet anything.

Remember Madonna first signed them to her label. It's a throwback to her for sure.

"""Milk of the Madonna" refers to the artistic depiction of the Virgin Mary breastfeeding the infant Jesus, known as Madonna Lactans or Virgo Lactans. ""

I find it funny when people try to guess how a song would sound like by its title name.

I am glad the first single is the first song of the album this time, and not the last one. Hearing the closing track for the first time with the rest of the song is a must for me, and it kinda ruined the Ohms experience.
Ditto
I didn't mind it because Ohms the song was a big, bright high note to end the record, so it was like a familiar celebratory epilogue the first time I listened all the way through. The only closer of theirs that would fit for a first single.
I wasn't a fan of Ohms as the closing track. Especially on first listen because when you get to that final track, it's like "well, I already know this song." So the second to last track felt more like the closer to me. I actually think Ohms would've fit better in front of Headless instead of the closer. But overtime I enjoy it as the closing track, it just dampens the first listen a little bit when you've already heard the closer.
I personally hope they only release 1 single this time. I want to go into this album knowing as little as possible. Especially if we're only getting 11 tracks this time.
I really really like the song titles. Thought a few were weird at first but the more I look at them the more I like them

The only title that's unconventional for Deftones is "I think about you all the time." Though it's the song I'm probably most curious about because of the straightforward title.

I have a take on thr 2nd track song "locked club"
I think locked club stands for a person who doesn't show themselves and is a very quiet person, but once you know them we'll enough, the are like a club the are insane, amd crazy maybe fun. But they mightve needed to stay locked
It could be about Chino's favorite strip club that was closed down because of covid.

If this is indeed a single release, is it going to be one of those deals where it's out in Australia way before we have access to it in the US?
Usually Australia gets the albums about a day before we get it due to time zones.
I've been searching for a leak for hours to no avail. So no...I reckon there will be an announcement within the next hour (corresponding to the rough time that the teaser pics were released the last two days) stating when the new single is dropping tomorrow.
There has to be some Aussies here... Right???
At what time is the single releasing?
Quote from: Kimdracula976 on Jul 09, 2025, 05:22 PMAt what time is the single releasing?
Probably 10am PDT, so 23 hours and 35 minutes from now?
I still think the single release will be only Friday.
In the announce with the roman date 10th July, it was the announcement of Private Music, not the single, so I'm really thinking that Thursday (July 10th) will he just the official announcement of the album, with the announcement of the single on the Friday, just like what happened with Ohms.
Idk but Im just expecting the album announcement tomorrow, with the single announcement for Friday!

Between it and the alleged tracklist, it seems like they are going to be trying out new things, which definitely has me really intrigued. Can't wait to see what's in store for us these next 2 days.
I feel like the album cover will look sick as hell in person. Especially the vinyl.
Quote from: B_S_79 on Jul 09, 2025, 05:02 PMIf this is indeed a single release, is it going to be one of those deals where it's out in Australia way before we have access to it in the US?
Usually Australia gets the albums about a day before we get it due to time zones.
New Zealanders get it first. It will be midnight Friday there when its 8am Thursday EST.
F5 season is here boys!!!
The same site that leaked the album and release date said the single will come out on July 10th, so yea, if you believe the album leak, believe the single leak too.
I don't understand this insistence on Friday when everything has been pointing to tomorrow.
Quote from: nicklav on Jul 09, 2025, 06:09 PMI don't understand this insistence on Friday when everything has been pointing to tomorrow.
Because deftones have often release album name and release date and a single teaser before the real single.
I think album announcement came with single on Ohms.
More teasers up. "We display it in our patience. Locked in this stage plotting our time"
This is all the lyrics posted in order:
Negative space in cycles been caught on our radar,
we've been waiting here patiently locked in this state clocking our time,
why do we bathe in this psyche?
remain calm in our mental
we display it in our patience
locked in this stage plotting our time
That red image is ominous asf
Quote from: LG95 on Jul 09, 2025, 06:19 PMI think album announcement came with single on Ohms.
yeah you are right
84 pages most likely a couple more to happen before we get a single note of new music. That's absolutely crazy
I mean the first post was 2 years ago. This album took forever to come out.
Ohms video was announced the day it was releasing, and it came out at 21:00PDT, 0:00 EDT. And the single released on 21st, i'm assuming same time as the video.
9 hours to wait then.
Personally I would think around this time tomorrow, the same time they've been showing these teasers, is when they will announce the single or drop the single. I don't think we're getting anything tonight. I'd love to be wrong
I can never help myself to Deftones news, but I kinda wish I didn't see the tracklisting. I learned a long time ago that it always puts expectations in my head on how I want/think the song will sound, and I am always given a shock when I actually hear it and it sounds nothing like what I expected. I'm going to listen to the single and then really just wait until I have the rest of the album.
The green in the album cover is a little off putting. I honestly thought they were going to go with more of the white purple pink color scheme we saw previously. Of course when I first saw S/T album cover I was like "cool, but what are they metallica now?" Lol, Idk it just made me think of a metal band cover like that, a stark comparison to the artsy, minimalist cover of WP.
[edit] I really came to love the S/T album cover, it's my favorite one. But it caught me off guard.
Two more hours...
Ahh man yeah the S/T cover is by far my favorite cover of their's. I think it's also my favorite album if I had to pick one. The snake cover has already grown on me substantially in the last 24hrs. It'll look even better in person on a vinyl. I wonder what color the vinyl record will be. White?
Quote from: Inkblades on Jul 06, 2025, 05:51 PMQuote from: Draken on Jul 06, 2025, 05:30 PMWhat we know so far
An August release date was shared on the podcast
"Private Music"
Snake motifs
Chino whispering "I have a secret" before playing HITE live.
Am I missing anything? I'm so curious about the significance with HITE... it was the first single for that album I think, and it was released in September. But that makes no sense in any of the context of what was said. The mystery continues...
After that, there's been some murmurings here and there (rumored b-sides, Lance contributing to the album, etc.), but nothing officially confirmed.
Oh yea, I forgot there were some rumors to be some b-sides and/or covers. I REEEEEAAAALLLY hope that's true.
Dear baby Jesus make it happen.
I hope we get b sides. I'll take some new covers but I miss the old days where we got a b side or two from them. Lovers and Damone are some of my favorite songs of their's..
Hate me all u want but I dont want any covers or bsides, I want all new music 😔

Private Music has nothing to do with their new album. It's a new, independent label of theirs and they will be transferring all pre-existing music under it.

In the past B sides were usually on single releases or sometimes at the end of the cd after a long break. Sometimes they'd be attached to a movie soundtrack etc. Nowadays with streaming and digital media - yes, B sides are usually reserved for a deluxe edition that comes later or a remaster/rerelease or Record Story Day etc.

Well, it is too bad that you are wrong, and you are the one that should get smarter before calling other people dumb. The album title, release date, cover art and song titles have all leaked and "private music" is indeed the album title.
and if this was a joke, well I guess I can't read sarcasm.
New Deftones music is coming. It's about time.

Relax, kid.
I can't believe this thread was started two years ago. Almost to the day we get a single/album news
So... what is this community's best guess for the single's release time tomorrow?
I heard someone say 10am Pacific Time?
No idea.. I was assuming around the same time that the teaser lyric images have been going up.
I will be staying up til midnight though just incase. But probably won't get anything until mid day tomorrow. They haven't even put up a premiere video on their YouTube channel or anything.

My guess would be the same time.

I had a dream where deftones released their new album and it was a fucking rap album, with like Lil darkie or something it was so ass, I started to cry in my dream from how bad it was 😭
Our shared mental illness here is worth studying...lol
How many more hours?
2 more hours...
The first track of every album has been a single, often the first single in many cases. All of them range from either heavy bangers (MOS/Genesis/Hexagram) or epic banger (Diamond/Swerve/Prayers/HITE). Which type of banger we thinking "My Mind is a Mountain" is going to be?

And the crowd goes mild..
I don't think this song is leaking or dropping early. They seem to have this new album locked tight. Usually we've heard a snippet by now.. Given how quiet they've been up to this point on the whole album roll out, they probably have a tight grip on this album. Coupled with rumors that it might be self-published, we might not hear anything until everyone else does this time around doods.

Awesome!
Patience, lads.
I feel like this rollout is very controlled. They want to announce Private Music on 7/10. What that entails? Who knows, But I really don't think the song will come prior to the band announcing it/posting it themselves.
What I think/hope, is a big post or a series of posts midday US time, same time as the teasers. It could possibly include album artwork, tracklisting, pre-order dates, a single and who knows what else. I just can't see them shadow dropping the single BEFORE their Private Music reveal. Could it leak? Sure? Could I be wrong? 100%. Just my read on this.
I say enjoy one more sleep. We've been waiting here patiently, locked in this state clocking our time. The next time you sleep you will have new Deftones swirling in your mind spaces like waves. Until then, remain calm in our mental.

Any cool stories?
Do you know where The Spot is?
I met the band backstage during the 2003 club tour at the Crest Theater. My dad worked with Chi's dad at the hospital and he got me backstage passes.
They were all really cool to me but I was just a high schooler so I didn't have much to say. Chino said what's up and Abe gave me a pair of signed sticks I still have.
Not familiar with the Spot.
Edit: oh, you mean their rehearsal spot. Nah, I never knew where that was.
That's awesome!
Would be cool to see a pic of those drum sticks!
My understanding is that they have a rehearsal space in Sacramento that they call The Spot.
It's like their secret headquarters.
I can post them later.
Yeah, I've seen it in a bunch of videos.
Was that 2003 show the best one you've seen from them?
Quote from: Moana91 on Jul 10, 2025, 05:31 AMWas that 2003 show the best one you've seen from them?
No, the one I saw a few months later was. That was the arena tour in San Jose. It was a lot like the 2003 Wembley show. Just so moody and atmospheric in their performance.
I just looked up the Crest Theatre setlist and they played Battle-Axe! What a cool thing must have been to hear them play it in that Self Titled era!
They only played 11 songs tho?

Fucking amazing.
I honestly don't remember how many songs they played. I trust that setlist.fm has it right though.
Back to the single, something about the title "My Mind is a Mountain" and the aesthetic of those screenshots screams "Gojira" to me.
its gonna be epic , ooh i love when new Deftones music comes out yeee

Quote from: Wondering on Jul 10, 2025, 06:55 AMI heard new deftones music comes out on July 10th.
Did you? Have Deftones announced that? It is only July 10th in the west coast of the US in 3 minutes. There are still 24 hours of the day to go.
Their signage said July 10th.
Previously they released at midnight on their release date. But it's different this time.

Sorry I commented sm today, but the title "Private music" matches so well with the leaked titles, its such a mysterious name and the the song "cXz" and ~metal dream, like its so good. This is insane. I know I've only been a deftones fan for 3 years, but they are my favorite band and I'm glad we've come to see this 10th album, love you guys!

I remember the Gore thread getting to 100+ by the time the second teaser was out. Crazy fast
I can't fall asleep it is 4 am, im so gonna get yelled at
90 pages of almost nothing ;D
Always a good time but right now I don't have high expectations for the new record unless the single dropping proves me wrong.
Hoping to see Stephen and Abe shining on this one.
When have they ever disappointed us?
In my twenty years of living, Deftones has never disappointed me once! This is definitely gonna be a banger single and a banger album
Little more than 2 hours to go before our next potential time for single to release!
Havent been on here in so long. Glad to see familiar faces (usernames) lol.. 2 more hours yall

Same. They might literally be the only singular thing in my life that has never disappointed or let me down in like 20+ years of being a fan. Which is pretty nuts. If anything, they are consistent.

I was very very disappointed by self-titled because my expectations were never going to be met after white pony. I got extremely depressed because of that. Yea I was young. I like the album now, but this wasn't what i wanted and needed then.
Now I fully stopped having any expectations, and just hope I like it enough, and if not, oh well. It happened with Gore already unfortunately.
Quote from: fullaoosa on Jul 10, 2025, 12:33 PMITS OUT GYUS ! ITS OUT!!
Aww shit I've been awake for 10mins and it's already leaked.. oh brother.
That listening sounds like Indian music
Yeah, SNW was like that for me - especially after hearing a few of the earlier demos, the Team Sleep album, what I liked about the previous couple of albums etc. So much unrealized potential where it felt like they could have made something not just weird and slightly proggier but where Chino was going to be playing around with American mythology [titles of the leaked demos, the Poe stuff on the TS album] like he'd done with apocalyse and California Gothic on Deftones. Then the guy's voice sounded shot, and he generally seemed burned out, more on autopilot lyrically. The Cherry Waves and Combat demos have more interesting structures too, more ragged and trippy, before he re-arranged them: Chino just didn't seem to be firing, maybe because of the drugs and the stress.
For me WP and Deftones are still the high-mark, but they've rekindled some of those energies of individual songs and parts of albums since then (end-tracks tend to be particularly good, although Ohms' was just 'ok). Chino's voice has mostly recovered, although maybe lost his very highest 1-2 notes; he can still turn a phrase at times and produce something crystalline or odd.
Even though I've stopped expecting they'll be transcendent like the band I had in my head in those earlier years, you stack the later albums up against most other things in rock post 2010, especially bands that don't specialize in being 'the melodic prog death band' or 'blackgaze', and they're pretty much top of the pile.

To early to be Indian rolled lol.

Wow, I'm truly surprised that "Private Music" is indeed the album title, and that they just put the name up on that screen announcement a few weeks ago in the most generic way posible...
It's like the most anti-climactic thing they've ever done in my opinion...
I personally really like the cover. It's awesome
Where's that guy that came in here calling us all stupid for thinking the album was titled Private Music..
Also I dunno that it's anti-climactic. It's had the fanbase buzzing and guessing for 2 weeks
Milk of the Madonna better be a banger... what a name. lol

I am like sure they were joking now. they could not be serious as the new record label name theory was so much worse than it just being the album title.

Got one final schizo theory for the album cycle. Tokyo was online around 15:00 est yesterday, not too far off the teaser dates we have been getting so far. Maybe that is when we get the single release/announcement.
yea and the earth is flat.

Actually one thing i like about deftones is that they never fully load their live show with only new tracks. Many fans go see a show to hear the classics live for the first time.
Tokyo is online right now

That's what I said. There's a slight texture to the green background. Looks like a pool table to me.

I hope they don't "Ohms" this new album, and refuse to play anything except the single.
Actually one thing i like about deftones is that they never fully load their live show with only new tracks. Many fans go see a show to hear the classics live for the first time.
That's the one thing I don't like. Ohms and Genesis were the only staples of their live show the last few years. I got to hear Ceremony and Error live at DDLD, but they only played those two maybe once or twice after that show.
They played most of Gore live, Pittura and Xenon being the only ones I'm pretty sure they never played.
;D
Ignoring 80% of Ohms live is disappointing.. just my opinion.
Maybe when they tour for Private Music they unload a bunch of Gore songs and only play one or two from PM. lol
NEW TEASER ON INSTAGRAM
MY MIND IS A MOUNTAIN. 3PM PT.

Now I'll listen to this clip for the next 8 hours lol

I'm mostly referring to that soaring guitar or sound that comes in towards the end. Sounds very shoegaze/My Bloody Valentine-esque. But yeah the main heavy riff, not so much.
Sounds like Ohms and Koi with hints of SNW in it. A lot more than that too... Absolutely incredible production quality aswell.

yes dude, I can not fucking wait, I was literally jumping up and down in thr garage on the phone with my mom,
I also already figured out how to play the beginning riff 😭
It sounds even better with headphones!
parts of that snippet remind me of Rats! Rats! Rats!
It's very Urantia. Can't wait to hear it all
Chino is gonna go absolutely crazy on this song, I just know it. Lots of directions he could take for this kind of song
The real question is if that is an intro or outro
Most likely the Intro.. Getting some SNW vibes here.. GOD IT FEELS SO GOOD.
Yea I am happy with how good it sounds. Nick doesn't disappoint.
Quote from: guizz on Jul 10, 2025, 03:23 PMYea I am happy with how good it sounds. Nick doesn't disappoint.
I know Terry Date is GOATED but I think Nick brings out the best in this version of the band.
Preorders underway at target. Expect multiple variants
What are the odds they announce the album themselves today as well?

100%
An official website leaked it, there's not that many option at this point.
My only concern with the teaser is that it reminds me of Urantia, a songs I personally don't love. It will all depends of what Chino does with the riffs.
Holy shit that snippet got me hyped!. Just was able to check on here and saw how much I've missed
Quote from: gavinkfox on Jul 10, 2025, 03:46 PMWhat are the odds they announce the album themselves today as well?
I would think it's very high as the teaser from the Weezer show clearly was about private music. So I would think they have album details tonight. Obviously I'm not certain, but I sure hope so!
I'm pretty sure an announcement and link to a site with bundles and merch and all of that will go live sometime today. Latest would probably be around midnight.
Snippet sounds massive btw. I saw someone on another site say it sounds like marching into war and that's spot on.
Damn that's a great price for a vinyl. Hopefully the exclusive official site edition will be around that price too. It doesn't matter though it's an automatic buy
Yeah I'm waiting to see what the official store options are before I buy the Target clear vinyl.
very hot take, people will probably disagree, but I hope the album is a bit more radio friendly than Ohms. By radio friendly, I really don't mean soft, My Owm Summer for me is radio friendly. I just hope for better hooks with less weird melodies.

This is the first album since their new renaissance from the TikTok/social media crowd has discovered them. Whether there's any "radio friendly" tracks or not, I'm very curious to see the response. I feel like this album is going to do huge numbers, potentially WP era numbers and wide appeal given the amount of new fans they have garnered within the last 5 years.
Can hardly wait, very excited about the single, and just, another new album cycle; new tunes, interviews, gigs..the whole thing

Nick was good at bringing out their more radio friendly side, so you may just get your wish.

I was just telling my wife I really hope this new resurgence in popularity gets them a no.1 album on Billboard.
Gore hit no.2 and Ohms hit no.5
Deftones are great at balancing experimentation with "radio friendly" hooks.
Minerva epitomizes that, and more recently Ohms does too.

I hope so. After 30 years, they deserve it.
I would say the band is still niche in the grand scheme of music, but it's nice to see a new generation getting into them.

They definitely leaked it by accident. Curious how the mods on reddit are not removing these post. I guess if an American company that accidentally leaks it, its fine.
The snippet sounds proggy, which lines up with the "Progressive" tag from the FILTER leak.
So fucking excited!
4 more hours guys...
Are we going to hit 100 before the song drops?
Wanna try 😭
Saw this on Reddit. Says it's new bio notes but idk where from...
Meditating on the beauty and peril of nature, the challenge of cultivating a positive mindset and visions of a journey beyond the physical realm, private music showcases Deftones at their most evolved. At once a psychedelic voyage and a skull-rattling wallop, it's the latest peak in a catalog filled with immersive, emotive triumphs.

Because I've got about 1TB of music that I own and Apple Music allows me to listen to my personal library as well as Apple Music saved library anywhere. I can basically carry around a 2tb library of music I've collected over 25 years around in my pocket. I'm just too invested in the Apple/iTunes ecosystem that it would be dumb for me to use Spotify.

It's pretty neat. I've got music from friend's old band cds from like 2005 that are definitely not on Spotify or Apple Music, yet I can listen to it on my phone, even though the mp3 files are on my hard drive on my MacBook.
Urantia/Swerve city vibes at first, seems like a more "complicated" structure and I'm all for it.
The production is really good too ! Was a bit disapointed by Terry Date on Ohms.
I just hope the snare cracks like it does on Terry's albums.

A downloadable version will be available as soon as the song drop. You could just download that and put it in your apple music playlist. But it should come out on it too, it's a huge market.

Yeah that was a big point for me when I was choosing a streaming service. Sometimes I wish Apple Music was a bit more "social" like Spotify. I'll see Reddit posts about how certain songs aren't available to stream and I'm like "I got em on my phone"

If it's anything like Ohms, they will. They'll probably have a hoodie, cd, vinyl bundle. I got the Ohms hoodie bundle last time, with just the album art printed on the back and so glad I did. Dopest Deftones hoodie I've owned.
I installed a Bluetooth system for my truck and it works like a charm. Phone connects instantly. Spotify comes on and done.

Do you like this forum or Reddit better? Asking because I figured as young as you are, all you know is Reddit lol.
Im afraid they are going to release some diferent vinyl variants,and it will make really hard to choose only one.The green background its growing on me,but that pink/purple(if it's legit)is really dope.

It really was. Is it easier to listen to music today? Sure. But there's too many options, nothing sticks anymore. Everyone's attention span is too short. I check out an album and that's it, on to the next thing. Consume. Repeat. Consume. Repeat. It's why I'm so excited for this new Deftones album, it's been so long since I was genuinely excited for a new album that I can sink my teeth into.

Omg yes I remember now that's what I had to do! the casette to aux plug! ;D ;D ;D ahh the "good ole days"...
When I came here today I saw a ton of new pages and was like "here we go". Just our first snippet on social media but I'm excited to hear the new song. I agree with someone else on here that said it has Urantia vibes. [Edit] LITERALLY 2 more hours lmao
When you come back one day and there's like 50 new pages, that when you know it's Deftones Xmas morning.
What's up everybody! It feels so good to be back. How exciting exciting another Deftones album release!
Excited to chat with all of my old friends and a lot of new people as well!
Teaser sounds cool! Hoping for some more experimental guitar work this time.
Also hearing the album closer on Ohms really ruined the album experience for me. There's just something about hearing an album closer for the first time. Doesn't need To be a single. Looks like there gonna do it right this time!

I too was born in the 1900s lol
So old we had to listen to Deftones on a cassette tape or CD. If you were lucky you had one of those nice Walkman's with the anti-skip protection
With a big binder of CDs to flip through. Younger gen has no idea how easy they have it when it comes to music nowadays. Get off my lawn.
Im 14, im starting to get vinyls, ima start getting CD's. Im also gonna pre-order the new deftones album later today, I got like $180, 20 in cash. But anyways lol, I hope they have a special version I can pre-order
Do you like this forum or Reddit better? Asking because I figured as young as you are, all you know is Reddit lol.
I like this better, because I actually get along with you guys rather then the 800 pound bozos who fight over everything on reddit. You guys are chill asf

What do you mean? I love reddit, are you calling be a 800 pound bozo? Wanna fight?
I'm kidding btw.
I like Reddit too but to be real, I get tired of the "what kind of pants is Chino wearing in this pic?" posts. Like I get it, Chino is cool as fuck. We all used to admire the guy at one point, still do. I used to try and dress like him when I was in high school. I get it but good god the amount of nonsensical posts in the subreddit is endless.

you answer your own question, tons of new fans are barely 13, you have a good example DawnOfWar. It's a good thing for deftones, but it brings a lot of cringe with it.
Yeah, this is the "cool kids table" of Deftones fandom. Always has been.
The reason fills the last few pages. Most of us anxiously awaited the new release on CD at the Best Buy lol.
Fans of the band, not the billshit...
Maybe in another 20 years our young friend will still be on here talking about the good old days when private music released lol

Reddit is fine, but this is where I come for my breaking Deftones news and information.
Frank was the best part of Ohms. Really stepped his game up with those synths. Would love to hear an in depth talk of how his process works within the band.
I woulda lost my shit if the Deftones IG page posted a story just saying "2 more hours" - Tokyo

Im playing cod zombies with my dad while waiting, my dad says deftones gay but he doesn't know real music 😭
Logging in for the occasion. I'm so curious about the new single. Will Chino scream? How will Fred fit in? It's the opener so I feel it'll really set the tone of the album.
Regardless, there's nothing quite like the excitement of an upcoming Deftones single/album release. Love it.

Feel u, but I'm 100% sure we won't be disappointed. Let's gooooo.
Just temper expectations. I usually do, but I think this album is going to be really special. Ohms was such a weird album release with Covid and the Sergio shit going down. They seem revitalized again. Must be feeling youthful again with all the young fans and playing bigger stages.
Admit I'm
Kinda enjoying the "newer blood" in here. A shot of Adrenaline.
They've never let me down. Even if I don't love it in first listen, it always grows on me.
The first post pandemic album, I feel like this album is going to be special.

Every possibility. It's Deftones...it often takes three listens to properly sink in. Most of my favourite Deftones stuff did.
And if it's merely ok, there are ten others coming in six weeks. It's no big deal.

Probably about 6-7 tracks on Ohms I like more than Genesis, the lead-off single last time. This sounds 'radio'/'stream'-friendly but with a slight Deftones twist, slightly angular; I'm sure there are going to be 'bigger' but also more experimental songs on the album, whichever you prefer
Deftones cosplaying as Deftones AKA trying to sound like Fleshwater, which is ironic as hell because Deftones took THEM out on their latest tour

Oh man if it's Zane Lowe I know he's glazing Chino lol
It is, but the dude LOVES Deftones. It's pretty rad so far.
I want that windbreaker but I need that numbered one too 😭💔

Thanks - weird as they do say white vinyl but only the standard clear is available at their store.

you are trying too hard.
Banger. I feel like Steftone is bringing back that old school tone back on this one.
Those chugs on the second verse are sending me.
I'm going to be way off but after first listen I'm hearing Urantia with some swerve city and rosemary in the verses?
Quote from: nicklav on Jul 10, 2025, 10:25 PMHour long interview out on Apple Music
This interview is fantastic so far. I was hoping they'd do one with Zane. Perfect cap to dropping the new single.
Yeah, it's really great to hear from them like this.
Urban outfitters has a fig variant
https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/shop/deftones-private-music-uo-exclusive-lp?color=066&size=ONE+SIZE&type=REGULAR&quantity=1
Okay...ummm. First blush...
I'm not disappointed I'm pretty fuckin pleased. 100% Tones.
Overwhelming disappointment when the track ended. I need more!
I wish they'd done the windbreaker separate so you can choose the variant
The guitars are crunchy and Chino sounds amazing

Yeah, that music is like Urantia/Swerve, the vocals reminscent of Genesis into the part with a Rosemary vibe. But very big and very immediate feeling. Triumphant. Loving this!
Good intro, short but I think it will be better within the whole album.
Huge sound,really strong screams, nice melody from Chino as usual.
Weird snare from Abe but I'm digging it.
There is two guitar I think ?

Oh man. Such a teenage thing to go through. Ask yourself a few questions. How much does this mean to you? Can you afford it? If you needed money for something else in the future, would you regret this purchase?
You will find your answers there brother :) Also, I promise your parents only say that because they genuinely care about you. Your Dad was playing zombies with you. Your Mom wants you to be wise with money. It's all out of love. A lot of people never had parents that cared. If you take away anything from this post.....just know they love you.
It's beautiful guys. I feel like Steph was spot on with saying it's like a continuation of Ohms and Koi, I hear so much Koi in it. I've just had it on repeat, soaking it all in. Truly sounds like pure fucking Deftones.
We finally did it boys, now we wait. 42 days.. 2 more hours...
I'm pleased to say I pre-ordered the iridescent gold and the green snake hoodie 8)

I know they love me, but i earned this money, deftones means alot to me, [my mom is not wise with money, she spent 200 dollars on almonds once]
Im js gonna get the iridescent gold one, I really really want that jacket but im gonna get yelled at again so.
Now while we wait, I wanna switch up one of the questions.. Instead of asking what do you think certain tracks will sound like- What's your favorite track name (literally just based off the title)?
I think it'd be cool to revisit once the album drops and see what our "favorites" sound like ;D
I think cut hands is my "favorite" track so far Lol
ATMOSPHERIC, LOUD AND ETHEREAL! CAN'T WAIT FOR MY PREORDER!

Kids, c'mon it's ok to have differing opinions. We don't all have to gush over the first single.
Every album I hate at first, because it's a shock of what I expected to hear, like S/T; I was so disappointed by that album in the beginning but it's now my personal favorite album of theirs. Not saying MMIM will grow on anyone but I enjoyed it and can't wait to hear the rest of the album. If I heard Ohms the first time and hated it (in reality I love the song and video) then it would be so sad cause I can't live without Spell of Mathematics.

Yeah, Metal Dream for me as well. I mean, it's got metal in the title. The only complaint I have about the first single is that it could be longer. But that's my only complaint.

Ok so Metal Dreams and I Cant Stop Thinking About You are apparently bangers. So glad they talked about the album title, artwork, naming process, and all of that. Cool that Frank gets the music early so he can properly create art for the album that fits the aesthetic so well. Fantastic interview. We don't get enough of these..

According to the Zane Lowe interview he's sober now. Might have made a difference.
Loved the intro but for me I didn't go anywhere... felt like a missed opportunity because those initial guitars and the beat are so cool...

If I had any critiques, I felt the song ends abruptly. Wish it went a few more measures, but it's probably because it leads directly into the next track.

but i see where you are coming from, just let it sip in.

The mindscape i get from the music is a recently abandoned club, its empty, nobody at all,
Or a futuristic vibe, like a marble walls on the side, and a gray wall with a cloudy white glass with a waterfall ish thing running down the glass and the marble walls
I'm surprised they didn't drop the music video. Maybe tomorrow? The teaser images definitely looked like it's from a music video, but maybe not.
personally i felt like the single was really great,
though i also feel like it lacked something like there was something missing, otherwise it's a strong start to the album and i'm hyped for the rest

It's still great fucking music, basically Deftones never disappoints because they really approach it as art, just thinking about the progressive deterioration of bands like Korn or Limp Bizkit, this band is on another league.
Basically I feel like Chino always has a deep connection with what he is doing, never for the cash grab, and for that I'll always love them, even if sometimes I don't connect with some of their songs.
Every single one of their fucking albums has a fresh approach. Just think about Gore. This band will be remembered as one of the true ones.

Again, 100% Tones. Nice push and pull, militant upfront leading into a solid groove.
Only gripe is it's less than 3 minutes. I feel like more!!! Lol
They really do be edging us this album cycle

the images are def from a music video,, it aligns with the rumored music video in the making before the europe tour had begun. i'm also surprised they didn't published a music video but i don't really know if it's going to come out tomorrow or sometime in the next week(s)
Really good interview. Was funny watching Steph be like "what song is that?" Glad to hear he's getting his health under control. Zane really nailed it when he said the Nick R albums have a nighttime/neon sound to them. Can't wait to hear the rest.

It's about the experience, not the length ;) If you love the band, then there's no reason to regret it! I'm sure you'll love it and be happy you got it, plus it's an exclusive piece of merch paid for by your own money, I think that's cool in of itself :)

Diamond Eyes is shorter, but it doesn't feel any more or less in terms of time compared to the rest of their discography. Just an experience. It will be worth :)

to be honest I always felt Diamond Eyes could have had one more song close to the end.

We will look back at this record as the true flop in their discography, IF they continue making music at all.

Jeez dude, appreciate constructive criticism but damn...
Don't ban him.. not yet. He's kinda entertaining. Ban him after we've had our fill.
Don't wanna hate on anyone here. Deftones binds us all and I do enjoy reading everyone's take. Even if it doesn't mirror my own.
That said I can definitely tell who the Gen X fans are vs others lol
Yep, keep reacting to signal exposure without defense. I'm not offering critique, I'm collapsing projection loops. I'm also not venting opinion, I'm stabilizing a structural recognition BEFORE it's digestible. You don't know why my presence is disruptive, so you label it as wrong, but your reactions are confirmation. I'm revealing the structure you can't hold, and now you're flinching.
"Mute him" - field can't metabolize signal
"He's trolling" - defense against discomfort
"You're entertaining" - trying to reduce axis to spectacle
"Cope / Seethe" - unconscious admission of destabilization

Want to bet how long I've been a fan? Bet you can't.
I'm fine with opinions but when they are at this point in their career, larger then ever, to use terms like "flop" and saying "IF they ever make music again" is just someone who needs to go touch grass and look inward at their own accomplishments.

Doesn't matter. We've all been fans since before you were in your momma's womb.
You can mirror whatever you want. Flop just seems like something you're projecting.

We've gone through 9 pages talking about a single. Imagine how many we'll go through when the album drops.

That said I can definitely tell who the Gen X fans are vs others lol
Want to bet how long I've been a fan? Bet you can't.
Doesn't matter. We've all been fans since before you were in your momma's womb.

Yes, accuse me of what you're unconsciously doing. I named the structure - you felt exposed - now you're claiming I'm the one displacing. Naming a collapse isn't bitterness, it's pattern recognition.

No one gives a fuck what you think about the record. Fact is, every record has a hater like you and they always disappear after a little while and the rest of us enjoy an album by our favorite band.

"the single didn't really do it for me, just doesn't have the feeling I'm looking for, oh well. Glad you guys are digging it though."
That's all you had to say dude. Instead you come off as just wanting to hate on it and being an obnoxious ass about it. If you've been a fan for as long as you're saying you should be way more mature than you come off as. You sound like a moody high schooler that thinks people don't "get" him but in reality is just annoying, not deep.

Now you're arguing with yourself in a public forum. When you say "what internal argument?"—that IS the internal argument, externalized. I surfaced incoherence and you're just reacting to the mirror.

I found it pretty hilarious that Steph didn't know anything about the album. Zane Lowe heard it before he did. On the other hand, it sounds like Steph is Chino's biggest fan. He had a lot of nice things to say about him, particularly his work on the new album.
Just ignore him. He'll keep yappin trying to derail and rain on our parade.. but bitch, we got umbrellas.
Initial thoughts on the song: It's pretty good. Reminds me of Swerve on steroids a bit. It's too short for my taste, but happy with it overall.
I wish the song lengths were a little longer (I really want the band to continue exploring the vibes of KNY), but excited nonetheless to hear the rest!
Wow! Listened to the single on my break at work today; what a treat.. It definitely reminds me of a mix of swerve city, Rosemary, and Genesis. I rate it a 7/10. I think it'll grow on me the more I listen to it. Chinos vocals are definitely the best part of it. For some reason I'm predicting the rest of the album will have a blade runner feel to it based off the titles and what I've heard from today.

Yep! Love the vocals/lyrics too. It's only up from here. I really think the rest of the album will be fire
Enjoy the ego deaths, everyone. Maybe I was the real Deftones single we unveiled along the way...
I've only listened to it on my surround sound, but it does sound really good in headphones. Abe's drumming is awesome. He's got this really cool syncopated beat with the high hat and kick going during the verses, snare sounds LOUD too. The mix is pretty stellar, Chino's vocals are a little lower than I'd like but it works with the overall sound they're going for. His vocals have always been used like another instrument anyways
I like it. Verses especially. Makes me anxious for the rest of the album. Still need to listen in my headphones!
I'm enjoying the chorus way too much! The way he sings "negative space in cycles" sounds so raw and desperate. I love it.

Its deadass like a dream
Who's the fucking mod? Literally this place was cool for months until obviously with the single a wave of new people came in, including assholes like this creep.
If he's not banned, then this forum is ruined and now is when the coolest stretch begins towards album release.

And at 44 years old and a Deftones career Long fan I will not be asking anybody for any leaks or anything like that. I will wait till my wife's birthday to hear the album together with her. The day it comes out. There you go pancakes. Penicks w syrup!? you're so cool

Definitely! Funny enough, that's literally what I did when I first listened to it. It's definitely a great taste of what's yet to come. I agree with others who said it's a little short, but I think- for me personally- that moreso stems from the impatience Lmao
I think the length is fitting- They get us all riled up, we think we're ready and have an idea for what's to come, but once it's here- I bet we're gonna be blown away. Remember #Futureheavy yall ;D Thanks for always sharing great info AND great input. Here's for what's to come!

Haha same here! Definitely give it a run with your headphones, you won't regret it ;)
Did either of yall watch the interview with Zane yet? It's really a great watch, I feel like it's been a long time since we've gotten to see them altogether in one interview and contributing as much as they did. I definitely feel like I got a great "dose" of Deftones after silence for so long. I feel refreshed 8)
Loved the interview. It was a nice complementary piece to go along with the single. Hope they do another one with Zane post album launch. Felt like Zane really wanted to talk about the album more but just couldn't for obvious reasons
I watched the whole Zane interview before listening to the song. The feeling of nostalgia hit me hard. I'm 43, been listening to them since I was 16, maybe?
THEN I heard the new tune, and man... it never ceases to amaze me how powerful listening to a song of your favorite band for the 1st time can be. What a fucking banger!!!!!!!!!!
Dig it. Sounds kinda Koi Nohms Yokan to me but like others have said, evolved.
It was definitely one of the better interviews they've done. Zane tends to gush quite a bit but you can tell he's genuinely a fan of the bands he interviews.

right,, this sounds very much like a mix of swerve city and genesis and i'm really into that sound! been listening to the single non-stop since it came out a couple of hours ago
I love the "Now We Sail, The Storm implodes" verse/bridge part. My favorite moments are generally the ones where the sonic space opens up and the song starts to float.

Interesting. One of my gripes with it is the snare is a bit too buried and soft (along with chino's vocals) in the mix. Snare cracks a little more with good headphones though. Guitars sound massive as usual.

Abe's drumming is awesome. He's got this really cool syncopated beat with the high hat and kick going during the verses, snare sounds LOUD too.

Agree on the snare, I was expecting it to be honest as KNY and Diamond Eyes are the same for me. Probably ok for others but I like a loud snare :D
The snare is loud; the guitars are louder. Everyone is swarming all over that mix.
Quote from: thatdeftkid on Jul 11, 2025, 01:27 AMChino even said "there's a lot of decisions that we made while making music that sometimes were hard decisions to make cuz it went against the grain but it's not gonna be a bad record, it's gonna be a good record."
He was reflecting on their attitude their whole career, not pinpointing this particular album.
I have a feeling this album, while sonically similar to Ohms and Koi, might mirror Diamond Eyes in terms of its role. Like how the title track of DE was a strong but less polarizing lead single, and the album lengths being similar. PM could be the setup for something "bigger" much like DE was to KNY. So instead of a trilogy as Abe mentioned in the interview it might turn out to be 2 distinct pairs. Just my weird reaching thoughts—MMIAM was fucking amazing btw :)
They just announced a 2026 UK tour.
I love these lyrics for an opener
"Now we sail
The storm implodes
Exploring your fate
Now we sail, starting now"
It's feels like a mission statement to the listener, like get ready we're about to take you on this ride. It probably wasn't sequenced for that reason but it works
the song sounds huge, the production is so good, really like it. If that is a taster for what the rest of the album is like, then roll on 22nd August!
just woke up to a tour announcement ....wtf is going on :) what a crazy 24 hours
That bridge is so ethereal it hurts
Am I the only one who thinks this song is a completely new Deftones vibe?
Everyone's comparing it to old songs and albums, but I only hear a slight similarity to Swerve City, but otherwise it's a completely different sound from them and Chino too, even Ohms sounds more "Deftones" than this song and album aesthetic, the titles and all... AND I COMPLETELY LOVE IT!!

I completely agree with you. To me it sounds different even how the vocals and the timing of the vocals are different. Freaking love this band so much.

Exacly!! And to me, I even hear a bit of "Crosses" inspiration in the creativity of Chino's voice in this song, mixed with those raw screams in the middle with Deftones' instrumental it is the perfect combination!
So hyped to hear the next single!!
Btw, any ideas when the 2nd single is coming out?! My bet is August 1st, it´s a friday and it´s in the middle of the album release and 1st single. Probably with a videoclip.
Kinda random that they didn´t release this song with a videoclip, I was really expecting the videoclip with this one
After a few listens:
Great track, great opener-- they called it "bombastic" in the Zane interview and I 100% agree.
In the context of the whole album, I think it will shine even more. The brevity of the track will likely feed perfectly into Locked Club.
I became a fan ~2016, so I had the fortune of hearing most of their records whole. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think a track like Diamond Eyes maybe felt the same as MMIAM, as a single; but in context of Royal and CMND/CTRL, the shorter length is perfect for that record's momentum.
Everyone sounds great, but Chino crushes it here. His voice sounds more youthful than on Ohms.
the Zane Lowe interview was fantastic, one of the best for a long, long time. So happy they are still going and have overcome everything that has happened to them as humans over the years, in their aging years they are as big as ever. amazing

Yeah. They carried themselves so well with very difficult and personal topics. The whole interview wasn't like that, there were of course parts when they talked about the album, but some parts got very deep. Loved every bit of what they had to say about how they've been in recent years.
One of my favorite parts of the interview was Chino explaining where the title for Private Music came from, especially after all of the berserk fan speculation. Is it a reference to an obscure 80's German record label? Or is it a reference to Eros? IS IT Eros?
Nope, it's the name of the folder he was keeping the album in on his computer. He'd probably laugh his ass off at us.
The more I look at the album cover, the more I like it. Hopefully the booklet gonna be great as well!
I think this single leaves me wanting more than any other single of their's in recent memory. Ohms was awesome but I was cool, I can wait.. Prayers/Triangles was also nice. Leathers, Rocket Skates, HITE, were also fairly satiating. I think maybe Minerva was the only other single that left me this curious about the album direction and just wanting to hear more so badly.
do you guys think there will be a second or third single coming in the next weeks?
Genesis was the 2nd single off Ohms and came out a week before the album.
I imagine they'll do a similar thing this time.
hopefully, i really can't wait for the rest to come out
I hope a second single is just a week before the 22nd and not early August. I can go a week without listening, but I'll struggle with anything more than that. I really want to hear the rest of the album in one shot.

Same. I doubt I'll be able to hold strong if they release another single but I'd really like to at least TRY and go into this one knowing as little as possible. Long gone are the days of hearing Rapture or Beware via blurry cellphone footage long before the album releases.

I agree. It's unmistakably deftones. But like every single album of theirs, it has a vibe. And in this case a massive vibe. I think Chino nailed it when he used the term "reinvigorated". The song also feels very triumphant.
The one thing that really makes me wonder though is the artwork. Their art always reflects the vibe of the music very well. I have no idea what to expect from the rest of this album if the artwork is supposed to be an indication of what it sounds like. Chino mentioned sending the album to Frank very early so he could marinate in the songs and come up with art that magnifies and solidifies the record as a collective.
Just some random thoughts sorry for the wall of text
The album art has grown on me a lot. Seeing it next to their other albums, it fits right in. As an artist and graphic designer myself, I've made art for one of my friend's bands and he would do the same thing. He'd sneak me demos just so I could have an idea of what the vibe was. This is why all of their album covers and overall art direction always fits so well with the music. The snake really has me curious, as you said Rapture. Snakes are symbolic for so many different reasons. Really interested to see how the music lines up with it.

I feel you both so hard Lol I've already been trying to remind myself if they do release another one in the next coming weeks, to try to hold out. If a 2nd is released and I listen, that'd mean there's only 9 new songs. 10 new songs sounds better than 9 in my head, the more the merrier I guess Lol
And true that. Isn't it crazy how time flies?

Having not heard the full album, it would surely be "ecdysis" right? It means shedding skin or molting.. It's the only track title that is directly a callback to the album cover.
The more I listen, the more layers and complexity I hear. The band said it in Zane interview, this is the most focused they have been. That's how I would describe this track. Focused. Focused Deftones sound.
I do find it ironic that they say its their more focused work when it took them forever to finish.
Quote from: buflen on Jul 11, 2025, 06:31 PMI do find it ironic that they say its their more focused work when it took them forever to finish.
They were saying how when they got together to write the songs, they were more focused than they've been. The reason it took so long is because they can only get together for a week at a time across many months to work on music. So albums just take longer to make but doesn't mean they aren't "focused". They're in their 50s now with other responsibilities like families. They can't just bang out quality music in a couple weeks like they did in their 20s, when they were partying all night, drinking, and experimenting with drugs.

I think the overall theme lyrically for the album might be about "shedding." Snake cover and ecdysis, Chino as well as the others sounded more introspective. As we all tend to get as we get older.
I like how the cassette sold out already 8) well it's still on indie shops but for deftones.com

I can't honestly find a good reason to have an album on cassette in 2025 beside collecting.

that's a great point that makes perfect sense especially in context of the interview. I think I'm just so caught off guard by the immediacy of the dangerous but beautiful white snake. But with Deftones it's never, at least usually, that surface level. Maybe self-titled album cover this little too on the nose. Beauty and death or whatever adjectives you want to use. But yes I like and believe I agree with your thoughts

Might get one just to have it.
Wish I could post a pic here but I got an email from Warner music with the subject "my mind is a mountain" and when I opened it, the top of the email says "watch" so I'm thinking woah the video was released and the screen shot immediately below "watch" was a shot of The Goo Goo Dolls so I was like "wtf they got the goo goo dolls in the video?"
But it was just a link to their own video.
It just looked so misleading when the subject of the email was the song title and then I see the fucking Goo Goo Dolls lmao
I did the same thing lol
Really hope Private Music debuts at #1 on Billboard. Deftones never had a record do that. Just for reference.
Gore (2016): Debuted at No. 2
Self-titled (2003): peaked at 2
Ohms (2020): Debuted at No. 5

Koi No Yokan (2012): Debuted at No. 11.
Diamond Eyes (2010): Debuted at No. 6.
Around the Fur (1997): Peaked at No. 29
Adrenaline (1995): Peaked at No. 23
I love MMIAM, but i think they need to release a single that is a lot more catchy if they want the big numbers. But maybe the tiktok resurgence will be enough
I don't think they really give a fuck tbh.. If they did, I'm sure this song would not have been the single if that was their main goal. They would just write a song that sounds like Change and let that be the first single. This track feels like a proclamation that we're back doing what we do best.
But I'm with you, as a fan it would be nice to see them get a #1 chart. They just sold out their first legit stadium tour, so maybe this is the time for a #1 album.

i dont know if this is just me but i feel like this "tiktok resurgence" didn't really do much for the band overall. I mean sure they brought more fans but a lot of them were mostly attracted by the popular songs especially cherry waves and my own summer. i personally think it gave them publicity but it feels sort of superficial in a sense. not sure if i'm just crazy for thinking that.

I dunno about that. After going to one of the recent shows in March, I was shocked to see so many younger fans. There were kids with their parents, both wearing Deftones shirts. Kids of all ages from 13 to 18 plus the older fans. They've cultivated a very diverse fanbase, and their music is just timeless and has connected with a new generation. I thought it was superficial too until I went to a show and saw first hand just how many kids genuinely love this band. I'm sure some of it is superficial but I think the majority of it is genuine.

My favorite part of the song is Abe's drumming. That constant kick with the half time high hats is such a vibe. Then he switches it up during the chorus.
That marching beat...
I'm so excited to hear departing the body. I really hope it's an ethereal closer like what happened to you?
Definitely excited that Nick is producing the record this time. And I never thought I would say that. I feel like Chinos vocals were a little bit overproduced on ohms. Especially on the verses on parts of the record. Some of it was rad too.
I hope he's loud enough in the mix. He seems a little bit low in the mix on the new track. But I still think it fits from what they are trying to do. The new song has not quite grabbed me yet. But I'm sure it will coming up.
This place went really quiet
Not a lot more to discuss honestly. Now we wait again.
Now we discuss their 11th album, jkjk
Two more hours
Hey all! I've been coming back to this forum for nearly two weeks since Deftones started teasing Private Music. This is my first album rollout so I'm super excited. I'm utterly stoked for August 22nd! It couldn't come soon enough. I've been a fan since about 2021-22 or so. Never knew there was a dedicated forum until recently so I decided to make an account. I like the new song a lot and may post up my review on here depending on how long of a post/review I'm allowed to make. (Also, I'm not sure how to add those cool song flairs and lyric footnotes I've been seeing. Any tips would be useful).

Hahaha exactly
We'll let's play a small game...
If the entire album sounded more or less like My Mind is a Mountain, where would you rank it in their discography?

Quote from: E-Money on Jul 12, 2025, 11:59 PMI'm so excited to hear departing the body. I really hope it's an ethereal closer like what happened to you?
Definitely excited that Nick is producing the record this time. And I never thought I would say that. I feel like Chinos vocals were a little bit overproduced on ohms. Especially on the verses on parts of the record. Some of it was rad too.
I hope he's loud enough in the mix. He seems a little bit low in the mix on the new track. But I still think it fits from what they are trying to do. The new song has not quite grabbed me yet. But I'm sure it will coming up.
What happened to You is still my favorite Deftones closer and I woul love another atmosphere track like that

I would be happy with a head nodding heavy set of bangers to vibe to. Deftones has NEVER let me down and I'll love anything they give us but I would be a bit upset about the lack of experimentation or song diversity.

I guess top 3, the sound is amazing I love how reverb it is with being overbearing, same with the guitar its a very heavy and spacey sound,
Like idc if u guys will say "ur just saying that because its new" its true its really good quality, and rhis is my type of music
I'm kind of at the point where I'd be totally fine if they gave us more of what they do best. They're 10 albums into their career. I don't necessarily need them to reinvent the wheel. They seem to be experimenting with the overall production sound and feel more so than the song writing side of things this time.
The single sounds like they handed Nick the album "Inlet" by Hum and were like, "We want it to sound like this." And I mean that as a huge compliment. Inlet is one of the best sounding records of recent memory. I love that huge wall of sound with a touch of shoegaze element to it.
I'd be totally fine if the whole record sounds like that. I'm pretty open to whatever they throw at us, but I feel like this album might just be Deftones doubling down on their sound. But who knows, they always keep us guessing.

I don't know if they can top the sound of Self-Titled for me. I just fucking love that record, it's my personal favorite. Something about the whole production on that album I just love. The guitars sound warm and heavy, the drums are punchy, it just has a whole vibe that I love. But if the new record sounds like MMIAM, then I dunno it might be top 5.

Self titled is so fucking good dude, I have the ruby red vinyl, but I got a cheap vinyl player so it sounds ass, but atleast I got the vinyl
Anyways, the guitar on that album is so like, heavy and just raw, and the opening to hexagram that dirty clean tone is so MWAH, CHEF KISS, is like idk how to explain it but its like a pinch, and like a click [makes no sense but to me it does kinda]

There's no deftones album that has just one unique sound so I feel it's a moot point.

ST is my daughter's fav album ever. She is almost 18. She said she doesn't think anything will ever top it. Just like when I first heard ATF in 98 I knew "This is the best music I have ever heard and pretty sure this will be my GOAT album forever." Well, it still is.
Feiticiera might be my favorite opening track of all time, but Hexagram is probably their *best* opener. SO Deftones, yet so unique. Can not be replicated. It's a sound of it;s own. A "one of one" if you will. I totally get what you mean Dawnofwar

I actually came here to say pretty much the exact same thing.
The more I listen the more it sounds like someone asked Hum to write/produce/perform a Deftones song.
It sounds massive.
Also, I keep hearing similarities between this and Genesis. Also the marching beat sounds like Urania but a bunch of people already said that.

I can't say totally yet until I hear the album, but two things have me very excited:
1. Stephen's guitar tone on this song is probably my favorite it's been in awhile. MMIAM has been getting a lot of comparisons to Hum, and for good reason. Their older stuff always had that Hum influence, but around Diamond Eyes, his Meshuggah influence kind of won over. Meshuggah's cool, but I personally missed that more staticky, dissonant, almost fuzzy sound.
2. Chino's screams on MMIAM don't have that tinny filter effect that the screams on Gore and Ohms had. He's probably never going to sound like ATF or even DE-era screaming again, but it sounds much improved over the last two albums IMO.
I want more walls of sound like Minerva and Hexagram.
What happened with MMIAM video,could be the screenshots used on Instagram are from the next single?
Quote from: xoandef on Jul 13, 2025, 07:37 PMWhat happened with MMIAM video,could be the screenshots used on Instagram are from the next single?
I was thinking the same. Like maybe MMIAM is just a teaser/album announcement single, and the next single will maybe be something more "radio friendly" for lack of a better phrase; along with a music video? They also might be waiting to release the music video in a couple weeks to gain more momentum on the hype without having to release a second single? Just space out the music video release a bit to coincide with the album release date.
I kinda hope we don't get another single, I'm fine with what they gave us and I can wait til the album comes out.

Yes,could be that.To fill more the lack until the next single and the album release.
I don't think the video was for another song as the director and director of photography leaked and it was for MMIAM but I really don't know why it has not released. its very weird.

Either they are putting the finishing touches on the video and it'll drop soon or they decided they didn't like it at the last minute and scrapped it.
Maybe they release the video on Tuesday?
It is strange they didn't immediately drop it with a video.

Couldnt agree more. Especially the guitar tone part. Im also glad Chino didnt tried to scream his head off too much. I love the more agressive stuff but the dude is in his mid 50's, theres no way he can keep screaming like he used to. Its fine to just do it in small dosis if or when the music asks him to.
At least in MMIAM, it was the perfect spot for everything. Idk if Stef is using a 6 or 7 string guitar on the song, but Im glad its not a fucking 8, 9 or whatever the fuck. This is their sound I fell in love with. Its perfect, not too much chugging.
Thank God.

i don't think they scrapped it because it would just be a huge waste of money and i'm not sure the label would've appreciated the
lost money. the most logical reason would be that it's still in the making and needs a few touches or theyre waiting to release it some time soon, maybe at the same time as the second single if there's one

Weird situation indeed...
Has EVERY Deftones album leaked before release?
Not sure about Adrenaline or ATF because those were in the early days of the net, but White Pony on, I believe so. I remember SNW leaking piecemeal - if I'm not mistaken, some of the Ezrin demos leaked before the album did. Xerces instrumental, definitely - I had that before I ever heard vocals on it. I also remember Kimdracula and Riviere leaking together.

Holy shit... it's gotta suck to have a freakin demo leak
Did Diamond Eyes and Koi No Yokan leak? I think they were both streamed early online — I remember my first listen of Diamond Eyes being an early stream on the NME website — but I can't recall if they leaked first.

Koi No Yokan leaked a little over a week before release.
Gore leaked because someone on here got the vinyl a week early, and the Ohms songs that leaked were from direct recordings of Chino's Mixlr broadcasts. Radiant City, This Link is Dead and the full versions of Error and Headless didn't appear until the day before release when they went live in New Zealand.

Stephen 100% plays an 8 string guitar on this song.
He just doesn't use the lower notes. The song can be played on a 7 string or 6 string in B Standard, technically.
I would argue that he is chugging a lot on this track. Only during the bridge he properly strums his chords

Im not a guitar expert but I believe you. If thats the case and hes playing 8 strings, the sound is really close to what I preffer, anyway. Not that their 8 string songs suck, I just find that old atf-koi type guitar tone better.

Koi No Yokan leaked a little over a week before release.
Which in the grand scheme of thing, is barely a leak. As soon as the albums are in the wild (aka in store) the album usually leak very very soon after.
I might be out of the loop because I don't really follow leaks that much these days.. but from what I can tell, within the last 4-5 years it feels like albums in general aren't leaking that far in advance anymore. In most cases, only two or three days ahead of release.

Diamond Eyes leaked in March and released in may.
DE leaked so early that it forced them to push their release date up.

He 100% uses the 8 string, and he 100% uses the lower strings. I'm recording it on my computer now on my 8string tuned to Drop E and the Drop E string is used.

That's weird. The link I shared was a 16 second teaser of Chino, cut to black then it said "Deftones my mind is a mountain official video 7.15.2025". They've taken the link offline now so I'm guessing they gotta fix something and repost it.

i am watching it right now...wut?
What? It was just a 16 second teaser for me. You saw the whole video? That's weird..
I watched a lot more than 16 seconds, then they shut it down.
That's weird. The link I shared was a 16 second teaser of Chino, cut to black then it said "Deftones my mind is a mountain official video 7.15.2025". They've taken the link offline now so I'm guessing they gotta fix something and repost it.
I saw the teaser, but i didn't close the browser, then the full song started and they shut it down at the end of the first verse.
and now its back. I guess they fixed it.

That's cool dude! Does he play the open low E?

Open I don't think so, I made a short video of the main riffs from what I think he's playing. Don't mind the poor playing, I know.

I'm really excited about this new stage/era, the interview with Zane Lowe helped me understand a lot of what has happened with the band during this time and you can tell they are very motivated for the next steps.

Diamond Eyes leaked in March and released in may.
Lol holy fuck, that sucks

Its fine to just do it in small dosis if or when the music asks him to.
At least in MMIAM, it was the perfect spot for everything. Idk if Stef is using a 6 or 7 string guitar on the song, but Im glad its not a fucking 8, 9 or whatever the fuck. This is their sound I fell in love with. Its perfect, not too much chugging.
Thank God.
Stephen 100% plays an 8 string guitar on this song.
He just doesn't use the lower notes. The song can be played on a 7 string or 6 string in B Standard, technically.
I would argue that he is chugging a lot on this track. Only during the bridge he properly strums his chords

Sucked for them but I loved getting to hear the demos.
They have progressively gotten better about their album leaks since then. I think the time frame now is like a week to a few days before the actual release date.

Oh nahhh. just doing a little recording to see how close it is to the real thing when I see stef play it. Some people say its in F# standard, which is what I thought at first, some say it's in Drop C.. Stef said the album is in Drop E...
So, I just recorded myself playing it in Drop E and it sounds about as good as I can figure out by ear..

What did you think about My Mind is a Mountain?
I've never been permanently in Chile, only twice to see Deftones, once in 2012 and again in 2015 (that festival with Gojira, SOAD and FNM was amazing), I've always worked with Klauthio and Mono from Deftones.cl from a distance, but the page is about to be down for a decade haha.
I really loved the song. I really like the dynamics and the guitars so present, the drums so marked is a beast. I think it's a new air for the band, Chino's timming for the lyrics is incredible (the verse is IMMENSE), Fred's contribution is noticeable from moment 1.
I really have a lot of hype about all of this.
The music video comes out today and today is Chi's birthday, so maybe it actually has something to do with him, as people said on reddit

This makes a lot of sense. I remember reading and hearing in several interviews (even I think in some album credits) that some members, like Chino and Abe, refer to Chi as "Mountain Man".

Lmao right? Deftones subreddit looks like the Kendrick Lamar subreddit where everything is some cryptic clue teasing or self referencing something. Like, no.. They miss Chi very much, but Chino isn't writing lyrics about him 12 years after he's passed on. At best maybe some lyrics on Diamond Eyes could be interrupted as such, but beyond that anything moving forward is just that - them moving forward.
I think the music video releasing today is definitely an ode to Chi, but not the song or lyrics itself.

In general, I really don't care about internet points. But I do want to point out that I think I was the first person on Reddit to mention the correlation between the song title and the statement that Chino made about Chi being a mountain of a man. I am Swerve City in discord and reddit.
Also, none of this means it's definitely related to him. But it is a nice little coincidence at least :)

Yeah I probably sound like an insensitive prick but I wish interviewers wouldn't even bring up Eros or chi anymore. Shit I'd hate to be asked about a deceased band member who passed 10 years ago or an unfinished album from almost 20 years ago during a new album cycle.

Reminded me of the Genesis video. Nothing crazy but it's fine. The Ohms video was so sick though.
The red scenes were super ominous, ot was super cinematic too
I loved the color choice and the intro with Chino was awesome. Also loved each member got multiple shots doing their thing
Not as cool looking as the Ohms video but still sick. Sometimes simple is fine. Chino looks great here man.

You've seen the Butcher might be their best one tbh. As far as "band playing in a location" videos go, I think Minerva might be their best as well. I just love the way that video is shot, out in the desert, it's such a good music video for how simple it is. Really captures the essence of that song.
Yeah I'd have Minerva as their best.

Yea, I still think Change is their best video. It's just so damn atmospheric and fits the song PERFECTLY. But Butcher is a close 2nd, Minerva third and I have a soft spot for Back To School since it's so damn nostalgic and makes me really think about the fun times in High School 😩

They were forced to get creative with the Ohms and Genesis videos because of Covid. They had to shoot their scenes separately, then composited the footage to make it look like they were playing together. Same for Genesis. I feel like that may have helped them make a more interesting video because they had to fill in the gaps with cool cgi visuals on Ohms. Sometimes being limited in what you can do can spark more creative ideas.

my huge issue with the Change video is the radio edit which almost ruin the song.
Pretty standard performance video, well-shot though. I feel like they could have spiced it up with some landscape shots and glitchy post-effects interspersed with the band shots but whatevs.
A lot of their videos are pretty plain Jane, but I like some of them, many for nostalgia purposes. The Change video always stood out to me for how weird and creepy it is, and Ohms is visually awesome (they should keep working with that director). HITE is definitely the worst one, which is a shame because it's a great song.
The budget for music videos are probably peanuts compared to what they used to be. I guess you can make a lot with nothing if you are very creative, but hiring creative people is probably too expensive anyway.

You lucked out that they listened. That shit is sold out now. Would totally suck if they cancelled it. I've bought expensive things before and had buyer's remorse, but in the long run I'm glad I bought it. You'll feel the same once you get that record in your hands. I went for the jacket and vinyl combo, plus an CD. Also ordered the green vinyl variant from Hot Topic.

You also figured out my cryptic nonsense ;D
My takeaway from MMIAM video is Chino looks great. I Would have loved more imagery that Rizz did for their live video assets they are currently using on tour. But all in all. Solid. Nothing special.

The Diamond Eyes era videos in general are pretty good. Especially Sextape, the video is gorgeous and is a perfect match for that song.

In general, I really don't care about internet points. But I do want to point out that I think I was the first person on Reddit to mention the correlation between the song title and the statement that Chino made about Chi being a mountain of a man. I am Swerve City in discord and reddit.
Also, none of this means it's definitely related to him. But it is a nice little coincidence at least :)
You also figured out my cryptic nonsense ;D
w00t lol! Hey, anything to make the wait more fun is okay with me!
Video was fine, exactly what I expected based on the teaser screenshots. Maybe it's just my hype projecting, but the band seemed *really* in to this one. Maybe that what happens when some of these tracks are 2 1/2 years old and have been "private" for so long. The band really seems to just be enjoying all of this during the tour and album rollout. Glad to see them back!

Exactly this
I wonder if they plan on doing visualizers again for each song, like they did for Ohms. I loved all of those, they were really dope.
37 days until album release...
The North American Tour will start that very Friday.
Are you guys certain there'll be another single?

There was for ohms
If there is another single I think it's 100% certain that it will come out on the Friday before release date, as did Genesis.
So... 30 days til new single.

Probably, but my gut says no. I personally kinda hope we don't get another single. I'd like to go into this album knowing only the first single. I don't have the self control to not listen to a second single if they release one. So selfishly I hope all we get is MMIAM until Aug 22 lol
I 100% agree. I want this to be as fresh as fucking possible man.
I gotta stop listening to this song. Its been on every fucking list I come up with. Even Spotify is putting in everything. Need MMIAM to feel as fresh as possible during first listening through.
Shit is hard.

Shit is hard.
The good news for me is that this type of song I never get sick of, just like BQAD or Minerva, so I don't mind just listening to it as much as I want, I'll still listen to it when the album comes out.
Every release I tell myself I want to wait until I hear the whole album.
I just do not have the willpower.
I was able to wait for genesis. But I didn't wait for the full release. I jumped on the leak as soon as I could.
Wow, so you didn't listen to the Ohms single when it released?

Wait till you hit suffle mode on Spotify or apple music, its like Russian roulette, you never know...
My sisters and brother are waiting until the album drops to actually listen to mmiam, and I don't blame them really
Just to get a fresh taste of the album yk
Not sure how it is for you guys, but Zane interview made me hyped for these tracks:
"I think about you all the time" - working title "Armed" - Chino wrote it over one day, like Change, after swimming in Ocean. Abe comment: "that's a jam" Zane comment:"It's sooo good"
"Infinite source" - working title "I" or "eye" - Zane comment:"fucking love it". First song they wrote for private music
"Metal dream" - working title Eating Metal in Your Dreams - just cause working title is sick

Yeah that's a possibility for sure, however I checked dudes YT account and his attempts to cover stuff, in general, resembles originals. I want to believe ;)
yea he knows people will search for those songs.
I could film myself farting, call it "deftones - Departing the Body", doesn't mean the song will have fart noises.
It would be fitting though.

I do take it with huge pinch of salt, BUT I also remember that Xenon from Gore leaked in similar way, random dude shared YT video with himself playing it on drums. So it's not like it never happened
If for some reason those acoustic videos really are Deftones covers, infinite source absolutely sounds like old school deftones. Holy shit I hope that's real
Hype
To me it just sounds like some random riffs this guy has made up, and named them after songs from the album in an effort to gain views..

the one that has me excited, infinite source, is an awful lot like the riff from Korea. I'm leaning towards your opinion. I don't think some random dude on the internet would have heard private music, and I definitely don't think they'd be letting him post covers. I guess we'll see if they get copyright striked

good catch about Korea riff
We know that some members of the band (and maybe management?) read this forum.
So if the covers are real, then word will spread quickly and we'll see if they're taken down.
Can anyone download them now just to be safe? I think it's 4 covers so far.
If you put an infinite number of monkeys in front of infinite typewriters, one will eventually write all of Shakespeare.
If you make up random drop D riffs on an acoustic guitar, eventually you may have something that sounds like a Deftones song.
Not enough chugging to be legit. Those chords and playing style are all Deftones circa 2000.
Can't believe it's already been a week since the single dropped. I don't know about y'all but it's gotten better for me personally. I was worried it was just the initial excitement overhyping the song, but now that I've sat with it for a week and given it many listens - this song has only got better.
I stopped listening to it because I feel like I've over listened and I dont wanna lose that new song feel

Lmao, that's a good comparison.
MMIAM was not one of my favorites. Singles usually never are. It's really starting to settle in with me though. Fortunately I'm not playing it to death so it should feel nice and context of the entire album. As long as all the tracks are actual tracks and there's no interludes, I think I'd be okay with one more single. If there's an interlude though then I rather just wait for the entire album. Just a bit over a month away!
This is a cool watch. He did a follow up with BQAD since he wasn't too familiar with them.

it always annoy me when people react to BQAD or Change using the music video. It's so annoying that they edited them to make them shorter.

The track lengths are out in the wild. Sharinglungs shared them last week. Very unlikely any of the songs are interludes.
Throw back march
They've been teasing the private music cover and shit since then I think its crazy that we basically guessed it
With the purple snake and the snake tounge logo, I still wonder what that was inside of the deftones logo for the one video.
Theory again, imagine if the day it drops they are gonna release vizualiers and its gonna be a snake hatching out of an egg, and then some trippy shit like Ohms
Idk im just rambling on because I can
Way too quiet it seems, as Deftones do Deftones things.

Or a snake shedding skin (ecdysis),
Apparently in the album inlay they will be using private photos from their phones accumulated over last 3 years. At least this is what Chino mentioned in Zane interview. This would also make a cool vis to a track.
Does anyone know the lyrics to "My mind is a mountain"?
What's Chino talking about?

Most of everything has been said and done for at this point. Only thing that could be done until the album release is another single (very possible) and more interviews. I particularly hope there's other interviews coming. The Zane Lowe one was great and it left me wanting more.

i think (and also hope) that they'll play a few songs from the new record. it's guaranteed that they'll atleast play the single(s) since the tour will start after the release of the new record as a means to promote it
I would guess just the singles, but I would love to be wrong.

Heard a little bit of the instrumental for MMIAM that was supposedly leaked but it could have been AI. Whoever put it out there put a dumb audio tag over it every few seconds but it sounded legit. Can't find it now
We have not seen pictures of the record in stores, as soon as it happens, it's inevitable, unfortunately.
Ohms only leaked officially like a day or two before release right?

My curiousity got me first time around. Infinite Source sounded cool and Deftonesish. But I ain't trying to hear these new ruffs like that. If he heard the album and wants to post them, good for him. I'll pass. 28 fucking days......

I hate having to discuss this, and I said that previously, but the guy obviously use the song names for clicks. The fact the title says (in the style of) means he wrote those riff in the style of deftones, so its unrelated to the songs. You guys can do whatever you want, but I think we should not give him the clicks he wants.

This is why i never gave it a thought. It was obvious
It was the same for Ohms and they released a second single on that.
I wonder if franks synth work on this album will beat ohms... I dont think so because frank ohms era is just a masterpiece
I think he can top it. Out of all the members, I'd say his work is what has expanded more than anything. Each album his presence becomes more and more prominent. His synths on MMIAM are pretty massive in some parts, especially if you listen on a nice pair of headphones.
We are going to get fair share of Frank I believe. He is always active and albums, especially since Koi.
Having said that, my bet is on especially strong delivery from Stef. He looked super happy in Zane video, like in totally different vibe than pre Gore interviews.
deftones - my mind is a mountain [stephen carpenter play-through] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCRKpcKjB5w) let's go!
Dawn of War is going to flip. So cool of Steph to do this for the new songs.
YO I JS WATCHED IT BEFORE I SAW THIS ON SL, ITS REALLY COOL HOW THEY TRANSITIONED INTO LIKE THE RAW AUDIO!!

Yeah I liked that a lot. There are tons of comments on the old videos about how he's "not really playing" because you supposedly can't hear him in the mix. I bet it was to address all that.
Steph has a playthrough of MMIAM on YouTube
This timestamp is cool (https://youtu.be/sCRKpcKjB5w?si=EIcGHneJH0IVRStk&t=138). The bridge sounds so rich without distortion. love it. Gives a Hexagram intro vibe

IMO the reason why Frank's job has been super important is because of Stephen's tendency to only want to low end CHUG CHUG CHUG with a 8+ string guitars since Diamond Eyes. Something need to fill the middle and high frequencies, that is usually done by the guitar.
I liked how it showed Steph out of the mix so you can just hear his playing. Wasn't expecting the video to come out that quickly.
Frank is integral to their sound at this point, when he started in the band his presence was so buried in the music it was really just added atmosphere. But yeah it's nice to have other band members shine in the songs.
Kinda funny, for many an Album cycle the debate was is this a Chino or Steph Record?
Frank has entered the conversation.
I am not sure why but I always felt Gore was a Sergio album. Maybe its how I explained myself why its my least favorite.
Gore is a miss for me, every band has to have a stinker and that for me is theirs. I think they were just burnt out or something, idk. Steph admitted to not initially being into it or motivated to play anything on it. That was definitely a Chino album, and considering what Steph shared recently on Zane Lowe, it sounds like he is still working at raising the bar. Gotta be a lot of pressure to consistently crank out the riffs, especially working with such diverse players.
I'll say this too, that after SNW Steph seemed to just adopt that CHUG style and I'm personally sick of it. It's cool when used to create songs like DE, but the post-Chi stuff just seems to have the chugga chugga be his go-to on his part. Like Chino always delivers his best, you know Abe always brings it, and Frank does his thing. You can see that carry over into this new song. Steph just needs to push himself out of that comfort zone a little, write some more notes lol.
Yea, I hope we get more weird unique shit like Entombed and Cherry Waves on this album please.
I just want more walls of sound. Every album has a few songs that always deliver, so I'm not worried. I do feel the fatigue though about the chugging.
I don't want the album to come out...
I kinda feel that MMIAM lacks that creative spark on guitar, I know the song is short and repetitive to a certain point. But to me it just feels like Steph delivered the minimum on this track.
I mean Steph has been phoning it in for more than a decade at this point and the music is still great. It's Steph.
There's always a repetitive riff track on the album. Diamond Eyes isn't anything special, but it's fucking good.
Swerve City is a repetitive riff. Still good.
Genesis.. is pretty much the same riff over and over
Ohms is the same way.. except he reverses the riff at the end, still good.
I'm not worried that we wont hear any killer riffs, but they're generally not the singles.
Im ready for album reviews to start leaking out. Detailed track by track reviews. I always enjoy reading those before I hear the songs
I'm really thought Gore had a lot of cool moments on it. I still love Rubicon to this day. It's one of my favorite closers from them. But there's definitely something lacking about the record.
With ohms hearing the album closer as the single just ruined the experience for me. I know that sounds stupid, but there's just something about hearing a Deftones album closer for the first time. It was a bummer to not have that experience. I'm so glad we will get that this time. And departing the body sounds like an amazing title for an album closer. Super stoked for that!

I feel like we are going to get songs like that, I think Steph is the most transparent and he mentioned a little continuation of Koi in this album. I agree with yall's opinions too, Steph's been on autopilot for a while. Still love em, hope he has some real moments on this album.
Stef will definitely do something different fs, I feel like MMIAM is a bit different then most honestly,
I hate Tempest but it reminded me of it but in a good way this time, MMIAM is a mix of Tempest, Genesis, and Urantia.
Also the KNY side from this song is coming from chinos vocals, its very spacey and like reverby like KNY [imo]
Sorry for the rant its 2 am and I need to gts
Just to kick up the hornet's nest... Have we agreed or are we assuming that MMIAM is going to seamlessly blend in to the following track? Though the song has nearly grown on me (I did NOT like it intitally because I fund it paint by numbers and a little lazy), the way this thing ends just infuriates me...
25 days until album release...
Possibly 18 days until second single release!
MMIAM is trapped in my head again. Hadn't listened to it for about a week and then put it on in the car yesterday and now it's wormed its way back in.
I wish they would record B-sides again. I think once we started expecting them, the band decided it was time to stop.
I wish they would release the ones that they're holding on to
Like Crest.
Meesa want crest
I still haven't heard Crest
:(
Or Bumble D and the Like Linus 1992 Maverick Demo That has Too Many Freaks and Guest in it in studio quality, not the crappy sounding demos that you can hear everywhere, I have been searching for a long time
This is the only thing I can find of the studio version from that demo they did for Maverick in 92 and this guy claims he has the whole thing but won't upload it...

Fair, I agree in my initial reaction but it has grown on me and I've kinda come to expect that approach from Steph now.
Will it seamlessly blend into the next song? We'd hope the tracks flow well into each other.

It always finds it's way back into my brain... Chino's melodies especially.
I really like Chino's vocal melody in MMIAM. It sounds like classic deftones.
Guess no one cares bout the studio versions of Like Linus or Bumble D? Lol

Hopefully getting reviews soon
Should be getting write ups soon i'd say if they're letting record stores hear it early, no doubt music journalists have heard it as well. Maybe tomorrow or next friday?
Yeah 4sure, if record stores are already hearing it, no doubt some journalists got it too. Hopefully some reviews or leaks pop up soon.

Yah those detailed track-by-track reviews really build the hype. It's like getting a sneak peek into the vibe of the album
I really hope this album doesn't sound the like "deftones inspired" bands, like its so plain and boring its over used, I hope it sounds crazy [il it will im js saying some shit to say it]

Must be pretty confident in this one if they're letting journalists and/or select people listen to it this early.
the instagram link seems to be a bunch of record store owners. So yeah, they must be pretty confident if they're listening to it early too..

There's a couple impressions in the comments. Saying it's an incredible album and frustrated they only got to listen to it once. Couple others also saying it's really good.

the "deftones inspired" bands don't even have the iconic deftones recipe for a deftones sound. they all sound like shoegaze slop with distorted guitars at max so i highly doubt deftones will take this route lmao. either way, i have high hopes for this album and i just have this feeling it will sound really good
Don't particularly like Ian Cohen but he was spot on when he described the current moaning-over-shoegaze-guitars thing as 'Swagless Chino'.

There's a reason Deftones are Deftones and all those other bands aren't. You have nothing to worry about.

I've never really ordered CDs from online sellers or local shops or anything. But this time around I'm ordering like four or five CDs from different retailers and record stores in the hopes that maybe even one will arrive a little bit early LOL. I know that's highly unlikely but hey, worst thing that happens is I have a few copies to give away :)

Maybe they release a song on 8/8 for the infinity symbol.. infinite source? Hmmmmmm
Just listened to mmiam on relly nice headphones and HOLY SHIT. THAT PRODUCTION 😍😍 THE GUITAR IS SUPER MASSIVE
One thing I am the most intrigued about the new album is the bass work because they have a new bassist. Unfortunately MMIAM isn't really a good sample as bass line mostly follows the guitar riff and Stephen's riff fill so much the low frequencies already, the bass does not have much room to breath.

Because despite appearing in photos, he's still essentially a session player. He's described as 'touring bassist' on their Spotify bio.

Pfft no idea. I imagine they want to distinguish things a little more clearly given what happened with Sergio, whatever they do.
It is interesting that he's in the promo photos despite being quite clearly delineated as touring bassist otherwise. Suggests that they consider him a real part of the album at least, and that Lance, if he is involved at all, is nothing more than a small bit-part player on it.
I wouldn't be surprised if Lance isn't on it, and if he is then I'd be surprised if it was more than one or two little features.
The Zane Lowe was fairly light on the new album so we'll what information emerges when the Kerrang/Metal Hammer-type feature interviews emerge.
I hope they do more podcasts and interviews. Chino did a few for Ohms, which was great. I just wanna see them do more long form interviews. It would be awesome if they did another Zane Lowe interview after the album launches where they can talk more in-depth about the new album. They couldn't really go into much detail in the recent interview for obvious reasons, but it would be cool if Zane got them for a follow up.
After thinking about it, I think another single releasing this Friday would be great and would be a great move.

While I don't think I want or need another single, I do think it would be a good move on the band's part to keep up the hype for the month until the album drops. I selfishly hate hearing 2 out of 11 songs before the album releases. For once I'd like to go into this album knowing as little as possible. But if they released a new single this far out, there's no chance I can avoid listening to it.
SINGLE OR NO SINGLE... ONLY 18 DAYS UNTIL ALBUM RELEASE !!!!!!!!!

I am getting old. I've been a fan since I was 16, and now I am 41. The wait for private music was the longest (5 years damn) but definitely felt the shortest.

man... I wish I knew deftones when I was like 2
It kinds sucks knowing that they might only have like 2 more albums after this maybe 💔
WHY CRUEL WORLD WHY 😫
Also 41. Was a fan at 14. For me, this absolutely feelks like the longest. But since Ohms came out I have lived in 3 different places and had 3 different jobs. So it's different for me.
But we are here now, and so fucking close!

Yeah, I remember first listening to it the night before via a cd rip or something. We always end up hearing the album a day or two early, so we really only have like 17-18 days most likely.

I'm 38. Been a fan since White Pony (I was around 14), but Self Titled is kinda when my real obsession took off. Been here for every album release since. It's legit one of the most exciting experiences. No other band does it for me in terms of getting this excited for a new album. Maybe Tool is a close second but they take so long between albums that it kinda kills the hype for me.
39. Heard MoS on the Radio in 1998 and that was it. Hooked ever since.
No history compared to you guys but,mid 2023 must friend recommend me deftones and I tried to listen to it and i hated it i said "to much screaming" [during that time I was really into slow r&b]
But late 2023 I decided to give it another shot because I was getting into more rock and shit like that
I fell in love with the music.
Only last year in November is when I fully listened to koi no yokan all the way
I was building a 1,000 piece Patriots football puzzle with my dad my room smelled like the Christmas acorns so cinnamonay
DUDE IM ALREADY GETTING NOSTALGIC FROM 9 MONTHS AGO 😭
Edit: yet again ive listen to each album so many times, swerve city is my #1 played song on Spotify.
2023 Spotify wrapped i listened to 8,049 minutes of music
2024 Spotify wrapped, js deftones alone was 8,658
Nice one :)
I think I first heard them in about '07 maybe? I was 12 and building a passion for music and every band I liked seemed to namecheck Deftones.
I think I heard Bored or Change first and ended up on White Pony sometime after. It quickly blew me away; it was the first time I ever knew I was listening to a genuine masterpiece of an album. There was a complexity of mood that I couldn't grapple with, couldn't categorise, couldn't understand much beyond the fact that it lured me in. Everything, right down to the timings of he silences between tracks, seemed perfect. The suggestion of emotions and thoughts beyond what was written, I had no comparison for. And the scope...wow. It basically opened up all of music to me.
Turned 40 in June. Fan since 14. Had a couple songs on soundtracks so knew of them but then heard/watched BQAD late one night on mtv2. Been on here since it was the deftonesworld message board. Always enjoy seeing the familiar names pop back up on here during album release time.
48 here. Been a fan since Adrenaline dropped. I was hooked on 7 words for months on months. Die hard ever since. I have the white pony tattooed on my right bicep and crosses on the left. Took my son about a year ago he got the same.
Seems a lot of us are in the same age group here. Damn, I remember deftonesworld...
Started listening to them after WP. So sadly I can't say I was with them from the beginning, I knew the name and was getting into nu metal at the time, but it was an ex gf who suggested I listen to WP, and the rest is history.
I was at work one day shortly after discovering WP and MOS came on the radio, it was so exhilarating and I just knew it was Deftones but wasn't sure because it sounded so different than WP.
I went looking for their albums at cd stores (because that's what you did back then) and all I could find was Adrenaline. I knew it had to be on one of their older albums. I was kinda disappointed to not find that song but it was still an adventure and I ended up digging Adrenaline, and then REALLY getting into ATF when I finally came across it.

I remember when I bought ATF the dude behind the counter was like "too bad we don't have a used copy of that. But I don't know many people that would give that album up." He wasn't wrong lol
I checked Deftonesworld almost daily for years and years until the sharing lungs feed stopped earlier this year I think.
My mom said shes gonna email Deftones and ask them to sign my numbered one bc its near my birthday
Mostly likely they wont but if they Holt shit man that'd be insane
I am 41. It was May 17th, 1998. Got to go to the record store with a family friend to pick out a CD for my bday. I bought ATF because a good friend of mine had once said "Deftones are cool" and I thought the chick on the cover was hot.
He drove a baby blue 1956 Buick Special. I had my CD Walkman thing with me. I popped in the album and hit play.
By the time the first chorus of MOS finished, I knew, instantly, "this is the greatest thing I have ever heard in my life". Still my GOATed album. Deftones' music is still my favorite anything ever created, other than my wife and kids. I am taking an 11 day vacation for Private Music :D
40, my brother is 3 years older, so he was into them when he was in his teenage years, I was like 10/11/12 ish.. i'd hear it all the time, the videos for Bored and MOS/BQAD would be on Much Music every now and then.. didn't really get super into them until my brother brought home a leaked copy of White Pony. After that, i've been there for every future release.

It was how I would get to SL. Any time that feed had a thread I cared about I'd venture in.
I found Deftonesworld looking for a pre-sale (I think) ticket code for the 2003 club tour. 22 years ago. Wild.
If the second single is "infinite source" it would match the ♾️ concept of it being released on 8.8
But it's Monday already and no teaser for this Friday...
Based on track lenght and intuition... which one do you guys think will be the second single?
Locked Club - 2:52
Ecdysis - 3:28
Infinite Source - 3:32
Souvenir - 6:10
CXZ - 3:12
I Think About You All the Time - 4:08
Milk of the Madonna - 4:08
Cut Hands - 3:01
Metal Dream - 3:02
Departing the Body - 5:59

8/8 aside.. I was thinking Infinite Source or Metal Dream. I have a feeling that Metal Dream might be a Digital Bath/Beauty School/Sex Tape style track. Just a feeling. I think people assume it's heavy because "Metal" is in the title but Chino isn't that predictable. I could see them releasing a less traditional "heavy" track for the second single, if we get one.

I feel like "i think about you all the time" is gonna be a sextape typa song, Chino said in thr interview he got out if thr beach and just started strumming the chords its like it came to him,

i feel like the next single is going to either be infinite source or i think about you all the time. theyre relatively short compared to, for example souvenir which is 6 minutes long, and their titles are in a way ''radio appropriate''. another guess is potentially cut hands but i'm not sure. i do hope departing the body isn't going to be the next potential single as it would just spoil the end of the album

They cant 💔💔💔
I don't think we'll get anything on 8/8. I mean it fits the whole 8 theme thing we had going for August release, but I think it'll be the 15th... Anyway, IF we don't get anything this week from them, apparently there's a band called Great American Ghost that are releasing a single on Wednesday and it's a cover of HITE.
Also my prediction for second single will either be infinite source or i think about you all the time.
Would the second single also have a music video or no?
Ohms had 3 music videos

No one knows, maybe? At the minimum it'll have a lyric video, best case is they made a second video.
I completely forgot Ceremony had a video. What an odd choice.
seems to me a lot of bands are putting out the first 1 or 2 tracks out as singles so they don't fuck up the tracking of the album. *shrug*
Been a while fam. Hope you all are well and excited

Kinda cool video, lotsa "Easter Eggs" great song too.
For ohms it was 4 weeks from first single to second.
This week is the 4th week since mmiam, so we could get it Friday. They only started teasing genesis2 days before they released the video, so teasers could start Wednesday.

I hope souvenir is good because of how long it is and hope it's length is not due to a long intro or outro.

In going to skip listening to any second single and have only listened to MMiaM a handful of times. I want the album's first listen to be as fresh as possible. I'm literally on my way to the airport for my summer hols and arrive back home on the Tuesday before its release so post holiday blues will be massively mitigated!

Yeah I hope its not like the spell of mathematics, i love the song but I dont want a 3 minute outro of interlude,
I liked the pompeji ending I loved it sm but do u want it again, yes and no.

Yk what's pretty cool about milk of thr madonna being thr second single? Its the 8th song on the album
Interesting there haven't been any other interviews yet. Things are surely going to heat up in the next week and a half.
I remember back in May on the discord we were talking about maybe the snake being an ouroboros with the infinity symbol and what not, now we have a song called infinite source, and friday is 8/8..
"infinite source" is kinda like an ouroboros eating itself, it would need to be an infinite source to be able to keep eating itself lol
There's a screenshot of it on Reddit and aparently on Amazon music as the next single
This would be really weird if it was true. Personally I dont know if amazon music adds singles to an upcoming album playlist as they release but if its true im assuming thats the case
I'll do you one better, Amazon Music doesnt show the song for me, but the time for "1" song is 7 minutes. 2:51 + 4:08 = 7 minutes rounded up by 1 second. Edit: I just checked the Amazon Music app, and it shows the song title on there just like the reddit post.

That's some crazy attention to detail, good detective work everyone.
I use Apple music and it still says 3 mins. Based on the image above looks like MOTM is next.
Milk of the Madonna coming out this Friday
If this new single had been "locked club" which is the second track, I would listen to it without a doubt...
But given that the album release is so close... ONLY 16 DAYS AWAY... I feel like listening to the 8th track is spoiling the experience a bit...
Well there was that one time
with Rosemary and Tempest so..

Fuck it.. I'm gonna listen to it. It's not like I won't listen to this album literally a thousand times. In the grand scheme of things, it's not that big of a deal and I've listened to every single on every album release, so why stop now? :o

No, my best guess is same timeline as ohms which would make it this Friday, now Amazon "leaking" the second single ahead of the date we think they will start teasing it (tomorrow), almost feels like it'll be this week.
I want to refrain from listening to it but it'll be super hard not to. I wanna wait for the album to be fully out BUT IDK MAN

I wonder if people will type motm when mentioning that song.
It's crazy, it feels like we got MMIAM last week..
Apple Music is now also showing 11 songs, 7mins at the bottom of the album.
Sorry if this has been pointed out already.

I show 11 songs 6 minutes on Apple Music. My App still shows 3 minutes
I will definitely be pressing play. I can't believe we're so close. Assuming it leaks a couple days early which is pretty much inevitable, we may be just 2 weeks away now. That's insane to think about. 11 day vacation starting on the 22nd for me also :D

deftones (i mean their label) need to learn to do any announcements to their fan before sending any information to the streaming services lol.
Track 8, 8/8
Too bad we are not in 2008, missed opportunity by 17 years
We thinking this one's going to be another heavy track or something a little more "radio friendly"?
Heard the so called 8 sec "snippet" there's no vocals just a chuggy riff with some drums in the back. Sounds good and heavy from what I heard, but takin it with a grain of salt.
It's definitely got the Deftones feel.

Definitely could pass for Deftones, only thing throwing me off is the sound of the drums. Doesn't sound like Abe's kit to me, mostly that snare but doesn't mean it isn't them. This snippet fuckin slaps regardless

If it's coming out at 8am est/6 am pst, there's already only about 12h 45m to put out a teaser or social post. Unless they do it an hour earlier.

On Thursday , they also teased it for a few days before.
Genesis was the same way. They teased it Wednesday and Thursday for a midnight release Thursday night
If they release it at the same time as MMIAM then we are...
46 hours and 38 minutes away!

Well no, if they release it at the same time as mmiam , on Thursday, it's like 23 hours. If it's midnight release, which is more likely then we're 28-29 hours away

Ohms to Genesis was 4 weeks to release, Thursday (tomorrow) is 4 weeks from mmiam, that's the only reason there may be hope we hear it tomorrow early

If New Zealand is getting it at midnight NZ time, that's 9AM EST, which is 12.5 hours from now.
If it's a 0:00 EST release Friday morning, then it's 27.5 hours from now. We're basically one full day away at the best case scenario.

Ecdysis may be the 3rd single?
https://x.com/beat_release/status/1949542330345852936?s=46&t=Bq14bB5-vvi0JV5jdPjTEw

i feel like if there is potentially 3 singles then it would be a bit excessive, considering the album is quite short in terms of songs and length. i really want to listen to this album without any piror knowledge on any of the songs (that aren't the singles)
I doubt we get three singles before the album drops. Ecdysis would probably be the post-album launch single if I had to guess. It might just be a highlight track that they want to bring attention to. Record labels did get to listen to it early last week, so it could be a favorite?

Digital bath is not the 3rd song of white pony. It's elite.
The re-issue is not the official release, its just greed by the label.

But IMO, Leathers is the greatest first single they have ever released. Kind of hate tha ttrack was released first because I played that song for like a week straight. To each their own though! I don't care for Graphic Nature much at all and I have gotten heat for it before lol.

Not sure if this is already posted on here, but this cover rips!
just a thought, what if mmiam isn't the "main" single, and it was just to give us a little taste and motm is the big fuck you single.
Two more hours?

We''ll find out in about 45 minutes if it's a Midnight EST release or a timezone'd release with NZ getting it first.
Usually when it appears in filter news, it's a local midnight release. I'm feeling confident it's in 45 minutes!

I've only heard the Apple Music desktop app as showing the change in track length of 7 minutes, Mobile browser and Mobile app seem to just show 3 mins
5 minutes from now... or it's a nothing burger until midnight EST. Unless they do 6PM EST like mmiam. if it's not in 5 minutes, they'll likely post on socials about it releasing tonight.

Can't wait

wow... for me, this is literally one of the best songs I heard from them in years. I don't remember liking a Deftones song so much right from the first listen, not since the Diamond Eyes era probably or kny. It's truly incredible and yet so simple but catchy.
This album is already in my top 5, and only two songs have been released yet... probably will reach top 3 when released

My sentiments exactly
Holy ghost
I'm on fire
Thoughts on the mixing/production? It sounds a bit washed out and Chino is really low.
yea id like a link. i hate being that guy :(
i felt a 90's vibe as soon as the song started
Same i really want a link 😟 haha i wanna join the convo id really really appreciate it
Can I get the link?!
The youtube link existing but not available is such a tease lol
Id love a link as well
https://youtu.be/xvFZjo5PgG0?si=LXUMzger17dXpZCy
If someone could share a new song, it would be awesome.
This link is dead .....
just listened, has some SNW vibes. like it
https://youtu.be/B_MxsM80LqM?si=QhFrbKAcCTXUNe2S
i listened to it but i will stop there until its on streaming platform as it doesn't sound like a quality rip. Song is great though, wish I first listened to it with better audio.
I have no words... it's incredible.
First of all... it's the best shit Steph has done since SNW.
There's something Depeche Mode about it haha I don't know how to explain it.
It's so fucking good.
It's also a bit like Mein. But really unique.
Chino is one the most relevant artists of our time, period. I love you Chino.
Total snw vibes. Like mein. Love it
Damn sleep. Anyone have a link or wouldn't mind sharing with me?
Sounded terrible on my ride in to work. Like a VHS rip lol.
I'M ON FIIIIIIIIREEEEEE
What a fucking banger... one of my favorites of their entire catalog... it's that good.
thought mmiam was boring, this has some good atmosphere and lots of layers!

Download turbo VPN, use the free trial, set it to new Zealand, restart YouTube app, find the song via DT YouTube page, profit. It's a quality rip
These are some of Chino's best lyrics in a minute. Like ATF era Chino lyrics. The song really has an ATF era vibe about it. Especially the guitar and just the way Chino is singing. Reminds me a little bit of Crenshaw Punch or Can't Even Breathe but with their more modern sound.
Also thanks to everyone that sent me a link! Can't wait to hear it in better quality

Just used a VPN to listen to it on NZ YouTube and can confirm it sounds much better and more clear.
It's like Mein but better. Almost like Mein meets Swerve City and a little bit of the Lotion riff.
Can someone share a link? Please
Investing in this stupid band has been the greatest payoff.
Been listening since 1999.
They have never let us down, for real.

I think Vesanic's band is the Chi era alone. I always felt like he was holding on for something that he connected to like that and for whatever reason he never really found it again.
I seem to remember him praising the title track on Ohms when it came out; then the next day he came back and said it just wasn't the same as Hexagram.

You do you. Every generation is different. Just glad people are still stoked on this band.
What most intrigued me about the upcoming album was the bio on Spotify that describes it as 'at once a psychedelic voyage and skull-rattling wallop'.
Feels like this is one of the songs it's alluding to.
So damn good.
It sounds like Mein but if it was on Self-Titled. But also an evolution. I'm digging it.
15 days to go!!
It sounds like Mein but if it was way bigger and more disorienting and had strange submerged vocal layers, addictive melodies, and better riffs.
I can't wait for a better version. Not bad though
This. Is. A. BANGER

This. I love it
I actually think he is saying Holy Ghost, Holy Spirit. The Milk of the Madonna is a direct reference to the Virgin Mary breastfeeding Christ.
This is one of my favorite guitar performances from Steph in a long time
I am not sure why Chino's voice is kinda lost in the mix. I had the same issue with MMIAM. I wouldn't have mind if it was boosted a little. I guess its an artistic decision.

Thanks all!
This is so, so, so good. Beyond what I was hoping for.
FYI the screen recorded version on reddit is better quality
that's what I share.
edit: actually no, the version I share sounds better imo

SUCH GOOD ENERGY, SOUNDTRACK FOR A MOVIE ENERGY. I WAS JUMPING AROUND IN MY ROOM, DUDE WHAT THE FUCK DEFTONES THIS IS INSANE.
THR SLIDE RIFF AHHHHH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR THR LINK. HOLY SHIT MAN 😭😭🙏
I know dude! The energy on this track is wonderful! And thanks for the shoutout on being a nice person :) Glad to have young people stoked about Deftones as much as us oldheads :D
FOR REAL!!

Can you send me your version? Ty!
I've been waiting for a song like this from them for years.
https://music.apple.com/nz/album/private-music/1825435148
Just play it through the browser, not the app, and make sure the location is set to New Zealand and there you go a 1:30 preview
Yea ok the preview proves me the version I listen sounds pristine.
I have the MP4, I love it
Ps... How in the hell do I change my profile pic from David Spade?
Holding off until the 22nd. Wish me luck. Glad y'all are digging it!
Listened to the low quality rip this morning. At first I thought it was fake. Vocals sounded weird. Reminded me of Mein at first. Definitely hear the pumpkins influence in there for sure. Gonna hold out until proper release tonight to listen again.
I'd also like a link
Are the official lyrics on Apple Music for those ~in~ NZ?
https://youtu.be/tvUM1th1z6I?si=egSI6F_VPYiJRcE5
I dig it. The cord progression reminds me of this. Bodies.
I'm really impressed with what's been released from this new album.
These seems correct

Yeah, IMHO I pass on this radio friendly single.
Quote from: nicklav on Aug 07, 2025, 03:58 PMI've been waiting for a song like this from them for years.
. hell yeah dude I am so glad you dig it!!!! I adore Ohms. But this might be the best song I've heard from them since Rubicon. I don't want to sound like that guy, but legit the shit makes me want to cry. It has really big coming-of-age vibes. That analogy of kids running around in the summertime and just enjoying life is so on point
Okay I'm intrigued. The Mein comparisons concern me. However quite a bit of love from you guys as well. Can't wait to hear and judge myself!

it depends what you dislike about mein. I dislike mein, and I can see the comparison, but this is much better, by a mile.
The Mein comparison can only really be made on the groove. And the groove is the only strong part of Mein. The songs aren't similar otherwise.
After a proper listen to a good quality version on a real set of speakers... fuck YES. This is deftones. There is NO band that can replicate what these guys can do together and this song is again more proof of that.
I can't unhear "bodies" by smashing pumpkins in it. I realllllly like it.
Appreciate the feedback guys! Gonna hold off till midnight but everyone's interpretation is very cool. Pretty excited here!
The structure of motm kind of remind me of Graphic Nature, but I might be super wrong.

Mein is a bottom five Deftones track for me. but Madonna is slowly climbing the ranks for me. Like I would not be surprised if this ends up as a top 10 all-time track. It's more about the beat and the rhythm. The chord progression is way better and the vocals are way better. It's like Mein meets Lotion meets Swerve City. But at the same time it's just so unique in its own thing. When they said reinvigorated sound, this is exactly kind of what I had in mind but didn't think they'd actually do this. I am falling over myself with this track :D
You and me both.
Ah stupid work. And I was gonna just wait til official release but I keep seeing Depeche Mode mentioned. So, just to join the chorus, would someone care to send me a link that actually works? I'd be very grateful.
It's wild to me that the band has been completely silent on releasing the second single.

This is what ultimately led me to believe those are the lyrics. Such a banger song goddamn
After 7 listens to Milk...
Floored.
I hear no depeche mode. I hear LOTS of smashing pumpkins influence. Like Melon Collie b-sides. It's like if "Bodies" had a nasty little baby with "Mein" and it grew up to be Bruce Willis' character in The Last Boy Scout. It's like what SNW might have sounded like if the band had been more cohesive.
Might be recency bias, but this one song might be better than anything on Ohms or Gore.
This album so far is just fucking good vibes and high energy.
I could see a major mosh pit if they play milk of the madonna live.

Midnight, local time
I have to complain a bit. I feel the echo effect on Chino's voice is wayyyy too much. but the song still rocks.

I don't mind the delay, it works really well with his voice in general. He uses it live a shit ton, so I'm used to it. But his vocals are pushed back in the mix, same with MMIAM. I guess that's just how it's going to be on this album. I don't hate it but I don't particularly love it either. His vocals overall sound better than they have in years, so it's kind of a bummer that they have them set more in the "middle" of the mix rather than up front, like usual.

could you send it to me too please!
this single is on repeat right now, its fire, buying it as soon as its available, cheers for the heads up, much love
This sounds like Palms and Deftones SNW had a baby. MMIAM is better in my opinion but MOTM is a solid 7.8. Hyped for the album as always!!
it def gives me SNW vibes with that chorus guitar, love it, with reading the lyrics on here it helped make me love it more, holy ghost im on fire, that sounds so cool. great tune to get you bouncing around to. hoping they have some chill ones for the younger generation who love tunes like cherry waves etc. but this so satisifying from a fan since 96 era.
May I has link please good sir

funny thing is, both single will still sound fresh to me in 2 weeks even after playing them a bunch. They're the kind of songs that doesn't get old for me.
And nothing else in the world truly sounds like this and that's what makes this band special and everlasting
It sounds like Mein 2.0

According to my Apple Music:
Bloody rain floods these streets came falling to the earth
Run away, a thunder hangs above me like an eye
Holy ghost, I'm on fire
Holy spirit, I'm on fire
Blows a wind, it fills and quakes the houses from above
Wide awake, burning out the foxes from the vines
Holy ghost, I'm on fire
Holy spirit, I'm on fire
A display, tongues of fire against the night
The display ignites your mind
Feel the waves crash against the concrete from below
A new wine intoxicates you slowly out of time
Holy ghost
I'm on fire
Holy spirit
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
Holy ghost (Say, say, say)
I'm on fire (Say, say, say)
Holy spirit (Say, say, say)

I love the cymbal loop effect going on here too. Is that a Frank move or is Abe actually making it happen.

Chino really cooked with the lyrics. Feels like he's trying to use some new words and imagery in his lyrics this time around. "Burning out the foxes from the vines" was definitely not on my bingo card.

Abe does that loop so flawlessly that it does sound like a drum loop or something. I'm excited to hear what Abe brings to the table on this record. I'm very impressed with his playing on the two singles. I love his groove on MMIAM, and he's got some stand out moments on Madonna as well.

So as I try to wait 3 more hours (thanks BTW Starslinger). Been scrolling back over the past many pages to see reactions to the new track.

Mountain or Madonna?

I find them hard to compare. They are both very different songs. My personal taste for deftones songs is closer to Mountain, but I feel Madonna is a stronger song.
Both are good, but I enjoy Madonna more

Those two tracks are so completely different, but if I had to choose one over the other, milk of the madonna for sure, mmiam seems so basic after listening to it, and I love mmiam. But in my opinion, milk of the madonna could easy have been the lead single... it's much more chaotic.. then it gives you a little breather.. then it snacks you on the face again
Madonna at this point.

Your will is stronger than most. I'm impressed.
Having spent several weeks with Mountain and having only listened to Madonna like 4 times - I think I like Madonna more. Though the excitement I had for Mountain was far higher on initial listen. Both are great tracks, and have me extremely excited for what's left. I think we might be in store for peak Deftones.
Awesome feedback so far fellas, thanks!
I can jam more to Mountain but I vibe out more to Madonna

let's ask the real burning question here: will there be any Chino "WOOOO"s on this album.
I think we get one "wooo!" And that's it. I feel like his "woooing" era is behind him. Maybe he'll start doing "weee's!" now in this new era?
we could get a WOOO WOOOO...like Bub Rub

I think MMIAM released 5pm Central time, but someone else here knows that fs. My memory is shit.
If I had to guess, I think this single is probably releasing at midnight.
Mountain was also the album announcement, which is why they had a set release time for that. Second single will likely just drop at midnight tonight local.

1 hour 47 minutes
Thing is, best of my knowledge the Band hasn't announced anything about Madonna dropping. However wherever you are the overwhelming thought is in about 47 minutes. EST

45 min from now should be for everyone
2 More Minutes???

Wait...one more time or two lol
Yeah I'll take this over the first single all day
Official lyrics from YouTube
bloody rain floods these streets / came falling to the earth
run away a thunder hangs above me like an eye
holy ghost | i'm on fire
holy spirit | i'm on fire
blows a wind it fills and quakes the houses from above
wide awake burning out the foxes from the vines
holy ghost | i'm on fire
holy spirit | i'm on fire
a display tongues of fire against the night
the display ignites your mind
feel the waves crash against the concrete from below
a new wine intoxicates you slowly out of time
holy ghost | i'm on fire
holy spirit | i'm on fire
a display tongues of fire against the night
the display ignites your mind
holy ghost | i'm on fire
holy spirit | i'm on fire... i'm on fire
holy ghost (save save save me) i'm on fire
holy spirit | i'm on fire... i'm on fire

Oh nice! Dude that game blew me away. It ruined me for the rest of the year. It was so good that I haven't even cared to play anything else since.. nothing comes close this year. Looking forward to Ghost of Yotei and FF7 Part 3, whenever that gets announced.

Yeah it's weird they never made any announcement or even a tease for the new single. Maybe they're waiting until the afternoon
New conspiracy lol
9 songs left. What if, to beat the album making, they post a new song every business day until release
9 days brings us to Thursday the 21st
Which is usually when the album would leak anyway from NZ getting it
No. This will never happen. I'm just excited yo.
A bit to unpack here.
First things first. To all you who posted thoughts I'm impressed and thanks! I hear Mein, Swerve, SP Bodies absolutely. Pure Tones. Totally different vibe from Mountain. Definitely a "grower"!
Wall of Sound seems in total effect. Abraham Shines! Chino not out front here. Tight track.
So excited and optimistic about this record!

I have not enjoyed a game so much since maybe Hollow Knight or when the OG Demons Souls came out. I literally thought I was depressed or just getting too old to enjoy gaming and realized it was because most games just suck nowadays and I get bored. Then you get a gem like Expedition 33 and holy shit.

No its a joke bc mmiam got a mv 5 days later
Y'all are hyping up that game like crazy. I have it on my ps5 can't wait to play it
i dont know if its just me, or the start of madonna reminds me faintly of lovers.
anyone agree? or do i sound crazy.
After 1st listen, not a big fan of Milk of the Madonna and I cant even tell why. Maybe the tempo or the amount of effects on his voice, idk. Just didnt like that much. Insane drums tho. MMIAM is way better, imo.

I don't typically like to overhype games or movies, but it's worth the hype. Game of a generation type-shit. Best to just play it, don't read about it or look stuff up. It's got some great twists and turns.
Anyways, sorry didn't mean to derail the convo but definitely check it out.

honestly i feel the same way. i cant give a reason either but the milk of madonna is not a song that i would play on repeat. it's not particularly bad, just a skippable song and kinda forgettable. the vocals for the chorus is great but nonetheless i def prefer my mind is a mountain. might change opinions the more i listen to it, but i've listened to it a few times now and it hasn't really grown on me
I think clair obscure is definitely worth the hype story wise. The gameplay is very good too but not as great as the story.
Just saying, sounds like a Wes Borland riff. But i like it!
New track is almost Pumpkins. Get the SNW era vibe too. Dig it.
Quote from: nineteen on Aug 08, 2025, 05:25 AMNew track is almost Pumpkins. Get the SNW era vibe too. Dig it.
Definitely got a pumpkins vibe from it.
Definitely got a SNW vibe / sound. Chino sounds great. But hoping for more experimental songs on the record. 🙏🏻 it's a grower .
So far, I have managed to only listen to "My Mind Is A Mountain" three times think.
I'm tempted to listen to this new "Milk Of The Madonna" single, but am going to just hold out until the whole album drops in a few days.
I love sitting down to listen to a whole album all the way through for the first time. Don't want to spoil the experience too much.
Lets give credit when due, Abe freaakin killed it on this track. Now i know why he wears gloves now!

And you're right about Warner Brothers. They know of our hardcore fandom existence.
We have definitely felt the heat coming around the corner during album releases. With that said it doesn't feel like a real album discussion until TWBB shows up!

I think something like that would be rad, actually.
Like a season of a tv series... having the fans commenting on each track like is a new episode... but it would work better with a few days between each song
I just figured the 9 business day thing because then it ends on the day New Zealand gets the album before the rest of the world, and it'll leak then anyway, so why not slow release the whole album just before it leaks to beat the leak essentially

Yeah definitely never going to happen, just trying to help the next 2 weeks pass quick lol
Not sure if anyone pointed this out yet but you can hear a split second of the song before as like a transition between the two. In the Zane Lowe interview I believe he said I think about you all the time was his favorite. Not to sound crazy but it does sound very melancholic. Almost like the ending of rivière.
I hate he bounced, seemed like a really good dude. Contributed a ton here.
I prefer the Terry Date albums. He captures their sound to perfection. He gives them that mysterious and haunting sound like no other and makes chinos vocals sound phenomenal always. They always do sound great, but Terry knows how chino SHOULD sound. I like Nick, but Terry is the one.

Oh you can guarantee that. In fact, there's probably someone in NZ leaking this idea you just had, right now. They quick >.<
I feel like milk of the madonna is a very very different deftones song, like its very 2000's to me, dont get me wrong I love it and its very good one of their best, but it was such a new vibe its like a whole other band, especially that clean chorus guitar part, its so different,
No hate for the track again, I love it but its different, [its because its upbeat]
When sharing lungs sent me the track, I turned it off because I thought it was fake lol. Not digging it.
Quote from: phil for real on Aug 08, 2025, 01:57 PMWhen sharing lungs sent me the track, I turned it off because I thought it was fake lol. Not digging it.
how would you think that? it sounds extremely deftones.
That makes no sense. The track is fantastic.
Not to me lol. Sounds bland and lacks dynamics.
To each their own.
Im so excited to get my iridescent vinyl! Im super curious and the number and everything about it, like the resealable poly bag
Quote from: phil for real on Aug 08, 2025, 02:18 PMNot to me lol. Sounds bland and lacks dynamics.
the drumming is a straight give away it's abe.
Which makes me realise that if abe ever leave the band, I feel like deftones will not be deftones anymore.
Milk of the Madonna is like Mein + Bodies by Smashing Pumpkins
Funny because Chino performed Bodies live with the Pumpkins some years back
I get missing the good old days, but this new stuff is still VERY MUCH Deftones. Try being a Tame Impala fan.. his new song in 5 years is just a straight up boring house track. I get the complaint when artists stray far and away from what made them great - but Deftones doesn't do that and they haven't done that. They've put out remarkably consistent material for 30 years. It's damn near unheard of in this day and age. Every album is extremely solid, even Gore has its moments and while it may not be their best - Gore is still better than most band's best album. So while you may not like the new stuff, let's not act like "it's not as good as their old shit." That era has been over for 20 years at this point. The new shit fuckin slaps and they sound as energized and vibrant as ever.

I like Nick, but Terry is the one.
I thought the same until I heard Ohms and honestly thought that I much preferred the Nick version of modern deftones.
Yeah, Milk s blowing Mountain out of the water. I did not like the way Chino's vox were so drowned out in parts but after a few more listens, I think it really adds to it, especially the muttered "Holy Ghost.." parts. We have to be realistic and understand that as Chino gets older, he's going to find ways to sort of blend/hide some of his weaknesses vocally. It makes me think of Trent Reznor bringing out those gospel-like singers for live stuff during the Hesitation Marks performances. They sounded great but drowned Trent out a lot...but the overall sound was GREAT. I think that's kinda what Chino is doing in this song (and a lot on Gore and Ohms tracks, too). (shrug). Just thinking out loud.

Yeah both new Tame Impala and new Mac Demarco suck compared to their old stuff, I've said the same about Korn, Slipknot and Linkin Park. I thought it was just me getting older and I feared I'd feel the same about new Deftones. But holy fuck, I've never been so excited for a new album in such a long time!

I think deftones have strayed far and away from their original sound on a few tracks. Teenager is the good example. But I don't think they ever really dropped the ball by trying very new sounds and approach (with some very personal exceptions, cough Pink Cellphone outro). But this song is very much them.
I understand the sentiment, but as a fan from the start, I don't believe they ever had a sound to stray from. Adrenaline did not sound like their reggae infused rock demos. When Around the Fur came out, I thought it sounded nothing like Adrenaline. That's what I loved about it and I continue to love about them to this day. In a long list of bands I've enjoyed in my lifetime, they stand alone in ability to make me feel that way.
Guys I got a really good diamond eyes album guitar tone. Sounds very good for you've seen the butcher, would you guys like me to cover some songs?
I've had "I'm on fire" stuck in my head since last night.
Can't wait for this album to drop. So glad this place is active again. Reddit sucks lol

This is pretty much the point I was trying to make. They've always changed up their sound with every album from the very beginning, while still remaining true to themselves. Which is why I don't get the complaint from older fans when they say "I prefer their old stuff." or "their new stuff just isn't the same as the old stuff." Like, no what you really mean is you just like their first two albums and that's ok. But fans that keep going on about it 20+ years later, like give it a rest..

Im one of those old fans and Im only speaking for myself here, but the thing is, Deftones was the 1st band I fell in love with, so their early records are like a really vivid memory imprinted in my mind. Ever since, its been like a drug. I keep trying to relive and feel the same dopamine hits that their first records gave me. Its not fair to them, nor me, tbh, but I dont give a fuck, no offense. Thats is why when I heard MMIAM I was teleported back. It has THAT vibe of the Deftones I discovered as a kid. I even teared up a little, no shit. Lame, I know, but oh well.
Their 1st 4 records are immaculate to me and nothing will ever get close to it. Its just because they helped me find myself during those years. Im not saying other records after the S/T are bad, I just keep trying to replicate that guitar tone, or a song feel, you know?
Theres a lot of their newer shit that I really like. I love Diamond eyes, for instance and most of Ohms. I think KNY is really solid. Some stuff in SNW too, etc.
It is what it is. I used to think they could do no wrong and nowdays its easier to accept they are only human. Its ok to not dig some songs or even dislike it. I guess thats the benefit of getting older. Things slow down... a lot, lol.
Cheers.
I agree with just about what everyone is saying. And it's so cool that we are all still here talking about this band 10 albums deep. Incredible.
Nothing will ever top white pony for me. It's the album I measure all music against.
I personally liked both singles. They both sounded very new to me, although I did get Mein and Swerve City vibes from milk of the madonna
Waited a bit to hear the track, enjoying a wee beverage with it...and it blew me away.
At first, I dug it, then half way through...it just all hit me and I got all teary eyed; there's a new song, it's a banger, it still sounds highly energetic, still relevant, still THEM and still different too and I still like it...I get to do this again; be excited and wait for the record to drop, watch and read the interviews and go on this album cycle...
And every album cycle since probably the S/T, when watching them live and seeing them in interviews...I started becoming less afraid of aging even, less afraid of the next ten years...if I'm lucky and alive, I have everything to look forward to <3
You nailed it.
This is a great discussion and further proves the point on this band's longevity and consistency. Like a lot of you guys I've loved Deftones since the '90s and have always been amazed at how much they've evolved and pushed their sound throughout their career while never abandoning their core sound or influences. They objectively have one of the greatest discogrophies in music history for that reason. They have always seemed to be above the typical slate of musical acts because they never have had an overall critical or commercial flop or have had a "sellout" moment. I don't even consider them having multiple peaks, because every piece of music they put out is a DEFTONES song. That carries a legacy and respect with it that most band's I'm sure would love to get a piece of.
I'd tell someone who's unimpressed or skeptical of their diversity or song crafting skills to Go listen to Anniversary of an Uninteresting Event, Sextape and My Mind is a Mountain all in a row. The same band with the same core sound but with vastly different results.

HasItLeaked.com show's there isn't a leak so not sure where the source is coming from.
That post came from a profile who registered today so I wouldn't put much thought into it
Extremely unlikely it gets leaked this early. Albums these days don't leak until a day MAYBE 2 days ahead of schedule.
If the album fully leaks im not gonna listen to it, like why would you

I remember writing a script that checked on the hasitleak page of Gore and send me an phone notification when it did.

i would say 98% of the world doesn't really care that much about the leak.
My only real complaint about the new stuff so far is the production. Listening to the drums on Radiant City compared to MotM is a world of difference. Clear and punchy on the former.
You really can't beat Terry Date as an engineer though.
I thought the drums sounded great on MMIAM, so it could be track dependant.
The more I listen to Milky the more ATF era creeps in for me. Cannot explain why, maybe the melodies I dunno.

Adrenaline did not sound like their reggae infused rock demos. When Around the Fur came out, I thought it sounded nothing like Adrenaline. That's what I loved about it and I continue to love about them to this day. In a long list of bands I've enjoyed in my lifetime, they stand alone in ability to make me feel that way.
This is pretty much the point I was trying to make. They've always changed up their sound with every album from the very beginning, while still remaining true to themselves. Which is why I don't get the complaint from older fans when they say "I prefer their old stuff." or "their new stuff just isn't the same as the old stuff." Like, no what you really mean is you just like their first two albums and that's ok. But fans that keep going on about it 20+ years later, like give it a rest..
Im one of those old fans and Im only speaking for myself here, but the thing is, Deftones was the 1st band I fell in love with, so their early records are like a really vivid memory imprinted in my mind. Ever since, its been like a drug. I keep trying to relive and feel the same dopamine hits that their first records gave me. Its not fair to them, nor me, tbh, but I dont give a fuck, no offense. Thats is why when I heard MMIAM I was teleported back. It has THAT vibe of the Deftones I discovered as a kid. I even teared up a little, no shit. Lame, I know, but oh well.
Their 1st 4 records are immaculate to me and nothing will ever get close to it. Its just because they helped me find myself during those years. Im not saying other records after the S/T are bad, I just keep trying to replicate that guitar tone, or a song feel, you know?
Theres a lot of their newer shit that I really like. I love Diamond eyes, for instance and most of Ohms. I think KNY is really solid. Some stuff in SNW too, etc.
It is what it is. I used to think they could do no wrong and nowdays its easier to accept they are only human. Its ok to not dig some songs or even dislike it. I guess thats the benefit of getting older. Things slow down... a lot, lol.
Cheers.
I feel this 100% Especially Around the Fur and White Pony. Those were backdrops and soundtracks to some very pivotal moments in my life. Like core memories formed to RX Queen and MX that are special to me. I'm always hoping for that all over again. Not fair to the band but it is what it is...

Yer! Kinda Damone/MX ish a bit as well, vibe wise
Just want to throw my hat in as well. Also been a fan since the '90s. I found them during ATF so this is my 8th album cycle. Deftones album drops are like genuine life events for me. I always at least try to save vacation time so I can focus purely on the album. And as mentioned earlier, it's just such a great feeling to be in my 40s now, but have something that I look forward to that makes me feel like I'm in my 20s. Every single album I have adored. I do not love any other album more than the next (except ATF which will always be my GOAT).
I guess the only thing I cannot relate to is the excitement fading. It has never faded for me. Every single album I feel just excited as I did during my first album drop, watching all the leaks and song names. My entire family knows that every few years, I have about a month where my entire focus is this new album. This was the longest wait ever, but I have a feeling it's going to be worth every moment of it. I don't know how many more times we'll get to do this. For all we know this could be the last. I am so thankful that the band continues to make music. I know they do it for themselves and not for us, but it means everything to me that they are willing to make that music and share it with us.
But yeah I just enjoy the moment and I cannot wait for this thing to drop :) I have multiple CDs ordered, a new shirt ordered, and my digital order so I am ready to rock!
Well said Rapture, same here lol

Couldn't agree more man. My wife, kids and friends know when it's Deftones album release time because it completely consumes me. I'm so glad we have this place to talk about our favorite band because nobody in my personal life truly gets them like I do.

Agreed. I love that so many of us are right here.
I believe he is saying save save save me not say say say.... Makes more sense in the context of the song. I'm on fire, save me. To a priest or Jesus or whoever because it's obviously biblical. Once I realized that that's probably what he's saying I took a closer listen and could hear him saying save me at the end of the save save save part I could be wrong, but I hope I'm right because it makes it that much better.
It is "Save Me"
What a banger by the way. Great song. Biggest thing I'm struggling with is not listening to it anymore and that is a very good sign because I want to hear it in the record. I do it every time and I'm bummed when I wear these singles out. It has an everlasting negative touch on the album for me every time. It's the reason why I can listen to their first four or five albums all the way through and always have but it's a little more difficult for the last four or five. Ever since Saturday night wrist anyways. This album is its own in my opinion also. They all are...no comparisons.
Thanks for that. I just keep seeing lyrics posted that say say say say lol, man what a great surprise this track was. Anyone else notice the part in the beginning with Chino's voice also plays later in the song? I noticed somebody mentioned it's probably coming from the previous song and maybe it is but I feel like the same effect is in the song later. What do you think?
I think it's at the end of the breakdown without going into it and finding it again? Right before he comes back in with Holy Ghost?
Oh yeah by the way, what you guys were just talking about about the family understanding this is your time? 100%. I'm on loan right now to the band. :D
No shade on younger fans, but reading your comments and reflecting on my own experience, the longer you've been a fan, the heavier the relation to the band gets... for the better and for the worst.
It's just not the same when you've been on this train for DECADES.
It gets very personal and emotional.
Quote from: StarSlinger on Aug 08, 2025, 07:17 PMDamn I listened.. and the new album fuckin sucks guys. It's Joever. They spent too much time in Shangri-la.
Btw, I looked at images of Shangri-la... and holy shit does that place looks like paradise, for real.
To think that this album was crafted in that environment is super interesting.
27 years for me. What a trip.

I disagree. The wait between white pony and self titled when i was 16 was much more personal and emotional because that band was all i had in life. It was a dangerous obsessions and i got deeply depressed when it wasnt what I expected. I am now a lot more rationale because I matured since and if the album isnt as great as I'd hoped, it's not the end of the world.
Yeah, it is very personal at this point. 44 1/2 years old here and about a month after around the fur dropped is when I became pretty obsessed w this music. And nobody in my life really relates to it except for my little brother who I think just tries to have something in common, but doesn't really appreciate it like I do. That is funny in itself because he is 40 years old. Kind of sweet though... I even think my 10-year-old daughter tries, and I can't imagine trying to like this shit bc it just happens. Definitely an acquired Taste for people who truly love it. You also have people riding on a big wave of popularism today which is great! I think this record is going to be something I enjoy more than anything since Saturday night wrist just going off of this track alone.
we do need to remind ourselves, sometimes that this isn't our band. But it is for us.
Hey sharinglungs, do you think the way Milk was released confirms that the album will be available MIDNIGHT local time on the 22nd?
Quote from: Far away on Aug 08, 2025, 04:34 AMAfter 1st listen, not a big fan of Milk of the Madonna and I cant even tell why. Maybe the tempo or the amount of effects on his voice, idk. Just didnt like that much. Insane drums tho. MMIAM is way better, imo.
I agree, I listened to it once today and it's not my favorite so far. Of course it takes some listens for me with new Deftones for it to sink in, but I truly feel MMIAM way more atm.
I also agree with a lot of the comparisons to SP's Bodies. Makes sense since Chino performed it with them on stage.
Every new album and it's a new experience, I still get excited like a kid but as an older fan now I'm cautiously optimistic ever since SNW and Gore. I remember being so disappointed though with S/T when it came out. It since grew to be my personal favorite, to me their technical best album is WP. Their best album overall is ATF.

I can't for the life of me get anyone I know to listen to Deftones. All my friends who have similar musical taste all have their own thing. Like my friend who loves NIN, just isn't that deep on them. I have no friends or family that listen to them, I tried so hard to get my older brother to listen to them but the closest I got was he said he thought Change was pretty good. Him and his wife listen to bands like Breaking Benjamin and shit, and I'm like "bro they fucking love Deftones, they covered their fucking song!".
I met one dude in college who saw my Deftones shirt while we were taking a smoke break and he was like "I kinda like them, my favorite song is Lucky You", and I'm like gtfo.

Yup. NZ will most likely get it first, so it'll "leak" on Thursday at like 8 or 9AM EST. Official release will most likely be Midnight EST that night. Kinda like how motm came out early in NZ then "officially" at midnight est.

Yeah I remember when S/T dropped I was in a similar situation. It did not instantly vibe with me. I was 19 and my grandma that raised me had just passed away 8 months prior. I was like...*angry*. As a grown man I almost feel shame admitting I was mad a band didn't write what I was expecting.
The pizza place I worked at let us play music in the back so I just spun it on repeat for days. It started to grow on me over time and of course now I would take a bullet for that album lol. Not even a single second worth skipping. Just took time to get there. It feels almost blasphemous to think I did not instantly love songs like Hexagram, Needles, Deathblow, Cape, etc lol! It is my 17 year old daughters favorite album of all time though. When she got in to Deftones, she gravitated to ST because of the cover, and the music was just perfect for her tastes :)
Not a damn thing as wrong with lucky you. I think what they are saying is that that's a deep cut and that's not just saying yeah I think I know that band but maybe I'm wrong. That's a deep fucking cut bro and I love it and I was weirded out by it at first, and when it came out, I was already 23 years old
And if you're feeling lucky...
Come and take me home...
What an immortal vibe ST is!
To RaptureWS.... I envy that as I have a 10 year-old daughter that seems to be peeking around the corner wondering what pop is up to when Deftones is on. She has bought me a different Christmas sweater or socks the last four or five years based on this band. And I think she's starting to hear it. She's also a musician let's see anyways that's awesome man.
Good times... great vibes at SL
After several listens I can honestly say Milk of the Madonna is my favorite single since Leathers. I love everything this band does but this song is a terrific example of everything they do well and what each member brings to the table.
ST is my favorite record ever. It was the one that took the most to grow on me out of the first five. I can't help but to look at the albums that way, so don't even start I'm old. I love all the new stuff too. I don't think they've ever made a terrible record. And I listen to them all. Self titled is my thing thing. I had a couple skateboards made based on the artwork they gave us. They still hang in my garage. I glued Chino and Steve's guitar pics to one of them. And I threw all my crosses stickers from live shows on the other. Self titled is alien.
Steve's? :D :'(
I like ST now, but a lot of it is too depressing for my mood most of the time.

I noticed that. Madonna takes up two spots, so my guess is it's an error or they just left it off for visual consistency. Probably figured it's upside down and only us maniacs would even notice.

It's been thinking about this too. My guess would be It's a hidden track after ~Metal Dream but those aren't really done anymore in the age of music streaming so not really sure.
And so people are getting the whole around the fur vibe from elites' vocals. I totally hear it. Here's to stuff stepping down a string or two. Not being a guitar player. It seems possible to me, but someone else might say he's just playing that frankfurter differently.
How do I do it?
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 09, 2025, 12:35 AMWhat's wrong with Lucky You? One of my favorites
Nothing wrong with it, just not my favorite. I have a whole story with that song and yea for someone who casually likes them to throw that track out threw me off.
Basically the story is when the Matrix Reloaded movie soundtrack came out, it featured that song. Which was my chance to hear an entire song from their (at the time) new album that was yet to release. I was so fucking stoked because the first Matrix had MOS so I was like "here we fucking go" and it was not at all what I was expecting. I skipped class to drive all the way downtown to a record store to get it, and on my drive back I got a flat tire. So yeah... lucky me...
As I stated, S/T took time to grow on me but it is my personal favorite, I don't see it as their best album, though, if that makes sense.

Hehe my introduction to Deftones was The Matrix soundtrack!
Hearing My Own Summer at age 8... there are no words.
And then my dad also got me the Reloaded soundtrack and that's also the first time I heard Lucky You

Literally what I have been saying. Best single since Leathers 100%. Well *my favorite* single since Leathers. And it's not particularly close. On reddit the split between Madonna and Mountain seems to be 50/50 , which is kind of surprising to me. That is the beauty of this band though.
We all have different aspects of their sound we gravitate towards because they do so many unique things. It's even kind of funny when you consider the guitar riffs are often just 2-3 notes, yet it's all so layered and just radiating different vibes. This band I swear.....

I noticed that too though. A lot of things about this rollout have been very controlled but almost to a detriment. IDK if the marketing budget is low or what. Maybe they just want to make damn sure nothing gets out other than exactly what they want. After the many fiascos they've endured and we have devoured, I guess I can't blame them.
As yes DefFSho, great vibes here! No arguing and bickering this time around either lol. This is the only place in the world I feel like I can express my excitement for the songs this band can create without people thinking "That dude is weird". Even then I am sure some people get annoyed by my inability to make a concise post lol! I am genuinely sorry about that fwiw.

I'm going with my "theory" lol.. the blue artwork was the "original" artwork, but at the last minute they went back and added departing the body to the album, but already sent the blue artwork to the printers, can't go back now, so they said fuck it and said we'll use that one for the cassettes. And THAT is why the album was 'delayed'.
If you look at the track listing closer you'll see that "I think about you all the time" and motm are taking up two lines each. My guess is whoever the visual artist is didn't catch it.
Even Fantano is gushing over the new single :o

Decent 8 incoming
"Deftones is now streaming what very well may be one of my favorite songs they've ever written, "Milk Of The Madonna". This sounds like something from Saturday Night Wrist written for Koi No Yokan and I am absolutely here for it. If I wasn't already excited about Deftones' upcoming record Private Music – due out August 22 – then I sure as hell am now."

That's good to hear. He liked MMIAM too. He could switch up on album released but it's cool that he's enjoying these new songs. Not that his opinion really matters, I'm not the biggest fan of him these days - but a shit ton of people do value his opinion and maybe they'll garner even more new fans from the ol' mellon.

I'd love to hear what he had to say about it. He'll cover it on the weekly track review video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDnKIryNPgQ&t=27s
I guess it departed from the tracklist ;D
I noticed that too though. A lot of things about this rollout have been very controlled but almost to a detriment. IDK if the marketing budget is low or what. Maybe they just want to make damn sure nothing gets out other than exactly what they want. After the many fiascos they've endured and we have devoured, I guess I can't blame them.
As yes DefFSho, great vibes here! No arguing and bickering this time around either lol. This is the only place in the world I feel like I can express my excitement for the songs this band can create without people thinking "That dude is weird". Even then I am sure some people get annoyed by my inability to make a concise post lol! I am genuinely sorry about that fwiw.
I'm going with my "theory" lol.. the blue artwork was the "original" artwork, but at the last minute they went back and added departing the body to the album, but already sent the blue artwork to the printers, can't go back now, so they said fuck it and said we'll use that one for the cassettes. And THAT is why the album was 'delayed'.
And he admitted something we've already known for 20 years: Chino can't make up his mind about song titles and/or what songs even should or shouldn't be on the album. I can get on board with that theory. And makes sense that cassettes were made first as they probably take longer due to the fact very few cassettes are produced these days. (At least I would think, I could be talking nonsense lol)

Because he's been on YouTube for 10+ years. At the time no one was reviewing music, and Pitchfork was running out of steam - so a lot of people kinda pivoted to Fantano. I used to like his takes for the most part, except for some reason he hates Tool and Deftones lol.. I've stopped watching his content over the last few years. He tends to cover a lot of pop and rap music these days more so than cool indie bands.

Said it kicked ass and that he was really impressed, liked it even more than the last single. He reiterated that he's liked their stuff despite some people thinking that he doesn't/has it in for them. Also brought up quite enjoying SNW.
This was on the new music friday stream.
It's not that he's completely hated on Deftones or anything - it's just when he talks about them, he has this smarmy "too cool" for this attitude in the past.. He's come off a little passive aggressive towards reviewing their music at times but he's had some good things to say about them as well. Bit of a mixed bag when it comes to Fantano x Deftones. Maybe the new album will bring him fully around.

It's just not the same when you've been on this train for DECADES.
It gets very personal and emotional.
100% this. Ive first listened to Deftones when I was 15, 16..Im 43 now. I still, to this day, get very excited about new records dropping. This one is no different. Just bc I didnt like a song, out of 11 or whatever it is, doesnt mean I think the record is going to suck. Who knows? Maybe listening to it with the full thing blasting...might change how I feel about MOTM.
Im glad Im older now, because until I was able to watch them live for the 1st time in '07 (I dont live in the US/Europe, so its harder for us down here to see them live) I was obsessed. After it, things got healthier, lol.

Bump! Dude is some kinda mind reader...
Quote from: RaptureWS on Aug 08, 2025, 08:56 PMJust want to throw my hat in as well. Also been a fan since the '90s. I found them during ATF so this is my 8th album cycle. Deftones album drops are like genuine life events for me. I always at least try to save vacation time so I can focus purely on the album. And as mentioned earlier, it's just such a great feeling to be in my 40s now, but have something that I look forward to that makes me feel like I'm in my 20s. Every single album I have adored. I do not love any other album more than the next (except ATF which will always be my GOAT).
I guess the only thing I cannot relate to is the excitement fading. It has never faded for me. Every single album I feel just excited as I did during my first album drop, watching all the leaks and song names. My entire family knows that every few years, I have about a month where my entire focus is this new album. This was the longest wait ever, but I have a feeling it's going to be worth every moment of it. I don't know how many more times we'll get to do this. For all we know this could be the last. I am so thankful that the band continues to make music. I know they do it for themselves and not for us, but it means everything to me that they are willing to make that music and share it with us.
But yeah I just enjoy the moment and I cannot wait for this thing to drop :) I have multiple CDs ordered, a new shirt ordered, and my digital order so I am ready to rock!
Respect Rapture!

I dont even know. I dont think so. Im really emotiomnal when it comes to 1st impressions/reactions, etc. I dont usually go "meh". Either I love it or I dont. It didnt use to have something in between. Nowdays it happens sometimes. Thank God. All or nothing is really tiring, lol.
The fact that the album comes out at midnight... it's gonna be so special. Like The Polar Express arriving at your door hahaha.
Going for a late night walk to hear it...
I wouldn't listen to the early NZ leak from that day even if you paid me, it would ruin the experience!
So glad this is a short rollout. Couldn't stand a three-month wait for this.
Feels like it's only just been announced yet it's only the week after next that it comes out.

For which album did they leave a 3 month gap between first single and full release?

I don't think Deftones specifically but a lot of bands these days are doing two, three, or four month rollouts.
Six weeks is perfect.
I'm getting impatient for some interviews though.

For me it's Hexagram. I remember buying the cd on release day and just wasn't vibing with Hex. It grew on me within a week. Now it's like top 5 favorite songs. But initially I just wasn't vibing with it at all for some reason.

AND THE CAMERA... MAKES YOU SEASICK!
Tempest sounded a little too radio friendly for me, if you know what I mean
I didn't know about deftones during that time, but Tempest to me is like a filler song, it doesn't do much for me, its got catchy lyrics, but like its a plain song for me. Its the most skippable deftones song for me, its like they tried to do a cinematic song [I know it appeared in fast and the furious] its not bad but its not good either

Nice! Yeah self titled holds a special place in my heart. It was the first new release of their's since becoming a fan. I had turned 16 around the time it came out and had got my license. I skipped school that morning so I could run to the store and buy the album. I drove around with it on repeat. That album left a mark and it was essentially my soundtrack in my mid teens through high school. Hugely influential for me. It's always going to be my personal favorite Deftones album, and one of my favorite albums of all time, period.
Remember Stef saying the old School fans are gonna love this one? And then he goes on with Zane Lowe with the guys and says he hasn't heard the record yet. I'm not sure if he meant he didn't hear Chino on it yet or just the final mix, but I think what he means by it is maybe some old flashes From early on, maybe some sounds but I think he's saying he's playing maybe a six or seven string guitar...Even if a little bit. Not sure what he meant by old-school fans are gonna love it, but I'm hoping that's it or at least one of the reasons. I'm really loving the guitar sound and riffs on milk. Also, my brother mentioned the line about burning the foxes out from the vines being from the Bible? I'm not familiar so I don't know but that just adds more to this song for me...

of course stef has heard a version of the album or at least all the songs individually, but probably not the fully mastered and tracklisted one at that point.

I think it was Chino that said something like "if you've been a fan for a long time, you're going to like this new album." Or something to that effect. Stef said the new album sounded a little like a mix of "Diamond Eyes & Koi No Yokan". But to your point, I gotta assume he meant he hadn't heard the final mix with the song placement that was sent out to production.

The whole basis for the lyrics is the description of Pentecost in the book of Acts from the New Testament. Holy Spirit/Ghost, tongues of fire, a wind coming from above onto the house(s)...first few verses of Acts chapter 2.
And I didn't recognise the bit about foxes and vines but it's in the Old Testament, in Song of Solomon.
Awesome! thanks
I think I'm a bit more concerned about Steph's apparent lack of connectedness to the album than many here... from the one interview we got it seems like he has very little idea about the record or what's on it, and the others seem to be annoyed with him. I know there's always been a tense Chino-Steph dynamic that seems to boil over into the public most album releases... but he seems super distanced from the band now. I'll be seeing the tour kickoff show in Vancouver on August 22nd, and its not even clear to me if Steph will be crossing the border to play the gig? I've seen Deftones many times, and I just can't really picture how the show would feel with only three of the band members present...
Also, I am curious why is there so little promotion for this album? On the one interview so far they spent more time talking about the writing of White Pony and Eros than they did the new album. I don't need to hear about how White Pony was written or what happened with Eros any more, ten, fifteen, twenty years later... But I sure would be interested to know if the band is excited about their new music!
I guess the silver lining is that in knowing so little about Private Music it's going to be a pretty fun total surprise to see what we get... my fingers are crossed for something magical...

Gore was a lot worse on that front. Stephen is just like that. He seemed very please with all the songs in the interview at least, even if he didn't listen to the latest version. I kind of understand his lack of interest when he was done with his part a year and half ago. It really felt like Chino was responsible for how long it took to produce it.
I feel like Steph and Chino were at a good place in that interview. Steph really gave Chino his flowers. Abe seemed more annoyed with Steph's not hearing the album comments. "Check your email" lol
And for the shows, I really don't expect him to be in Montreal. If its Lance, its Lance. I heard he is great live and all I want is for the show to sound great. Unfortunately its at the Bell Center so, it probably won't,
It was Chino that said "If you've been a fan for 30 years then you're going to love it". Stef said it's a continuation of Ohms and Koi.
Ofc Stef has heard the album, I'd say he just hadn't heard the finalised product in that Zane Lowe interview.
And Chino changes the track titles/track listing
I would actually not love if I was in a band, I'd finish my part, all the music is recorded, then the singer takes a year to record his vocals in between shows of side projects, decides everything including song names and songs order, then I got to follow my emails to know what is up. I think it was even worse with SNW where Chino and Shaun Lopez would completely restructure some of the songs, and then include a dumb ad lib about blow jobs and english having bad teeth.
Stef has only been extremely positive about the album every time it's come up on the Dr Greenthumb podcast in the last couple of years. He's continually said it's amazing from start to finish.

Even when they talked about milk of the madonna on last nights episode, Stef said that Chino came up with a lot of cool shit on the album. Vocals and guitars. I don't think i've heard Stef talk so positive about Chinos work.
Record Label was probably pissed that it was delayed so many times and no time
now to promote it.
They definitely should have promoted the second single a little bit. I've noticed a strong lack of reaction/cover videos on YouTube compared to MMIAM. A lot of people don't even know they dropped a second single.
Don't forget this album is "distributed by Deftones" instead of the label. Probably why there's less of a push. Fanbase is gonna listen and pay attention regardless. Plus it's Deftones, they do anything and websites want the clicks. Why pay for ads when sites like metal injection and kerrang will do it for you.
So looking forward to a proper new album feature interview.
I swear, a Deftones album rollout is the closest I get to kid-at-Christmas excitement these days. I want the new toys.

I feel like I am being mean to Chino here, but I think Steph is getting a lot of flack, deservedly so for certain things, but I don't blame him for everything.

So looking forward to a proper new album feature interview.
I swear, a Deftones album rollout is the closest I get to kid-at-Christmas excitement these days. I want the new toys.

Legendary
I'm not sure what I did there to show all the extra bullshit while I responded to LG. Sorry. Anyways, I think I'm more excited for this album than I have been since diamond eyes' roll out. Before that it was EROS. Watching those clips as they came out trying to hear band practice as well as I could. The whole aesthetic to that whole thing had me hard. After that, I'm always excited, but the singles haven't grabbed me like these ones. The eros and diamond eyes excitement just came from not having anything since Saturday night wrist which I loved. And we still had cheng then....And then being curious about what the band would sound like post-Chi was sad but invigorating because of the curiosity. The last records since SNW, didn't quite do it for me like the first ones. Great records though and it's been said 1 billion times that shows how great the band is.
Quote from: buflen on Aug 09, 2025, 09:28 PMQuote from: buflen on Aug 09, 2025, 07:34 PMI would actually not love if I was in a band, I'd finish my part, all the music is recorded, then the singer takes a year to record his vocals in between shows of side projects, decides everything including song names and songs order, then I got to follow my emails to know what is up. I think it was even worse with SNW where Chino and Shaun Lopez would completely restructure some of the songs, and then include a dumb ad lib about blow jobs and english having bad teeth.
I feel like I am being mean to Chino here, but I think Steph is getting a lot of flack, deservedly so for certain things, but I don't blame him for everything.
I agree, sometimes I'm frustrated with Steph's perceived lack of interest, however it makes a lot of sense from his perspective that he's just the axeman and has to wait on the rest of the process.

For me it's Hexagram. I remember buying the cd on release day and just wasn't vibing with Hex. It grew on me within a week. Now it's like top 5 favorite songs. But initially I just wasn't vibing with it at all for some reason.
Same, Hex was jarring on first listen (first thing I heard from the leaked stuff) I think it was the rough edit but even the album version to me sounded so rough and unpolished compared to WP. I vibed with it like a motherfucker though when I saw them play it live in 2003.

Hexagram will always be my fav. I remember downloading it early and burning it so I could take it to school so me and Buddy could listen. We skipped the first two classes sitting in his car just listening to it on repeat *memories*
I remember bumpin mine pulling up to a parking spot at their LA concert on it's release day. Lmao
Beautiful memory. Which venue was that?

Nice! Yeah self titled holds a special place in my heart. It was the first new release of their's since becoming a fan. I had turned 16 around the time it came out and had got my license. I skipped school that morning so I could run to the store and buy the album. I drove around with it on repeat. That album left a mark and it was essentially my soundtrack in my mid teens through high school. Hugely influential for me. It's always going to be my personal favorite Deftones album, and one of my favorite albums of all time, period.
S/T will always be my number two for very similar reasons.
Which one is #1?
Quote from: Doofaes on Aug 09, 2025, 07:04 PMI think I'm a bit more concerned about Steph's apparent lack of connectedness to the album than many here... from the one interview we got it seems like he has very little idea about the record or what's on it, and the others seem to be annoyed with him. I know there's always been a tense Chino-Steph dynamic that seems to boil over into the public most album releases... but he seems super distanced from the band now. I'll be seeing the tour kickoff show in Vancouver on August 22nd, and its not even clear to me if Steph will be crossing the border to play the gig? I've seen Deftones many times, and I just can't really picture how the show would feel with only three of the band members present...
Also, I am curious why is there so little promotion for this album? On the one interview so far they spent more time talking about the writing of White Pony and Eros than they did the new album. I don't need to hear about how White Pony was written or what happened with Eros any more, ten, fifteen, twenty years later... But I sure would be interested to know if the band is excited about their new music!
I guess the silver lining is that in knowing so little about Private Music it's going to be a pretty fun total surprise to see what we get... my fingers are crossed for something magical...
Good commentary...
Quote from: StarSlinger on Aug 09, 2025, 08:09 PMThey definitely should have promoted the second single a little bit. I've noticed a strong lack of reaction/cover videos on YouTube compared to MMIAM. A lot of people don't even know they dropped a second single.
Oh well, you're in luck, I just did a "playthrough" video... just to show how I think Stef's parts are played, I don't know how the clean part is played so I just skipped it... and I messed up a little near the end but it's just an approximation of how I think it's played. I didn't record audio, its just the official track playing.
AOTY incoming
Quote from: sharinglungs on Aug 09, 2025, 08:00 PMEven when they talked about milk of the madonna on last nights episode, Stef said that Chino came up with a lot of cool shit on the album. Vocals and guitars. I don't think i've heard Stef talk so positive about Chinos work.
Concerning news for those that disliked Gore for being a ,,Chino album"
Now I'm starting to wonder if this being the biggest lapse between albums is because of Chino concentrating on vocals more than he ever has. He literally is using effects that he has used before or very close. And being corrected earlier on that, Chino was the one who said old heads, would like this album Makes sense. I think there's a lot of surprise in store for us with guitars and vocals and maybe more. Always more... save the part where you want to say it's taking a long time because they are older and have the money and have the success and maybe that's true but I'm thinking more along the lines of streamlining and getting this album just right. For us old heads. You make the old heads happy you make everybody happy
I hope I'm right because most of you would be happy with that I would think. I know I miss a lot. It's natural.
Man I need this full album badly. Shits gonna be so good

White Pony. My sisters bf at the time gave it to me on my birthday. That album slowly consumed/challenged me and changed how I listened to music...So S/T was my first build up hype of an album release that delivered.
12 days, 4 hours and 17 minutes to go!
Maybe Milk was more of a "quiet" single and will get a 3rd single with a music video?
They truly didn't tease Milk AT ALL, and I don't think it has a music video.
I would love to read more first impressions from the lucky people who were invited to that listening event. But I'm sure they signed something..

Ecdysis coming next week
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 09, 2025, 11:50 PMEcdysis coming next week
honestly i wouldn't be surprised if there was a third single, considering this tweet (https://x.com/beat_release/status/1949542330345852936) that was previously mentioned, has the song title ecdysis in it. the tweet is probably written by a pr team
I'm definitely skipping it if we get a third single next week. Album is too close. I've heard more than enough to keep me satiated until Aug 22nd
Next week we are leaving our old skin behind
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 09, 2025, 11:50 PMEcdysis coming next week
What do you see? Is it because Ecyysis is highlighted in bold on the result from deftones.com webpage? That is really odd, but kind of a neat way of finding out. I wonder if it is intentional.

Really wish we could still hear what was leaked from back then. All I have is a 30 second clips of needles and pins
I like hexagram, but to this day, I just don't know what chino was thinking for the chorus.
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 09, 2025, 11:50 PMEcdysis coming next week
Got a screenshot of that? When I google it on my phone it says metal dream is the third single lol
For me it said I Think About You All the Time. Just AI slop.
AI told me that there was 2 singles out and no new one was yet announced. Good AI.

And the fact that it was mentioned in that PR text... mmm
And also, no music video for Milk?
Makes me think there's definitely a 3rd single coming...
For those of you using Apple Music, has the length of the album gone up from 7 min?

too early, I doubt we're getting anything else before release.
AI told me both Locked Club and Ecdysis will be the third single lol
Anybody feel like this album just sounds so happy? I love what we've gotten so far and this is the best deftones since KNY. This is coming from someone who loved Ohms. This stuff blows it out of the water.

There are too many people on Reddit, it prioritises the new content, and there aren't really enough things to discuss every day. So people essentially make shit up to talk about; and if it can stir up the strongest opinions, the better; hence all the interminable unpopular opinion threads.
Quote from: buflen on Aug 10, 2025, 06:47 PMHonesty I don't mind people sharing these opinions or stories, but they are not worth a thread.
Yeah throwaway comments become threads. Someone isn't keen on the new songs on here, they just say it on this album thread and it probably gets brushed past. On Reddit — 'I DON'T LIKE THE SONGS WHY DIDN'T THEY MAKE SONGS I LIKE YES I NEEDED TO MAKE A WHOLE THREAD ABOUT IT GIVE ME SOME ATTENTION PLEASE'
I hate that reddit twists and turns every crumb of information into a narrative. Every song has to be about specifically something.
I read a comment just straight up claiming ,,Chino said I Think About You All The Time is about Chi." based on the Zane Lowe interview. No, he did not. He did say later on that he thinks about him (Chi) all the time. Possibly as a nod to the song title, yes. But nowhere did he say that the entire song and its lyrics are specifically about Chi.
Chino said that in previous interviews his lyrics are never about something specific. So that probably ain't going to be the case with I Think About You All The Time.
But I can see people already replying to that dude on reddit with ,,Oh that's amazing, I didn't know that!" and it's starting to snowball into factual Deftones lore in the minds of reddit fans...

......................... The two singles sound great and I would actually hope for a music video for milk instead of a third single. And I don't even care for their music videos because I can tell they don't either. Really excited for the record and holding out now for it to pop up in my music stream pre-ordered and get in the mail a couple days later and grab my shit. i'm kind of surprised the booklet didn't sell out that is limited at 5000. That kind of tells me something about the New drove of fans. I have always ordered something special if it was available because I love them. A lot of these freaks love them because everybody loves them if you get what I mean. And I'm not talking about every single one of them, but I would say most of them. Good for the band And good on them for appreciating and welcoming everyone and anyone in. Maynard would probably say some off-the-wall shit out loud to offend people lol... you won't get that from Chino and company

Milk is too catchy to not have a video. One of the recordstores that heard it early mentioned their were a couple radio friendly tracks. Maybe is there is another track that is just a catchy or even moreso than MOTM and the music video budget is for that one? But yeah Deftones only have *one* video I watch semi-regularly, which is Sextape. Not because of the two young girls either lol. It's just vibrant and colorful and matches the vibe of the song perfectly.

I've realistically listened to milk of the Madonna at least 75-100 times by now. It's so damn good
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 11, 2025, 02:19 AMHas anyone in here successfully resisted listening to Milk of the Madonna?
Yup. I listened to the intro but then cut it off as soon as Chino's vocals came on.
I've given it about 10 solid plays. Absolutely love the track. But I'm trying to cool off on it a bit. If I stop listening to it now, then it'll still feel fresh when the album drops.
Still got MOTM stuck in my head three days later.
Wonder if we'll get some interviews this week.

I have to admit, my initial euphoria has definitely receded... I still think the track is great, but now I hear it with a critical approach and I get that some people find it a bit "generic"... like, I'm starting to see where they may be coming from (hint: it may have to do with the drums)
Catchy=/=generic. I'll be damned if I hear those drums on the radio
Yeah I was about to say...people are still calling big hooks 'radio-friendly'.
We should start to see reviews of the album this week I would have thought.
I think — I might be wrong — there's an embargo for reviews until next week.

I'm not 100% on it — I rarely read reviews and there are possibly some variable rules — but I think in general publications these days can't put out a review until the week of release.

Yup. I listened to the intro but then cut it off as soon as Chino's vocals came on.
Holy shit!!!!! Can't believe that...
Seriously, has it taken a lot of discipline?
Ten years ago I would have easily folded and listened. But now that I'm a bit older, holding out is easier. Also there's a couple albums of theirs where I heard too much in advance and that can dampen the first listen. So this time I wanted to hear as little as possible because I know getting ten new Deftones songs in one shot is going to be an amazing experience.
Fantano praised Milk of the Madonna. That's two best track singles from him in a row. Can't wait for the 4/10 rating! Haha
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 11, 2025, 07:33 AMQuote from: gavinkfox on Aug 11, 2025, 03:49 AMI've realistically listened to milk of the Madonna at least 75-100 times by now. It's so damn good
🤣🤣🤣
I have to admit, my initial euphoria has definitely receded... I still think the track is great, but now I hear it with a critical approach and I get that some people find it a bit "generic"... like, I'm starting to see where they may be coming from (hint: it may have to do with the drums)
I feel like both songs are missing something. I still think they are catchy, and I still think Chino finding melody in some of these riffs is a superhuman trait he has.
There's not a lot of nuance to either. It's just a wall of distortion. I hope they let some of the other 9 tracks breathe a bit.
Nothing weird creepy or sexy about these two songs, in my opinion.
Love this band, don't get me wrong. Can't wait to hear the other nine tracks.
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 11, 2025, 02:19 AMHas anyone in here successfully resisted listening to Milk of the Madonna?
I haven't listened to either single. I've been a fan since Adrenaline. Ever since discovering them, I've heard songs from the upcoming albums early. There have been a few cases over the years that I wish I hadn't heard a single prior to the album so this time I promised myself I wouldn't. I want to just hear them in the context of the album for the first time since listening to their first album. Younger me would have caved in by now. Older me is enjoying the anticipation, as days go by fast and I'm just enjoying this moment of looking forward to a new deftones album. It's the closest thing I have to capturing the child like feeling of looking forward to Christmas.
My problem is I get the new songs stuck in my head. So even though I've only given them a few listens, it feels like I've heard them 100 times because they just loop in my head constantly. Especially drum grooves. I've had the Madonna drum groove stuck in my head for 2 days.
That being said, I look at it from a different perspective. I'll be listening to these albums for decades, so it doesn't really affect me whether I hear the songs before the album or not. I still jam MOS or Change and they still hit the same as they did 20 years ago.
I'm asking about the milk of Madonna- ha he seen a solder light himself on fire on a video?
Love the "from above" and "from below" in separate verses. This song took a little more thought when writing the lyrics then I have personally heard in a long time or picked up on anyways. Again, if this is a peek into what the album has as far as depth and creativity, I'm going to love it. Heaven and hell

For me it's Hexagram. I remember buying the cd on release day and just wasn't vibing with Hex. It grew on me within a week. Now it's like top 5 favorite songs. But initially I just wasn't vibing with it at all for some reason.
Hexagram will always be my fav. I remember downloading it early and burning it so I could take it to school so me and Buddy could listen. We skipped the first two classes sitting in his car just listening to it on repeat *memories*
I remember bumpin mine pulling up to a parking spot at their LA concert on it's release day. Lmao
Beautiful memory. Which venue was that?
The Roxy
Amazon has now officially added a the tracks to the album page instead of Just the singles and posted the album run time. Not sure if it means anything, maybe we'll get some social media posts this week

So it's getting that kind of buzz. Interesting. That makes me think it could be overall album of the year level quality. Not that it matters because it'll be my AOTY regardless but that's awesome
Gotta feeling this might be an instant classic of an album. Nick just knows how to bring the Deftones sound out front and center. Don't wanna get too ahead of myself, but listening to both MMIAM and MOTM nonstop I can't get enough of em.

Do you guys agree that there hasn't been a hype like this for a new album since Koi came out? (Maybe even Diamond Eyes)

Ohms was highly anticipated. The pandemic played a big part in that but Private Music definitely has a different larger feel about it. It really does feel like a big event in the music world.

Agreed. I think the hype from the regulars feels the same. The only thing that feels different is the amount of people that are currently hype for it. This is the first album anticipation for their new legion of younger fans. My son and I have a tradition of listening to the new album together as soon as it releases and this year my younger daughter is joining us. All of her friends are hype. It's a beautiful thing to experience.

The hype for this new album is through the roof - but that's par for the course when it comes to any and every new Deftones album around here. But their fanbase is arguably larger than it's been in a long time, so by that logic this would be the biggest hype for a new album from them, since probably White Pony or Diamond Eyes era?
the hype has always been there, it feels a little different now due to the current *new* success the band are having at this stage in their careers, I'm all for it, they are selling out huge venues, the new material sounds amazing, roll on 22nd August!
My favorite album is ATF.
My least favorite is Adrenaline.
The other seven albums are all equal to me. Yes, that even means on some days I might like Gore better than self-titled or White Pony. It's just how it is. I love everything they do.
With that said, I've had a suspicion that private music might just grab that number two spot. I don't know why. I've never had this feeling before. I sure hope I'm right. And if not, new Deftones is still a new Deftones and it's always fucking extraordinary.
I read through the ohms stuff awhile ago and it seemed super hyped, im wondering is there gonna be a arg like Ohms did with the cards? Or is it just gonna drop
Hello guys, for those that still want the box with the jacket you can get it here https://store.warnermusic.ca/products/private-music-vinyl-box-set I just got mine and can't wait for it. Thanks Canada store!

Hi all, I'm a long time lurker and not a first time poster (I used to have an account at Ohms era, but I am not able to reset the password, anyway)
I'm really looking forward to hear some stuff close to Spell of Mathematics or Headless, two of my favorite Ohms songs. I'm curious to see if the band will still bet on experimental aspects or follow a more straight-forward approach like in MMIAM and MOTM. So far, I've listened more to MMIAM than MOTM, which is kinda a skippable song for me - let's see in the context of the entire album though
Easily my two favorite songs off Ohms. They're very special.

I just know that I'm excited and that's all that really matters to me. And I know the band will make out, which is also important to all of us whether you know it or not. We do want them to go on and create more music don't we?
I hope they release a few more albums after private music
I only have Diamond Eyes, Ohms, and Gore on vinyl rn. Gonna get private music and kny later this year
Do you not like the first 5 as much?
10 albums is insane for any band. I'll gladly take more, but I'd be okay if this was it too.
Oh shit me too! We've been blessed. The band has been blessed. They made just enough money to not cross that weird line where they become fucking weirdos. Like Mtllc........a

Taken from Reddit:
"Abe interview about Eros, Private Music and more is coming on 20.08 at the Moshpit Passion YT-Channel"
"Abe we know you have a new album coming out but can we talk about the lost album and your deceased bassist for the hundredth time?"
The problem is they themselves have hinted at the possibility of releasing it, many times.
I remember Abe saying that they were talking about releasing it as an EP not that long ago.
It's the band that keeps the Eros fire burning.
If they're not releasing it, why not just firmly announce it?
Dude clearly needs clicks for his lame ass podcast. Probably works for metal injection or lambgoat ;)
Daniel P Carter posted a story on ig showing him interviewing chino. Looks like a media blowout next week
He did mention on Monday night that they were going to do a start-to-finish play of the new album on his show in the next few weeks, spliced with an interview with Chino.
It's so weird that all the interviews are coming out either Wednesday Thursday or Friday
I hope we get some long form interviews on some podcasts. Chino did several podcasts during Ohms, so I hope that happens again.
As long as deftones is not fully official about never releasing Eros, people will ask about it. It's deftones music that exists that no one ever heard, especially with Chi on it, it's obvious people want to hear it. I am pretty sure it will never happen so for me it's really useless to ask them about it.
I wish they could release Smile and Melanie if studio versions of both songs exist.
Melanie is one hell of a song and smile is a banger.

eventually get Eros. Probably after the band calls it quits and retires. Some anniversary thing or a thank you to the fans. Either way, I do think we will inevitably hear the album in some form or another. I just don't think it will happen as long as the band is ACTIVELY making new music. Maybe not as soon as we'd like, but I think it will happen at some point.

Remember that Chino still need to finalize vocals and he really doesn't seem to enjoy the music on it. I don't think they will ever release unfinished songs while Chino is still alive.

The only version of Smile IS the studio version.
I could see them possibly reworking the ideas for later output, but yeah I don't think we ever will (or even should) get it as it is. I wouldn't ask that of the band anyway considering the circumstances.

This is pretty much my stance too.
The only other thing I could imagine happening is quite unrealistic. End of career box set, and one of the albums is clearly stated that it's unfinished and not to be viewed as an album....... But give us at least some of the songs that may have vocals and some instrumental tracks. Give a portion of the proceeds from the box set to Chi's family. Deftones really are not the type of band to do anything like that though (probably put music out there that is unfinished). I just think it would be really cool for the fans to hear Chi's final work with Deftones. Ultimately though it is not our call to make so I will respect whatever the band decides. In the meantime I don't really even talk about it much.

I just need Dallas as a studio recording with vocals because damn
The latest info on Eros we have is that Terry Date went and finished mixing the album, if they want to come back and finish what they started, it's there for them.
Feel like if Eros ever sees the light of day it will be as it stands right now. Don't think they will add anything.
Just a snapshot in time with Chi
Based on what's been said by deftones over the years, the chances of eros being released are very low.
Chino Moreno has mentioned several times that the material exists, but that it feels "stuck in time" and doesn't represent the band as they are today. The recordings were made shortly before Chi Cheng's accident, which carries a heavy emotional weight. Releasing the album could reopen old wounds for them. They've also said that while some songs turned out good, the album as a whole wasn't finished and might not sound like something they'd want to officially put their name on. Bands rarely release material like this unless there's a special reason (anniversary, box set, tribute). Yah,maybe on an anniversary or special occasion. The band could decide to mark 20 or 25 years since the start of the Eros recording sessions (2008) with a box set or commemorative edition which means 2028 would mark exactly 20 years since they began recording it.
Let me be clear, I'm not saying we're definitely going to get it. But I think anything can happen, and never say never. Am I sitting around waiting on it no? But I never thought RATM would reunite, and they did. There was a while where I didn't think we'd ever get another Tool album. There was a time where I didn't think Final Fantasy 7 Remake would actually happen after waiting for like 13 years. I never thought my favorite manga/anime Bleach would get its final arc animated and it happened after 10 years. Just saying, it's not an impossibility, it's very unlikely. But who knows where their heads are at in another 10-15 years. I lean more towards we will eventually get it but it won't be for a LONG time from now, probably once the band decides to retire.
I waited around every day for those video clips to come out during that era and I'm not afraid to say I still want it and I can't wait to hear it. It definitely will be released one day probably as is when they are all done. They know how bad people want it and that is why There's no reason to not release it. As long as they are still making new music, it will sit. But we will get it one day just not now.
I'd happily settle for a B-Sides and Rarities 2 with Melanie, Smile and Dallas as the only Eros songs on it.

20,880 more hours
I still think that the " i've got a secret" before hole in the Earth has not been revealed yet. I have a feeling anyways that it might be something on the album. I know it's a long stretch, but I haven't seen anything concrete other than the reveal of the album title. But we all knew that was coming anyways, so it's not really a secret and never really was because we knew a record was coming out that was unnamed. The fact that he did it multiple times throughout the shows in Europe.... I hope there's something in store for us along those lines. And we live to dream.
Oh and why before hole in the Earth only? It's not like they are forced to fit some format in any way.

Technically you're right. Those were pre-existing photos that he used and had to get cleared by the photographer. What I meant was for Private Music, I believe he actually shot the snake himself and also did the graphic design work.

Kenneth Capello took the snake picture, I just proved it to you.
The instagram came from someone that worked on the album so them getting it now means nothing about a possible leak early.
Yeah, highly doubt this pro photographer is going to leak the album. But the implication is there are physical copies out in the wild, being sent to certain people. I doubt he's the only person that got a copy a week early.

For me this song is on par with Change when it comes to Deftones' mainstream hit.
I can't believe they are sleeping on this beauty.

Melanie is one hell of a song and smile is a banger.
The only version of Smile IS the studio version.
I know, but it needs polishing (mix and mastering).

Yeah Smile is incredible. I remember hearing it when Chino put it out on Chi's birthday just to have Warner bros take it down. It completely consumed me and I played it nonstop for a week. It has the same kind of atmosphere as Cherry Waves and Entombed. I really hope we get a mastered official release of it one day.

I would honestly feel bad for listening to it but i did pay them $80 for it
I ordered the jacket combo w/ vinyl, a separate green vinyl variant, AND a cd. Not to mention the shirts and hoodie I bought earlier this year at the concert, on top of the countless other Deftones vinyls and merch I've collected over the years. They've got my money lol
Same can't wait for it to arrive :) Had to get mine from Canada lol

This is it guys... the final stretch.
I remember being here last year with absolutely ZERO information...
7 days, 9 hours and 25 minutes if you live in NZ.
8AM EDT August 21st.
We know as soon as it's 12am in NZ, everyone will be able to listen to it if they want to.
we'll see something by Monday folks
It's going to be a long weekend and an even looonger week
Just think to yourself that the album is going to be the biggest disappointment of your life, and you really want to push back this painful experience the furthest possible but at one point you'll have to deal with it. Time will go faster.
Genuinely surprised that no other interviews have dropped yet.
Im ok if they decide to never release Eros. Would I like it? Absolutely! Do I want it? YES, but I imagine revisiting those memories and all that, even after many years must be difficult. And reliving all that stuff to "make fans happy"? I dont see it.
Maybe they might do it to close the door on it, idk... I just dont see it happening. Maybe some years after they hang the instruments. Think about this: its literally math. Theres a 50-50 chance (some) fans hate it. Why going tru all that bad shit again while also risking people shitting all over it online. Would you want to link all that history with one of your best friends, who passed away in a tragic way, to people being a-holes bc they didnt like what they heard? I wouldnt touch that shit if I were in the band. What we got is enough for me.
Thats just me though.
About Private Music: its 8 more days. We waited all this time... no way Im gonna listen to leaks. I've done it before.
Pass.
Curious to see which new songs they'll play in Vancouver... Maybe just the singles?
deftones is super far into their careers and they know the fans want to hear specific songs. They are not the type of band that fills their set list with new songs, so yea, I would expect only about 3 new songs.
I'd only expect the 2 singles given their recent track record when it comes to the set lists. The downside of having 10 albums, you have to please everyone somehow. Many are seeing them for the first time so you have to play the hits, maybe a couple deep cuts for the hardcore fans, that only leaves room for 2 maybe 3 new songs.
If they do a Private Music tour, then I could see them doing more of the new stuff.
Quote from: supercollider37 on Aug 14, 2025, 02:55 PMCurious to see which new songs they'll play in Vancouver... Maybe just the singles?
I agree with what buflen said below. But they do need to play MOTM live. Honestly I think it should become a staple of their live sets. It's a very high energy song, but the notes are not out of Chino's range. It's literally the perfect life song for this stage of their career. I guess the big thing will be if the crowd gets into it or not. It's a crowd is noticeably dead during that track versus the rest of their sets, they may not keep it in the rotation long. But yeah very curious to see what new cellist will look like!
Go listen to the new Chevelle album, that can help pass some time
They gave us Lovers last year. I'm still in shock over that one.
I guess the interviews will be arriving at the same time as the reviews next week.

Oh damn, I remember that... I just don't have any will power when it comes to listening to new Deftones. Respect to those who wait and resist the temptation. I wish I could experience just one album of theirs complete from start to finish, with no spoilers.
I honesly draw the line at 30 seconds sample. I am not ruining my first listen experience for parts of songs without context.
I know everyone is still hyped with MOTM at the moment, but I'm still vibing with MMIAM. The 1:22 mark where the chugging gets on the low end just gets my head nodding every time. Is it just me? I don't much about playing guitar but I guess he's chugging on the lower strings? It just sounds so good to my ears.
MMIAM couldn't have come at a better time for me in my life. I have went through the worst time in my life mentally this summer. I was in such a bad mental state that I was afraid Deftones would release the album or singles while I was going through it, and I didn't want to experience it that way. My mind and body began to heal when MMIAM released and it's so synchronous and uplifting to my situation. It's now my theme song for overcoming my own thoughts and mental state.
I fucking love you Deftones

Not just you. I picked up on that part and I love it.
My final take on how Stef plays the song.
I can't wait for tomorrow so he can show me how wrong I'm playing it....*manifesting it*
My favorite part of MMIAM is Frank's keys during the chorus.
That might be mine too.
On MotM I love how Chino inverts his vocal delivery between the first and second part of the verses. So cool.

Exactly 6 days until New Zealand release!
I'll spend the next few days in the wood, so if it leaks. i'll probably miss it. I could download on my cell with data but eh, I think i'll just wait.
I've never known a Deftones album cycle where a week away from release there's only been one published interview in connection with it.
Yea there were barely any promotion for it at all, I think they expect the new tiktok emergence to give enough free advertisement and they might be right.
I think they'll have a big push next week leading up to it. I'm guessing interviews will come out alongside the review embargo. We'll probably also get more interviews post-album launch, once people have listened to the album.

I remember my brother found Gore on the shelf at a local Target about a week before the release date. He went to buy it and the register wouldn't ring it up because it wasn't allowed to be sold until the release date. Cashier wouldn't even let it slide. It was a bummer.
But yeah, this happens.

As soon as we start seeing pictures of everyday people with the album in their hand outside of a record store, that will be Defcon 1 :D.
I'm glad I ordered one of each color cd. They look so pretty next to each other.......
I js want to see a vinyl so I can see how big the line are for a song, weird ik but I really wanna see that

Yeah, just the overall vibe I've got so far from this rollout is that they are very excited to share this album with us. I think we're in for an incredible experience. I don't want to get my hopes up too high, but I have a feeling this album is going to be a cut above the rest.
I can't wait to fully hear the album. I need it now!!!
Patience is a virtue
The Tijuana record store confirmed that they have it for sale today
This leak (if coming from Mexico) might possibly be more wild than the Tool "Fear Inoculum" leak from 2019 on Reddit. Was anyone around for that?
If it's the best record since Saturday night wrist, I will be 100% satisfied. The last four were my least favorite outside of adrenaline, which is my second least favorite behind Gore. I don't have a Best. It's Saturday or self titled. Depends on the day but yeah if this record is the best one since Saturday night wrist, I will be happy.

What happened in Vegas did not stay in Vegas ;D
I'm all about some border crossing stories to get us new Deftones as long as no one is getting in trouble. If it's fun and everyone is legal to pass borders, then fuck yeah! That would be a WILD way for this to end lol.
But yeah if a record store is literally selling it.....then surely this weekend sometime.

I like and could remember a total of 1 song on that album. Pneuma.

I liked it when it came out but it hasn't aged well for me. Though I still think Pneuma is one of the best songs they've ever written.

Happy early birthday friendo! I say there's a pretty solid chance you'll be jamming the new album tomorrow.
I really appreciate it. Yeah I'll be 40 tomorrow and Deftones have been a constant in my life for so long and experiencing this album will be very special.
Seen a JB Hi Fi worker (Australian retail) with the CD so that's another place it's in the wild then.
I vaguely remember Ohms leaked maybe a day or two early? This one seems to be out and about sooner.
In terms of first listen I'd like to go for a nice walk/run to it.
Two more hours.
I have two friend in Tijuana, I'll try to see if they can buy the cd for me.

Pneuma's fine, but it's still just them thinly stretching out earlier better songs like Schism and The Patient.
As hard as it tries to disguise itself as meditative and epic, the whole album is woefully insubstantial. All the same tricks over and over again. No hooks, nor any genuinely captivating contemplative trips like Reflection.
A quite unbelievably boring record.

If they can get there and buy it before the store closes... we'll all be their friends forever.
Quote from: kurtone on Aug 15, 2025, 10:30 PMSo what's everybody's plan for the first listen, whether leak or official release? Smoke, drink, both? Headphones, sound system?
I'll just dim the lights and smoke a bowl. Probably listen through my Apple TV and soundbar.
I'll put on my LED's to match the albums color and turn on my ps5 go to Spotify and listen to it, maybe worh headphones maybe not

Another reason this album is feeling special to me is the cover has an albino snake and I have albinism. White hair, pale skin. I love seeing it in nature even though it's given me a tough life. I feel like Private Music will connect with me on a more personal level.

What was even funnier, was that it was a vinyl rip, and Acid Hologram had a vinyl spin back at the end of the track that people thought was from the guy who ripped it lol.
The man. The myth. The legend.
only so many times in your life one of your favorite bands has a new album cycle at all, so when a leak is imminent, bad or not, gotta cherish it.
especially since its rarer these days, alot of artists seem to have shit locked down compared to years back. some just leak like clockwork it seems though!

A loooong time.. 10 years at least.
I have so many preorders from vinyl to cassette to cds. I've overspent but I don't care. This band has always deserved my money. They've earned it.
Anyone else playing through their discography while we wait? I'm finishing WP and on to Self Titled.
Sactown original fan from early 2000's. Linkin Park roped me in around the 5th/6th grade, then found out about Deftones and my mind was blown that they were from my city. S/T was first album cycle that I was hyped about.i remember playing Minerva over,over, and over. Have met each band member independently around town, and have a hilarious story of seeing Chino in the S/T era go into Zumiez at Arden Fair Mall to buy shoes and dude was so paranoid about people noticing him. He was high as shit (now we know it was meth) and he was acting like everyone in the store was getting ready to bombard him for autographs and pics lmao. I'm talking hat pulled down, jacket collar up, and just moving extremely sketchily. I just hope this album fits in the DE/KNY quality tier and not Ohms/Gore tier.

Felt like going back to KNY was most enjoyable, almost forgot how much I enjoy that album. Unfortunately Gore continues to grow off me but acid and hearts/wires grew on me a little so there's that.
I've had to palette cleanse the last week or so tho as I don't wanna burn out on deftones (as hard as that is)

I really like Gore, though its probably my least favorite Deftones album. There's still a lot of songs on there that I love like Geometric Headress and Acid Hologram among otheres. I'm just not a fan of the production like many have stated.
I'm replaying Gore rn, and ohms.
Oh no, the yakuza got to the Tijuana record store owner.
I'm not playing anything. I want to go in FRESH
I've mostly been going through different songs just to compare the production and mixing. I've come to the conclusion that Private Music from the 2 singles at least is perfectly dialed in and shows off every element of the band. It's similar to KNY but the way Chino sits in the middle really adds to the sound..his voice is used as another instrument. It needs to be heard through a proper speaker setup or studio quality headphones to really appreciate the dynamics
I replayed Ohms and Koi. Enjoyed them a lot more than I had in awhile after taking a long break from them. But beyond that I've had MMIAM and MOTM on constant repeat lol

I do wish his vocals were a little louder in the mix, but I don't hate the way it is at all. I'm a huge fan of shoegaze music like Slowdive, MBV etc.. so I enjoy that style of production. It's already grown on me with the two singles. Its more so just out of curiosity that I would like to hear a version with his vocals a bit louder.

I totally get that because the mixing is definitely a shoegaze style. It sort of reminds of Sunbather by Deafheaven. A wall of sound and distortion but the clarity is there you just have to pay attention lol
I can feel it coming... its in the air.
Record is pre ordered and paid off.
Have a feeling this one is gonna be special.
Always love seeing everyone when the albums about to hit. Nostalgic
2am here. I fell asleep for an hour or two, refreshed the page and there were five more pages including a Tokyo appearance.
Take it in. These anticipatory moments for new Deftones music are special.
I think it may be a little longer... the store in Tijuana was definitely reprimanded by the label...

It leaked.
Did the Tijuana store actually get reprimanded yet?
Inbox me plis
I'm trying to remember the time scale for Gore leaking.
I think it was the Saturday before that someone started passing round two or three songs from a poor vinyl rip on here; by the Sunday morning it was the whole album. I think I remember listening to it early afternoon UK time.

ive paid my dues. Let it in
Someone has it for sure. Spoil us!

The Link Is Dead
I say that only people with at least 1,293 posts should be trusted with a leak.
this link is dead
Are we all getting riled up or does someone genuinely have it?
I think it was a false alarm
I think we are at the finish line
no one has it yet.. maybe soon?
Hopefully soon for sure
I give it..... 2 more hours

We will see , but something tells me this one is going to be different
Ves curious what you thought of first two singles?
I need to hear it.
Love how alive this place is right before an album. ❤️
Quote from: ghettovaquero on Aug 16, 2025, 01:37 AMVes curious what you thought of first two singles?
The first one honestly didn't grab my attention like I hoped it would but it grew on me specially the chorus, the mix is weird but I loved how massive stephs guitar sounds. The second one was more engaging and my curiosity got the best of me. im hoping for something massive out of the other songs.
Quote from: ghettovaquero on Aug 16, 2025, 01:29 AMim a veteran of the OG Deftones message and teamsleep.net message boards
Me too. I miss the homies
1st single was great. Loved the vibe and atmosphere, but the 2nd single completely caught me off guard. Has been on repeat since it dropped
i was 16 back then, 38 now
Really looking forward to the closer.

His first few posts kind of annoyed me. But then I realized I was the exact same kid back in chat rooms and message boards talking about Deftones when I was his age. I'm glad he found his way to us :)

Yep. They always deliver.
I'm just so thankful we all get to experience another album release. I try not to take any of these for granted. I remember my mom buying me self titled on release day from Best Buy and I was so pissed the album was overshadowed by Staind's 14 Shades of Gray. ;D

I can see the kid being a lifer on here like us old heads
I'm so thankful they continue to give us new music. They really are the best band on the planet.. their track record is unimpeachable.. They have never let me down once, and I already know they won't be letting me down with Private Music. I can tell they are excited and proud of what they've made. I can't fucking wait to hear it.

Well said couldn't agree more
There's no feeling quite like this. This will be my 8th time waiting on new Deftones to leak. My favorite band ever. Well, my favorite anything ever other than my family.
The anticipation of wondering if it's going to come out in a few minutes, or maybe a few more days. It's hard to focus on anything else, but I love it.
No idea how many more times we will get this feeling. I was 16 when WP dropped. During the weeks leading up, I drew the new logo, alternate album covers, and my school notebooks had the song titles (even the leaked ones that ended up being changed. Knife Prty at the Niko should have stayed as the name)
Here I am now, at 41 years old. I'm literally just as excited as I was when I was 16. I have been for every single album cycle, like so many of you. This is the only place in the entire internet I feel like I can say these things without people thinking I'm a complete lunatic. I know my posts are long and I am very sorry. But luckily people can just scroll past it ;D
It is awesome to be here with all of you while we wait.

Well said! I feel ya. I'm 38 here, and as I get older it sucks that we get less excited for things - but new Deftones is the last thing that still gets me excited like a little kid on Christmas Eve. I've got friends that like Deftones, but no one is hyper-fixated on them like I've been for 25 years.. They were my favorite band when I first heard them when I was like 14 and they've remained my favorite band the entire time. And thank god they don't suck lmao I guess I had really good taste for a 14 year old because its really paid off being on this ride for year after year, album after album

Ditto man. This place is dead until album time but it's so much fun being on here reading everyone's connection to the band. Appreciate everyone on here both old and new. Always enjoy taking the ride with everyone!
Most sane place on the internet tbh

Dude it really might be
this link is dead. where is it?
Reddit is dead.. last I checked there was like 20 people on the subreddit.. They're all probably lurking SL as we speak
9:03 Central time here in Texas
I'm losing steam...anyone have any updates?
This is the place to be.
Btw I've been coming to SL for probably over 15-20 years. Way back in the deftones world days. This account is newer but I consider this place the center for legitimate fans. Love you guys
Quote from: funksk8er on Aug 16, 2025, 02:03 AMI'm losing steam...anyone have any updates?
Its always darkest before the dawn. Someone had physical copies in their hands a few hours ago. It's inevitable at this point. But I agree, I'm no spring chicken anymore, and staying up til 1am waiting for a drop is harder to do than it was even 5 years ago lol
Excited for what awaits us, friends.
I've been off the Deftones hype train a bit, but that just makes it feel fresh to jump back in-- t-minus one weak till release!
My question is, will those people who have the physical copies know how to copy and upload it?
Quote from: KLaUThiO on Aug 16, 2025, 02:06 AMMy question is, will those people who have the physical copies know how to copy and upload it?
Espero que si
Been here since self titled days. Probably b my favorite era of the band still. Such a dark album. So moody and atmospheric. The leak of SNW was prob my favorite leak. Will never forget I burned it to a cd and me and my friend went riding around blasting the album. When the "youuuu" in Cherry waves kicked in, we looked at each other and lost it. Loved it.

I don't want to speak for anyone, but I believe SL was in contact with someone that had a copy. A user on this board.. but there have been no further updates since. So its just a waiting game at this point. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but that was the read I had on the situation from an hour or two ago.
Sharing lungs went totally gay today. Y'all are gay. I'm the biggest fan. I want Chino's pants. I've been to 40 shows. I've been lurking here for 46 years. I love it.

Yeah that's all we got so far.
Tomorrow for sure.
this is fun
I'm losing steam but all I need is a little tid bit to reel me back in. Do ya'll remember when one of the albums leaked, I think it was maybe KNY? It started with like one or two songs at a time and it was like pulling teeth to get them to just leak the full album
How I miss IRC...

Yooo he made it! Cross your fingers. Things are quiet right now but hope isn't lost.. yet
I feel like i should listen to the leaks BUTTTTT I DID PAY 76 DOLLARS
Damn I'm getting that nostalgic warm fuzzy feeling, like the night of the modern warfare midnight release
The band ; ;D D always mentions the songs not being fixed to a certain time. The only thing that can be fixed to a certain time is Chino's lyrics am I wrong? I feel like I hear that all the time from him since diamond eyes. Of course, the lyrics are the only thing that will sound like they are dated. But when you only mention waves and shit. Give us some good shit guys.

I really wonder what the band members think of this place lol.
For what it's worth, it's just all about the music. If I saw a member walking down the street I don't even think I'd approach them. If I did it would be a quick "Hey man, thanks for the kickass tunes". I couldn't even ask for an autograph. I met Steph, Abe and Chi back on the SNW tour so that was cool. I do very much enjoy telling people how many concerts I have been to and how long I have been a fan lol. It's just a passion though. I don't think I am a "cooler" or more "hardcore" fan than anyone else. I just know their music has been the soundtrack to my life and I appreciate their music more than any words can articulate.
Sorry we turned gay. You are still cool though :)

I know right? Despite all the tech I have in my house, I wouldn't be able to rip a cd if I wanted to.
In other words...could that be the hold up??
id take a shitty cell phone recording at this point

Could be.. or maybe the album is so good they can't stop listening to it so they can rip it.
I would have strictly sold the cassettes early if I was the store owner, just to be a troll 🤣

About 4 hrs ago give or take, someone posted a pic of the vinyl and cd in their hands. User SharingLungs was (I presume) in contact with them. That's the last we've heard. We're just kinda waiting at the moment. No further updates..

It's a combination of both. Also people get scared they'll get caught or thrown in jail. Some people have a conscience and don't want to leak because it's morally wrong. It really just has to be the right person that gets a copy that doesn't give a shit, has a vpn, and can rip it..

Just one Track!!
I was fully prepared to wait until the 22nd but all this talk of leaks has me frustrated bahaha
Hate waiting once you know it's in the wild. It's so frustrating lol
I swear I'm losing it ;D
Someone definitely has it and is keeping it for themselves!!!
Same.
I was fine waiting, and now suddenly I'm Dave Chappelle crackhead meme.
If someone can send me the link plz when it comes and I'll pay it forward.
Already getting the vinyl
Yeah this place lit up like tongues of fire against the night. This is going to be quite the weekend. Either amazing with new Deftones, or kind of hilarious watching a bunch of dudes in their late 30s to late 40s crash out like their favorite K-Pop band disbanded. Me included lol!
Also for reference, the Ohms thread was on page 120 while Ohms was....... being prepared. Nothing yet for Private Music and page 192. The hype is real. Yeah, Deftones are more popular these days, but I don't think that would account for a 60% increase in posts prior to release in our little corner of the internet. Good times!
Glad I just got a nights worth of sleep lol.
I wont mind if we have to wait till friday, its so close now anyway.
gib album pls
I have high hopes for ITAYATT. I need a good break up song right now
Just five more days until it releases in NZ. Very nearly there, guys.
Be kinda funny if after the night's hype there's no leak this weekend.
I'm glad it hasn't leaked yet, I would be bummed for them if it leaked a weak early. I honestly hope it doesn't leak at least until after the early screenings next week
I know that's kind of a lame take here but it's only 6 days, after 5 years of waiting.
Still nothing.. I'm honestly impressed. Bunch of random citizens get their hands on physical copies this early and it doesn't immediately leak - that almost never happens.
Lol, got my night's sleep now too. Im shocked we have nothing
Quote from: Bungertones on Aug 16, 2025, 12:11 PMLol, got my night's sleep now too. Im shocked we have nothing
Yeah, I kinda feel like if it hasn't leaked by now then it's probably not going to. It's still possible but feels more unlikely.
I don't think it's surprising at all that the albums not leaked.
I mean it's pretty limited who nowadays has the means to rip CD or vinyl. Laptops rarely even have CD-drives anymore and so on. Then add to that who of those few people have the desire to share / leak it.

Nah they look legit to me. It's as Sunbath said.. a confluence of things all have to happen for a leak to occur. Need the right person willing to do it and they gotta have a cd drive or burner in their pc or laptop (which is all the more rare these days).

Like 2 or 3 but I seriously doubt everyone that bought an album jumped on social media to tell everyone. I probably wouldn't if I knew it wasn't supposed to be for sale until next Friday.
I feel like a lot of leaks are shadow dropped, if I'm not mistaken. It will be from an unknown source I feel like.

When it comes to like 99% of new albums, yeah. But with this band, almost none of their albums have been shadow dropped. It always goes down exactly how it did last night except we usually end up with a leak by the end of it lol
Truthfully this is the first upcoming album I've followed for them haha. I've been a fan since Gore but I never really was in the forums or reddit at all.
Been here for the leaks since SNW. This forum usually gets them first somehow lol

Ahhh ok. It's exciting for sure! We're all just huge fans and just can't wait to hear the album. A part of me feels bad for wanting a leak. I selfishly wish there was a way we could all share a leak without it getting out to the greater world wide webs.
I've been a part of each album cycle on this site since SNW. Each time we're waiting on a leak, it's been a little different but for the most part we end up getting it first and it's usually some random guy gets a copy and rips it for us. Similar to what we thought was going to happen last night lol
Guys, seriously... chill.
It's only 5 days, 14 hours and 34 minutes
until the official full quality release (I'm not counting the New Zealand release because who knows how the quality would be for that leak).
The album is so close in it's full glory, why ruin it now?

Been lurking and wasn't even sure I had an account on here after... but with Ohms, at least one of the first leaks was from some people here in Texas who worked at a record shop. That was a fun time coordinating with a bunch of discord people to push it out. Felt weird being a part of that and immediately ordered a record, cd, and a shirt to make up for my sins lol

Well, that was before the store in Tijuana got a call from the record label and got to sell it early. Someone was going to go an hour before it closed to buy it, but it was too late by then, the shop stopped selling it.

Cool. For me it's the 3rd one (almost 4th though - I got into Deftones right after KNY release). I remember the Gore hype, all those teasers and stuff, but the most painful to wait was Ohms. Even though this is the longest gap between albums, I've learned to wait haha
Been a lurker since KNY days but been a fan since WP. All this hype got me excited to finally create an account. Love this community.
I was thinking last night that I don't mind the album titled Private Music, but Ecdysis would've been a badass name too. When I saw that song title I immediately thought it would've been perfect for the album name too. What do y'all think? It kinda makes more sense with the meaning behind the word and imagery of the album artwork.
Also, do y'all think there's going to be an instrumental on the album? They haven't done one since SNW but for some reason, I can't help but think one of the songs is going to be. Hopefully we find out soon!
i woke up a few hours ago and thought there was a leak since there was 15 more pages :'(
personally, i think i'm going to have to stop myself from hearing the leak but i'm too hyped for this new album so i doubt it
I doubt we get another instrumental from them. SNW was their experimental phase. I think they're past that. I wouldn't hate an instrumental but I'm not exactly crossing my fingers for another one if we're only getting 11 tracks.
they've only had one instrumental across all of their studio albums, unless you count Fist but that feels like a Mogwai track with hushed vocals.
Damn. No leak yet. Thankfully we are already in the home stretch.
I'm shocked for the few that had it in hand have not said anything about the new album? Maybe I missed it.
Any minute now

If there's a leak, we'd probably put 100 pages+ legit.
The wait continues...
Btw, is anyone here attending any of the private listening events?
I wish.. none of them are happening remotely close to me.

Well, at least the album is dropping soon. I would be fine without a leak, but a little sad

Ultimately, I'd prefer no leak. But if it DID leak, I'd have zero self-control.

I'm trying to stay strong but I'd be lying if I said it's not killing me knowing there's copies out in the wild. It's like Chekhov's gun just waiting to go off at any moment's notice

Yeah honestly I'm shocked and impressed that it hasn't leaked yet.. btw found out this morning that you get a free drink any size on your birthday at Starbucks so that was a good start
I love that we're less than six days from the album officially going live and we essentially have no idea how any of these songs sound. No reviews yet; only one interview that was pretty light on new album details; nine fresh songs.

This 100%!!!!!
I fucking wish I didn't listened to Milk of the Madonna...
I agree.. in an age where everything is spoiled before it comes out. It's nice knowing next to nothing about this album. Though I feel that might change next week once reviews and stuff start coming out.
Which is why I'm hoping it leaks this weekend because we can hear it truly unspoiled and almost zero insight into what we can expect..

I've never had the willpower to avoid snippets, 30 second previews, reviews, etc. This is looking like it will be the Deftones album I know the least about before listening in my entire life! It's actually pretty fucking cool.

Earlier I was thinking at this point, I'd take all of us joining a discord server or twitch stream and listening to it once and let that be it. Sort of like a listening party.. Could be kinda cool. As an option if anyone had the album but didn't want to rip it and fully leak it to the entire internet.

unfortunately i cant im not allowed discord :'(
if you think about it, most people dont own a cd recorder anymore, so they are not knowledgeable about how to "rip" a cd. so it is not that surprising it hasnt leaked yet.
Welp, I asked a buddy to grab it for me if he happened to be down there this weekend. He is going next weekend

Yeah but either way this week will be amazing
Almost at 200 pages
So to summarize thus far, there is one guy on this board that knows someone who purchased a physical copy but there's been no correspondence between the two for a rip?
I wish I could tell you how much better it will be if you just hold out until you get that meant to be quality version of the record, but you already know you just can't resist. The only reason I can resist is because of how busy my workload is this week. And family and friends in town. I won't be able to get enough of it as most of you will be able to. Even though my girls, my daughter and wife understand how this is for me, I'm not going to b able to explain it to everyone else... especially business lol... it would be cool for once for everyone to get the damn thing at the same time and nobody have to resist anything and that's what I'm hoping for for all of you and myself. Never know, this could be the last one. Hopefully and probably not.
Also, remember, you will have it forever, just like the other nine

Basically. Yes.
It's a really weird thing that people who get the record before others are probably not the ones who want it the most. I have to believe that is entirely up to the record label and not the band. I looked at some of those pictures of people at listening parties and it just looks like People who work for whoever and just have to be there mostly. Nobody from here went to any of them. I guess that's the best way to summarize it. The biggest fans in the world know this place. For a long time now.
Maybe it's another Ohms situation and they've been asked to not leak it 😂

Back to the figure 8, and the snake swallowing its tail. That's also a sign of death. Deftones have delved into death before and I'm thinking that means a lot of things which makes it interesting.
Was thinking about Bowie's last record and on his last record one of the signs from the album art I believe was a figure 8 sideways and it meant death....

Noice! Yeah for some reason, that didn't occur to me while I was posting that but yes. It's death and rebirth and transformation. I like to think of it as a transformation which would mean they will stick around or even a rebirth. Chino has used all these three words so many times though so it's either recycled or whatever. Whatever we want to think until we get to digest the record. But I'm pretty sure the figure being a serpent or dragon swallowing its tail means the same to both artists. Pretty fucking cool. Thanks man.
That whole idea spawns so many more ideas and or opinions, which makes it that more interesting. Sorry if I sound like Kamala Harris. It does look like Word salad to me, but I hope you get my drift. Cheers everyone. I hope you all get a lovely, lovely, lovely legendary Deftones record just like me.
I would put money on it that we get the name Lazarus somewhere in this record. Jesus resurrected him. He died and was reborn. Yeah that's all I have on that lol but I just get this feeling looking at the parallels between the two artists and the whole "serpent eating itself". Call it what you want...im just trying to throw something interesting out there other than "where is the album?" Lol somebody's gotta be that guy. I'm stoked as all getout just like y'all! anybody have any opinions on this or thoughts? Is anybody familiar? I don't particularly listen to the last David Bowie record, but he's been a part of my life my whole life and throughout my parents life. And when I seen that first post/picture of the snake eating its tail that's where I went in my head

I was actually wondering today if he would use "honey" on this album. Used it a few times on Ohms

i wasn't going to make an account, but fuck it, i can't lurk anymore. i've been thinking way too much about this and there's basically no place to theorize on stuff like this outside of here. :-[
the private music deftones logo is a snake tongue. snakes are THE equilibrium animal -- they represent both masculine and feminine energies/symbolism through the tail and head. they represent life and are associated with birth due to how many eggs a snake typically lays and how devoted snake mothers are to incubating their broods.
as you said, ouroboros ("snake swallowing its tail") represents the cycle of life and death, but also rebirth and by extension immortality through the continuous cycle of death leading to life leading to death etc. they also represent the world at large by essentially acting as its container or barrier in multiple cultures' legends of how the world is built/works (think jormungandr in norse mythos, shesha in hinduism, or quetzalcoatl in aztec mythos). they ultimately represent a source of everything we know of, which i think ties into the tracks "infinite source" and "departing the body" based off of the titles.
abe also hinted at the snake theme months before private music was officially name dropped if you look at his bass drum in shows from the beginning of this year. i find it hard to believe someone didn't mention that in here by now, but i only started to check the thread consistent around page 120 so if that is the case i probably missed it.

Sup everyone! Been a Deftones fan for about fifteen years now but a new user here. Pumped for Private Music.
Seen someone mention the possibility of a community listening party. I'd love to get in on that if it happens and you'd all have me. I think I'm in a different time zone from most other users here, which could be a limiting factor in whether I could participate or not.

Now it's the second time it's happened... so I'm guessing it'll be a single.. if you look at other albums, only 1 or two songs get the little dot for being popular... would be odd for this unreleased song to have it.

I think I didn't think of it because I have a shirt and hat from long days past of a cobra with Deftones name on them. I believe I bought right from their official store. Lo hard to say because I've bought many things from there and from abroad over many years, they've used the cobra before. I feel like it was last year or the year before, but the hat doesn't fit like I want it to and the T-shirt shrunk right away, which is why I don't buy their merch anymore unless I can physically try it out at a show which I've only been at once and the last five years or six years probably But the cobra has been around. I feel even way before that.

My guess is maybe Thursday to drum up more hype before the album release. Not that it matters as we'll (most likely) already be listening to it by then.
I'd say Wednesday if anything. Keep the hype strong before release

Jesus resurrected him. He died and was reborn. Yeah that's all I have on that lol but I just get this feeling looking at the parallels between the two artists and the whole "serpent eating itself". Call it what you want...im just trying to throw something interesting out there other than "where is the album?" Lol somebody's gotta be that guy. I'm stoked as all getout just like y'all! anybody have any opinions on this or thoughts? Is anybody familiar? I don't particularly listen to the last David Bowie record, but he's been a part of my life my whole life and throughout my parents life. And when I seen that first post/picture of the snake eating its tail that's where I went in my head
:)
i wasn't going to make an account, but fuck it, i can't lurk anymore. i've been thinking way too much about this and there's basically no place to theorize on stuff like this outside of here. :-[
the private music deftones logo is a snake tongue. snakes are THE equilibrium animal -- they represent both masculine and feminine energies/symbolism through the tail and head. they represent life and are associated with birth due to how many eggs a snake typically lays and how devoted snake mothers are to incubating their broods.
as you said, ouroboros ("snake swallowing its tail") represents the cycle of life and death, but also rebirth and by extension immortality through the continuous cycle of death leading to life leading to death etc. they also represent the world at large by essentially acting as its container or barrier in multiple cultures' legends of how the world is built/works (think jormungandr in norse mythos, shesha in hinduism, or quetzalcoatl in aztec mythos). they ultimately represent a source of everything we know of, which i think ties into the tracks "infinite source" and "departing the body" based off of the titles.
abe also hinted at the snake theme months before private music was officially name dropped if you look at his bass drum in shows from the beginning of this year. i find it hard to believe someone didn't mention that in here by now, but i only started to check the thread consistent around page 120 so if that is the case i probably missed it.
I think I didn't think of it because I have a shirt and hat from long days past of a cobra with Deftones name on them. I believe I bought right from their official store. Lo hard to say because I've bought many things from there and from abroad over many years, they've used the cobra before. I feel like it was last year or the year before, but the hat doesn't fit like I want it to and the T-shirt shrunk right away, which is why I don't buy their merch anymore unless I can physically try it out at a show which I've only been at once and the last five years or six years probably But the cobra has been around. I feel even way before that.
ah, that makes sense. i became a fan at the end of 2022 after hearing the more popular songs through edits on the clock app and from there i decided to very slowly get into things. when i was a kid -- around 13ish -- i got heavy into nirvana and queen, but after a year i burnt myself out bad on their music because i was only listening to it and nothing else. i really wanted to avoid that this time and i thankfully have been so far!
when it comes to merch, i'd probably fit comfortably in a medium or large but i tend to go for extra large just to be safe if it shrinks in the wash. i try not to wash anything on warm or hot water, especially graphic tees, and i also try to wash them inside out in case the printing material's getting old since it'll start wearing out/cracking more. i've mainly been buying secondhand from depop, though i did get my first shirt from spencer's since i wanted a nirvana shirt from there and they had one of those "buy one and you pay 3 cents less for the other one" type deals. so far i have ATF, gore, and self-titled...not sure which album i want to get next or if i want a concert footage t-shirt like my kurt tank. i also ordered the private music t-shirts from the website so that'll come when it comes.

Everyone just chill and lets see what happens. Have no reason to not believe them just yet. A photo of the vinyl in hand would seal the deal but it is what it is.
Can we just get a confirmation pic? Takes no time at all.
I don't think I'm going to be reading any reviews before the album. Before KNY, I read Romantic Dreams was "possibly the heaviest thing the band's ever written" and I still haven't recovered from the whiplash.

They've logged off. They're apparently trying to rip the album, so we'll know soon enough if they're trolling or not. and lets face it, most of us would be on this thread right now anyways.. so lets just wait and see.

I really don't think they'd want thouse listening parties "tainted" by a leak. Now if you plan on going to the event you probably won't listenb to a leak anyways. But part of the appeal is being "one of the first people ever". The band has leaked a few things here and there, sure. but at this stage in their career, I think they just want things to go according to plan.
I have mentally prepared for any scenario and have fully accepted no leak may occur and 12am New Zealand time will be when I get to listen.

I remember watching this time-lapse on Pompeii
... right after listening to that track for the first few runs. Was a trip.

I've heard that song live twice... 2012 & 2014, both in Santiago, Chile.
Is a great song.
Have you seen them live?
saw mogwai when they were touring on rave tapes, incredible live band.

Man that was a legendary night when it leaked.
You're telling me.. I was on mushrooms and took a flight back home as I was listening to the end of pompeji when the plane started taking off
That is incredible. Were you tripping balls at that moment or you had taken the mushrooms not that long ago?
I was already tripping and in pure bliss as my gf at the time was driving me around through the mountains in el paso, tx
That sounds incredible!

I was JUST looking for an archive, the radio station is Reactor 105.7. I caught the last bit of the interview, it was actually with Abe, I just know he said they're touring Mexico in 2026 and something along the lines that "I think about you all the time" is your typical standard Deftones song

ah...we still have the interview abe's supposed to be doing on the 20th with i think a podcast too. at least that's more or less guaranteed to be archived since the interviewer will upload it. did a quick glancing over of what seems to be the radio station's instagram and no mention of the interview; i did try to check the station page that was linked over to see if i could play back the interview but it appears to be live only (which does make sense).

This link is dead is possibly the worst song they've ever written. It sounds so commercial and cliché and Papa roach and whatever all at the same time. I've never listened to that song all the way through ever. And I never will. That shit is gay.

Fucking love THIS LINK IS DEAD. The way Pompeji leads into it, best moment in Ohms.
"That shit is gay." You are an Andrew Tate fan, aren't you?
TLID is Chino dissing SL leakers for frantic searching of a working leak link. Written after we have leaked Gore here and he was so pissed bout it on Twitter...
"You snap your fingers, you think I'll respond. I have no patience now for expectation. Fuck this shit."

Way to miss the point completely..
The song is about Chino being mad about other peoples' outspoken expectation of *his* music. Coming off the heels of Gore and the often raised criticism that it was not "heavy" enough, he is expressing resentment at the idea that the "fans" can just snap their fingers and demand the band sound like they want them to sound.
The premise of him "dissing SL leakers looking for a link" makes the song's lyrics completely unintelligible

Welcome! and yeah I think you're right. At this point, it probably won't leak until Wednesday or Thursday. Unless we get some rouge warehouse worker that steals an early copy.. Otherwise we probably won't get it until New Zealand gets it.
We're in the home stretch now. Leak or not, we're getting a brand new Deftones album Friday!

3 days, 21 hours and 8 minutes until it releases in New Zealand.
If you have VPN, you'll be able to listen to it.
Open a private browser window, start a VPN set to New Zealand. Go to Proton mail, create new email with credentials you can remember, go to spotify on the private browser, create an account with your proton mail account, then log in to spotify with this new account.
Then you can now log out, and turn your VPN off.
Log back into your spotify account in a private browser again and you should now have a functional NZ Spotify Account without a stupid VPN slowing your connection down or having any limits with free VPN's

Man it's going to be a fun week. Album drops Friday and then I see them live the following Monday.
We'll hold an "official" not really official since it's a fan run Discord channel, but on Friday, after the album is officially released, we'll hold a listening party for all here and in the Discord.
Still need to figure out a time that most people can jump in, maybe 9PM EDT or 10PM?
DawnofWar you might have to ask your parents nicely if you can join! Tell them it's an exclusive one time listening party with fans. Maybe they'll let ya get on discord this once?

Nothing wrong with being gay, i was fucking around sheesh. I am truly Sorry if i offended anyone and not because i care about what a stranger thinks of me but bc i really didnt mean it in that way. No need to be tough. I think its hilarious to say bc thats what all kids growing up in the 90's would say. Its not something I regularly say. Its the thought of that saying catching like wildfire somehow and becoming a normal thing kids used to say a lot. I do truly apologize

no one wants to risk/knows how to switch barcodes anymore 💔 to be fair targét does NOT fuck around with that. you'd have to be as slick as a sleeper agent...i can't imagine finding a spot in the store calm enough and cam-free enough to actually have time to rip a tag off and put it over the vinyl's, not to mention self-checkout is full of cameras too.

Heres a sneaky plan [Chino dont arrest me please]
1. Go to thr vinyl section or CD, find Privte music, open the cd and put it in your pocket,
2. Vinyl, what i said earlier open it switch it out with another one

switching one vinyl/CD for another sounds easier than it is. remember, basically everything is wrapped in cellophane nowadays. that makes noise, especially if you're desperately crinkling it up to get it off faster (you could of course also use a blade, but bringing anything like sewing scissors or a packaging knife into a store with you can and will be a liability). if you go in when the store's quiet, people can and will hear and "meander" over to you, especially employees. if you go in when the store's busy, you're gonna be paranoid every 5 seconds unless you have a buddy checking behind you.
this would need someone experienced, preferably with nerves of steel.
The levels of deviousness here are impressive...
I dont think we will make it past monday without at least a bit of leakage

even if you put it on top of the other barcode? when it came to stuff like this i never did barcode transfers, i just walked out after checking for beepy tags. i never went for something as big or expensive as a vinyl -- i mainly just wanted cute clothes/jewelry/accs.

Do I have stories of the things (that which I will not put in writing) that I got away with at Target... barcodes/stickers, switcheroos... I almost got away with a free PS2 one time. It's how I first was able to play GTA Vice City and Silent Hill 2 for the first time FOR FREE (BTW both games blew my mind). Good times.

I just came back home from visiting 6 different places trying to find an early copy (this is GrubbethThyBum from the discord). Three record shops, 2 targets, and a Barnes and Noble.

Okay okay awesome?!?!!?
I remember when leaked audio of ohms was floating around, everyone was talking about the "song that had seagulls" lol good times
"Mellotron like synths" at the end of souvenir, likely the 2025 NA tour interlude.

My Mind Is a Mountain," the album's first single and opener, gets straight to the point. Nothing to build up to, the song delivers a punch from the start. Carpenter liberally delivers his signature bouncy power chords , and Moreno already delivers a few powerful punches. The heavy opening riff of "Locked Club" adds fuel to his incendiary parlando, and the dreamy chorus is vintage Deftones.
Challenging song titles are a trademark of the band. A few examples: "Feiticeira," "Pittura infamante," and the instrumental "U, U, D, D, L, R, L, R, A, B, Select, Start." The grand prize on this record goes to "Ecdysis," which simply means "molting" in Dutch. The first few bars strongly hint at Moreno's side project Crosses ; after the bleeps and pokes , a wonderfully deep bass rolls in. Like a spider molting, the song unfolds into a riff-o-rama with a wonderfully catchy chorus.
Opening dance
In "Infinite Source," drummer Abe Cunningham once again demonstrates his mastery of less is more, while Moreno's dreamy vocals float on a pulsating bass and perfectly controlled guitar swell. "Souvenir" continues in the same vein. For a moment, we think: the middle of the album is more for shoegazers than metalheads, but then, amidst the ethereal notes, a beast of a riff erupts. Hitting, soothing, and hitting again, as only Deftones
can. After four and a half minutes, mellotron-like synths gently accompany you until "cXz," which immediately bursts like a blister after the Dodentocht.
Moreno wrote the basis for "I Think About You All the Time" while strumming his guitar on Malibu beach after a morning swim. The song is as soft as it is dynamic, and we wouldn't be surprised if it pops up on a couple's first dance list, which would certainly be a first for Deftones.
Then, the second single, "Milk of the Madonna," immediately shifts up a gear with its wildly rolling riffs. "Holy ghost. I'm on fire." You bet, Chino. What! A! Song! "Cut Hands" is another outright blunder, perhaps the most striking nod to older work on this album. "Metal Dream" emphasizes the second word in the title. Did we mention that Deftones excels at wonderfully dreamy songs that still pack a powerful punch? The wonderfully drawn-out closer, "Departing The Body," proves that once again.
Sorry about that but thank you. I figured it out on the smart phone never done it before.

DAWNOFWAR, I mentioned recently that I listened to be sides and rarities for the first time in years. Have you heard that one yet? There's some covers and some B sides and Collabs on it. They literally prove they're the best cover band with Lynyrd Skynyrd's simple man. And others. If you haven't gotten that one yet, do it right now!

Thank you very much, sounds awesome!
It sounds very accordion like. Guess who else likes accordion? Robert Smith. Just saying. I remember him writing a little jingle fucking around about his ex Celeste. I think it was in entertain me. Did it sound like you could hear some voices in the audio at the very end before Chino started strumming? Maybe the intro to the next track?Thanks for posting by the way.
Some of you mentioned some memories in the past about the ramp up to a new record here on sharing lungs and how it was, do y'all remember talking endlessly about entertain me? ;D That shit was psycho if I remember right. All the rumors about whether he could release it and whether it was finished and yada yada yada. I was just as hyped for that as I have been for any of their records ever and we got at least some of it because I don't believe that was all of it Myself. Sorry for not posting this in the bullshit thread......"wheres my fans? Im jumping...Im gonna jump! " that was gnarly, considering it looked like he could've fucked himself up, landing off of that lifeguard shack

Hey everyone! Just saying what's up for my first post here. I have lurked over the years, but after a huge resurgence of Deftones listening, I am absolutely ready for the new album.
I cannot wait to dive into the new music, to see how my ever revolving door of album rankings turn into. Lately, Koi No Yokan, and Diamond Eyes have been on constant repeat!

northeast. the summer's been pretty crazy for us between weeks of high 80s-low 90s and weeks of 70s weather with a lot of cloudiness and/or 0.1 inch of rain every night. we also got the occasional thunderstorm.

Well since it didn't leak today, chances it leaks tomorrow?
I don't see it leaking earlier than Wednesday now. There comes a point where "risking it" probably doesn't make much sense any longer for those in possession.

Did you get a link to that German review?
Visions.de review:
The Deftones have taken their time, reflected and in the case of frontman Chino Moreno and guitarist Stephen Carpenter put their own health in the foreground. The resulting new energy acts like a superpower on the band, their concerts and especially their tenth album
"Private Music" is not a phoenix that rises from the ashes, the previous nine albums of the alternative band from Sacramento are too good for that. New is that "Private Music" shows four friends who are for the first time 100 percent aware of their strength, their uniqueness and their emotional connection. Also new is that tour bassist Fred Sablan makes his studio debut.
"My Mind Is A Mountain" is a worthy opener for this tenth album: as if it had suddenly torn away the air lock of a spaceship, Stephen Carpenter's rich guitar chords and Abe Cunningham's characteristic drumming suck you directly into the Deftones universe. While you are still trulling around your own axis, a Chino Moreno captures with pleading singing. Without a breath, this first listening impression merges into "Locked Club": Here Moreno sounds alternately spiteful and sublime, but above all vocally powerful and full of newly gained self-confidence.
The following "Ecdysis", which translates as "to skin", initially leaves the stage with a symbiosis of Frank Delgado's electronic keyboard and Sablan's driving bass sounds. The song title in connection with the snake on the album cover spreads the mood of a new band era and also "Infinite Source" looks prophetic afterwards with its optimistic double of flickering guitars and harmony singing. Created as the first song of the album, the Deftones really seem to have tapped a completely new, previously undiscovered source of energy.
The centerpiece and longest song of the record is the following "Souvenir", which bundles variations and opposites in a crazy self-understanding: It begins minimalist, progressive and hypnotic, dreamy shoegaze is another facet that the band likes to use. Here, however, only until a whipping nu-metal guitar brings the dream locks to collapse, subsides again and melts under Moreno's singing, only to then rise up again in the chorus. A complete U-turn follows in the last third of the song: One instrumental sound layer pushes over the next, the tones of the chord rub and complement each other equally, new ones are raised from the grated particles. The effect is that of a meditative pause in the middle of this extraordinary album, which then quietly and secretly merges into the upcoming "cXc" with its massive earth landslide chorus in the best sense.
A dormant masterpiece is "I Think About You All The Time", written by Moreno in the early morning, after a round of swimming in the sea. The result is a simple, longing piece, whose special feature lies in details such as the sighing guitar slide before the start of the second verse or the deliberately late use of the drums. The fact that the album title simply goes back to Moreno's naming of the desktop folder with the song sketches could not be more suitable for this freshly skinned, more personal version of the Deftones.

i did notice in the first review sent here (humo) that they didn't really describe how some of the songs sounded (specifically 'cut hands') while having a lot to say about others...intriguing
Since it's looking unlikely that it'll leak at this point, I know two really good (imo, at least) bands that are very obviously inspired by Deftones. It might help scratch the itch for the remaining days, you know? Check out Moodring and Vexes.
I really dug the new Thornhill album, that one is very Deftones sounding without sounding too derivative to me (except Tongues maybe). Under the knife and Silver Swarm are my picks of that album.
Also has anyone heard back from the listening party thing? They said keep eyes out Monday but maybe here in Aus its more like Tuesday for American time.
Whoah, these bands sounds like nu metal making come back in 2025. Like it!
What helps me to scratch the itch is Milk of the Madonna on constant repeat and lesser known Deftones:
- Gore (remastered version on YT)
- White Pony 20th anniversary remix album, few tunes on it have super high repeat value
Long-time member here — been around since 2006, though I usually pop back in when a new album drops. Just wanted to say "hi" to all the fellow SL members and share how super stoked I am for this upcoming release. Can't wait to dive into the new music and see what everyone thinks!

Chillllll Harry.. we gone pass 213 and a half now 😉 that's only for kill the time purposes
Drove by my local vinyl store before work today, talked to one of the guys, no chance i can get a copy, the embargo on this one is heavy, they told me they would be in huge trouble if anything leaked because of them, theres only 4 employees there aswell, and none of them are huge deftones fans, so no shot for me anymore

That was very well written, wish people would stop trying to compare everything they do to White Pony though. Yes it's a masterpiece but every body of work speaks for itself and should be judged solely on its own because they've really never stalled or stopped evolving.

Rough translation through google:
With "Private Music," Deftones present their tenth studio album – and once again, the Sacramento band demonstrates why they have been one of the most influential forces in alternative metal for decades. Five years after "Ohms," they manage to release a work that fits seamlessly into their discography, yet still reveals new facets.
The production by Nick Raskulinecz, with whom the band previously worked on "Diamond Eyes" and "Koi No Yokan," lends "Private Music" immense clarity. The album feels both raw and detailed, full of the contrasts so typical of Deftones: fragile moments alternate with massive walls of sound, spherical surfaces collide with metallic heaviness. It is precisely these contrasts that make the album an intense experience that resonates with both long-time fans and new listeners.
The comparison to "White Pony" inevitably comes to mind, perhaps the greatest milestone in the band's history. While "White Pony" shaped an entire generation back then and is still considered a masterpiece, "private music" showcases a more mature version of that vision: less youthful exuberance, but more awareness of dynamics, atmosphere, and timing. It's not the revolutionary statement that "White Pony" was in 2000 – but it carries its spirit within it and carries it into the present.
Compared to "Gore" (2016), which didn't win over all fans, or to "Ohms," which at times seemed very focused but also predictable, "private music" sounds freer and bolder. You can sense that the band isn't afraid to explore new spaces, be it through experimental structures or unconventional timbres. At the same time, the typical Deftones sound remains unmistakable, carried by Chino Moreno's distinctive voice and Stephen Carpenter's low-pitched guitar riffs.
The album's great strength lies in its cohesion. It's less a collection of individual hits than a work that begs to be experienced as a whole—almost like a soundtrack to an inner journey. Deftones succeed in capturing both the gravity and fragility of existence and translating them into sound.
The bottom line is that "private music" isn't another "White Pony"—but it doesn't have to be. Instead, it presents a band that, more than 30 years later, is still capable of surprising and moving its listeners. It's an album that honors the past without becoming bogged down in nostalgia—and thus a powerful statement for Deftones' present and future.
9 outta 10

I agree. I think they do that to try and speak to the more general audience. People hear "it's like White Pony?!" and that immediately perks up a lot of ears.
What I've read in the 3 reviews is this continues the sound we know and love, but adds new elements.
I expect that we won't have huge surprises, but that it will feel 'fresher' than Ohms, which at times felt like the band going through the motions.
Which is pretty much all I could ask for from a band that has been doing this for so long. I mean that in the best way. They have perfected their craft, and always stayed true to themselves. That in itself is no mean feat.
Exciting!
All you Europeans stocking your store shelves today should be ashamed of yourselves
Maybe it's my age (I'm likely the oldest fart on here) but I think I'm looking the most forward to "I Think About You All the Time." It's long been a dream of mine that Chino would release a really stripped down Nick-Cave-later-in-his-career sort of album with tracks like "Death by Plane" "Teenager" "Anniversary of.." etc. Sounds like this would be right up there.

Meh I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock into it.. Its just someone's opinion. I HIGHLY doubt its the best track on the album. They could also be saying that because its the single, and so they've heard it more than the others.
Hmm... after reading thise couple of reviews now I'm back to being skeptical :-\
You could ask a variety of people their favorite song on any deftones album and mostly all answers would be different, i dont think its worth worrying about it

You will all have your own opinions hopefully once you have it. Friday morning I will be alone for hours taking it all in and I cannot wait. I just wish I could read my CD jacket while I'm first listening to it like I did my whole life before shit hit the fan and music distribution changed for the worse in my opinion loved picking something up and delving into the words and pictures upon first meeting.

Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 18, 2025, 03:29 PMHmm... after reading thise couple of reviews now I'm back to being skeptical :-\
Can you really expect a classic from a band at this point in their careers/lives? I love Ohms but comparing it to the first 4 or KNY is pointless, different era, more skills than fire.
These people who review albums by and large aren't fans like WE are, so they listen for and hear different things. I bet there will be plenty to love on this record.
Just remember, a lot of people did not like S/T and we know where most of us stand on that record.
I'm glad I have an open mind about this. I didn't always have that when waiting on their music.I'm not letting a review steer me in any direction, especially after two great singles...one of them being possibly one of the best things they've written in my opinion. Just have to see if it stands the test of time. The lyrics alone on milk of the Madonna as simple and catchy as they are, are pretty remarkable compared to most of the stuff they've written in the last 20 years. And it fucking jams. So if it is the best track on the record like one guy's opinion said, it could still truly be a great classic Deftones record in my opinion.
Most of their music also ages like a fine wine imo
Lol a bunch of reviews give 9/10s or the essential equivalent of an excellent review in lieu of an actual number, and some of you weirdos start to worry.

I don't think that's exactly the question on everyone's mind.
To answer though...he really liked the two singles. He doesn't like the slow dreamy stuff.
I could not care less what that person thinks of the album.

Yeah no way im listening to infinite source before the album drops thats to many ro listen to before a full album

Maybe the rooms dark when they walk in? I think they'd notice the phone screen light up?
i do think i'm probably going to avoid leaks if they come out atp + i'll try not to listen to the third single until the album drops. :-\
i think i've managed to listen to both singles under 10 times, but to be fair part of that willpower is because i've been working on a (related) passion project and a big part of that project is video editing/clipping, which i can't have music on for. i need to be able to hear where speech starts/stops and clip things so that i don't cut people off, but the cropping isn't too harsh.

i was thinking of a small, rectangular cloth bag that would hide the screen and any low light (i have one like this for my phone if i'm wearing an outfit with no pockets), but i do also tend to keep my phone on the lowest brightness settings possible. i've also seen clear baggies for phones, but that kinda defeats the purpose since it's clear.
Just saying, even if I went to one of those listening parties, I would just enjoy it and not be concentrating on keeping my phone and my actions discreet. I mean seriously, think about it if you were there and the album was just about to come out literally just come out... Wouldn't you want to just listen intently?

Loving the positive reviews I've been reading so far. My hype is through the roof! But I am curious, as someone else mentioned, why there hasn't been a lot of talk regarding Departing the Body. That's probably my most anticipated track. Have high hopes for that one. Would be a shame if it was one of the weaker tracks on the album. But typically, they always do very well with their album closers.

My hype is through the roof! But I am curious, as someone else mentioned, why there hasn't been a lot of talk regarding Departing the Body. That's probably my most anticipated track. Have high hopes for that one. Would be a shame if it was one of the weaker tracks on the album. But typically, they always do very well with their album closers.
Definitely a good closing song mountain Madonna and cut hands have the most energy on the album
I don't even care about a leak. Just curious to know what your thoughts are regarding the new tracks. Which were your favorites and which did not grab you as much?
Souvenir is probably my favorite besides the 2 singles
I think about you all the time to me was a pt2 of sextape
Wasn't a huge fan of locked club
Sextape pt.2 you say? Hell yeah! What was it about Locked Club you didn't like?
Didn't everyone here pretty much agree don't believe anything on Reddit? Now we are counting on Reddit? And to the guy who may have listened to the record, the points or whatever you wanna call it you made are easy to make considering if you read the reviews Those things were mentioned vaguely. About the songs that is. Tell us something about the songs that weren't talked about please?
Come on you've been posting pretty quickly
The guy on Reddit said cut hands and side 2 of the album are the best.

So share a snippet :)
More and more people seem to be getting the record early so maybe we can actually get some leaks soon

I don't think you should. If anybody's dumb enough to listen to that through a phone well then I guess they deserve their regret.

🙏🏼 Just a little bit of juice to get us through the next few days, reminded me of the old days with 30sec previews for each song on iTunes I think it was. And then some bands would do YouTube videos with 15 sec clips on each song to promote their album.
I still remember binge watching the The Used Lies For the Liars preview video.
People going insane, haha. IDK if the guy claiming he has it is legit or not. If it is, I appreciate the effort but, personally, Im not listening to anything anymore. Friday is close enough. Im good.

There is a little part in cut hands, that reminds me of the vocal delivery in Crosses "Vivien", right before the chorus kicks in. But that guitar riff... Ughhh I need this album right now!

Man we are so close. I can feel it in the air
Chino's vocals so far From The only snippet I listened to was about 10 seconds of cut hands sounded to me like he did on Palms. This is a very today Deftones out of the two whole songs and seconds I listened to. It sounds like Chino from Palms except for milk of the Madonna lol makes no sense but that snippet truly did sound like Palms.

People who do this are the worst. Either don't share anything early or give people what they want.
I agree with you that it ruins it to listen through a phone recording, so why post it?

Not at all, leaking the full thing in phone recording quality would not be good, the snippets are just to scratch the itch, its only 3 more days after all

Anyone?
Sounds like chino doing that whisper thing from Lhabia.
just listened and i agree. it'll probably be a little easier to understand when we get the official version, but i wouldn't be surprised if it pulls an acid hologram and it's just completely indecipherable (actually i might be able to make a few educated guesses if i put this on loud enough when i've taken a few gummies...).
I will happily be one of if not the only one on this forum to listen to this record officially when it comes to me in the best format it can. I hope you all enjoy because we all share a very cool thing. I'll be back to discuss the record with everybody good night God bless

Hey, sharinglungs. Can you send me a "package" in Provincetown, Massachusetts?
;) ;) ;)
Does SharingLungs have the album?
Loved infinite source so far..great energy on that one.
It's officially leaked...
I wish i could listen to crest once in my lifetime, already looked everywhere possible and no luck, gore is one of my fav albums, althought unpopular
Not listening to shit until Friday, when I can actually relax and enjoy the album. Need to be able to listen completely and take it all in, hate it, compare it to their other work, then let it settle and come around to loving it, just like I do every album. Except Gore, I still hate that album, never listen to it. I hope it's better than that album.
Reading that there's a sextape pt2 and a song that sounds like TLID does not sound promising to me but... I'm still hyped.
Some of you have the full album. I can smell it
I can't wait for my friend to go home

Don't have to work tomorrow and couldn't go to sleep knowing everybody is hearing the full thing, but I'm still going to hold out and feel like at least I will have something new and fresh to say in a few days when y'all are burned out from hearing everybody else's reactions. Shit 75% of you from tonight won't even be here anymore. Prob more than that. But the right ones I see every so many years, Hopefully you will be here to talk to you about it when I hear it Friday. As for the people who were telling people to go and steal it and then got it and kept it for themselves, go fuck yourselves....I hope everybody remembers this if it matters again. You didn't fuck me. You showed your true colors to everyone else and myself...but everybody enjoy! I'm so happy for you and it makes me happy because I have something to look forward to also... based on your happiness with the record! That sounds great DeftonesFosho

No, I'm gonna wait bro. It's not a good time right now to listen to it because I don't have the system. I want to hear it on anywhere near me other than driving distance. I'm camping. Fuck hearing it on a phone or a tablet. And I just for the first time want to hear Without a leak in case it's the last record. I know it sounds weird. It's my brother's Radiohead if that makes sense it's my dad's Beatles.
I seen you show up out of nowhere and get the link and share it with everybody but there's been people here for a long time that acted like they would do that but didn't. I thought that was pretty awesome.
Can someone send me the link through PM? :)
Cut Hands/Metal Dream/Departing the Body might be my favorite 3 track punch from the boys... Damn, this is where the album really clicks for me.
Frank really shines on cut hands.

I LOVE that you can really hear his presence on the album. There are so many little haunting sounds going on in the background, and especially in Departing the Body.
I am half way through my time on this planet. Thank you all for being here today and sharing this experience together.
I know someone in this forum definetly has a Crest recording, but it probably feeds ego to have something so exclusive, so it will never get shared

Maybe there's a better quality leak out there, but the one I'm listening to isn't that great. Super loud too.

I listened with good headphones, and it sounds pretty damn good.
With that said, Ecdysis might have the meatiest bassline this year, and this is coming from a Chevelle fan.
Can anyone share the link with me please ?
How is infinite source, CXZ, ecdysis, and metal dream? Haven't heard much about any of those if anything.
Can I have a link please?

That's a well red intelligent Deftones fan reply right there and that's without hearing it though. I like that you mentioned that era and those demos. My mind is thinking.

I can't wait, but I will. FOD is one of the great mysteries of their music for me as far as having an official release. The many versions is one of the reasons that is probably the biggest song that intrigued me even over Eros. I think I started shaving when I got obsessed with that whole thing and I'm 44 now. I could be off with that analogy but you get what I mean I never give up hope for it but I have.

So far, for me, it sounds like ST/DE/KNY are having a threesome. I really didn't like cXz at all when I first heard it, now I'm starting to really dig it.

well wouldn't you know it, i'm about to listen to cXz! let's see if it'll be an instant hit or a grower (i don't think i've ever met a deftones song that couldn't grow on me no matter what yet, but i also haven't given a few a spin yet...idk i just get weird about listening to every song in a musician's discography?)
To be honest, I wasn't really that sold on the singles, and said they may work better cohesively. Thank the lord I was right... shit the album flows so well. Locked Club may be the only track I haven't really vibed with yet.

Every album has a vibe. PM is like wise, happy and even heartwarming Deftones.
It's only been a few hours, but it's so good. Full of surprises but cohesive and such an *album* in the truest sense. Deftones are so fucking back.
This blows Ohms and Gore out of the water. After two listens, I can't say that it's as good or better than DE and KNY, but it's in the fucking conversation, and everybody should be ecstatic about that. It could for sure jump above those 2 records one day for me.
I'm waiting until Friday but can't wait to read your reviews!

Locked club was a bit off when I first heard it, but it's growing.
I can feel it,
Can you feel it? ;D

Like M83 oblivion vibes? If so, I'm pretty sure they did the soundtrack to that movie or at least the main intro outro.
just finished my first listen.
only song that i didnt really like was locked club
ecdysis is 10/10
infinite source is so catchy
cut hands brings back the older deftones style which i love
metal dream is my second favorite.

i mean, not to dickride but i've only been looking seriously into the fandom side of things vs. being a casual and then obsessed listener earlier this year (i was a casual listener from 2023 onward) and what little mentions of you i did find from more recent times on both here and the sub made it clear you were a pretty major, hardcore archivist.
archiving is good work, especially nowadays where shit can be wiped off of the internet startlingly easily by a corporation if they so much as snap their fingers. speaking of which...do you have the scuzz interview with chino and abe? i tried DMing this guy who might've had it but nothing :-[ might be lost media atp
Hands down my favorite record since Chi has passed. My heart was racing for most of it. I cannot believe how much I just enjoyed that!
Goddamn, I love this band so much. But I really have not loved the last two records. I'm so happy that this one was so much more solid. Good for them. Even if this is the last Deftones record, I just enjoyed the shit out of that. And I'm happy I got to experience that musical joy that only my favorite band can give!

I've actually respected your opinion over the years and that makes me so excited to hear it. Good for you man put another post up in the next few days or more. I'll be watching everything because it's good discipline for me right now and I'm quitting alcohol at the same time which is crazy.

I'll be listening when it drops midnight 22nd
Infinite Source has such an older deftones vibe to it. The chorus friggin' soars, and can see it being a single.
I'd say this is almost a "best of" album by Deftones. You can hear parts of their entire discography on here. It's incredible and mainly upbeat - not much slower stuff on here. cXz's verse riff sounds like part of the When Girls Telephone Boys riff. I Think About You is another Sextape. Cut Hands is part Hexagram, part something else throwback.
Stef really brought it with his dissonant, yet upbeat chords. Abe is a groove machine. Fred fits like a glove and I especially love his work on #3 and Milk. Frank continues to create interesting layers. Chino's keeping it varied, spicing things up with unexpected vocal styles and still ripping some gnarly screams he has no business doing at his age.
Okay, no more listening until release now.
This album sounds like what I always imagined in my head Eros would sound like. Anyone else?
God, I love this album. Best since SNW.

Completely agree with this. There are sprinkles of everything on this album, which is coming in after every listen. New Chevelle album does the same thing, so this is just so refreshing getting all of this new music, this year.
The sound effects in Departing the Body, are making my soul depart my body. There is just something about it, man.

You are definetely not the only one.
Fuck yes. I'm at the same time trying to practice discipline with a couple things. And I'm not doing this because of that other thing. It's because I've never done it with this band. Not 100% anyways.
Infinite source gives me some Morrisey vibes.

Quote from: tps1989 on Aug 19, 2025, 04:26 AMThis album sounds like what I always imagined in my head Eros would sound like. Anyone else?
God, I love this album. Best since SNW.
That's what I want myself to hear and is what I asked several times. Fucking A

I've listened to leaks before. I did with SNW and a couple more records. Not like they ruined the experience for me. This time tho, I just decided to hear it laying down on my couch with headphones on. Nothing more. Im glad to read so many positive 1st impressions. IDK if this is the adrenaline kicking in for new Deftone stuff or not but it doesnt matter.
Hang on, brother.

Goddamn, I love this band so much. But I really have not loved the last two records. I'm so happy that this one was so much more solid. Good for them. Even if this is the last Deftones record, I just enjoyed the shit out of that. And I'm happy I got to experience that musical joy that only my favorite band can give!
I've actually respected your opinion over the years and that makes me so excited to hear it. Good for you man put another post up in the next few days or more. I'll be watching everything because it's good discipline for me right now and I'm quitting alcohol at the same time which is crazy.
Thanks bro. I appreciate that. Yeah once again the last two records something was just missing for me. I think mainly with Stephen and Chino. Abe always shines IMO. But this one really felt different to me. Definitely my favorite record in a long time. It's definitely a combination of all of their previous records into one with a new fresh and experimental take on all of it. Some killer groove and killer tempo changes and the last 10 minutes is the record is just 10/10.
I really feel like this record will get some solid reviews and the music world will really enjoy it. I'm excited for them. They deserve it. Sober Chino killed it this time. I'm sober myself so I'm really happy for him. I know how hard it is. There's a freshness in his voice this time.

I am actually really liking that he doesn't scream a lot on the album. The screams sound calculated, and his voice has so much room to just groove, which this album rides on.
It's better than koi, gore, and adrenaline. Some epic tracks but as a whole, that's the only ones I'd place it over
I'll take a PM if people are sharing. Please and thank you 🙏
Can anyone hook me up? For real no one remember all the videos I've uploaded on youtube?

Bro I cannot wait to get the lyrics for this record. I feel like it's going to take it to an entirely different level. Chino is brilliant.
Can I get the link please? thanks in advance!
Gore and Ohms sounded really forced to me, almost like a soulless version of Deftones, but this new album is what I was waiting since Diamond Eyes.

transcription's gonna take a minute due to the mixing, but i REALLY like how the mixing sounds on these. particularly, ecdysis gave me "oblivion" from grimes vibes of all things (?!?!?) and i really fuck with infinite source's riff and mixing.
Holy shit, I hear Oblivion now in the beginning! Great ear!
i thought i was gonna be giving a bit of a hot take. relieved someone else hears it 😅
Like M83 oblivion vibes? If so, I'm pretty sure they did the soundtrack to that movie or at least the main intro outro.
...not quite. i meant grimes' oblivion (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5H-YlcMSbc) -- the intro is similarly very techy and bouncy and odd in a very entrancing way.
Speaking of artists I wish would drop a new album. I'm interested to see where Grimes go next

That is exactly what I'm going to do. Eat a gummy or two while the family is in Gatlinburg for 2 1/2 days which is perfect. All I have to remember is to take my dogs out and feed them which is really crazy. It's just a perfect timing. I have a full family schedule usually this just worked out perfect. Last time I had a gummy was probably three or four months ago. That's why I'm holding out probably.

Departing the Body, makes me want to walk into the woods at night, and just wander. The song is so hauntingly beautiful; it gives off this feeling of being uneasy, then goes into this ethereal verse.

Welp, we're here. We did it. Welcome to all you new names! You'll never have any idea how long the long-timers were suffering and coping in this thread waiting for this moment lol.
I can't really make any kind of declarations yet of where I'd rank it in their discography, but I will say its one of their more cohesive albums, for sure. I've been kind of missing that since DE, a collection of songs that really all fit together like a glove.

agreed. being sober takes a lot of willpower and self-control. you can tell in concert footage that chino really seems to be enjoying himself -- big smiles, interacting with the crowd more, hopping and bouncing and flapping all over the stage. very good signs!

Hey bro, that is awesome you are trying to quit alcohol. Not that drinking is bad. I love getting wasted (old lady just doesn't let me except a few times a year lol).

It is darker, and massive like everyone else is saying. However, I do agree that WHTY has a haunting vibe to it with that bassline!

Souvenir, departing, I think about you all the time, ecdysis, and cut hands are best tracks
Beginning of departing sounds like a mars Volta intro
I love this album so much.
I was NOT expecting a panic chord breakdown in Cut Hands, by the way.
every track is great and unique in its own way, seriously

So I loved the Chi supposed references on diamond eyes and I loved a few tracks off of Koi and just a couple off of Gore and I hardly listen to ohms anymore. Before that, I still listen to those records straight through. Call me the guy that wants them to re-create something, but that's not it. I love them so much Still! and i still Listen to all the records, but just want some kind of cohesion and give a fuck. I love Deftones. It's so hard to explain what it is. I think obviously it's those past records Bring me back to those good times in my early days that I will never go back to But milk of the Madonna hinted at that so it told me we could go there.
Whether you know it or not, y'all's opinions on here matter the most to me out of any reviews out there in the world for this band. What y'all think is what matters to me for the almost couple past decades. I hope you all enjoy it and continue to enjoy it, but I hope it (private music) gets better like those early records did. when white pony and self titled dropped and especially Saturday night wrist all three of those records had to grow on me and they took a month or several months or maybe even half a year I can't remember. But those are the records you're always fishing for if you grow up with them. I hope you all have the same experience with THIS record and myself as well along with you.
Can anyone send a link to me pls? I'd greatly appreciate it, PLEASE and thank you!!
Guys I'm already on my 4th listen. And I just keep loving it more and more. Finding new things through each listen. Easily a top tier album in their disco IMO. Honest Album of The Year contender.
I don't get the hate Locked Club gets. It sounds like something you'd hear in the ATF days where Chino sings like he's talkin to the crowd in the beginning. Then Abe's fuckin killing those drums at the 2min mark with that floaty chorus. "I can feeeeeeel itttttt, can youuuuu feeeeeeel itttt"
I've said this elsewhere, it sounds like KNY's older brother. Like all Deftones albums, it's a full album experience that will take many listens for it to fully sink in. I love it.
Anyone else love the guitar sounds in infinite source?

Quote from: DefFsho on Aug 19, 2025, 05:21 AMQuote from: MidNightProvokeR on Aug 19, 2025, 05:15 AMGuys I'm already on my 4th listen. And I just keep loving it more and more. Finding new things through each listen. Easily a top tier album in their disco IMO. Honest Album of The Year contender.
I don't get the hate Locked Club gets. It sounds like something you'd hear in the ATF days where Chino sings like he's talkin to the crowd in the beginning. Then Abe's fuckin killing those drums at the 2min mark with that floaty chorus. "I can feeeeeeel itttttt, can youuuuu feeeeeeel itttt"
Word?
Yea, at first listen it felt like it flipped into too many flows/switchups. But the more I listened it sounded so much better. And now I love it!
Locked Club is the man
The whole record is the shit from what I've read and I am going to bed and I will revisit you guys in a few days. If I revisit you tomorrow, it's because I failed on something. It's not fail. Let's let you guys enjoy.
locked club is nasty!

Same here! There's so many layers to this album. It reminds me of some of Tools albums where you simply can't catch everything even within the first few listens

Locked in.
Hi everybody, longtime lurker here. For those who have heard the new one, is there anything related to the track Chino played on Mixlr 2 years ago?
I come to appreciate MOTM a lot more too. It just punches you right in the throat after ITAYATT closes.

Damn ITAYATT didn't make the cut? This whole album exceeded my expectations by far tbh. And I was lil skeptical at first.
Locked club is so damn groovy. Love it. Probably my favorite
Infinite source is like a 90s punk rock song. Think blink 182. Love Steph's harmonics on it.
infinite source reminds me of the Smiths a bit. Can't put a finger as to why hahaha
Can I get a link in my pm pls??

I can't stop saying it. The boys made something very special.

Yeah I didn't like locked club on the first listen, it's definitely a grower
Metal dream beats all
Locked Club has such a haunting and sexy chorus. I love the underlaying vocals in the chorus after he sings "I can feel it." I think Chino says "Feel you (something), through your body." and Abe's drumming is mint.
Can someone send me a link please?

I'm thinking as of right now:

2) I Think About You
3) Milk Of The Madonna
4) Ecdysis
5) Departing The Body
But my list is definitely subject to change. I'm interested to see how my thoughts will change over time, there's a lot going on in this album to latch onto.
WE HAVE MADE IT, LADS! (signed up just to post this)
I'll try to keep recency bias in check but I'm definetly enjoying this more than anything since atleast koi. Very much enjoying it.
Someone send me the link so I can listen in my car
Hey, can i get the link please?
woah departing the body's intro is...woag :o
i see the NIN comparison someone made before in it. i'll raise you this: the glitchy guitar bits remind me of BOTH deceptacon's "le tigre" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjNln9mXuTI) via that song's riff and strangely enough the glitchy vocals that start off yeule's "anthems for a seventeen year old" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XffxfvcLFA)???

locked club 𓆙
cruise out in style
(?)
stepping out proud from the gates
(?) true
we accept
(?) one place
we're locked in
(?)
or be locked/left out
(?)
or be locked/left out
rise from the pools
(?)
while stirring up the god from the water
rising (?) closer to the truth
locked in step feeling the crowd locked in
(?)
or be locked/left out
(?) pray
or be locked/left out
i can feel it
(?)
i can feel it (i can feel it)
i can feel it (i can feel it)
collapse in your room
preparing your strength
(?) you feel from the contact
so in love with the calm and the chaos
closer to god, closer to space, locked in
dream (?)
(?) or be locked/left out?
(?) dream of (?)
or be locked/left out
and you feel it
(?)
(through your body?)
and you feel it
i can feel it (i can feel it)
can you feel it?
(feel it? very spaced out and high pitched vocals)

I Think About You All the Time is one of Deftones greatest achievements. Such a beautiful song..legit gives me chills
Yooo can someone link me. I'm so hyped
Anyone else think that the leak from alterportal sounds kinda muddy? my mind is a mountain for sure sounds better on spotify to my ears. Probably not gonna spin it again until Friday.

I apologize but i really could not give less of a fuck :o
I like that more or less half of the album consists of songs that are instant earworms, and the other half doesn't click immediately. More meat to chew on, the songs that don't click in an instant mostly turn out to be favorites in the end, while the instant earworms remain good but I grow tired of more quickly.
Compared to Ohms which I felt like I knew through and through after two listens. This is definitely some deeper shit.
The happier sounds remind me a lot of the middle section of Gore, not gonna lie, but of course with much better production.
All in all after two listens it feels like a very varied record with again much to learn as a listener still. It also sounds very cohesive, which I always like in a record.

Agreed on all fronts
Also want to point out that Locked Club is an early favorite of mine (next to the singles we've already heard). I also love love love the bass in Ecdysis.

Ecdysis: I didn't think they would wait until Sergio was gone to write a Quicksand song. Lmao.
Banger. Love it.
Only listened to it once last night. Was floored after the first listen. Went to bed so happy!!
The groove on this thing is killer. Can't wait to hear it in perfect quality!
Abe is just so freaking sick. God Damn.
And that Deep Voice / spoken word on departing the body. Had me like WTF. I loved it. Song was a 10/10 for me. Maybe my favorite closer ever. By far the most interesting and cerebral and ethereal/ hard to wrap your head around album they've maybe ever done! And that's SO what I wanted this time!!
Last 2 records really missed that IMO. I felt after you listened to them 2 times you knew them.
bro this album is magical - departing the body actually makes you leave your body
This. Album. Is. Majestic.
Soooo... for those who have listened, where does this album fall compared to the others? Instant classic? Middle of the road?
When Chino said it had a reinvigorated sound, he really meant it.

It is far too soon for me to rank. I've only listened 4 times. The best word that I can use to describe the new album is "Magnificent". It's very good. I just need more time to process it.

Great comment
Done listening to album. Despite the short duration there's indeed a lot to unpack. It very much feels like old-school and modern Deftones blending together, one second it's giving me KNY vibes, the next it reminds me of Adrenaline. Cut Hands in particular took me aback, this is old school nu metal straight up. For a band of metalheads in their fifties, they really don't sound tired. It's almost like they're fighting a midlife crisis, and winning.
I don't think this is gonna bring Vesanic back here necessarily, but I think most people are gonna enjoy this record.
🚨 Important Announcement 🚨
A leak of the upcoming record has surfaced online. Out of respect for the band and their work, this thread will now be closed until the official release date.
We ask everyone to support the band by waiting for the proper release and avoiding sharing or discussing leaked material.
Thank you for understanding and for continuing to support the band.

Is this not out yet over there? No spoilers from me. I'm mixed on it but then I've been mixed on almost everything after S/T.
I enjoy the album a lot. The world isn't suddenly different now that Private Music is out, but I'm quite happy about this record, being a fan of old-school Deftones and modern Deftones alike. Some tracks to me were instant bangers, some are growing on me.
Current favorites for me are Milk of the Madonna, Cut Hands and Departing the Body.

According to one dataminer on Reddit, a documentary.
I feel a lot better about the album after a second listen. Funny how a second go can change your mood. I was NOT feeling Infinite Source to ITAYATT that first time.

Also there are rumors that private music is a double album and the next half comes out next month
Maybe that's why it took so long?

anyone know where the footage for the rosemary alt video's from? looks like a really old movie
I was hoping to hear it tonight but I can't stay up until midnight.
There was a user on Reddit earlier today that claimed to be a record store employee and they said that they have a 'big announcement' coming and that infinite source is the song that everyone should be looking at (for info I guess). I'm choosing not to believe this only because I haven't seen official news yet.

the video definitely seems to reference past albums -- there was a clip of a white horse, a clip of a koi pond, and the statue of mary in the thumbnail for the video preview on youtube was also in the video. just one i wouldn't have thought of much, but three?

I feel like IF that rumor was true (like a double album), wouldn't his post be removed immediately?
This has been absolutely awesome. Bravo!
I am getting a lot of memories back over on channel 3. this is very cool
Just wanted to say this is my first Deftones album rollout. I'm watching the Privatemusic tv thing and it's so unbelievably awesome. I can't wait to hear the album! There's a ton going on in my life and this might be the only thing keeping me sane at the moment. I'm hoping the album hits.
Guy who said that there's a double album is trolling.
love the video for cXz!

yeah i think it was slowed down like 5-10%, I think the song sounds better that way.

What a great time to be a Deftones fan, holy shit. They really spoiled the fans with this whole rollout. And most importantly, they came through with an absolute gem with private music. I'm only liking it more and more with each listen.

three different channels streaming at the same time for about two hours which you could flip through.
they were playing random vintage films and music videos. the deftones stuff was their music vids (with sometimes the band's reaction as they were watching it on a big screen), live footage (nothing new), behind the scenes extracts and what's now been uploaded to their YouTube channel. culminated with a live set of mmiam, dai the flu, infinite source, entombed and motm

Enjoy bro! Hope you love it as much as I do!!!
I feel like it took a few listens to really grow on me just because this album was so much to chew on.
However, I must now say that Private Music is without a doubt, an absolute masterpiece.
After that intro in departing the body where Steph's DOOMY Riff kicks in and Chino sails over the music . My God that's as good as it gets for me my friends. That's all I need. They made my favorite album closer of all time.
Steph has such a fresh sound on this record.
That creepy, haunting riff, with the flowing sounding air in the background sold me on the entire album on my third listen. Departing the Body is my favorite track as of today. What I like the most about this album is it has sprinkles of almost everything they have done, musically. It's like a perfect witches brew, with every album throw into it!
I think about you all the time is on another level. My favorite of the album.
Hope everyone enjoys or is enjoying the new album! The PMTV stream was incredible. Never have I enjoyed spending 3 hrs enjoying Deftones as much as I did watching that. The new album is absolutely incredible, and getting better by the day.
Well I listened to the album again and I stand with my opinion. Private music is a masterpiece 10/10 from me.
It really is that good.
cXz is my clear favorite so far. It has a super melodic chorus, but the verses sound a little like the main riff from When Girls Telephone Boys. The band does such a good job of creating tension and heaviness throughout this album without requiring Chino to scream over everything.

Chino doing less screaming on this album, is what makes the album so refreshing to hear, for me. The chorus' let his voice soar, and it's impossible to not sing a long to it.

I have had to re-listen to "Locked Club" and "cXz" a few times to really get a feel for them. I'm still not entirely sold on the spoken word delivery on "Locked Club" but damn the whole song is so good. THAT is the experimentation I wanted so I can't dislike the song. For "cXz" I was put off by the disconnectedness of the chorus and verses in the first half of the song. They seem to not fit together so well until the song continues. I think those two songs will have to grow on me more (and will likely become two songs I'll listen to often). Otherwise, upon more listens of the album I can't help but feel I genuinely enjoy every song. There's not a single song that I genuinely dislike or think is subpar. I'm so grateful to experience this!
Fortunate enough to be listening since the leak ;) Idk if its just because I turned 40 this summer and have been a fan since I was 14, but I had tears in my eyes at times on first listen.
Groove of locked club. That bass/drum combo on ecdysis? infinite source has a straight 00s summer pop punk vibe to it. love the dreamy bridge of souvenir. Surprised as hell to hear that acoustic guitar in "I think about you all the time" MOTM brings the energy right back up for the last few songs. Patton-esque vocals on cut hands. as well as other places on the album. Metal Dream chorus just makes you fucking ascend. Departing the body so dark starting out but then so ethereal. Big interstellar/2001 vibes. Zane Lowe is right about the Nick albums having that nighttime/neon vibe. you hear so much with each listen. Really hope they stick with Nick (lol) going forward. I could write so much more but I don't wanna wall of text.
They should be really proud of this one. Such a cohesive album. It's gonna be a crime if they just play the singles.
Masterpiece.
Agreed, they should stick with Nick for any future albums. Like it or not, he brings out the best in them somehow.

I felt the same exact way with everything you said here. This might be my favorite deftones record. Excited to see how it ages. I absolutely had tears with this one and haven't felt that kind of joy in a while . I really needed it. It's incredible what music can do . This record flows so perfectly and the production is stellar. The perfect mix of everything they do well. Sober Chino sounds incredible and Steph sounds rejuvenated! Abe also leans more in the hip hop lane to me on this one and I think that's so freaking cool. What a beast.
And that acoustic guitar. 👌🏽
I really hope this isn't the last deftones record I ever get to hear but if it is I'm happy this one is so special. I really hope the music world realizes how rad this one is.
Just finished listen Private Music for the 1st time. I definetely didnt expect what I just heard, thats for sure. I dont know if its a good or a bad thing yet.
Favorites: My mind is a mountain, locked club, infinite source, souvenir (that synth is absolutely insane, loved it), metal dream (really fucking good).
Least favorites: probably cut hands and ITAYATT. The 1st one I thought it looked completely out of touch with the rest of the record. Not because of its heaviness, I just felt like Stef throwing a temper tantrum like "we need something heavy in this". The 2nd, Idk, Sextape 2.0? I didnt listen a second time. Maybe its a grower.
Thats just me.
Overal? Prolly 7.5/10. I gotta give it to them, its not the same ol formula and sound, they tried and as usual, they experimented. Thats remarkable.
Inb4 people murder me.
Sigh.
I wouldn't be surprised if they only live play

Pm please. Wanna watch Dai the flu again
1st play through. It instantly hit on the first 3 tracks then it went into sorta grower territory for me.
I'm glad it did because it means I'll like it in the future.
It's defo weird. Same feeling I got when WP came out.
Quote from: nineteen on Aug 22, 2025, 08:54 AM1st play through. It instantly hit on the first 3 tracks then it went into sorta grower territory for me.
That is exactly what happened to me.
I came back in with Madonna/Cut Hands, but Infinite Source is a very jarring first listen. I could objectively tell that tracks that followed were "better" but because they weren't instant bangers, I had a bad nosedive with the album in the middle section.
I feel better about them now, but I still don't like Metal Dream. That's a skip for me.
Yeah the middle section is a grower for sure.
There aren't many clear hooks you hear in Souvenir, cXz and ITAYATT at first listen, at least to my ears.
After 20 or so listens Ive gained huge appreciation for ITAYATT, and Souvenir and cXz are starting to grow on me.
First and third part of the record though? Instant bangers.
I wouldn't say the structures are so much out there as White Pony. That record has so many weird sounds, it feels like you're on an alien planet when first listening, and with each listen the abstract sounds and structures get more familiar. I don't have that with any other Deftones record and that is why it remains my favorite.
But Private Music definitely is a very good album, and its more out there than Ohms for sure, which I like.
My only wish is that they would experiment more with song structures, even more than now. Almost every song is, if you look at it distilled: verse, half of the chorus, verse, complete chorus, bridge, chorus. I get it, it works, but I sometimes miss the days of Feiticeira where there isn't even a clear chorus. But Deftones never really were a band to do that often, and I can find peace with that.
Very happy with PM though, and at the same time it makes me even hungrier for more. Alas, thats the curse of being a fan, it's never enough. I'm happy they still make great new music this far in their career. Most bands when they're this 'old' bring out a few stinkers, but the entire discography of Deftones is solid as hell, and it makes it easy to be a fan of one of the few bands out there that truly makes me feel no shame at all being a fan of, no matter which part of their career you look at.
Well, maybe with chino @ waldrock and filthy handjobs as the exception lol
First full listen and I really enjoyed what I heard, very experimental in parts, no clear favourite at the moment, as it will take time to grow, it really does feel progressive and a continuation of DE/KOI/Ohms for me
This is going to sound like a log from a medical professional trying LSD in the 60s, but whatever.
my mind is a mountain:
Before the launch, it felt like a solid track but quite straightforward, and short. I already preferred madonna. Glad it was the opener.
*I listened to both this and madonna when the album dropped, and didn't skip them to just hear the new stuff. I wanted to hear them in context.
locked club:
At first the "swagger" vocal was throwing me off, whilst I loved everything about the instrumental behind it. I kind of chuckled when I first heard it, like "WTF is he doing now?". I've gotten used to it, especially after ~metal dream.
ecdysis:
Loved this one straight away, the riffs feel old school. I did laugh at the bass part in the intro though, it reminded me of Filter. ["Wow, this really is old school"] Like the verse from "Gerbil", or something. I was surprised that the opening synth didn't play a bigger part in the overall melody though.
infinite source:
This is where I started to have a bad trip with the first listen. The intro riff really threw me. Then it was so poppy and accessible, it just felt jarring. I've adjusted to it fine after the second listen.
souvenir:
On first listen, the battle between what my head was hearing and my heart was understanding continued here, because I needed some sort of immediate banger to pull me back in after infinite source, and souvenir wasn't that, on first listen. The chorus riff was unmistakable material, but it was kind of clichéd. The synth outro actually annoyed me first time because I desperately needed to move on to the first banger I could hear.
Now? Again, I've adjusted to it just fine on the second listen, it now comes across like a kind of slow, heavy Tempest/Rosemary/HeartsWires type of song. Though very straightforward musically.
cXz:
Of the four middle tracks, despite the fact that I was in a spiral, this was the one that my head was telling me was closest to what I wanted from the album. It just felt a bit unfamiliar. Now, it's easily in the top half of the tracks for me. It has one of the best choruses on the album.
i think about you all the time:
I expected this to be another WGTB from the title - I was expecting a sinister twist, but they played it straight. Based on the title, before hearing the album, I would've guessed that this was the heaviest track. It quickly transpired that this was a dreampop kind of thing, atmospherically it reminded me of when the demo of Xerces w/out vox first dropped. I also expected the drop in the track to come much sooner, and when it didn't I figured it was going to continue like the intro for the whole track. Again, I was much happier with it on the replay. It's a needed mellow lull in the album.
milk of the madonna:
Before the launch I easily preferred this to mountain, and I joked to my friend before midnight that "[Keanu Reeves uh-oh meme] What if madonna is the best track?". When the track list dropped, I was so glad that madonna wasn't the last song. One thing I hated about the Ohms pre-release (and I like that album more than most), is that they gave us the title track, which ended up being the final track. I don't like hearing the last track before the rest of the album, it means there's nothing new after it, you've already heard the last thing that the album has to say before the album's even dropped. Madonna's easily amongst the best tracks. The verses of madonna are probably my favourite individual part of the entire album.
cut hands:
What in the nu metal is this? Fortunately this banger followed madonna and I felt the first listen start to resurge. Liked it straight away. Like cXz, it has a weird chorus I'm really into.
~metal dream:
I'm sorry, I don't do the rap. I hate the verse, it's giving me Lana Del Rey. It sounds like "National Anthem". This one's set in stone, I'll never like it, and the chorus is just 'there' so it can't rescue the track for me. This helped me appreciate that locked club's weird vocals weren't all that weird.
departing the body:
Chino singing deep threw me off and I thought it was a surprise cameo guest appearance. Took a second listen to grow on me but is fine. Far from the greatest closers on all of their albums for me, despite the fact that I like it, it's easily in the bottom half but that's because on all of their previous albums, even albums I'm not overly keen on, the closer has generally been solid. Riviere for instance is the only song on SNW I'm 100% ok with.
This is still fluid, but I think it's setting:
1. locked club
2. milk of the madonna
3. cut hands
4. cXz
5. ecdysis
6. i think about you all the time
7. departing the body
8. infinite source
9. souvenir
10. my mind is a mountain
11 ~metal dream
The whole rollout for this album was amazing, last night the Deftones Theatre and BTS was fun and the life performance was so special...I'm so glad I waited to listen until midnight last night. Listening to it in complete darkness with my headphones was perfect. About to wake n bake and get more listens in

If you can send me your archives of the ripped broadcasts I'd really appreciate it. I also saw how you could skip through them on mobile and couldn't figure out a way to save them
My quick review of the album after sitting with it for 4-5 days. 10/10. I don't know where I'd place it in their discography but this is of the highest quality from them. Incredible that they can write such an album this far into their careers. I see why they are so proud of what they've made. I couldn't be happier for them and for us, the fans.

Guys the little synth touches on Ecdysis are absolutely incredible. Franks All over it and kills it. Takes the song to an entirely different level. I love it.
Fan since 1st album. Avoided singles and leak. On my 4th listen...
My first impression was that it achieved my hope of it sounding closer to DE and KNY than gore and ohms. At a few points I felt like the tempo felt the same throughout the album which is something I didn't enjoy about the later albums... after a few more listens that feeling is fleeting.
There isn't a song I don't like. There isn't a song that stands out to me as way better than any other. It's a cohesive collection of really good songs. The only gripe that comes to mind is I'd love to hear chino just slightly higher in the mix as this is the best he has sounded in a while. The mix in general is great though. I'm excited for the inevitable feeling of appreciating more things about it in future listens. That is my favorite part.
End result is: I got exactly what I wanted...The true follow up to KNY
Congrats deftones fans! Enjoy letting the album sink in and I hope you all enjoy it!
10 full listens is enough for a mini-review, right? Not that anyone cares, but here's my twin coppers...
Full album - 7.5/10
My Mind is a Mountain - I feel like Chino's vocals are the only strong thing about this track. Everything else just feels a bit paint-by-numbers and phoned-in. One of the weakest tracks on the album and I really wish it wasn't the opener.
Locked Club - Still not sure how I feel about this one. It feels sort of like a reject from Koi No Yokan. I do want to point out that Chino's delivery in the verses reminds me of some of Nick Cave's more aggressive stuff (and I mention this because I will always put Cave in the spotlight when I can AND because Chino's new look in the MMiaM video sort of reminds me of Cave).
ecdysis - Whoo that bass. And the chorus to this thing is gorgeous. The synths and the vocals are making some kind of magic there that I can't quite process. A stand-out on the album for me.
infinite source - Another one that I think is saved by the chorus but it's still a good song overall. I love the ending a lot (it's very Hum-like and that's always a plus). And honestly, those lyrics really make me worry that this might be their final album. It just feels/sounds like a farewell.
souvenir - that chuggy guitar in the chorus and what I guess is the bridge (?) is a monster. I like this one instrumentally but the vocal melody does nothing for me. But oooh boy I love that chilled/ambient ending and how it leads into cXz.
cXz - if I could take one song off the album, it would be this one. Snooze.
I think about you all the time - almost perfect. Top 5 deftones song of all time. I love every single thing about this song. The fade from loud to quiet at the very end is chilling. And after a few listens, I realize just how much Frank adds to this one.
milk of the madonna - I know it's a simple song but it's still in the running for my favorite on the album. That chorus is fire (hahahaseewhatididthere?). The re-playability factor on this one is endless.
cut hands - honestly, I really didn't like this one at first. I do think it seems a little out of place on this album (reminds me of Cntrl/Cmnd screwing up Diamond Eyes) but it really grew on me around listen #5. I like the messy, jumbled part around the midway point most of all. And yeah...there's a bit of Adrenaline/Fur nostalgia going on.
metal dream - if you pretend the verses don't exist (sounds like a forced and modernized "Epic" by FNM) this is an amazing song. I feel like it could be a sleeper for a lot of people...that song that ends up sneaking up on you after a few months and you realize how underrated it is.
departing the body - Favorite on the album. Not their best closer (that's Rubicon) but 2nd. Chino's deep voice took me by surprise (insert another Nick Cave similarity here). Everything is firing on all cylinders here. Vocals, lyrics, the entire band. God, what a track.

Same here, if anyone knows how to watch it, I'd be forever grateful please!

It gives me really strong "National Anthem" by Lana Del Rey. Sadly the chorus is bland for me, so there's no redeeming factor with this track.
In terms of albums, nothing dethrones the classic 4, this one sits in the next tier with DE/KNY/Gore/Ohms for me. So I'm happy enough with it.
SNW doesn't exist.
Also happy anniversary to me, 19 years on SL today.
Speechless. I love Frank channeling Roddy Bottum on Ecdysis. Reminds me a lot of faith no more. And departing the body shaping up like pink maggot and ending just like it like the heart beating and giving out. Milk of the Madonna starting out like lovers. I have so much more to say, but did any of those things stand out to anyone else? How about Chino counting down in departing the body? It reminded me of David Bowie Ziggy Stardust album spaceman type shit. Instant classic for me. Upon first listen, I'm going nine or 9 1/2. I think there was a couple missed opportunities, but I feel half retarded for even saying that because they are not my songs. Just saying there were parts during Stef's chugging here and there where it felt a little empty And boring or repetitive for a few seconds. But every song is amazing. Infinite source reminds me a lot of of blink-182 or something like that. I just love the harmonies in that song and they pulled off those guitar parts flawlessly and somehow made it work.
Hate to have to make the line longer and get in it, but if anybody could send me a link to that radio broadcast, that would be so nice. Man, I'm glad pretty much. Man am I glad that almost Everyone here is happy with the record! Someone pointed out about the ramp up to this being a Snoozefest and then now understanding why. I wanna feel those feels if somebody could send a link. Back to this bad ass piece of art. This one was a long time coming I would say all of 18 years. My favorite since Saturday night wrist, and has potential of becoming my favorite record. I sure hope so.

Damn Saturday night wrist doesn't exist? I hate that for you. But music is just an opinion. I get it. I'm really sorry about that though. I will say that that record took a long time for me to digest and now I love it.

Even with more waves and space and time this record still feels so fresh!!!lol
The only skip for me is cZe , it just has 2 alternating part. I can listen to it , but I'd rather skip.
For literally every other song, it's hard for me to pick a favorite. It's that good, even if it has a skip I'm still giving it a 10/10.
I'm very confused how people are saying there are no hooks, this album shines in its hooks! So grateful for this record.

Here we go...
Did you manage to not listen to it till now?
First ride in progress...
So what did you think of the album?
This Band just continues to Own.
Fearlessly experimental. Groovy, grimy and beautiful. The push and pull we all love about Tones in full effect. Nick did a great job here as well. Expect many more spins before I really dig in on PM but first blush? Outstanding addition to Deftones catalog.
So cool seeing so many old faces here!
The album is outstanding and heterogeneous. gorgeously produced too. maybe there's not a song in the album that's 10 points like lets say Feiticeira or Lotion. But Most tunes are above 8 or 9. really creative record.
We have deftones for years and years to come
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 22, 2025, 06:12 AMI love how Lance's vocals sound.
he used to sing in a great band produced by Shaun Lopez, which also briefly toured with deftones in 2010. Welcome to EightfourSeven
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LShIIKY9Wx8
There's a link on Facebook with the live set from last night-anyone who watched it did you notice the chick dialed 976-Evil on the phone before Infinite Source played? And in the drawer there was a white pony figurine?
When they played Dai the flu, I lost it. So sick
Quote from: Deftones-argentina on Aug 22, 2025, 03:50 PMSo cool seeing so many old faces here!
Thanks for that Buffalo live remaster forever ago. Sounds weird but I've remembered you often because of it.
Don't want to be a Debbie Downer but Brent Hinds passing kinda cast a cloud over release day.
Trying to soak up the album today. The colours it evokes is something very different for the band.
Quote from: Deftones-argentina on Aug 22, 2025, 03:50 PMSo cool seeing so many old faces here!
100% this. Hello amigo.
Good to also see Tarkil in here as well and so many familiar faces.
Private music has AOTY potential.
Two songs that have grown on me: Ecdysis (quite complex at a first listening but it's awesome) and cXz (love the organized chaos feeling)
Happy to see some love for cXz in some places as it seemed like it was being treated like the black sheep of the album early on. Dig that one.
Also saw fantano seemed to enjoy locked club and ecdysis on his stream today which is cool I guess.
I don't think I've really seen anyone hate or dislike cXz, moreso just expressing that this has been the least impressive track for them in the short time the album has been out. I think the song is fine.
That's so funny, it's my favorite track. I think it's the chorus. Something about that melody sends me.
Shows how much variety there is to enjoy in the band's catalogue. Currently the one track I'm feeling hooked on is Infinite Source, it feels rather joyful, which I find refreshing, and I'm someone who usually prefers the darker/heavier stuff.

Yes. Every fan I've come across has liked one particular aspect of their music or another. I think that's so cool.
Absolutely! I dig how some of my early favorites are not shared by others. While others that don't hit with me as well so far are beloved.
It's great to see so many of you here that go way back as well. Good Times!
Man, actually after learning souvenirs real lyrics it made me love that song. If any of y'all are not sure what the lyrics are there read them and think about it. It's a great fucking written song.
Ecdysis is my current favorite after it was around the middle in my internal track ranking.
That chorus goes so hard, and the ending just makes me float.
Its also the first time listening to the record while being high. The layers really stand out then.
Also, Ecdysis seems to be about all the fires in California and all the flooding going on in North Carolina and New Orleans in the past few years and all the shit going on here in our country and abroad. It seems like Chino understands that that is what mother nature needs to do to cleanse itself of us. It's scary in the sense of when you think about it in real life, but what a beautifully written song, the snake shedding its skin, the bug shedding its exo skeleton, mother nature shedding what we do to her....I fucking love every track on this record. If I had to have a weak track, it would be MMiaM And it's a fine track. What a gem. I could go on and on about what I think based on the lyrics and the lyrics is really what stands out to me to be honest even on top of how great everybody is also ON ALL cylinders.

This is actually very true. Solid point. I am in this camp. It's not absolute trash to me.

yes. you can tell that everyone's feeling great when it comes to the instrumentation on this record. the overall soundscapes really remind me of white pony and that dark, spacey gritty sound it has at times (not to mention DE and KNY)
Quote from: RikshawHoward on Aug 22, 2025, 09:53 PMThat's so funny, it's my favorite track. I think it's the chorus. Something about that melody sends me.
Yeah the chorus of cXz is what drew me to it and it's the one phrase from the album that has been repeating in my head all day.
First 4 songs are great. Best album since Ohms.

Had just 24 Hours with the new record.
Crazy that after "9" Albums this may be Tones most experimental?
The push and pull. I mean we know why we love this Band. So many different takes on the best track, or a grower.
Kinda what makes this addition to the catalog so damned exceptional.
The Golden Age of Deftones guys! And we are here for it!

Straight up this Record is a gift. Brilliant. Got me by the balls!
I dig cXz but that first riff section sounds a little brittle with everything going on in one space (almost mono sounding?) before it opens up to how the rest of the album typically sounds.
Probably a conscious choice but gotta get my head around that one. That's what I noticed anyways.
quick review and track by track rundown after listening the album like 15 times
Its good, easily their best since DE. Some great moments but also filler. I know Steph is pretty lazy these days with riffs but jeez. Highlight is easily Chino's vocals. He is really using those 7ths and 9ths in his vocal melodies and they sound great. The whole album has a noticeable shoegaze influence
Mountain: I can't believe that the album opens with such a boring song. Only thing saving this song is Chino's vocals and even then I'm just waiting for the song to end
Locked club: Verses are super fun, the chorus feels out of place. There is not a lot of dynamics in the song but its fine
eclysis: good song, the vocal melody in the bridge thats in major is nice touch
infinite source: yea its super poppy and you were able to guess the chorus vocal melody before it even started but I like it. Love the verses with that single maj7 chord. Chino's vocals in the bridge remind me of Morrissey but I can't remember what song
souvenir: verses remind me of Team Sleep which I love. The whole song is good. I could go without the synth interlude in the end but that's just me
cXz: best song in the album. There's a sense of urgency that is not really found in any of the other songs on the album (apart from maybe Madonna). I had to skip back to the chorus like 5 times when I first heard the vocal melody, incredible. The song is pretty straight forward so I get why folks might not like it
I think about you all the time: This is just a poor man's sextape I'm sorry. When I first heard Chino talk about this song in the Apple interview I got kinda pessimistic already. Might be the first (and only) skip on the album
Madonna: great song and great energy, glad that it was single which means the band is going to play it live often
cut hands: great song, reminds me of cmnd/ctrl but with better chorus and bridge. Panic chords in the end are fun, wish the band would use those kinds things more in their music
metal dream: I like the verses idk why. The chorus is also great. The song is pretty straight forward which is fine
departing the body: good song and a great closer. One of their better closers actually
yea its not white pony, but its not trying to be. Going to be listening this album probably the whole fall.

Good review, more down to earth.
To anyone with a physical copy, is Lance or anyone extra listed on the credits?
Also, was there talk about an alternative version of milk of the madonna being streamed with Chino's voice on a lower pitch or something like that?
whats up fuckers,assuming u never seen a mexican yoshi before?
after a couple of listens of the new record, im happy to say its very,very good.they still got it.
just like atf and s/t it really picks up in the second half of the record.
the first four songs feel like a way to lure in new fans but that's perfectly fine.
everyone sounds great on the record it, everyone - inlc.fred & nick
best to worse:
1) cut hands: a 10/10 song that has everything i love with deftones. love the firestarter/prodigy/mosqito sounds in the bridge
2) milk of the madonna: great somewhat generic sounding song, but deftones make it awesome.single notes by stef sounds like cant even breathe, although cant even breathe are power chords
3) departing the body: haunting beautiful closer. most down pitch chino i've ever heard in a pure defones song.the beginning reminds me of chino in their japan cover "ghost"
4) cxz: love the chord in the verse, cool stef song altogheter
5) souvenir: lovley chorus, here is where the record gets going for real
6 locked club: awesome spoken word stuff by chino, reminded me with "all hells breaking loose" by kiss
7 mmiam: swerve city sounding/ we're back again/ intro to the album - i dig it
8) infinite source: maybe the poppiest i've ever heard them, but they get away with it
9) metal dream: filler vibes but i like it, a little weird fever dream esque
10)itayatt: sounds like a closer to a team sleep album, i like it though.typical chino song
11) ecdysis: start out great with the 90ies sounding effects like curve or kidney thieves, awesome groovy bass,but i just cant stand the synths on the chorus, only let down on the album: those synths in the chourus. i hope they will gow on me
overall a solid 8/10 record, possibly the best effort since self titled back in 2003.
see you in five years!
Quote from: Moana91 on Aug 23, 2025, 08:48 AMAlso, was there talk about an alternative version of milk of the madonna being streamed with Chino's voice on a lower pitch or something like that?
The livestream Thursday night, Madonna was slowed down a few bpm's.. not sure why but it was a bit slower.
I do find it interesting that cXz, one of the songs on here that sounds the most like old school Deftones (dark, dissonant, tension-filled), is one a lot of people are "ehhh" on, while infinite source, the song that sounds the least like old school Deftones and more like a pop-punk song, is the one I've seen praised the most. I'm not trying to infer anything here! Just find it interesting. It's almost like people like bright, happy sounding songs or somethin'.
Obviously new younger fans, unexperienced of life (i.e adorable fools.)When life hits hard and has pushed them down in their shoes, they will find comfort and understanding in cxz, just give them some time :)
Regarding Cxz, i backlogged a bit in the thread, someone said it only had two parts. Thats not true. It goes :
verse / chourus / verse / chourus / paus-break
But after the short break its:
verse / BRIDGE/ Paus-break / verse chords BUT WITH CHOURUS MELODIES. Thats an insanely cool way to end a song
Yeah, there's a lot going on there. Lyrically it's my favorite so far too.
I saw them in Vancouver last night - killer show. They played my mind is a mountain, infinite source, and milk of the madonna off the new album. All three were great live and fit in the setlist with all their other hits. Inifnite Source is especially groovy in the live setting. I was pleasantly surprised.
And Steph was there! (I was worried he wouldn't come to Canada...)
I might write a more detailed review in the other thread if I get the time...
It's fucking amazing how fast every Deftones album just grows on you. I didn't really care for Infinite Source and Locked Club at first 2 listens now all of a sudden I'm LOVE with them. 😩
Infinite just has this warm summertime wholesome uplifting feel to it. Like a big hug. While Locked is groovy as FUCK and has some sick Prodigy vibes. Didn't like the spoken word stuff at first too but now i'm cool with it.
Still can't get in to get in to cXz tho..
Anyone has a feeling the song "cut hands" is about situation with Sergio?
i actually waited until release day to listen to the final 9 songs, since the leak was just 3 days before hand. that is the first time i've waited since saving 6 songs for white pony's release. ATF i got after it was out for 7 months, and i got adrenaline in late dec 1995, a few months after i recorded the 7 words video(was a huge fan from that point. i was 16, now 46. 30 years a fan). but anyway, yea after only 2 full listens i'm not very familiar with it yet, but it is really good, as per usual. but this one seems a little better than the past few. i really like that fire starter sounding sample in cut hands. milk of the madonna is a major standout track as well. also the video for infinite source is among their best ever. all the visualizers on youtube are really good. i had to listen to it for the first time using them, because my cd didn't show up. but that worked out well, cause they really added to the experience
Looks like aside from the 3 new tracks they threw Cherry Waves, Entombed and Engine #9 back on the setlist last night.
Wow!

Once again, this record SLAPS. I have many of the songs rated a 9 or 10/10. One of their best in my opinion, but yet again everyone has their own opinions!

Yeah, it's the world we live in I guess. Did anyone watch "Nocturne's" reaction to the record? I believe it was a first time face reveal as well. Black dude who loves Deftones. I say that because I never would have guessed not that it matters. But I always try to put a face with a voice I've heard over and over and that I'm interested in and this time I was like wow in a good way. He was blown away by the record as am I. Pretty cool shit and I can't wait to watch his video on the record like he has done for so many others.

6 locked club: awesome spoken word stuff by chino, reminded me with "all hells breaking loose" by kiss
7 mmiam: swerve city sounding/ we're back again/ intro to the album - i dig it
8) infinite source: maybe the poppiest i've ever heard them, but they get away with it
9) metal dream: filler vibes but i like it, a little weird fever dream esque
10)itayatt: sounds like a closer to a team sleep album, i like it though.typical chino song
11) ecdysis: start out great with the 90ies sounding effects like curve or kidney thieves, awesome groovy bass,but i just cant stand the synths on the chorus, only let down on the album: those synths in the chourus. i hope they will gow on me
overall a solid 8/10 record, possibly the best effort since self titled back in 2003.
see you in five years!
Holy shit! You dig the record? And I think you might be the only person in the know that I know of that rates it that high? I really do think it has the potential of being top-tier with time. Right now it's the only piece of music I'm even listening to outside of some old M83 stuff I haven't heard or haven't heard in a while and some MGMT stuff that my daughter who is young is starting to get into and I'm remembering how much I loved that years ago. Electronic music seems to be the thing in my life around me with others. Nothing new to me, but it has been brought back to me ... also cool that they brought in a lot of electronics in this record I guess more so than usual? Not a musician.But this new record is something else I don't even know what to say. I just remember you back in the day being hard to please and I don't mean that to be a dick. It's actually refreshing and great to hear that you like the record! Fuck, yeah and cheers. Are you still trying to piss the shit off of the porcelain? Always liked that
Still no links to private music TV? If anyone has it, it will never bring any monetary gain to you. Throw it out there if you have it. I would genuinely appreciate it and let you know that in return it's as much as I can give. Share the band share the wealth.

I love M83, especially Before The Dawn Heals Us and Saturdays=Youth. I actually think I first discovered them way back when from Chino name dropping them in an interview around the Diamond Eyes/Koi No Yokan era

Hell, yeah fucking awesome. My 11-year-old daughter....I heard a sound from her room and went in there and low and behold she was listening to them via someone else and we've been Vibing the last few days through her 11th birthday. My what a magical musical week it has been. I don't even know what to think when I go back to work tomorrow and have no control over what is going on, but I shouldn't have control because it's art right? These fucktard's all over the place comparing the new record to Koi and diamond eyes drives me nuts. Was I that way at some point? Oh my God please tell me no lol

Sure! And I can totally promise you that I will share anything to you sent to me because I've been asking now a lot. Sometimes you get some snobs that think they have something that is actually going to generate money overtime, but they don't realize that's not going to happen. It's pretty funny actually. But I would definitely appreciate that and return the favor if the opportunity comes. And I did see the live concert, which was phenomenal. It would be a crime to starve any real fans from that via the band. But all the rest of the shit that sounds like a broken up documentary in different forms and channels seems like something somebody has to capture either as a group or released later from the label or band for all of us to enjoy. I'm hoping that's the case. I'm so old that I have more to worry about than chasing down band shit but their music means so much to me and has for so many decades that it would be sad and a missed opportunity for someone like me to not see everything they showed the other night. How many people seen that that could give a fuck less? It's crazy. I only ask for so much in life and I love everybody and everything in it and if I don't, I kill it.

I sent both you guys a dm with links with all 3 channels + the live performance. You guys can thank @adigital for the original files. He sent me the link and I just uploaded to this link bc its easier to download (higher daily download limit). Audio is kinda weird tho.
I'd be interested in privatemusic.tv files also 🙏
Great record! Reminds me of SNW with the experimentation which is perfect since SNW is the dearest to me being THE record that got me into the band (after falling in love with Team Sleep record).
At the moment cXz is the earworm that I find myself humming.

people are comparing it to koi and diamond because the band members mentioned a few times in interviews that they always saw the two albums as an incomplete trilogy and wanted to finally complete it with nick. like sunbath said, it also reminds me of SNW.
ITAYATT sounds like Coldplay covering Riveré.

I might be alone in this, but... what is the fun in that? I know 5 years is a long time, but I kinda like the build up (maybe a compromise, halfway? lol). Ofc, sometimes it leads to disappointment, but when it doesnt, its awesome. No?
I'll take a couple B-sides and a cover in a year.
So what does "future heavy" mean to y'all? Now that the record and rollout is here.
The record keeps getting better and better for me! I'm hearing new little things with each listen You can really tell that they took their time with this one and thought it through. I feel like each member really delivers a top tier performance.
I also think the record really flows nicely. Right now I'm loving the transition into metal dream and then into departing the body.
Less Chugga chugg this time which I love! The guitar sounds fresh and epic!
great record. I am 100% satisfied. Anyone here catch when Stef says the 90s recording sounds and feels like the days of video recording? (In the pm music tv channel) lmfao!!! that dude is smoked the fuck out. Like permanently maybe. Of course it feels that way dog!!! Lmao
This is a 9.5/10. People will hate, but I think people hold WP, KNY and DE in a different light. I think there are more songs I would skip on KNY and Diamond Eyes than this album. It is experimental, a perfect mix between radio friendly, and a heavily layered deep album with a lot to listen to. It does this at times in the SAME SONG! You could listen to it once and not hear the whole thing, does that make sense? What an awesome album from them 25 years on from White Pony. Chino sounds great as always, and I fantasize about him being able to sing like he used to on this album. It would be their best work. Don't agree? Don't care. I LOVE IT!!!
I remember a few months back, people were swearing to have reliable info that the album would come out on November the earliest... and we were hoping for a first single being played on this current North American Tour.
Others were anticipating DDLD to be the place for album announcement for an 2026 release.
I can't believe it's August 25th and the album has been out for a whole week now.
Ok about 10 listens in and it is clicking.
This could totally be an age thing but does anyone find this and Ohms are better at a medium volume? I love listening to them loud but I find these albums are too loud to crank
Surprised to realize that private music is currently number two on the Qobuz download charts:

Lol, unfortunately it's based on Record Sales for the first week. Closest they came was with White Pony that debuted at #2, just behind Stained "Break the Cycle". If memory serves.
Am simply overwhelmed, again, what a great album <3

Quote from: Martin on Aug 25, 2025, 10:00 PMAm simply overwhelmed, again, what a great album <3
Me too. Although I am surprised to feel like I need to give it a break which I have for almost 36 hours now or more? I'm hoping it's just something else. I know what I mean by that but I don't. I've probably listened to the record 15 times and I only listen to it all the way through now. I love that synth in ecdysis so much and when I attach myself to stuff like that, I am so afraid of listening to it again and playing it out from experience. i'm glad my life is pretty full though and that I like other stuff. I've been dissecting the latest cure record for a long time now. But doing the same with it, being very careful with it not to overdo it. I wasn't always that way and it's weird that Deftones albums number two through five never burnt out on me. Maybe around the fur. But that was then.
Also, for what it's worth channel 3 is a waste of time for me. I have like 40 minutes left but so far it's just odd and foreign videos. Probably Chino 100%. Anyways, one and two were pretty cool but three so far I haven't even Been reminded of them. Maybe it's just not for everyone. The Patron shit was cool? Not that I haven't seen it live. And thank you guys again openly for all the people that shared that with me. The channels and the live performance.... Thank you so much. Enjoyed it. Edit: (again) Chino remix of war song? All right, OK worth it
This record is the best of this time. If any of the other releases dropped at this time they wouldn't hit like this one does. Its all relative. Not sure if this makes sense. But it does to me. Plus the bourbon

I finally had a chance to listen to the album Friday night.
Before Friday, I had only heard "My Mind Is a Mountain", then tried to avoid most other spoilers.
I think it is really good. I'm really happy that Deftones is still putting out great music in 2025. Just like all their other albums, this one has it's own vibe. It has their distinct sound, but also goes in some directions they haven't explored before. The song writing is really good. Abe's Drums and Franks Synths/Samples are what surprised me the most.
I am not sure where I rank with their other albums. That is usually something I won't really think about for a few years.
____________________________________________________________
But I do have some critiques...
Disclaimer: I listened to a CD on some good quality speakers.
The mix/master on Private Music sounds a lot different from all their other albums to me.
The best way I can describe it... A lot of the bass sounds like it is just a constant low sine wave 808 coming from a synthesizer, that just keeps changing to the root note of whatever chord is being played.
It just feels like you are getting hit with a brick wall of bass all the way from the beginning to the end. Which may have been intentional? But it seems to crowd all the other instruments a lot and fatigues my ears more than any other album they have done.
I really don't want to be negative, but thought I would share. Maybe someone else has mentioned something similar already.
Another Disclaimer: I am honestly not sure how much of this is caused by the style of bass playing and how much is the mix/mastering choice.
Another Disclaimer: I'm really not trying to hate on the new bass player Fred. I have seen him play with Deftones live and he is great with that. I absolutely don't want to jump to any conclusions of what happened with the previous bass player Sergio (because we will never know every detail), and am not trying to take any sides.
Another Disclaimer: I am a bass player, so probably pay too much attention to bass when I listen.
In locked club, the way Chino sings:
"So in love with the calm... and the chaos (((chaos)))"
One of my favorite moments ever
Quote from: Bergerac on Aug 22, 2025, 10:55 AMecdysis:
Loved this one straight away, the riffs feel old school. I did laugh at the bass part in the intro though, it reminded me of Filter. ["Wow, this really is old school"] Like the verse from "Gerbil", or something. I was surprised that the opening synth didn't play a bigger part in the overall melody though.
I've mentioned this exact thing about Gerbil, but I don't think most get the reference. Glad to see someone else mention it.

Oh wow. When I heard it, I instantly thought of Filter. But was mostly thinking about "Hey Man Nice Shot". I just listened to "Gerbil" again now, and it is even more similar. Good ear.

don't see myself listening to anything else. just don't like the melodies in the other songs, they're either boring or plain ugly.
i really dislike diamond eyes and every subsequent album got better for me but this one doesn't really outdo ohms, i'd be fine if the boys called it quits after private music but good for them that they still have tons of traction

Only thing I can recommend it putting any EQ settings you may have on your stereo to flat or 0.
I think they mixed this album as loud as possible and that flat eq just is where it's supposed to be.

Why do you dislike Diamond Eyes? Not my favorite either, just curious...
huge difference in sound and feeling compared to their previous work, it's very straightforward and leans very closely to dad rock imo. also don't like the guitar which sounds like a motor boat. expectations were probably too high as this was my first album release as a fan. also king kong get some

The nick albums to me take away key elements of the Deftones sound. The darkness, haunting, mystique is stripped away with his production and they even said he helps them put songs together. This has made me like diamond eyes less.
I always loved DE, never was too fond of Koi. Terry Date is the only producer Deftones should work with. He gets it and understands how they should sound as evidenced by Ohms which is the only album post chi that has the chi era vibes.

I always loved DE, never was too fond of Koi. Terry Date is the only producer Deftones should work with. He gets it and understands how they should sound as evidenced by Ohms which is the only album post chi that has the chi era vibes.
Diamond Eyes, Koi No Yokan and Private Music are definitely the "brighter", more romantic even, uplifting albums of their catalog. I would even say there's something slightly more "pop" to them.

Yeah it sounds insincere. It's as if they took elements of what they thought people would eat up and mapped it out to give us this slop. Never thought Deftones would write a cash in album. Sad.
I see you've been here since 2008 and recognize your name from multiple posts, so I know you're not trolling.
To start, why would be Nick the one responsible for that supposed lack of emotion?

Yeah and this album made me notice that even more. People claim koi is their most atmospheric album, and I don't get this at all. The Terry albums are far more atmospheric.

This post talks in a way about this topic:
https://www.reddit.com/r/deftones/s/el2I0V4gKH
But in a favorable way to that dreamy side of Deftones, which I also tend to like more than the darkness as I grow older.
Terry should at the very least engineer everything they do.

You know what, the more I think about it the more I understand what you mean overall. There is an atmosphere to songs like Lovers that they sort of just lost starting with DE. Something about how Chino approaches the vocals maybe, or perhaps Chi had a lot more influence than we realize. But the SOUND on the albums post SNW is definitely different, with the exception of Ohms like you said. The Spell of Mathematics is the closest they've come I think to capturing that older haunting feeling.

Yes exactly. The nick albums sound more like standard rock and are more straightforward. It explains why those albums got so much mainstream praise. I didn't realize it as much until this newfound popularity, but now it's glaring.
It's more easily digestible. Songs like leathers sound like any metal band trying to sound ethereal. It sounds watered down to me. I'm liking DE less and less because of it.
And yes, spell is a masterpiece. The whole album does a great job capturing that vibe. The scream on this link is dead are so intense and unhinged. The screams on the Nick albums don't have that same emotion, unhinged feel. It feels very watered down and reigned in.
We sway in the wind... inside a haze.
And you speak your language... what am I to say?
I'll just wait for your limbs to touch me.
This usually happens when they release a new album, I gain a renewed appreciation for the previous one.
I loved Ohms the moment it came out. From Error's bridge/ending onwards it's amazing.
Also, hearing Sergio's backing vocals in Spell makes me sad. It's such a great addition in that song.

Yesss you get it. That part is perfection. The lyrics, the delivery, the atmosphere.
I love that chino stays in a lower register for a lot of that song. That breath-y whisper against heavy music is one of my favorite things about their sound and I always want more of it.

Same. It seems on the Nick albums, he does more traditional type singing even though it's still unique due to his style and voice, it's just not what I want from the band

He does it a little bit here and there. Second half of the cXz chorus for example, and in the verses of Milk.
Like, I was listening to Ohms and then went to private music, and Ohms feels more mature?
I still love the more accessible, straightforward nature of the Nick songs, but some are indeed corny and bad.

Yeahs it's a major contrast. They do sound more mature than the nick albums. The songwriting feels more natural and genuine w Terry too. They even said Nick basically puts the songs together for them.
I'm just really starting to dislike the Nick trilogy the more I think about it.
Chinos vocals are much more haunting and ominous with Terry. The entire band is. That's what makes Deftones special to me.

What's your take on Matt Hyde's work on Gore?
I also made this post on the Reddit. It describes it well imo.
Are the Nick albums for fans of more standard rock music?
I feel koi, DE, and PM are less atmospheric than most of their albums. I see people constantly claim koi is more experimental, but it's not at all lol. They're more straightforward and standard sounding. Self titled is a hazy dreamscape of doom. White Pony is like listening to Lost Highway by David Lynch in audio form. Ohms is an album that creates an atmosphere of a night time haunting drive. I feel the nick trilogy lovers are more fans of standard rock music.
About gore, I think it sounds bad but I appreciate what they were trying to do. Interesting ideas, but fell short. With Terry, I think it could have been special although some of the songs in general aren't my cup of tea.
There is something to that. Like I said, the most praised song on PM by reddit sounds like a pop punk song, and the least praised one sounds like old school Deftones. There's a reason Sextape became one of their most popular songs.
However, I'll also say this - while I can definitely understand liking Ohms instrumentally more than PM, Chino's performance is one hundred percent improved here IMO. He's grating and pitchy on more than a couple songs on Ohms. And even if DE and KNY was taking them in a more commercial direction, you have to at least admit he SOUNDS great on those records.

I much prefer how he sounds on ohms. He sounds good always, but he sounds almost too plain and some of the vocal melodies on PM are kind of standard imo.
About gore a bit more. NCould you imagine hearts/wires w terry production? Could seriously be a rival to digital bath. Imagine how pristine and haunting it would be. Acid hologram and geometric headdress as well were very interesting ideas.
I agree with all of that re: inkblades
And yeah, infinite source is a disgrace. Sure, it's a catchy song which I have zero issue with, but it's like the song was written with intent to cash in. I can't respect that and it saddens me.
Locked Club is my fav song on the album. The chorus is dreamy and dark which I love. The verses are great too.

The chorus on Pompeji is the best example of that for me. I think that song could have been incredible had he done something better with it.

One of my favorites too. Love the lyrics and yes, the bridge.
Also, the point needs to be made:
Steph's fundamentalism with the whole "philosophy of the power chord" has watered down the band's sound from DE onwards.
That stupid 7th string chugga chugga has dumbed down many of the new songs, regardless of who's producing.
Yeahhhh, that's true.
Yeah I miss those driving vibe riffs he used to constantly churn out. His riffs always sounded like you'd be driving to them and it was tremendous.
That's why Milk and cXz stand out to me.

After a lot of listens, I have to say the run of the first 5 songs is incredible, the standout being ecydysis for me, it makes me feel 100ft tall listening to it, fucking incredible. cXy onwards is still good, but that part of the album is still growing on me, like all Deftones albums I appreciate that, time will really be good to this album.

Completely agree.
Besides Mein, MOTM also reminds me of one of my favorite SNW demos:
That reminds me that for the longest time I've thought the inflection point of this band could have been as far back as Finger of Death. If that had been the guiding light for SNW and Chino and the gang had their stuff together, the Deftones that would have came out of that would have been my favorite incarnation of the band. That might be their best song never recorded. The live version is just so unreal and so unlike anything else.

You Deftones gatekeepers are annoying ASF. Your mind was made up on this album before it ever came up because you're upset they're not your little secret gem anymore.

ALL albums are carefully crafted. It's why they go into a studio to record them.
You know what I mean. This album is made for the new batch of fans and it's obvious. It sounds like AI generated Deftones and sounds so restrained. Emotionless.
lol no it doesn't. Get the shit cleaned out of your ears. Your rage bait is weaker than a wet paper bag.
Bro I'm sorry I don't like gradpop. No need to get so upset. You can enjoy it.

I think a lot of it is just younger people who just got into deftones or are more casual fans. Never had a Deftones album cycle and prob mainly like the TikTok tracks. This album was def made for them.
You Deftones gatekeepers are annoying ASF. Your mind was made up on this album before it ever came up because you're upset they're not your little secret gem anymore.

Nah I actually had extremely high hopes for this album. I was happy about their success and they then dropped this album and it's clear what the intent was. I don't need another ATF. I want a good album. I love ohms. It's one of their best. This, is not.
Also, I don't know how writing a dark album equates to being angry or "pissed off" lol. Ohms is a dark album. The cure been dropping dark albums forever. Doesn't mean it's angry.
anniversary of an uninteresting event is an incredible track that's dark and it's not angry at all. Idk man. Some people just don't really grasp it I suppose. I just don't enjoy Nicktoktones

SNW was an extreme low point for the band, while Nick got to record them when they were at their most focused.
In any case why are you so upset? You love the album, but some fans don't. Every fanbase has this because people connect with bands at different points in their career. No one is gatekeeping anything. You can still love the new stuff while others don't.

Loved this one straight away, the riffs feel old school. I did laugh at the bass part in the intro though, it reminded me of Filter. ["Wow, this really is old school"] Like the verse from "Gerbil", or something. I was surprised that the opening synth didn't play a bigger part in the overall melody though.
I've mentioned this exact thing about Gerbil, but I don't think most get the reference. Glad to see someone else mention it.
Holy shit that's the song that it reminded me of, I just couldn't think of the song.

don't see myself listening to anything else. just don't like the melodies in the other songs, they're either boring or plain ugly.
i really dislike diamond eyes and every subsequent album got better for me but this one doesn't really outdo ohms, i'd be fine if the boys called it quits after private music but good for them that they still have tons of traction
Infinite source and ITAYATT doesn't bore you but the others do? ...interesting...
I agree about souvenir, I like that song.

It's fine to not like the album, it's not fine to talk out of your ass and say this album is lazy and for the tik tok kids
Why some of you guys keep arguing about honest feedback some users in here gave? Who gives a fuck if he thinks its for newer fans/titktokers or not? Did you like the new record? Blast it til the end of the world then, man.
I liked the new record and I would have the same opinion even if everyone else in here hated it. I liked it because I liked it, not because its popular. Its like people giving two shits about "even Fantano seemed to like it". Who? C'mon now.
Is it my favorite? No, but thats fine. Its a really good, solid work and I'm enjoying a lot. 7.5/8 out of 10 is really good.
Just enjoy it. Let them have their opinions. It does not invalidate yours, right?
The drumming is way more simplified on this album too. It's much the same beat throughout with splashy cymbals than the tight intricate high hat, snare and toms that Abe usually does. Ohms was a masterclass in it. I wonder if PM is deliberately about the music serving the vocal?

Yeah you seem pretty upset.
It's okay to have different opinions folks. I can understand both sides. Myself I'm somewhere in the middle, but closer to the positive opinions. I like the album a lot, but I can see the song structures are at times a bit simple and the sound is pretty upbeat most of the time. I'm just glad they're still making good music, and I definitely don't think they're trying to sell out or something like that, but I can see how the current sound isn't for everyone. That's okay, the old classics won't dissapear all of a sudden. I like that the entire discography of the band is so diverse.
Join our tiktoooook or be left out
Funny enough that song is one of the more "old school" songs on the album to me.

Yeah I actually like that song lol. Just having some fun.
I can't believe it's been less than a week since release. That album rollout was awesome. I wonder if they have anything else cooking up for this cycle besides touring.
This album is so good, metal dream was a grower
Best to worst:
1. S/T
2. Adrenaline
3. WP
4. ATF
5. PM
6. DE
7. KNY
8. OHMS
9. GORE
10. SNW
It doesn't top any of the Chi albums for me yet, but it's certainly in the conversation.
I really love metal dream. It absolutely sores! I think the last 10 minutes of the record is really incredible.
I was kind of funny on milk of the Madonna. That one did not catch me right away. I know most of you guys really were excited about that one immediately but for me, it was definitely a grower. Now I absolutely love it. It's been stuck in my head all week.
I just think they made a really solid and straightforward bad ass record. Nothing too out of the ordinary for them and the songs are pretty short for the most part and very precise. It's a no bullshit record in my opinion. I really dig it. And Chino sounds amazing.
And at their age, I don't think they need to be taking that any chances on records in their 50s! Just happy that they are making music and still enjoying being together. I also think Fred did a great job on this record. I hope he joins the band permanently. And I hope I get to experience another Deftones record One more time.
Hey, just a quick question - Is Infinite Source officially the 3rd single? Since it got a video and such, but I didn't see anything related to a new single
Ok, so I appreciate what phil is saying, haven't agreed with 100% of what he's said but he's right about Terry Date.
My take on things is that you have the classic 4. S/T will forever be my favourite because where the casuals were let down by the lack of obvious sex songs and hits and "experimentation" after White Pony, to me S/T was the band at their most vulnerable. It's musically simple, stripped down, and just honest.
SNW for me is the nadir of their career, because as we all know, Chino goes off to do Team Sleep, the band record the Ezrin demos and the B Sides get released to give everyone something to do. By the time they get around to SNW, the whole thing feels like a crisis of identity where they just plain don't want to be Deftones, and instead try as many different styles and accessible songs as they can. The whole thing is summed up by Annie Hardy's melted IQ ad-lib that contradicts itself on Pink Cellphone, and the clusterfuck is complete.
When it came to DE, I wasn't a fan the way many were. Don't get me wrong, I have a strong time and place association with that album, more so than most of the others (it's the streets of Newcastle UK), but straight away the title track's riffs and chorus felt like it was trying to fit in with whatever lesser metal bands had become at the time. I figured it was more the songwriting, and didn't really blame production, but it's true in hindsight. I love This Place Is Death, it's a top 10 for me but that album is definitely reaching for mainstream a little harder in a post-SNW landscape. I also gave a lot of mental space to the band for this being in the midst of Chi's coma.
I like Koi but I remarked at the time that it was VERY safe, songwriting wise. Poltergeist is a fucking banger but it's a very stable album.
I forgive Gore more than most. Again, anything after SNW felt like an improvement even if it lacked the je ne sais quoi that is basically that atmosphere phil is talking about. I agree with Rikshaw's takes on this album, fellow cXz lover here but strongly disagree about (L)MIRL, which is that album's triumph and it gets better in the climax.
Ohms for me is all about Genesis and Pompeji. The bridge of Genesis "We're everywhere" is the first time post S/T that I felt HOME. I well up at that part because they came back. I agree that the verse of Pompeji is not matched by its post Doomed User chorus, but the mood of the verse is instant classic. Ohms does have some songwriting issues I'm not wild on. Always seems to be one track I actively dislike and with Ohms it's Error. Other tracks like Headless are just kind of there.
So post S/T, I had my heart broken by SNW, and everything has been a small climb back up from the bottom since, some bangers, generally stable overall, but I can absolutely see the difference between Terry fathering their true identities and the rest being production-minded, reception minded first.
I mean, I like PM a lot, but I tested it on my wife and when Infinite Source kicked in she was like "Is this Avril Lavigne?".
If there's a sentiment that the "times have changed" and people are into different shit now, then I don't agree. I don't see why someone with taste shouldn't be able to listen to their older stuff and not get into it. It hasn't dated really, outside of a few things on Adrenaline.
I'd also be lying if I said that I didn't wish that more of the album brought the darkness of Locked Club and cXz because that's who these guys are, whether they're 50 and happy or not.
Well said. If I'm honest I've had a somewhat similar trajectory.
looks like theres an encore of privatemusic.tv tomorrow
hope they add something new

It's slowly becoming one of my favourite albums. I try not to overthink stuff these days (not always easy!) and try to just go with how much it grabs me - and it has, big time.

I'm curious, when you guys rank the albums, do you go with an appreciation for the album as a whole (production quality, artwork, overall vibe) or do you count which one has the most good tracks and it's just an overall sum?
In other words, if one album had 5 gems but also 7 mediocre songs, and another had 12 good songs but nothing extraordinary, would you still place the latter as higher in the ranking?
I heard some Gore influence on this album:
Lyrical content of infinite source is similar to Rubicon (donning the stage vs. facing the crowd)
Bridge in souvenir
Bridge solo in cut hands (reminiscent of Phantom Bride)
~metal dream in general
departing the body's chorus evokes LMIRL to me
I appreciated these parallels, it used similar elements to that record in a new context.
This album is pretty much what I wanted it to be and is all that I've listened to for the last week.
If there is one thing that I would have liked, is one more longer track that was a bit more spacey and exploratory but that's a small quibble.
I definitely prefer it to Ohms which, despite enjoying it when it was first released, doesn't hold much replay value for me but I can imagine still listening to and enjoying Private Music several years down the line.

True, though there are references to playing and taking the stage in tracks like Hexagram and Moana just the same. It's a recurring theme.
It varies too much from time to time, mainly among the top 5, but I think this is my top 10 right now.

I usually go by how many songs in the record I like, production as well. For instance, we all know Adrenaline is really raw and shit, but I still dig it, a lot. Its kinda low ranked in my list because the other ones are just better overall, not bc I dislike Adrenaline. Artwork is not a deal breaker for me, altho if its cool, thats a plus.
2nd part, I'd rather have a song that truly makes me go nuts than an entire record of good, but not "holy shit this is amazing". I can deal with 7 "ok" songs, as long as theres like 2 or 3 that blows me away.
I dont care that much for SNW, but Combat, Kimdracula and Rivière have that effect on me. So does Beware (at least the version I watched back in 2007, not a fan of the one in the record).

Good one.
For me it's a combination of songs I like and overal feel, and with that last part, how the record as a whole affected me.
Around The Fur will always be number one, because it opened so, so many doors for me...to appreciating music, art, to new friends, new idea, to a new approach on life really (ie; do what you like, walk one's own path)
I'm shocked at how low SNW is on all these lists!
Quote from: endstand on Aug 23, 2025, 07:49 PMAnyone has a feeling the song "cut hands" is about situation with Sergio?
That's an odd take, if anything, the song is about us(the fans or rather specifically his haters). I feel like there's been a song like that in every album since awhile, for ex. TLID, Doomed User, Poltergeist, Prince.
Idk, when I listen to some of the lyrics I get the feeling he's talking to his critics.
Quote from: RikshawHoward on Aug 28, 2025, 09:52 PMI'm shocked at how low SNW is on all these lists!
Same. Great record, and a blueprint for the sound they shaped in the decades since!
A very atmospheric and moody album and also their only with an instrumental track.
I suppose it depends on what flavor Deftones you prefer. It leans on a less "heavy", more shoegazey side to them.

as a younger fan, physical music is nice but not a lot of folks my age have a record player for example. i know maybe one person with a record player and i haven't spoken to her in a hot minute. i was very lucky to grow up with an uncle with a huge vinyl collection (not to mention cassette tapes and CDs) who would go out of his way to buy rare music from discogs and the like to rip it for youtube...but that also meant every other day, his room would stink like glue for at least an hour as he tried to clean said vinyls. it kinda sucks that streaming doesn't really convert well unless you're getting millions of streams (which deftones thankfully is).

it doesn't sound like any known song. might be a bonus track or something like that for PM
was the beginning video any different from what they already showed on there the first time around (i already saw the post saying the audio was most likely a slowed version of cut hands)? i missed the encore

Adrenaline is their debut album and it's what got them started, it's part of the original trifecta of albums before their 'dark days". That's why I ranked it high, it's a solid album that delivers exactly what the title implies.
S/T is when they were having personal and professional struggles but it's my personal favorite, so I would have put it on top but imo WP is their best record. ATF, I don't think that really should be a debate but it's subjective so whatever.
DE is a significant moment in their catalog, it showed how they could pull together and make a great record amidst all that was going on at the time. The guys really stepped up and created a great album with a reinvigorated sound that I never would have imagined they could pull off. I can listen start to finish.
Ohms came out on my birthday when I thought the world was ending ("We're all going to die now, but thank you God for the present?") Nothing on the rest of their discography tops Spell of Mathematics, top tier song.
Private Music I have yet to fully digest but it does not outrank any of the above albums. It's just like my opinion, man.
KNY is not a bad album it's just weaker than the others for me. Poltergeist is pure Deftones energy, but the other songs started sounding generic to me.
SNW Not a bad album either, it's just weaker than their other material. Even the band wasn't that proud of it and admitted it went through production hell, and it shows. Some good songs on it though.
Gore .... don't like this record and it's the only Deftones record I never listen to. Having said that, a bad Deftones record is still better than most other music.

Im not a younger fan but Im exactly in this situation. I used to have an LP player but its been broken for a while now and I never bothered to fix it. No cd players either. I just listen to stuff online nowdays. I should probable buy a new LP player.
Weird thing is, I still have winamp installed on my pc to this day... lmao. I got tons of .flac shit from back in the day.

The Spell Of Mathematics is your all time favorite of the band?
That's wild to me, BUT I can definitely understand how a certain song can hit you and leave a big impression. I think Deftones especially have that effect on people.
Oh hell no, Spell is not my favorite all time song, by far. What I meant is from the remaining albums on the list, there are no songs on them that has a better track to me.
I knew I should've clarified that when I wrote it. I think the rest of the albums have some damn fine songs on them but for me nothing that tops Spell. Now all the albums above that do have songs that to me are their best.

Album sales aren't what they were back in the day - the whole industry changed. I'd love to have seen them get #1, but 75K for a thirty year old band in 2025 is still really impressive.

All top tier songs imo
I've had about a week or more to really get into the album and I agree with a lot of what people here are saying, on both sides. I think I prefer Terry Date as producer. Like why did Nick tell Chino it was a good idea to sing like he's Tom Waites on DTB? Good song but that ruined it for me.
The whole album has this frenetic energy to it. It has no time to really breathe except on a song like ITAYATT, then it just gets going again. There are parts like on MOTM that I wished lasted longer, the slow part could've lingered a little more before going back in. I blame Nick for not making those choices.
The first half of the album is my favorite, then it gets a bit odd to me. Cut Hands is good but it feels like Deftones doing Deftones, and the ending is like "really!?? We're doing the same fucking ending as DE just not as good!?"
Overall I enjoy the album and accept that they are an evolved older band that peaked already in the 2000's but still produce some of the best music on the planet. So happy and grateful they're still doing it so thank you Chino and co for putting forth another album for our enjoyment. Steph, I hope you get your health in order and start getting serious again like said in the ZL interview.
We got another Deftones record y'all, it's good to be alive. Cheers

I just love these longer well written reviews, even if I don't agree with everything in it.
I hated cXz on my first listen, now it's my favorite on the album.
The way the bridge kicks in is pure magic.
It's like driving in some mid 2000s cloudy sunset, rain about to start into the night, kind of vibe.
The mid 2000s I get from the guitar, along with MOTM some of Steph's best work in a while.
Absolutely beautiful track.
Locked club, cXz, and milk are tops for me.
Yea those are good tracks, I was really surprised I liked Locked Club. Idk, yk how when you read track titles before hearing the song and judge them lol? That's what I did but I really like that one.
Also, "cxz" the title sounds like "sexy" if you say it with a certain zest.
I am terrible at ranking the albums in the order I like them most, so I won't even try. Instead I'll just say that I'm quite very happy with how Private Music turned out, and express my thoughts on every individual track.
my mind is a mountain - A fine, hype opener, I like it, nothing bad with it but as a lead single it definitely left me wanting for more. A very okay track but I doubt it'll ever become a fav for me.
locked club - To me it sounds rather straightforward, you either like it or you don't, but what's funny is that when I heard it for the first time I kept thinking Chino's singing during the verses reminded me of another band, and I had to scratch my brain for a minute. The band I was thinking of was IDLES. I like it.
ecdysis - In a way it feels like a safe post-Chi era Deftones song, and I just like it for that. I dig the chorus, it's not the most unique stuff they put out there but I just enjoy it 100%. Reminds me of Ohms which is an album I also love so there you go.
infinite source - Probably the most love it or hate it song on the album I'd wager, it would have NEVER fit on one of the early albums from the 90s, but I like it a lot, I am not opposed to something that sounds more cheerful or cheeky, especially considering I like the post-Chi stuff almost as much as the earlier. It's just a good song, it's going to be divisive especially here, but it's great in its own right.
souvenir - Everytime I listen to this one I feel like it has yet to grow on me... It's fine but I just don't feel the same appreciation towards it as I do with most of the other tracks on this album. Maybe it'll click at one point, but so far it's kinda just there. Also unlike Pompeji on the previous record, the synth outro almost feels like it was just grafted there. Weird IMO.
cXz - A fine song, I would say it keeps growing on me, but I have little more to say about it than that at the moment.
i think about you all the time - A fine song too but it just kinda feels like I've heard it before... Koi No Yokan vibes off the charts. Not that it's necessarily a bad thing for me, but I find little to say about this track.
milk of the madonna - OH BOY. When I said my mind is a mountain left me wanting for more as a single, this is what I meant and then some, this song is a BANGER. It's likely my favorite off the new album, and might remain a classic should Deftones keep playing for years to come.
cut hands - That one took me aback in the best way possible, throughout my first listening session of the album I kept thinking you could hear their entire discography in it, but I didn't expect to be reminded of Adrenaline, this sounded like an Adrenaline song made today. Another one of my favs from the album.
~metal dream - Cool song but I have little to say about it, maybe it'll grow more onto me in time.
departing the body - Now this is special, because unlike the openers, I never really had a preferred Deftones album closer, but this one just might be it. It's on my top 3 on this album alongside milk of the madonna and cut hands, for sure. It just feels special to me, I love it. Hell if it's not the last thing I get to hear when I'm on my deathbed, I'm not dying.
I'm unsure if I like this album more than Ohms (I was shocked how much I loved and still love that album) but I am very happy about Private Music so making comparisons means little to me. But I am very happy about this new album.
Locked Club reminds me of the band Kowloon Walled City. Like the song 50's Dad
Like Draken I've had a week with Private Music.
Well said dude. The coolest thing about the Record to me is it's the same sound but different. Most experimental Album in years at the same time. Steph always gravitates to the power chords admittedly. Abe continues to set the pace. Chino sober and crooning. Frank controlling the vibe.
Deftones doesn't change but is always evolving. The push and pull. Again it's the Same Sound but different. Feels like the Golden Age of Our Band?
Private Music has crept into Top 5 Territory for me in just 7 Days, lol.

Good catch, I listened to it
Y'all know the 20th anniversary of hurricane Katrina just passed? I may have said something similar this past week about this but I literally just watched the documentary on Netflix of Hurricane Katrina today. ECDYSIS will forever describe Hurricane Katrina and all the wild fires out in California and other places. I totally know what Chino was trying to do in the song. Mother nature sheds it skin, regardless of us and everything becomes anew. Starting over and refreshing seems to be a reoccurring theme for him in his songwriting, at least since diamond eyes.... It's so weird that the album dropped like the week of the anniversary of hurricane Katrina. And all the wild fires they got real bad have been very recent here in the states. Not to mention all the other global natural disaster events everywhere else in the world because I can't leave those out. We are all one people. This track fucking sits in my soul for the rest of my life just for that and Frank just killed it. If there's anyone out there that doesn't have that track on their like list, at least listen to what I'm saying or watch the documentary on Katrina or read up on the fires and everything else going on and you will understand. That's where I sit with it. One of my favorite tracks on the record. They are a band that experienced all that shit out there with the fires and earthquakes throughout the years.
I often imagine myself trying to convince the world that this band is greater than they think because they haven't given them a chance or they've never heard them. And it's weird because the thing that I think of to present to the world is not my favorite thing, but I love it nonetheless. I see myself showing the world not only the song but also the video at the same time on a giant screen... HEXAGRAM MUSIC VIDEO. Imagine all these young kids see that and then they're like this is fucking cool and then appreciate all the stuff after and before. I just feel like that video and that song is so convincing and then cut to Minerva (the ANTHEM) and video. Yeah I love self titled, but I love most of them. I just feel like that video and song and that whole scene would draw everyone in whom belongs here in the Deftones world... Anyone with a decent soul for music. God, I love this band and if this is it then I am happy happy happy and content. What a ride. I've been on it since 1998 early. That's when they grabbed me anyways. A love letter to you guys. I love you Deftones. No matter what form you come in or what time of life you are in or have been in. You guys are dope. Yeah I still say that word. Y'all make me feel the feels. I hope that your boat just keeps riding over wave after wave through the years even when I'm old And may not listen to music anymore, which will never happen. But I just hope that after I'm long gone this band just keeps going just like the stones did past my pop and my grandfather.
So, fantano gave it a 7.Thoughts on that? I feel an 8 would be fairer but Im taking it. I do not agree on his view of souvenir but I think he was on spot this time.

Is Sharing Lungs now dead for another 5 years? 😭
Sadly yes.
I wish the guys would do something unexpected and just release an ep or deluxe edition with some new covers/b-sides.

For Fantano, a 7 is fair. He doesn't seem to like Deftones, and Deftones fans kinda loathe him... I can appreciate his articulate reviews but fuck him he knows nothing about good music. And yes, I disagree with him on souvenir too. It's a good song, I do think the song synth outro could've been shorter however.
I enjoy some of his non-review videos and Twitch streams, but my issue with him as a critic is he's an internet influencer first and a music critic second, so he's naturally going to flock to what he thinks is going to get him the most clicks, views, subscribers, Patreon members, etc. I get preferring pm over Ohms, but I don't think there's such a huge gap in quality where the former is a 7 and the latter is a 3, so I do kind of wonder how much of him giving this a positive review is "Gen Z likes Deftones? I better get on board".
Track by track MMIAM is a favorite on the album. Simple, yet it's such an unmistakable Deftones groove, and I personally like the theme of the song. What shines here is Chino's vocal melodies (perhaps Steph had songs like this in mind when he mentioned how amazed he is with Chino's vocals after completing the music). It grew on me with on each listen.
Locked Club was a surprising track (in a good way), admittedly, when I first read the track listing I judged it right away. I'm so glad I ended up liking it as much as I do, probably one of my favorites on the album. Reminds me a lot of the band Kowloon Walled City, I love the spoken verses and its straightforward abrasiveness.
Ecdysis reminds me of something off of Gore (in a good way) even though I don't like that album. Starts out with that Filter-esque bass line from Gerbil, then breaks out into the chorus, it's extremely infectious. I find myself playing it in my head all the time.
I get a 311 vibe from Infinite Source, I could easily see 311 doing a song like this. The ending especially is very 311. Would be fucking SWEET if they covered it. I can see why this caught on with people, it's a very poppy and accessible track. it's not bad, just not my tempo.
Souvenir is another personal favorite. It starts out slow maybe a bit dull but around the 2 min mark it REALLY begins to open up to an epic song. I LOVE Chino's songwriting and lyrics here. It definitely has a Deftones trade mark sound while also exploring around. The synth outro should have been shortened by half. Even 45 secs is already kind of a long outro for that song.
Ok so the first half of the album is my favorite. After this track I feel the album loses me a little. When CXZ kicks in it goes hard and I like the intensity, the song is not as interesting or diverse in it's sound, but basically it's just one of the album's faster more intense songs which is fine. I loved the visualizer when I first heard it, my gf still doesn't like the song that much but I don't mind it at all. It's more of that frenetic energy that's threaded within the album.
ITAYATT I don't have anything really nice to say so I'll just say it was disappointing. Sextape was better. I always fall in love with the idea of what a Deftones song COULD be based on the titles and what I hear others say (Zane Lowe) but it's a skip for me.
MOTM wasn't impressed on first listen but now that I have heard the whole album it's a banger. One of the best on the album, I hate that the chorus is ALWAYS in my head though, my gf and I look at each other sometimes randomly and we both know what we're thinking... "HoLy gHost... I'm oN FiiiiRe!". It just has this fast energy like alot of the other tracks here but it also has this desperation in the verses that I find to be strangely appealing.
Cut Hands. Deftones doing their Deftones thing with some vibes reminiscent of CMND/CTRL (a song I don't care for) but this time I think they did a more refined version, and I don't know if I like the weird voice modulator thing. The ending is literally EXACTLY the same as DE, why no one is talking about that more IDK. I think people are already talking about Steph's writing but, it could have been a banger song if they worked it a little more.
Metal Dream is an alright track but not a standout, it's just kinda there. Don't care for the verses at all, and that's about it, I don't have much to really say about it other than that.
Departing the Body is a great closer, Chino does this Mike Patton voice? (I thought of Tom Waites first) in the beginning and toward the end of the song. The story is Chino was recording ideas for the song in a hotel room or something and didn't want to be loud so he recorded it like that and Nick heard the tape and told Chino to just sing it that way... wish he wouldn't have... oh well, you take artistic chances, sometimes they work out, sometimes they don't. Obviously there are lots of people who love that choice and that's why it's ok. Again, just not what I like.
Overall a good album. It's what I wish Gore would have been.
Experimental Record for sure, but the same Sound? Fantastic Album!
Honestly, opinions are like assholes. Everybody's got one. The only one that truly matters is ours...lol
Well, it's been long enough, I'll drop my thoughts on each track...
1. my mind is a mountain - Banger. I saw some online talk that this is a by-the-numbers Deftones song, but when it's still this hard-hitting and aesthetically pleasing, I really have no problem with it. It has that short, straight to the point vibe that Diamond Eyes and Swerve City have, but I like this one more, probably mostly because Stephen's riffs on this hit me harder in the gut. One retroactive nitpick, but I do wish the studio version had Frank's little synth intro from the privatemusic.tv performance because it sounded cool as hell.
2. locked club - Maybe its the title but this definitely has some futuristic post-punk vibes. Like Ahnuld shooting 80's dancers at the Tech Noir club in Terminator. Appreciate Chino trying different things vocally in the verses before it gives way to a classic-sounding hypnotic Chino chorus. Maybe not the most mind-blowing song, but it's a cool vibe.
3. ecdysis - This one was immediate for me on first listen. Kind of catchy and bouncy in the same way Urantia is (an underrated song IMO), but ecdysis is maybe a bit more successful overall because it...feels more focused? Chorus is awesome, making me feel like I can fight off 100 bears or something. Chino touching on the California fires lyrically, it seems. Ohms t/t was also touching on a similar topic. The end of the world is a good topic, so keep exploring it, Chino.
4. infinite source - Closest Deftones has ever gotten to outright pop-punk, so I see why its a single and why the newer fans went crazy for it. Now personally I was never really a pop-punk fan - nothing against it, was just never my cup of tea (mostly due to the nasally vocals), but I can get into the Deftones version of it. Cool song overall - I particularly like the verses. Abe's great on this one as well.
5. souvenir - This song conjures images of Victorian-era London for some reason. Princesses in elaborate dresses and fops in pancake makeup sitting around in ornate castle chambers. Probably the clock chime sounds on the verse? One little nitpick but the high note Chino hits near the back half of the song sounds very, very similar to the high note he hits on locked club. I mean, it's a cool note, but very similar. Good song, if maybe a tad too long.
6. cXz - One of the darker sounding songs here - reminds me of 00's Deftones A LOT. Some interesting structural changes here. Like the "constant zero" chorus part. I'll keep this one in the stash for when I'm in a weird mood. More nice touches from Abe with the "start stop" drumming.
7. i think about you all the time - Probably a scalding hot take - I like this more than Sextape. I get why Sextape is such a popular song, and it is a good song, but I was never head over heels for it as many are. I like this because it has that romantic, dreamy vibe but Stephen's power chords make it feel more like a Deftones song to me. I also really like how Chino keeps subtly switching the melody up on the back half of the song. One of the best songs on here I think. It's makeout at the beach during sunset music and for that reason I can't be mad at it.
8. milk of the madonna - Absolute fucking BANGER. It has a "being shot out of a rocket" feel, which is cool as fuck. Love Stephen's tone and chord changes here, some of my favorite work from him in awhile. Probably between this and ecdysis as my two favorite tracks, but I think this is taking it. This song encapsulates everything I love about this band.
9. cut hands - Haha this song is fucking nuts. Feels like an Adrenaline/ATF throwback in the same way This Link Is Dead did, but more married to their newer style than that one. I saw some online talk theorizing its about Sergio, but I don't think so - I think it's again touching on us whiny, annoying, entitled online fans in the same way This Link Is Dead and Crosses' Big Youth did. I get it, Chino, we're annoying! No argument there. But I do feel like he can move on from this topic now. Did Frank throw a Firestarter sample in here?
10. ~metal dream - This one took some time to grow on me but I like it. Chorus is vaguely reminiscent to 976-EVIL (forever a favorite). Are those dub effects in the verses?
11. departing the body - Great, great closer. It kind of reminds me of a Gore-era song (mean that as a compliment) mixed with Fantastic Planet-era Failure. This might sound weird, but the visual this song gives me in my head is a robot in a cowboy hat hanging off a metal buoy in the ocean right as the apocalypse is about to hit. Saw some criticism of Chino's deep voice vocals and don't understand the problem, it sounds awesome.
I'd probably say this is one of if not the most consistent album of the post-Chi era. There's really not an outright bad or even mid song here. The only thing that is holding me off on putting it above Diamond Eyes and Koi for now is those albums have some very high all-time songs for me - Royal, Prince, Risk, 976, Leathers, Tempest (btw, it took me a very long time to realize Tempest is a masterpiece of songwriting, but it's an absolute masterpiece of songwriting), Gauze, Rosemary, even if this is more consistent overall? I said in a previous post that I would try to go into this with zero expectations per Chino's request on This Link Is Dead and I did. All I asked for in that previous post was for 7 out of 11 bangers on the album and they gave me that and then went past it with 11 bangers. 4.5/5 overall.
Eh, I think it's a very Sharing Lungs take to assume that there's some sort of running commentary about Deftones fans being addressed in their songs.
Chino writes this kind of shit because he's doing an "INFJ door-slam". It's probably about someone he knows. It's relationship shit that's actually relevant to him. The inclusion of technology in these kind of lyrics, i.e. Cut Hands and This Link Is Dead is simply because that's where the Battle-axe-fucked up relationship of yore migrated to.
These songs are not written about us because we come on here and say things like "Why is he trying to sound Jamaican on Locked Club?".
Is it perhaps Infinite Source written about Chi and Cut Hands written about Vega?
Big Youth was confirmed in a Crosses interview to be about obnoxious online comments and TLID, with lines like "I'm aware of which form you think I should try", "As I decide which fucking way I move" and the classic "I have no patience now for expectations, wow!", doesn't seem far off either, especially since Chino has talked about in interviews how he doesn't like expectations in music. Perhaps I'm reaching with cut hands (or perhaps not), but since he has touched on this subject before, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility for him to to go back to that well again, even if its just in one or two vague lines.

First time?
i have been listening to the album on repeat ever since it came out and it is really fantastic
i do wish there was a bit more variety (some songs do sound similar) but nonetheless it's soo good
it's in my top 5 for sure

Nope, far from it. I wish I had stayed away from any discourse in the run up... I'm really tired of reading about their TikTok resurgence.

A lot moved over to discord when all the redditards started showing up. I've still been jamming the album, just letting it play through. Picked up a purple copy of the album last week. Bummed but not surprised to see the setlist only has three new songs. But bitching about to setlist is beating a dead horse at this point.

Yeah, since Gore I have not been shocked at the lack of new stuff in the setlist. Saw them 2017 and I think Phantom Bride was the only Gore song... not that I'm complaining about that one.
The new album is good, and is growing on me slowly. Infinite Source and MotM would easily make a best of for me, but at this stage I was totally enamoured with Ohms.

Great post, broadly agree with it. It took me a moment but I might agree with your take that ITAYATT is better than Sextape.
I really like the new album and would love to hear some of them live, but it seems like they aren't going to play any new ones outside of those three.
They used to change up setlists a decent amount. They played mostly every song on every album live, up through the touring cycle for Gore.
I was really disappointed with the lack of Ohms song when they toured for that album, but then DDLD in '22 they busted out so many rarities. It was one of my favorite Deftones shows. (Ceremony, Error, 976-evil, Goon Squad, Rapture, Needles and Pins, RX Queen).
Not sure we will ever get a Private Music heavy show at this point. I would love to hear more from PM and Ohms live but I don't think it'll ever happen with either album.
Makes me appreciate all the random songs I've heard live in the past like (L)MIRL, Boys Republic, Geometric Headdress, Street Carp, Teenager, etc)

Last part of your post made me realize I shouldn't bitch. I've heard some rare songs. Can't even breathe, deathblow, THATH (although I'm not sure if you can call this a rarity since it was a tour staple in the WP era)
I'd love to hear ecdysis, souvenir, cXz and metal dream live, the good thing about Deftones is that you never know sometimes, they can throw some songs into the mix on future tours, just like when they played dai the flu on the PM broadcast, that was a huge suprise and it sounded incredible
over the years I feel like I've been spoilt hearing some deep cuts and b-sides on the gigs they have played in the UK at some of the smaller venues, so I can't complain
I'd love to hear more songs from Ohms, as it's such a brilliant album, but I feel that ship may have sailed

I remember them opening with THATH once. So great.
I've seen them 51 times so I guess there aren't many surprises left. Always had a personal (selfish) goal of seeing one new song live every time I've seen them. It's happened almost every show aside from the last two.
51 times! I thought I had seen them a lot (18). That's so awesome.

I suck at this shit
I guess I'm ready to learn how to post all pics and cool stuff from my last 28 year history with this band. I know someone asked me recently, but I've never done it or seen it much done on here. Pretty soon I'll get with someone I know that's pretty savvy With basic tech stuff.Lol ill show off some cool personal collections from over the years at some point. Nobody else to share them with bc its Deftones

I'd say going by mainstream success it seems to be doing well, they're probably at the height of their popularity so I'm sure it's beating out many of their previous albums.

I do, its weird I already responded to this with no......because I thought you meant the verses both in the song infinite source. Glad I read it again yeah I see it. Wow, waves jk
It's my understanding that in the last couple years Deftones has somehow made a resurgence, apparently on TikTok as it's been mentioned here before. As I was waiting for the new album to drop I kept tabs on whatever popped up on Youtube Deftones-related and I actually saw many people younger than me make videos doing album to album reviews, and loving the entire catalogue.
I assume this follows the trend of gen Z's "nostalgia" for the 90s and early 2000s, including the trend of nu-metal (it's been through many memes) and now a younger audience is just finding out that Deftones is just that fucking good, regardless who prefers the early stuff of the rest of it.
And I guess that leads us to Private Music making numbers, 30 years after the release of Adrenaline. I don't use Tiktok, I don't care about it, but seeing a new generation of people find out about Deftones and love it? HELL YEAH.

i'm not gonna lie, i've been off of tiktok for a few months (kept getting brokeback mountain edits and couldn't take the gut punches anymore) and if anything, i've been seeing a SHIT TON of what i'm assuming are music commentary/reaction type channels when it comes to people making content on deftones, specifically their albums (mainly private music and ATF). at first it was just 1-5 people, but now it's big and small creators of all kinds.

you're doing better than i did because i thought to upload images on here i had to make them 50x50 (see the asgore smirk i resized and made more or less incomprehensible when i was sending the leaks)...to be fair, this was when i was trying to add my pfp so i guess i assumed the dimensions were the same when it comes to sending images through the forums.
The more I listen to the album I understand why Chino's vocals took so long from having the music tracks. A lot of the riffs feel recycled and don't play for as many bars before the chorus.
Chino and I am guessing Frank spend a lot time colouring in their channels to take the songs somewhere different. It's like the change in dynamic at Gore is still there but Steph is more included. He doesn't bring anything new to his input as far as I can hear. If Gore has this much keys and colour, it would have lifted songs like Xenon especially, maybe L(MIRL) too (I hate the drum sound in that latter song... but there are decent remixes/remastered versions online too)

I heard all of Adrenaline, all of ATF, all of White Pony include BTS, Boy's Republic, and I count Pink Maggit because they used to play the intro live.
I've see all of self titled, except for Anniversary and Moana.
From SNW didn't hear UUDD, Pink Cellphone or Combat
From DE - didn't hear This Place is Death
From KNY - didn't hear Romantic Dreams, Leathers, Graphic Nature, Gauze.
From Gore - didn't hear Doomed User, Pittura, Xenon
Ohms - only saw Genesis Ohms Error and Ceremony. Nothing else was ever played live if I'm not mistaken.
Nothing from PM, yet.

Deathblow is such a great Track! Never seen it live myself but there was a great performance of it in Lisbon recorded out there somewhere.
Very cool video and venue! Anyone got it?

Yes. I recall that.
I guess Goon Squad, 976-Evil, and Good Morning Beautiful are my most rare.
I hope next time I see them, they dust off more of Ohms and Private Music.

speaking of souvenir again...anyone have any idea what the vocals are between the post-chorus ("keep warm here beside me / holding you tightly...we ride") and verse 3 ("as you drift / out of it...you wake" verse)? all i can really make out is "movement"? the liner notes don't have the lyrics either.
Hmm I thought it was a sample from Frank. Can't make out what it says though.
mmm...seems like a job for my stoner ears. i did a partial transcription of the acid hologram vocals, but the vocals mixing being so different on this album will definitely pose a challenge.
just saw deftones live for the first time and it was fucking beautiful.
i didn't really appreciate milk of the madonna when it initially released but man hearing it live is soo much better and i def like it way more now. i do wish their setlist had some underrated & under appreciated songs of theirs but nonetheless it was good.
glad i brought earplugs because they were really loud lol
The album is growing on me more and more, such weird details. Songs that at first several listens are unremarkable, reveal themselves... Departing the body springs to mind
I really think of Royal and CMND/CTRL as the sonic template for the album... a buzzing overdriven guitar with Chino and Frank getting creative on top of it.
Infinite Source and MOTM are still the standouts, don't like ITAYATT at all and don't mind a heartfelt Deftones but take my diamond line is cringe and feels like reaching for prom dance audiences.
It's a trip of an album
Lately, I find myself skipping to Milk of the Madonna, and vibing out with the latter half of the album. PM is so good, it is currently #2 on my albums rankings list; one day, it just clicked!
i've been slowly but surely integrating private music into my usual listening routine...i'll have periods of time where i mostly listen to 1-3 specific albums, listen to everything fairly equally, or get tunnel visioned on a song/1-5 songs from a specific album. the latter is what's been happening for me right now with acid hologram + phantom bride + rubicon, but when i have reached for private music i tend to go for souvenir + cXz + departing the body :D
Put this back on after taking a break for a week. Still just as amazing to me.
Do I miss the old sound? Yes, and I always will, but I'm so glad we have this album and thankful I enjoy so much of it.
This Truly is a Great Record! Top Five?
It's a Grower for sure. Abe is so underrated. Absolutely killed the skins on the Closer.
I've been stewing on it for a few weeks, and now I want to give my own thoughts.
I can't claim to have an extensive history of being a Deftones fan (only listening to them for a bit over a year), and I've never had one of their albums as a whole ever truly captivate me... until now. Private Music speaks to me in ways that there other ones don't; while their other ones had a number of songs each that I liked, they usually (White Pony aside) had at least an equal number that I didn't like. I'm very fond of everything here, with the exception of Souvenir.
In terms of specifics, my absolute favorites from the album are Locked Club, Ecdysis, Infinite Source, and Milk of the Madonna. I disliked Locked Club on my first listen, but... it grew on me very quickly, and now I can say that I love it. Ecdysis is a bit similar in that regard, but not totally the same; I felt it was just alright (which stung a bit, because I had high hopes for it before the album came out), but it's grown on me as well. Infinite Source grabbed me right away; it's a fun song with a very unique guitar sound and a good chorus, so what's not to like? Milk of the Madonna is absolutely hypnotic in every regard, with great riffing, evocative lyrics, and Chino shines here as well. Honorable mention goes to Metal Dream! I love the chorus quite a bit.
All of this is to say that Private Music is definitely going on my albums of the year list as a top contender. I still think Deafheaven will take the top spot for me, but Deftones and Dream Theater (ironically, all start with a D) are right up there for me. Great job, guys.
