Looks like they have a big Hollywood director for Ceremony. Should be interesting.

I'm looking forward to that. Ceremony feels deserving of a video.

Is anyone a lip reader? What is said at the end by that green pendant witch lady ? :)

The video reminded a little bit of a part of the movie 'DARK WEB: CICADA 3301'a little bit. With the questions, rituals and tests.

Applies eye makes up. Steps away/ walks past pristine white car with a lit interior. Descends into deeper levels/states of bad to get to where she thinks she wants to go.
Gives away a golden bee statue  - at this point shes pretty much at some debaucherous knife party.
Then walks past an owl - gets fanged - then walks past some lockers. Descends deeper to the last level.
Meets an upside down half moon crescent faced, green pendant wearing witch/ and is told the consequences of her actions? Rejected passage to the afterlife?

She won't be reborn? She's in purgatory? Lost her soul?

She's damned? She's dead? Her fate is revealed?

Some Ohm Seti priestess shit about reincarnation?

......Nickelback wrote all her favourite deftones songs?

...............They don't validate parking?





Seemed to have more than a few nods to the white pony era/ diamond eyes style white owl thrown in there too.

o.O

Hmmm.........I didn't see many ledges.................... So I'm just chalking it up to 'It's just some random shit about honey' 😂 


Or more likely, 'You don't want to know what the lyrics really mean.... the truth is too dark' / 'Be careful what you wish for' vibe.

Really dig the film clip.

The trick on this kind of cinematography is to make the sync lip to be completely unsynced to the actual words, so I guess she's just saying blah blah blah

It might be me, but I loved a lot of the 'Eros' leak.

I was kind of underwhelmed on first watch but it's actually really well done; really cool, creepy vibe, beautifully shot, lots of cool references that I wasn't expecting too.

Two good videos on one Deftones album. Mental.

needs more band playing in outer space imo

Ceremony was fun, I loved the part with Abe, it made me grin. Did anyone else notice the White Pony neon sign inside the bar? I feel like there's more details like that I missed so I want to go back and watch it again. I hope they do Spell next...

Ohms title track is their best music video. I really liked the video for Genesis as well, simple but fits with the music.

I'm really itching to hear songs from Ohms live now!

21 months later and I think Ohms is possibly my 2nd favorite Deftones album behind only ATF. *Favorite*, not best. Best is subjective but White Pony and S/T are almost certainly *better* albums if you could somehow rate music objectively. But almost 2 years out and I still listen to Ohms all the time. "Urantia" and "Spell of Mathematics" are top 5 all time track contenders in my book. Top 10 at worst. Probably throw "Headless" in there too. My only knock on 'headless" would be that it's nothing new. But I do kind of see it as Deftones perfected. Just mt two cents. Hope everyone is having a great summer!
Throw your faith in me. I'll take you some place brand new....

Ohms is still in heavy rotation for me, the whole album, I think it's up their with some of the best work they have done

Love 'Ohms'. Going back and playing it often. It definitely keeps growing.
I'd say it's my fourth favourite album by them; 'Around The Fur', 'S/T', 'White Pony' and then 'Ohms'.

It's been a while since I last listen Ohms. It usually happens when I play something almost nonstop for a few days/week (s).

I remember the 1st Deftones show I went too, I waited that moment for so long and when the gig was over I couldnt listen to them for a while, like a couple months. It literally drained my energy. Not that I got bored or something, I just had to take a break. I dont know how to properly explain. Eventually it all came back and I was listening to songs on a daily basis.

I'll probably listen to Ohms again when Im outside taking a walk or something.
