Deftones - Private Music (August 22nd, 2025) Album • Page 28

heaven is kinda the ultimate locked club

 

Hah, you made it over here from SL.

 

"infinite source"...are you kidding me

everything about this album feels so warm and, for lack of a better word, optimistic. they legitimately sound rejuvenated

 

"I think about you all the time" gonna have me crying in the club fr. this shit is beautiful

 

I don't even know how to explain what "metal dreams" is. I guess the quality makes sense when you take into account, 1) they really haven't missed, and 2) at this point in their career, they know how to play the hits while pushing boundaries. Parts of this feel like an album that would have come between Diamond Eyes and KNY, other parts of it feels like Ohms with the production of S/T. Just awesome stuff that confirms how much I love them having Nick behind the boards

 

Trying to resist seeking out a leak as 48 hours is nothing at this point. Instead, I have to know something

Does this album:
A) slap?
B) fuck?
C) honk?
D) rip?
E) slay?
F) heeft er zin?
G) bop?

 

The two singles didn't do a lot for me. But Infinite Source is an instant repeat... maybe my favorite thing they've put out in over a decade?

So often I feel like this band's songs are 1-2 good riffs or ideas that only get 70% fleshed out, sometimes with really bland filler sections that kill momentum. But IS absolutely soars through space for the whole runtime like the best stuff on SNW... glad they've still got it in them.

 

I'm also going to wait until it's officially released, but I sure hope it honks!

 

fucks and rips imo

I am so interested in hearing what @nohandstoholdonto thinks of this album

 

closing track made me transcend

 

The album primarily rips, slays, and bops.

 

yeah this absolutely rocks. no shade to Gore or Ohms but this is the most immediate a deftones release has hit me since KNY

 

Got my shipping confirmation for the vinyl. Can’t wait to blast this thing.

 

eh it’s okay


I haven’t heard it and this is bait because I’m bored

 

Jacob

 

I bit lol

 

hehehehe

 

I love that Chino is doing some experimentation with his vocals on this. Crazy that we’re hearing truly NEW sounds on this band’s 10th album.

 

I think we have Crosses to thank for that.

 

I say this with no disrespect to Sergio Vega but I noticed and appreciated the bass on this album more than I have on any Deftones album since S/T

 

Frank is all over this record. Those synths on the chorus of ecdysis are so sick.

 

Fred definitely shreds a little on this album. It was great to hear! I love how he opens #3.

PS: Vega’s bass playing in Swerve City is incredible.

 

Radiant City. That is all

 

sergio is the mvp of ohms tbh

 

to clarify Sergio also rocks
