Deftones - Private Music (August 22nd, 2025) Album • Page 36

Man the final riff in cut hands with those panic chords got me moshing in my room

 

Infinite Source reminds me so much of Needles And Pins and Good Morning Beautiful. Not sure how but the vibe

 

The stretch from xCz through metal dream is ridiculously good. Think into Milk is just explosive.

 

ecdysis coming in with a synth outta grimes's visions

 

come ON dude this is fucking amazing

 

that whole run from ecdysis through souvenir had me levitating goddamn

 

this is pretty sick i gotta say. ive never been crazy for diamond eyes and koi so i wasnt super keen on a return to nick but this is a big improvement on a lot of the aesthetics that define those albums and threads in a lot of what i liked about ohms too. excited to get to know it more

 

So turns out you can sing Careless Whisper over souvenir’s chorus

 

on first listen: it's pretty good. gonna give it some time and come back to it later today

 

Yeah, this is really good. Definitely gonna get a fair few listens.

 

I thought Ohms was their best since Koi. Nope. This is their best since Koi. Probably their best since White Pony. Maybe even their best ever.

I’m honestly just blown away by this.

This is what I love to hear and see from a band like Deftones. They make me forget how long they’ve actually been around. They still give off ‘new, exciting, band’ vibes. It’s wild.

 

Deftones are never a band I got into over the years, but I decided to check this out and I’m digging it. I’m not sure this is what I expected it to sound like.

what other albums of theirs should I check out?

 

Koi no Yokan, self-titled, White Pony, their first two if you're okay with them definitely being products of their time.

Still think a remix/remaster job on Adrenaline and Around the Fur would work wonders. As good as a lot of their first two records are, not a fan of the 'sound'.

 

I'm having a 'Diamond Eyes and COD Black Ops' kinda night

 

Cut hands ending with a diamond eyes homage???

 

Metal dream is INSANE

album rips 10/10

 

All of them.

 

Adrenaline is rough but AtF is literally a perfect sounding record.

 

Y'all weren't joking around, this thing is incredible! Not surprised at all, but also a band who's 30 yrs into releasing music and they come out with something this great--amazing!!

Side note: I didn't realize I had it on shuffle when I pressed play, after Mountain played it went to Departing and I thought Chino was Peter Steele for a sec

 

I can't get over how gorgeous infinite source is

 

Infinite Source major key Needles and Pins, yessir lets go

 

2nd listen complete.

-As soon as the snare snaps, you know exactly who’s behind the kit. I absolutely love it and can’t get enough of it.

-There are so many single-worthy songs on this thing. It’s insane.

-I hope this is a number 1 album.

 

this hits much more on my second listen

 

That was a fun 5am dog walk.

Gonna get many more plays throughout the day once I'm done with meetings.

 

I feel like this album takes the best ideas from Gore and Ohms and takes them to the next level.
