Ok, this may go nowhere but over the past couple of weeks, I've started to think a lot about the next record.
I think in some ways, this may be the strangest point in their whole career. Critically and commercially, they're in a good moment. They've reached a point where everyone respects the hell out of them. Bands love them. Rock press loves them. Even the indie critics have to give them some credit. They may not be as big as they were on White Pony but Diamond Eyes and Koi No Yokan were very significant in refreshing the support that had perhaps dwindled during the 'dark days'. Over here in the the UK for example, they're back playing 10,000+ capacity venues in London (Wembley Arena in 2016, Alexandra Palace in 2017) after they dropped down during SNW. Gore was very much a critical and commercial success and I think they're in pretty good form live right now.
At the same time, Gore was a major dividing point among fans. Some (slightly insane people) hate it. Some had a pretty lukewarm reaction to it. Nowhere near as many people are people are singing its praises in the triumphant manner they were with the previous two records. Perhaps more importantly, Stef's admission about his initial reluctance to Gore is bound to form part of the coverage for the next release. If his work is clearly present, that will get spun in a number of ways. If it isn't, then the same. Except possibly bigger.
As such, I think the build up to the next album will be the most interesting it's been in quite a while. The usual questions about musical direction aside, there will be a more definitive focus on Stef's contribution. Production, at least for fans, may form a bigger part of it too, after the problems with Matt Hyde on Gore.
So:
What would you like to see from the next album?
What do you think we'll get from the next album?
Who would you like to produce it?
What rough release date are you expecting?
I realise there may only be about three people still reading this forum but I'll post it anyway. Also if you're a "KOI NO YOKAN IS THR BEST DEAFTONES ALBUM EVA, GORE SUX" type, there is a special place on the internet for you called the Deftones subreddit. Go post there instead.
EDIT (Vesanic):
Writing sessions pictures 2018 + Chino interview 2018
Sorry... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLGJ-jNkm24#)
I would like to see Steph input more, since Diamond Eyes I felt this contributions have decreased, though on Gore I feel the stuff he wrote was powerful.
In terms of what to expect, it will just be another organic snapshot of the era, typical Deftones 8)
There's an Interview when Chino said: I want Stephens "forefront" to the next album http://www.theprp.com/2017/10/02/news/chino-moreno-wants-stephen-carpenters-riffs-forefront-next-deftones-album/ (http://www.theprp.com/2017/10/02/news/chino-moreno-wants-stephen-carpenters-riffs-forefront-next-deftones-album/)
There is anther one when Stephen talks about ATF and the next album last question scroll down https://www.google.hu/amp/s/www.guitarworld.com/.amp/artists/stephen-carpenter-looks-back-deftones-breakthrough-album-around-fur (https://www.google.hu/amp/s/www.guitarworld.com/.amp/artists/stephen-carpenter-looks-back-deftones-breakthrough-album-around-fur)
So I'm think their next album is going to be heavy
terry or bust
One of the interviews someone posted earlier in this thread with Stef said that he's been working on some ideas, and that was last year, so it sounds like already it's an improvement from Gore from a Stef-motivation standpoint, which is great. Personally I do hope what Chino said about wanting to put Stef at the forefront becomes a reality, because I know people have been worried that Stef's ideas aren't being welcomed or whatever, so it'd be good to see what an album like that sounds like.
Deftones haven't disappointed me so far, so I don't particularly want or expect anything from them than for them to continue what they've been doing that allows them to make awesome music. Gore is one of my favourite albums, along with White Pony and the self-titled album, and I can't really understand the hate some people have for it. Criticisms or complaints, sure, but I can't see why it's such an utter failure to some people. But ah well.
We haven't had any updates about the progress of the album, so I'm going to play it safe and say we won't see the album released until 2019, but hopefully I'm wrong. And hopefully we'll get some new music this year.
Could u imagine the hype if they brought Terry back for this one??Fuck that would be fun .
Deftones have only ever released albums in 5 months of the year.
2 x April
2 x May
1 x June release
5 x October
1 x November
Adrenaline - Released: October 1, 1995
Around the Fur - Released: October 24, 1997
White Pony - Released: June 20, 2000
Deftones - Released: May 20, 2003
B-Sides & Rarities - Released: October 4, 2005
Saturday Night Wrist - Released: October 31, 2006
Diamond Eyes - Released: May 4, 2010
Covers - Released: April 16, 2011
The Vinyl Collection 1995–2011 Released: October 25, 2011
Koi No Yokan - Released: November 13, 2012
Gore - Released: April 8, 2016
I'm guessing (unless they are not hyping it at all this time) that we won't see a release in April, May or June so that would only leave October and November this year if they keep to the same release pattern.
My gut feeling is a new song in May/June, another in August/September, followed by US headline dates & festivals between August - October (especially Cal Jam '18 and Aftershock festival....both October).
Finish the year with European tour in November....either a co-headline with Alice In Chains in smaller arenas (10,000) or subbing System of a Down in larger arenas (15,000+).
That then leaves a break for Christmas/new year before starting up again in February 2019. US/Canadian/South American dates early in the year, Texas/US headline & festival dates in May (Worlds Loudest Month festivals) followed by European summer festivals in June/July/August (depending on what ones they do).
OR I'm completely wrong, the 2 European festival dates in June are the final Gore album cycle shows and we don't hear anything until 2019 ;D
I imagine album cycle touring plans are planned 12-18 months in advance so they will know now what they are doing.
Disclaimer. The above is purely guesswork :P

Broadly agree, although to be honest, I think that's largely down to Stef. It certainly seemed to be the case with Gore that rather than his ideas being shut down, he just wasn't contributing early on in the process. I don't think he'll make that mistake this time.

I honestly think they will. Both Chino and Stef have praised his past work with them multiple times in the last year. And Terry seems like he'd work with them any time - indeed, he's supposedly a little disappointed that he didn't make all their records. Given the problems with Gore's production, I think there's a pretty good chance they'll want to go back to him.
For the love of all that is holy and good, please let Terry produce this next album, haha.
1) I'm not that big fan of a collab, even when I love Passenger, Phantom Bride is Ok, but on the other side, think Mein was a little disappointing, since I was expecting a better work or input from Serj. But, I would like to hear, if it's the chance given, a good collaboration vocal wise, but this time, a female collab.
Appart from that, I just expect to Deftones to sound like them, I know Eros is 50-50 expected to hear but I would leave what I want to hear from Eros, on Eros and from new album, on it.
2) If it's well produced, surely a new album that would be on top of Gore, at least.
And since Stef's input on the new Will Haven's song was great, I would really expect to take it to the next level using his 7's or 8's on Deftones.
3) Terry of course, that would be what we all expect, and since the comments saying that Chino wants to be Stef at the front of writing, I think no one ever has understood better what Deftones want, than Terry.
4) I would take it safe too, and not expect anything new 'till late 2019-early 2020. I know it seems a lot of time, but so did Gore next to KNW, almost 3 1/2 years one from the other.
But if they surprise us before that, I would love it.
If I had to take a guess, just a shot in the dark, I'd say that the album will probably come out in about... 2 more hours.
I'd like to see Stef back on a six string. Terry Date producing coupled with the work ethic they band had during Diamond Eyes recording.

Oh yeah, it seems like Stef just wasn't really inspired or in the right mindset to come up with his own ideas, but hopefully that won't be the case this time. He said he's been working on some ideas so sounds like there's already a difference.
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 27, 2018, 01:50 AM
Reading all of this, I get a weird feeling about the upcoming show. They premiered new material out of the blue a couple of times, mostly after a long period of inactivity.
The article with Chino saying he wants Stef's sound back at the forefront of the music dates a few months, and he said something like he wanted to hang out at Stef's on weekends and jam.
It's a safe bet to say they have recorded something together and they're ready to tease. If not this show, maybe in Europe. They only ever premiered new work in the U.S though.
I don't know about this. With Gore they said they didn't want people's first time hearing a song to be live, especially with everyone being able to record it and share it, etc. But they did play Doomed User live before it was released, so who knows? Hopefully they'll give us something new, but I think it's probably a bit too early.
I dunno, I was pretty happy with both Gore and KNY. Both see fairly regular rotation from me today. DE was okay, too. Sure, these albums are not as good as their earlier work, but honestly that's to be expected from most bands that have been at it this long, much less bands with such fantastic earlier work.

Hahaha terry date lol thinking that it will ultimately lead us to a place of happiness, You'll always be disappointed, anyway it feels like every release could be that next classic album but never quite gets there ...
If Terry Date had produced Gore, it would probably be their best album since S/T, IMO. The only thing that really holds the album back, IMO, is weak production. Well, that, and Chino maybe should've have recorded his vocals on a day when his screams were a little more ferocious.

I agree. From a song standpoint, Gore is at least the strongest album of the Sergio era (for me). The production is what keeps it down.

Interesting post on here from a guy who went to Botanica Festival on Saturday.
Quote from: truthaddict on Mar 05, 2018, 07:32 PM
----03-03-18 Botanica Music Festival @ Six Flags, San Antonio TX
Deftones put on a good show as always! High energy. Everyone sounded on point. Chino said they haven't seen each other for like 4 months, and they were happy to see everyone. According to their twitter, they got together a day early before the festival opened and rehearsed. Not much other talk between songs. Good set list! Might be the only time I've ever heard them play Lifter live, so it was a nice surprise. Minerva is always good!
Presuming it's true that they haven't seen each other for four months, it's probably safe to say that they haven't properly started writing yet. Which I think also means that it's very likely that they'll be doing so in/for the next two and a half months. With the South American tour and summer festivals, I don't know when they'll finish up - maybe the back end of the summer/early Autumn.
Which would set them up for a possible late 2018 release or more likely early 2019.
New album talk? Always goes the same:
Chino interviews:
"Its really unorthodox, reminds me a lot of White Pony"
"Its super heavy, probably our heaviest record yet"
Steph:
"This latest album is all Chino"
"We nearly broke up"
"Im playing on a ten string now for the one song i get to chug"
Every fan:
"Can't wait, hope it sounds like ATF!!1one"
"TERRI DATEEE PLS LOL"
"Chino looks so much slimmer and healthy, remember the hole in the earth video when he had 12 chins?"
And then about two weeks before it drops ill be here to pop in and drop a fake album leak that actually directs to lemonparty.org
See you guys then!

-Album leaks and we have the influx of "long time lurker but decided to join can I get a link?" posts
-Album drops and half the board loves it while half the board hates it.
-"these lyrics are about Chi" posts
-"I wish they'd release Eros" posts
- Tour starts and we bitch about the setlists
Can't wait to take the ride with you all again.
also:
-vesanic gets the leak early
-instead of posting it, or even saying anythng about how it sounds, he posts: "i have it."
-sl goes bat shit crazy and begs for the record or any info about the songs
-vesanic feels important
-vesanic gives sl the silent treatment
-when things are calming down vesanic sends a song or two to a few selected
-sl goes bat shit crazy again, demanding the songs too
-vesanic feels important again
-vesanic says he can't post the record because he promised his source in the know he wouldn't
-2 weeks later vesanic says he doesn't like the new record,miss the old days and chino's old screaming and singing
Well gosh darn, there you are -didn't expect you to be here and read it!
just kidding, i knew you would be around. So how are things`? life treating you all right?i hope so.
See you around when the next impenetrable hype bubble takes shape...the thing i'm looking forward to the most to be honest is when LG95 will go above and beyond to protect every new song on the record. I mean every nano second of it. Take care!
Ooooh feisty :o
oh no not at all. when someone like yourself is so biased and one sided, 700 posts and not a single bad comment about the band, always defending them into absurdity no matter what- it becomes funny. not only that - it's comedy gold. i'm not calling you a fanboy or anything,what i'm trying to say is that you make me laugh. please never leave the board,k? :-*
Not a single criticism? Lol, what a weird little fucker you are.

I was going to mention this as well. ESP just released Stef signature 20th anniversary green 6 string. Would be great if they at least did a few songs on the 6.
Also, Gore is good. But I will not listen anymore since it hurts my ears.
And Poltergeist and Prince bring the brutalz.
Honestly, I really wouldn't mind if Chino completely abandoned yelling/"screaming" on the new album. If anything, just to preserve whatever he has left of his voice. For the next album, imagine the darkest, most nostalgic sounding stuff they've made. Absolutely evil and vivid lyrics. Crushing AND emotional guitar with deceivingly sweet vocals about things most too strange for most bands. That's what I want.

I can get with this. Maybe a couple well-placed screams here and there, but mostly cleans. Gore's screams were pretty lack luster... I'd rather him sing than scream like that. Of course, I'd rather rather screams a la Hexagram (or even Royal), but I feel that those days are behind us now.

I'm going to disagree. Slow the fuck down and do it right! Gore had some solid ass songs that were ruined with fucked up production. I'd rather them delay the album a full year to get it right than just say "fuck it, it's done" again.
Do we know for sure that he's playing a nine? He was just holding it in that photo...
well it sounded like he was just holding one in the previous albums
It doesn't look like Stephen's riffing out any new ideas there in the picture,It actually looks like he's learning a new instrument.Like a fucking beginner.Goddamn 9-string.
He didn't even learn to master the 8-string properly, and now this? Low expectations from my part.

Agreed. He wrote his best stuff on a 6 and with Terry. Would love to see him go back to the 6.. so much for that.

Imo his best stuff may have been on a 7 string. There was that perfect balance between melody and heaviness. Hexagram main riff will probably be my favorite, it's fucking beautiful.
I could have sworn I saw yesterday that someone who sounded an awful lot like Red Pill/The Prodigy responded to this with his usual dumb shit. Did that get deleted?
And to remain on topic, I wholeheartedly agree with this statement. The Hexagram riff is probably the best in all of Deftones' discography.
New album. 2019.

For real. Unpopular opinion here, but to be honest I think Gore had better songs than Koi No Yokan and definitely Diamond Eyes. What brought it down was the lackluster production. I hope they remaster it one day like they did the old albums.
if any fans live and know about Sacramento, know of where 'the spot' is, where they are recording?

Interesting that they're not being announced for any summer festivals right now. Presume this means that they're looking at an autumn release date.
Or they'll announce summer festivals after they announce the new album.
All the major European ones have been announced though. If it was coming out before then they'd be on them now. A late year release date, or at least a post-summer one seems more likely, with them doing the major festivals the next year.
Not gonna lie, pretty stoked to see the band letting Stephen take the front seat again on this album and see what they do.
chugga chugga chugga
high hopes SLAM!
There's an interview with Chino in this week's Kerrang. They seem to still to be very much in the writing stage from the way he was talking. They are back writing in their Sacramento rehearsal space for the first time in about a decade interestingly.
Purely speculation - I think they record sometime in the next few months for an end of year release.
Yeah, they've been posting pictures on Instragram of them still writing.
Any news on Chino's other bands?
He wasn't asked unfortunately.

Ok... and Chino says new deftones album will compare to experimentation of White Pony hahaha
I'm interested to hear versastyles opinion on the matter.
New song snippet posted on their instagram, sounds a lot like white pony:
https://www.instagram.com/p/BxlqCnUB3uO/ (https://www.lemonparty.org/lemonparty.jpg)
looks good, chino seems to have lost weight
It certainly looks like Chino and Stef are getting on better on this record.
I don't know what you guys are talking about, that new snippet sucks dick.
Not gonna lie. I'm the third guy on this picture and had the chance to share a dick with Chino and Stef. During action, we talked about the new record. But I won't tell you anything since it was an opened action talk and I didn't ask them if I could share it. All I can Say is it was a simple conversation and I was struck by how ass to mouth they were despite being celebreties...
Ooops, I thought I was on reddit... ;D

It reeks of bullshit, if Chino gave him any info it would probably have been really vague anyway
It's either total bullshit, or an announcement is so close that Chino feels okay giving out a little info.
It's probably bullshit.
The reddit poster saying Chino said the studio has really big artists recording there coincides with what this guy is saying:

- Vocals aren't done
- They're working on it all afternoon every day
- They're doing it in a famous LA studio
- They're trying to make this one count
- They're using an old approach
- There is a tentative release month
Bet you didn't know that.
Sure, there's new info on the story but nothing can be verified yet, worth the read anyway.

"Vesanic
Pretty sure it is about suicide bombers. While Chino's lyrics often stay far from such topics, the self-titled was their first release after 9/11, which inspired most artists in the whole world. I don't see Chino being an exception. They started writing in 2002 if I'm correct, while 9/11 was in 2001.
"Paint the streets in white" = The dust and smoke from a collapsed building recovering the nearby streets.
"Death is the standard breach for a complex prize" = Islamist terrorists are promised to be forgiven for their suicide if it was done to fight the infidels, and will get their supposed heavenly reward.
"I think it's sweet of you, and your parents are proud" = Chino mocks the terrorists and their blind mistaken following of the family tradition.
"But I would expect it from anyone now to protect life's indigenous sound" = Chino admitting the terrorists see the western culture as a threat to the natural law and they are trying to preserve it.
"Worship, play" = Follow and pray to your god, join the religious game.
"How the streets they swell..." = The crowds nearby the attack growing in size and packing up the streets...
"...while the animals make their way through te crowd" = ...and more suicide bombers infiltrate the civilians.
"If you keep listening, you can hear it for miles" = The sound of death and destruction is loud and unmistakable, you can hear it everywhere in the world.
"God I'd trust everyone quicker with every faint smile" = Chino confesses to being naive and can't make the difference between a normal person and a terrorist in disguise.
"And the crowd goes wild" = Reference to crowds at live shows to make the listener think of the panicked people in the streets running and screaming after an attack.
"And the camera makes you seasick" = Footage of TV news investigating terrorist attacks on site is often shaky and makes the audience dizzy.
"God it's so sweet of you, I know you're proud" = Chino here plays the role of a terrorist trying to reassure themselves about what they're doing, by reminding themselves that their god would want this and is on their side.
"And the car bomb quick clicks, clicks, faint smile" = Not sure about the order of thought here. I guess Chino makes a statement about the sneaky side of the bomb placement.
"It's the same sound" = Not sure about this. Chino making a connection between the heaviness of the song and the loudness of the attack?
"And the crowd goes wild, and the camera makes you seasick" = See above.
"God it's so sweet of you, you know I'm proud" = Again, Chino plays the role of the terrorrist who says to their god they feel no remorse, and they are glad to preach this way.
"And the car bomb quick clicks, clicks with the same sound. It's the same sound, with the same sound." = The car bomb exploding is sonically similar to Deftones playing heavy and Chino screaming almost in agony.
"Hexagram, hexagram, hexagram, hexagram" = Probably a reference to the seal of Solomon, a symbolic hexagram that gave Solomon the power to control good and evil and the ability to converse with animals. "
Tell me you believe in this too! lol
Probably just before/around Dia De Los Deftones, presuming that's an annual thing. If that information about them recording in May/June is correct and Chino does still need to do his vocals then it can't be much earlier. Presumably the single release will go with the album campaign announcement so it'll all have to be ready. And they are usually slow as shit getting it all ready.
My guess: October single release, January/February album release.
And if Chino is quoted with an estimated release date, add five months to it.
When it comes to a usual band:
Single: late August, early September.
Record: mid November.
When it comes to Deftones:
Single: March 2023.
Record: December 2025.
I'm hoping we get a single in late August, but it will probably be around October.
New album to come out MONDAY
Dia De Los Deftones 2
Wonder if we'll finally get the Tool tour with them. They're one of the only bands Tool are following on Twitter and given Tool must be touring towards the end of the year, there's a big empty space for Deftones to play with them.
I follow Chino's wife Instagram account. No stalker here, Chino and family has its life and I have mine. But her account is interesting cuz she sometimes leaks informations. Weeks ago she posted a picture of Chino and her tasting Belching Beaver beer for Dia de los Deftones 2. And yesterday she announced they were moving closer to Portland for a couple months. Could it be because Chino is recording his voice there. If it's the case, then We ´re far away from the new record... makes my Defrones heart bleeding. But I hope it's not for other reasons like health or family members, which would suck for their personal lives.
Chuck Doom's IG posts are often from Portland, maybe that means Chino will be working with him in some capacity.
Are there any prominent mastering engineers in Seattle?
I'd say moving closer to Portland is just putting finishing touches. Since Chino already lives in Bend, i'm sure it's not a stretch for him to be in Portland.
Does it bother anyone else that these guys never post updates? Ever? The only thing we get is a random update from an interview or something. It's been so long since they've directly said anything. Maybe they like waiting until things are at a fever pitch? For me they are. So much so that I created a profile after lurking forever just so I could bitch! But in all seriousness. Would it kill them? No other band I like leaves their fans hanging like this in this day and age. It's brutal.

I sort of like the old fashioned distance between band and fans that they and some bands of similar generations have. It retains an element of mystique.
But yeah it is pretty brutal. And given it's getting close to the end of the year and they promised new music, it would be nice for them to say something soon. I still think single this year, album early next year. I'd love them to drop it sooner though. A sudden album drop or a quick four week album campaign would be ace. I'm really bored of bands doing three or four months between first single and album release.
but we got the ledditor drinking a beer with chongi!!!!
October 9 and still no word from Chongi and friends. Let's properly #: #nonewmusic2019...
If a single doesn't drop before or on the day of Dia De Los Deftones, it's not happening this year. Obviously.
I don't know guys, Chino has been in a lot of interviews lately maybe that's a hint to something? :/ Anyway we are still in limbo.

"It'll definitely be out next year," Moreno said. "I'm hoping that it'll be earlier on in the year, but I feel like once I give a definitive answer or speculate exactly when, I feel like we'll be held to it [laughs] so I kind of want to continue on. Of course, it'll be out next year, hopefully earlier than later. Our biggest thing is making sure that it's good. We'll be performing it, once it's out, for the next two or three years, so we want to be sure it's the best it can be and want to make everyone happy -- including ourselves."
They just played Smile live for the first time...
When Chino say something about a release date, add 6 more months or a year. You should know better by now, guys! Also, its been a while since the last time I logged in here.
So a Ledditor met Drank Felgado at the namm convention.
Record is done, out in April and produced by Terry Date. When asked if the record was gonna be heavy, he simply said it sounds like a Deftones' record.
jesus i get so sick just browing that reddit site
"omg 9 strings aaaaawesome yaaay"
fat dude playing digital bath
"i am wearing deftones merch"
"what happened to you is good"
fuck me
Sounds like bullshit to me.
Sorry Vesanic, I don't know how to make a link. But you replied on reddit so you Saw it .
I think this time it's real. If I remembre well, Stef leaked the releasing month for Gore in an interview in 2016. So I Want to believe. Plus it matches with their Touring schedule. I can't Imagine them headlining Hellfest without the record being out.
Tell us more TokyoDrifter!!!!! 2 more hours.
@ Penicks : you Forget the: who thinks « insert random Deftones' song » is their best work....
He posted a picture of himself with Abe and Frank so I'm pretty sure it's real.
Terry Date though... I know we kind of already knew it but I'm so pumped for that.

It's cool, I found it and posted in my original comment.
Also heard this from another redditor about the sound (I know the dude a little bit, he's a long time follower of DeftonesLive and has a podcast on YouTube, I think he's legit as well)
"I hung out and met some of Chino's childhood friends at Pasadena Day Dream Festival. We hung out for quite some time. One guy, who I'll keep private, showed me pictures of him and Chino at the recording studio. He said that Terry Date produced it. He said Chino showed him a few tracks. I was pretty faded, but I think he said it was darker heavier SNW type of a vibe. I bet it comes out in May."
To recap:
- 11/12 songs
- Terry Date producing
- 9-string guitar
- Comes out April/May
- SNW dark-heavy type of album
The return of Terry Date? A dark, heavy SNW vibe but with more consistent production? So pumped. LET'S GO!

Back to album discussion.
I can't wait to hear Abe being produced by Terry Date again. It's what I'm most excited about probably.
Aaahhhhh just give me a song!
Does the recover password function no longer work? Been trying on and off for months to get my old account unlocked but no luck. Anyway, stoked to hear about the new album. Although it'd be nice to hear something official from the band. It's been a crazy amount of time since they've said anything concrete. And saying the new album is sounding like "Deftones" is kinda what they always say. With all of that being said though, I don't really know what I'm looking for. Something heavier than Gore and with better production maybe. Gore had it's moments but it was lacking in my opinion. Shit, Diamond Eyes is a nice change of pace for the ears after listening to most of Gore. And I'm not the biggest Diamond Eyes fan.

Aaahhhhh just give me a song!
I think Gore is the only album that has bad production. DE and KNY are flawless on production, and Rosemary might be the best song Deftones have ever done. Production isn't the problem with SNW, it's the band being on the verge of breaking up and the album being all over the place. It's not cohesiveb, but I actually prefer it over White Pony.
And then there's S/T, the last album Deftones put out from Terry...it's arguably the most disliked album until Gore. SNW was more much critically loved, but it's also divisive amongst fans.
I guess I just don't see the hype for Terry, cuz I think they already surpassed that with Nick. Not to say I'm not excited, but I was excited about Hyde producing cuz he's done some great hardcore/metal albums...we know how that turned out.
Edit: S/T is my numero uno album by Deftones. DE and KNY are right behind
Hmmmm don't like the "summer" addition. Unless he's just talking about the album release/promotion/touring cycle as a whole.
I'm impatient now. Not many exciting albums announced in these opening few months. Just want announcements/singles from them and Gojira right now.

I wholeheartedly agree. Makes me feel like it'll be summer/fall then fall/winter then 2021. I mean, it's not likely. But that little addition of summer kinda makes me doubt it'll be out in April/May like Frank mentioned.
Come on guys. You know better than to believe them when they're giving timelines to anything.
Timeline is well known in SL anyways : 2 more hours !

So with that tour, new logo and new social media profile picture (even if it is from KNY era I think), the album announcement has to be very close now surely.

New song before Australia/New Zealand and new album in April before rest of dates would be my guess.
That seems about right. Next Friday is my birthday, so hoping for a single and official album announcement next week!
I think if they were going to announce anything they would have done it with the tour announcement. Also the fact they're using old pictures probably means they haven't taken pics for new album promos. My guess is we get a song within the next couple months. An official single this summer and a fall release for the album. Maybe late summer at the earliest.

I'll tell you all where two more hours came from in two more hours.
Yeah it was the KNY release that it became a thing.
A single has to drop real soon (in the next two weeks) if the album is still coming out in April. The rollouts are typically the first single two months before the album and the second single one month before the album. If not, kurtone is right.

True on that, a clear example that a single gotta be drop soon is The Black Dahlia Murder that dropped a single a week and a half ago and their album is coming out in April.
So what are you looking for from a new deftones album, what do you guys expect? Which songs and ideas did you like the most from the last album?
even though the mixing of Gore was atrocious, the album as a whole was much more captivating than DE and KYN (imo ofc). I just hope they'll improve their songwriting, I don't know what it is, but in some songs the pop structure seems way more obvious than others (Prayers / Triangles) and it kills the replay value.
And I don't give up on interludes, I still love the idea!
They're still great songwriters so I've no worries with that.
Mischievous side of me hopes this is the softest Deftones album just to throw off all the "LeT StEphEn WrItE tHe HeAvY RiFfS" people.
Really though the only thing I specifically want to hear is Abe produced perfectly again. I want new Abe grooves sounding great in the mix again.

The single biggest thing I'm looking for is for all of the songs to fit together and form a complete work as opposed to just being a group of random songs. All of their albums are pretty consistent in that regard, but some more than others. Some of the non-Terry albums feel like the songs don't always fit together (SNW and KNY, in particular) and it's one of the reasons I'm so happy Terry is back. I really think he will help them reach that.
As far as the overall sound they are going for, I definitely want something somewhere between dark, spacey, sad and beautiful. I'd definitely love to see them explore more of the futuristic space rock side that they've dabbled with on Minerva, HITE, Xerces, Combat, 976, Acid Hologram, Rubicon, etc. I'm always up for some experimental. Crazier song structures, definitely - and maybe even a few that don't have traditional choruses.
I also don't mind if the album isn't super heavy because let's be honest, this isn't a band of 20-somethings anymore. Of course, I still welcome heavier stuff if they are offering it up. It is a Deftones album, of course. Rumor is the album is heavier than Gore, so we'll see.
And it's a must that Abe and Frank are audible in the mix.
EDIT: Would love a song or two with some piano, too.

Personally I feel like since White Pony they have been repeating the same formula, there's a bit of variation and they have gone on a more pop direction but there isn't a drastic change of sound or any surprises.
I wish they would completely change what they are doing and would come out with a refreshing sound. Personally I would like something heavier in mood and also a lot more experimental but still with some beautiful dreamy and epic parts, but mostly with a dark and heavy feel. Definitely more Steph, Frank, and Abe. Given that the band has been known for mixing heavy and melodic I would like if they would explore a post-metal type of sound and if they would intense fast drumming in a few songs, a lot more synths and that Steph would write more than 2 or 3 riffs per song. I would also appreciate if Chino would play around with his vocal style, do more rhythmic stuff(no rap thou), more screaming(not all the time thou) and change the type of melodies he uses. Maybe some prog elements(I might be asking to much here). I would genuinely like it if they would do something a bit more ambitious, experimental, heavy and some nice surprises and curveballs. A song featuring Robert Smith on both vocals and guitar would be awesome.I also hope they ditch the pop elements.
In the end, I think they are going to end up coming out with more of the same, It's probably going to be an interesting album with some cool stuff going on but nothing groundbreaking.
Still, I have a little bit of hope that they might give us one really great surprise.
I'm hoping for better production more than anything. Diamond Eyes really grew on me over time, as did KNY, Gore had some OK songs, but quite a lot of passable ones
I'm not expecting anything ground breaking, but want it to be progression from Gore at least
With Terry Date behind the boards, it's an absolute 100% guarantee that the production will be better than Gore.
I pray for them to drop something groundbreaking, but if we're being realistic, I shouldn't expect that because it's probably not going to happen. BUT, how I see it is Diamond Eyes, Koi No Yokan and Gore are all good three-and-a-half to four star albums, but I know deep down that they have it within themselves to drop one more five-star record.

This is exactly how I feel . Think songs like Rubicon really had potential but the production just lacked so much.. What Happened To You has always been the Gem of the Sergio era for me personally. I love it sonically. But I really feel with Terry back in the mix they can create something special. Hoping this 9 string doesn't sound dumb. In my opinion he sounded his best and his heaviest on a 6. 🤷🏻♂️ Good times ahead no doubt!!
If they're going for an april/may release, we should hear a single soon.
Rocket skates released on this day in 2010. Album was out on May.
So hopefully the album is set for a release earlier this year and not later.

Stef's input is vital Deftones DNA and more song writing should be structured on what he brings to the party.
To me, the very few riff-driven songs on Gore felt awkward (Doomed User) and a bit lazy - as if it was an afterthought to include something "heavy". I'm confident TD will help bring all this together more coherently and capture the quintessential Deftones sound for 2020.
I'd also like to see Chino lower is vocal range and focus on the darker, emotive, more vulnerable side of things that will also translate better in a live show. I believe there are a few reasons why Gore songs are hardly ever played live - vocal execution is likely one of them as well as some members just not believing in the record.
I also want to see Stephen get his darker, fuzzier tone back (not sure if that's a realistic hope, considering the 9-string). And not resorting to repetitive, overly-simplistic riffs. I think we all know he can do better than what he offered up on Diamond Eyes, the end of Rosemary, the Gore chorus, etc.

Entirely possibly. If not likely. Not sure why I said that like a moron. But anyway, I'll take it when I can get it. Summer, Fall, whatever. It's going to be the first proper record in a long time. DE, KNY and Gore were decent. But they were warmups. There's been so much time since the last one. They know what they're doing and so does Terry. We're waiting this long for a good reason.

Terry Date. CONFIRMED.
Actively starting to hope this is the softest Deftones record just to throw off all the boring pricks who just want them to write My Own Summer or 7 Words again.
Plenty of people want it.

All you guys hyping up the album and its potential just because Terry is back is going to screw you all over. I mean yeah, it's great news, and certainly for the people that have severe issues with the production over the last few albums. But the band is still going to make the music they want to make, for all you know, it could be a better-sounding continuation of Gore. Getting your expectations sky-high in anything rarely leads to happiness.
I love Gore, but I would love some darker songs. Not even necessarily heavy, just darker. The first part of (L)MIRL is exactly the kind of sound that I think they excel at, if they give it the exposure it deserves.
i'll be happy if the guitars don't sound like 40 year old motorboats stuck in the mud like they have in the previous 3 albums

I agree with most of this. Terry doesnt have me on board as a savior as much as some but production wise there is no way it can be worse than Gore. If it's a better sounding Gore, I'm in.

I'd be more than happy with a better-produced continuation of Gore, because my issues with it are not with the songwriting. The songwriting is mostly solid and some of the best of the Sergio era IMO (it's really a shame the mix wasn't always up to par). However, I have to disagree that will happen for two reasons. One, the sound and style of the music always changes every album (somewhat off topic, but it's why I don't believe those who say Eros just sounded like Saturday Night Wrist 2 - Smile sounds NOTHING like any of SNW). Two, some of the negative fan reception, all the hoopla about Stephen not being enamored with creating it and Deftones even posting a picture of flamingos hovering around trash pretty much guarantees they will go in a different direction and likely even a wildly different direction.
As for the return of Terry, I get what you're saying. Expectations are a motherfucker and can definitely lead to disappointment. It would also be silly to expect an album that's going to magically transport us back to the late 90's or early 00's. Truth is, yes, we probably won't get an album that's as heavy-hitting as Around the Fur was or as much of a game-changer as White Pony was. I'm simply looking for an album that has exploratory songwriting and consistent production - and, yes, maybe the best album of the Sergio era. My expectations are high but not out of the stratosphere.
Also, it is Deftones releasing a new album. It's hard not to get hyped up lol. I get hyped up on every album release. This band has always been like a drug to me, so when I find out the producer of my three favorite albums is returning, it's like the dealer telling me it's the purest, most uncut cocaine he has gotten in seventeen years. That's if I were into cocaine. I'm not.
"That's if I were into cocaine. I'm not."
Yeah! ....Me either! Cocaine bad ???

As for me, all that matters in the end is they make music they enjoy playing. I don't expect or want an old style with Terry. I just know that it will be produced to the best of its potential, unlike Gore. This band deserves that much. Heavy or soft doesn't really matter.
I agree with this except for one point. Well kind of one point. Your point about heavy or soft doesn't really matter. To me it does. At least a little. They do both very well. And both are essential to what they do. But for me, I've gotta have some songs with teeth. Nothing crazy. Gore had just enough. Doesn't have to be a sequel to their older stuff. But I also feel as though they should do whatever represents who they are today. If that's a significantly softer record, then so be it. I'll have to accept it. I'd be a little disappointed. But I'd respect it.
Lets' not kid ourselves, it isn't going to be White Pony Version 2 etc. But with Terry on board the sound and production HAS to be improved
Getting hyped up is all part of the expectation of a new album, don't get me wrong I'm not expecting anything ground breaking as I've said, but I'm excited to hear what they put out, it will be a typical Deftones album, heavy songs, soft songs etc. it's how they roll

100% agree
Beware and Rapture both debuted at Taste of Chaos 2006. Rocket Skates also debuted at a festival if I'm not mistaken.
EDIT: Rocket Skates debuted when they opened for Slipknot in 2009.
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 26, 2020, 12:24 PM
Don't think it's gonna happen. A recent post with Stef's rig had an advance setlist, nothing new on it. Besides they never premiered material outside of North America.
Link por favor?
And another song that debuted at a festival was Korea at Ozzfest '99.
I guess if they are in the mood to play a new song they will do, like when they throw some surprises into the set
I'm going to the Auckland show, hopefully we'll get a teaser of something new
What is a private show?

Also, I'm still holding out hope they incorporate a new song into their setlist when they start touring in March, though I'm not sure if they would do that during a festival run. Historically, have they premiered songs during festivals? Or is it usually during their own headline shows?
Adrenaline material was debuted way before its release, as those demos had been written way before they were even considered for a contract.
ATF material was debuted prior to the album release, a whole 5-6 months in fact, at headline shows. The songs were not finished though.
WP material, the intro of Pink Maggit was first played in 1998 on a headline tour. Korea was played in 1999 at Ozzfest, a touring festival as opposed to a 2-3 day festival.
S/T material was first played on a headline tour a pair of weeks before the album dropped.
SNW material was first played almost 10 months prior to the album release. on the Taste of Chaos tour. Not sure that counts as a festival.
DE material was first played in 2009, on their opening slot on the Slipknot tour, about 7 months before the album release.
KNY material (Rosemary) was first played at private show in Burbank, about 4 months before the release.
Gore material was performed about a month before the release, at a festival.
I wouldn't take this info into account for speculation. All of these occurrences were in North America, and they're touring Oceania next month. Also, given how they're taking their time with this record and how they want to make it right, they might hold off on premiering new material pre-release altogether. Here's to hoping I'm completely wrong. After all, they are starting that tour with a headline date in Auckland.

[spoiler] (https://i.ibb.co/sqZbjDF/Setlist-2020.jpg) [/spoiler]
Thanks man, nice post. Pretty good setlist, although I really wish they would stop playing Diamond Eyes and make Hole in the Earth or Prayers/Triangles a set staple instead. Both are infinitely better songs.
Hmm, it says it will drop right around the 20th anniversary of White Pony. Yeah, I thought the fall thing seemed a little off. May or June, maybe July, is my bet and I'm sticking to it.
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 28, 2020, 04:21 PM
New interview with Frank dropped, he said "I think it's coming out in the near future... I know it will".
He also hinted at the possibility of an WP anniversary set.
White Pony in full live would be amazing.
It would be, plus they have to. A lot of bands with albums a lot less influential than White Pony have been doing anniversary concerts.

Chino says he wants to play a new song at Download. If so, that would put a release on track for late spring/summer, I think.
He also says the new album is more "upbeat" than Gore. Take that how you will lol.
He touches on Eros a little bit too, but it's basically what he's always been saying. It's at the point where I'm getting sick of interviewers asking about it, so I can only imagine how he feels.

It seems a new song is on their rehearsal setlist. Abe posted a pic, and under his stuff a setlist can be seen. One of the lines covered starts with "IH".
I thought that too but then I figured it could be lhabia.
It's all in capitals and the L is different on other songs so I don't think it's Lhabia. Probably a new song I'd say.
^ Agreed.
Also, not to be an alarmist, but the coronavirus might really affect the summer European and U.S. shows. Some artists are already cancelling their tours, sporting events are being affected and even movies like the new Bond flick are having their release dates pushed back. The Australia shows seem to definitely still be on, but after that, I'm not so sure now.
I think You are talking about 2015 European tour. We arrived in Berlin just a few days after terror act in Paris, while where was still no info if they will cancel the tour or not. We ended up going to see Fidlar and just wondering in Berlin. Now again, with the same friend, we plan to see Deftones in Berlin this summer. I hope the tour won't be canceled.

Sure enough, a new Deftones album with Terry Date and WP turning 20 complete the prophecy. Apocalypse is now.
(https://www.memesmonkey.com/images/memesmonkey/52/52ba7b0611cc6cc58d01dff7076d9e53.jpeg)
They'll probably cancel shows, and this is probably why:
https://twitter.com/LauraJaneGrace/status/1235716508208312320?s=20
All the bands cancelling shows because of coronavirus are doing so because their insurance companies updated their policies to not cover cancellations due to the virus. I know because ours did the same
Two more hours
And the Australia tour is now postponed. It's the right move, obviously.
The Beale Street Festival in May is still on for now, but I can definitely see that being cancelled too if this thing keeps getting worse, which it likely will.
If all their shows for the year get cancelled, I could see the album release actually being pushed up.
Do you people with more logic than I think the spread of COVID-19 is having an impact on when the album will release? I mean everything is essentially cancelled or postponed. It's truly unprecedented. Do you think the album will still follow it's original journey to release or no?

My guess is it will delay it as the band will not be able to travel to do any press etc. I always thought it would be out Sep/Oct, so that might still be the case

Sergio has been streaming on Twitch the past couple days. I went and asked him if he could give us any idea on when we might get a single. In a very polite manner, he basically gave a non-answer. Said "art can't be rushed". He also said something along the lines of it's not that he CAN'T say anything, he just doesn't know what to say at this moment. He said "I'm not trying to be cryptic" as well. He finished with something like this (I am paraphrasing) -Even I did know something, you gotta have some secrets in a crazy time like this. With all this access to information at our fingertips, it's nice to know something that not everyone else knows.-
I feel terribly selfish but that answer kind of bums me out. I can't even begin to describe my anticipation for this new album. I was already at full on hype mode, but now with this COVID shit being so fucked up and depressing, a new Deftones track would truly inject some real happiness into my life and many others as well. Fortunately, I know that other fans feel the same way and I know they are taking their time because they want this to be an amazing album to experience. Must remain patient and respect the band and their decisions.
Hope you all are doing alright during quarantine! The wait continues...
Even if the album was done and ready to be promoted, I think the pandemic has really forced them into delaying. You can release a single and album title, release date, etc., sure. But we don't know how long this is going to last. And even when things get better, there very well might be a second wave, resulting in another pandemic. Hard to book tours and festivals promoting your brand new album with that level of uncertainty, especially since touring is such a good source of income over simply album sales.
I mean it definitely sucks, we could all do with some new Deftones music to get excited about. But I understand him not saying anything.

It aint coming out before June at this point. We might get a single in April/May.
Maybe he doesn't want any shit from the rest of the band for speaking about the album without them around him? I like he is keeping things close to his chest on it all, keeps the mystique, which doesn't apply to most things these days
I remember all the hype before SNW. In pre-album interviews Chino talked about aggresive album, and when it finally came out, I felt like I was fooled ;)
Two more hours.
If it did happen, I think it would be in tandem with a new release.
I don't see it happening though. Happy to be proven wrong.
That picture says its on Amazon...but it isn't. Yeah, don't believe it.

I signed up on muspy and there's nothing more than that. There's been an ongoing rumour the new album would be Eros after they debuted Smile at Dia de los Deftones. That and Terry being on board must have fed the rumour. I believe someone who bought the rumour put that up on muspy. I'm not buying it. But who knows?
Keep in mind though...
After Koi No Yokan's follow-up album Gore was released in 2016, Moreno seemed less interested in finishing Eros citing the unfinished album's poor quality. He said he "wasn't too happy with the material we had" and that "some of the music was lacking a little bit".[23] Moreno elaborated:
" I had faith it was going to come together and be great in the end, but we never got to that point. Once Chi had his accident, everything came to a halt with the Eros sessions, so the idea of going back to that batch of songs, finishing them and have Sergio learn Chi's parts just hasn't felt like something that we're interested in doing. If the record were finished and we were just sitting on it, we probably would have put it out by now, maybe even given it away, just so that people can hear it, but it would take a lot more work to get it done. But when we get together, we're much more fascinated with where we are in this moment, trying to create something new.

Well, as much as I like Deftones like all of you here. As much as I was disappointed by Gore (production wise). And as much as I would this new record to come out sooner than later, i just want to cheer with our 5 boys. I can be a troll on their social media accounts, but I just want to say thank you to Chino, Abe, Franck and Steph (and Sergio also but not on this one). Because I'll always remember that Chino gave us Smile for free on YouTube. I think the boys are like all of us, normal human beings with love of music. They are just tied up by their Pr bullshit/record company to greenlight the release. At this point, I hope they'll announce a surprise release, not the usual teasing, followed by a single track, then ruining the experience for most of us. I'm fed up with this trend.
And since I'm French, you'll excuse me for my mistakes/bad English. I know our Americans fellows here who have tickets for their summer US run are still hoping. But know that their June/ July Europeantour is mainly cancelled. I Was supposed to see them at Hellfest. But it's cancelled. And Belgium and Germany shows are cancelled too. Spain and Italy are still showing, but they'll soon be cancelled. My fingers are crossedd for you Americans.
I really hope we do see Eros one day. Melanie, Smile, and what we've heard of Dallas are just too good to pass up official releases.
As for production on Gore, I actually dig it. I know that's the most common criticism, but I already listen to a lot of lo-fi alternative rock, so it doesn't really bother me. It even adds some charm to the songs for me.
I actually don't think Melanie's that good. Similar main rhythm to RatsRatsRats but the song isn't as epic, interesting or visceral.
Smile is incredible though and "Dallas" (if it is called that) sounds really cool.

Yeah Melanie is definitely inspired by Ratsx3. But I love that song and I love SNW in general, and I love when Deftones do their "beauty meets ugly" thing in such a stark way. Maybe it's a second rate Ratsx3, but it still sounds awesome to me!
And I think Smile is the best song they've put out since SNW.
From my POV, Melanie = Lotion=elite= wgtb=rats= poltergeist =doomed user.
I like this side of deftones . It's their mandatory ultra violent song. For me , lotion is a banger. Poltergeist and doomed user are good. Elite, wgtb and rats are meh. But Melanie seems really good, though it's something that you know deftones can write whenever they want.
And Smile... one of my favourite. What a song.... I do wish we could have a proper recording of it.
Melanie KNOCKS to me. I mean I can see the similarities to other songs (Rapture and Poltergeist, in particular) but that shit still goes hard.

Safe to say it's coming out next year? So cool to see an actual, direct update as opposed to the usual mystique material.
I don't think it's safe to say next year at all. I'd say fall is a safe bet. Depending on how long Mixing takes... Mastering takes a day... then promo - release is at least 3 months
Don't be that optimistic Vesanic. Mixing in April 2020= release in January... 2022.
Let's not forget deftones time is not the same as human time.
Two more years.
It does seem like they have been mixing for awhile, but they probably want it as close to perfect after Gore.

yea. Gore has good writing, and good songs, but bad production. doesn't sound good loud. Terry will make this album sound really good
If they are mixing now it will definitely be out this year. Summer release for sure, maybe fall at the latest. Can't wait to hear what they do with terry. And hope the 9 string doesn't sound too chuggy.

By the way, I know who you are. You're only using this forum because I was hoping you had grown some maturity since then. Implied word of advice here.
You may think you understand, but you don't. Don't get butthurt. Some may judge it as hate speech, I'm just stating the obvious. Don't take it personal.
I think Chino's had the biggest audience yet. 4300 people watching right now.. shit..
has anyone noticed the unfinished whiteboard with 10 songs and the loteria cards as song tittles on their IG post from 4/14 ??
Yup, can't make any of it out though!
wheres that new album cover or album title or anything?? :-\
EDIT: Abe is doing a Q&A on Instagram Live tomorrow night instead of a DJ set, so we'll likely get some info.

Correction. He'll be on IG Live on the Deftones Instagram account, tonight at 8PM EDT.
6.5 hours from the time on this post.
Oops, my bad. IG it is.
Yup. I heard it too.
I thought he was fucking with us, then he played it again and he was like "Oops, maybe I should stop playing it." He's lit. This is great.
Lol both he and Frank are tipsy, this shit is pretty funny...
Quote from: RaptureWS on Apr 29, 2020, 12:29 AM
Abe just teased a new riff. Sounded like some straight metal. Think Doomed User but much faster. It definitely didn't sound like Deftones, but that's great because I love when they experiment!
Immediate comparison based off of a five second clip that I will never be able to listen to again until the album out is the intro riff on Ebolarama by ETID.
No one recorded it?
Quote from: RaptureWS on Apr 29, 2020, 12:45 AM
Edit-WTF nevermind? It ended so abruptly and he answered very few questions.
Lol typical Deftones. If they don't have a moderator/interviewer reigning them in, it's just going to be chaos lmao. It's cool though, Abe doesn't seem to be a big social media guy.
Also, I heard music, but it went so quickly that I'm not retaining any of it. Was it just me or did Abe quickly cycle through a couple songs?
it sounds like something off of Adrenaline, but I can't tell if that was actually a new deftones riff or if he was just messing around and played a random song. I hope it actually was from the new album.
If anyone has the snippets, please message it to me when you get a chance.
Sounds like a female feature on the second clip Abe played, just before Chino starts singing.
https://youtu.be/2t_BlOlbRfg
Nice, thanks for posting!
After hearing that, Chino saying the album is upbeat makes sense.
It already sounds way more metal than Gore was....
Quote from: sharinglungs on Apr 29, 2020, 03:06 AM

Super hard to tell, but my guess would be Chelsea Wolfe or Lauren from Chvrches.
More importantly, Abe said that the mixing is virtually done.
People get so excited about hearing a heavy riff. I mean I get it but a one-note thrash riff is a slightly odd thing to get pumped about. I guess it might be because of the long wait.
And yeah that's definitely effects. Sounds like the Change verse sound.
Abe said that the original set release date for the album was July 24th, and now he said its pushed back a little bit because of Covid.
Abe is such a goofball. XD
Definitely sounded like there was a woman's voice, and not Chino's or a instrument, for a second there. Would definitely appreciate a Mayberry cameo, if only to piss off the idiot Hatebreed douches.

Straight from Sergio on stream tonight as someone said they heard female vocals on the teaser... "Definitely NOT!".
Quote from: Vesanic on May 01, 2020, 05:40 PM
This small recording reminds me of that clip of Feiticeira, where you could hear someone entering the studio greeting someone else who was listening to the track. I was too young to be around but I'm pretty sure that clip hyped things up for fans then just like this one is doing now.
What clip was that?
Quote from: Vesanic on May 01, 2020, 05:40 PMI'm pretty sure that clip hyped things up for fans then just like this one is doing now.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I can't feel the hype at all. I mean - I've got huge hopes regarding this record and I'm super hyped. But it seems like people don't care that much as it was in the past with SNW, DE or even KNY.
It's just my feeling, but Deftones have terrible PR team. They deserve more attention. Their merch are terrible too. Their social media are weak comparing to other bands these days. Their latest "Q&A" with Abe was completely out of control, one big chaos. I love the guy, I love his approach to social media, but you can't deny it was quite dissapointing. I understand that they want to keep things "mystique" or whatever, but their attitude towards their fanbase makes no sense to me, especially since we are just few months before new album drops.
Any word on if they're live streaming tonight?
NM they posted that Sergio is doing a dj set..
There's hype among the diehards - and some big publications like Spin even picked up on the song clip being played (Vesanic - I'm sure you noticed, but Spin and some other websites linked your video - congrats!). More casual fans aren't really going to care about a quick clip being played twenty minutes in on an IG Live video with shoddy audio. But when they officially announce a single, release date, album title, tracklisting, etc. - there will definitely be a splash made.
The Abe stream was fun. I mean, was it a mess? Sure, but it's an IG stream. It's not that serious. He was cool enough to play a clip and give us little updates on where they are in the process, which he really didn't have to do. Abe has a very jokey personality, for sure, and if you want more straightforward answers, Chino or Frank are probably better for that, but it was fun to watch them cut loose. It was especially a blast to watch Frank loosen up, who for years has always seemed like the most serious guy in the band. It was honestly kind of shocking to hear him cracking jokes and giving Abe some shit lol.
I agree on the merch, it took a big dive around the Gore era - they had some amazing shirts back in the 00's and even some okay ones during the DE/KNY era. Probably has to do with fashion trends changing and working with a new designer. But it's just clothing and not really the reason I'm a fan.

I think it's more like Gore was so bad that everyone is worried that this one will suck too. Tempered expectations. I remember being pretty bummed out about S/T too and worried they wouldn't ever make anything living up to WP and Adrenaline. SNW and DE weren't WP or Adrenaline but they at least felt like they were heading in sort of the right direction for me. KNY re-confirmed that they were the best band.

Maybe "terrible" wasn't the word I should have used out there. In my opinion their communication with fans is quite weak. If that's what the guys want, then ok - maybe I don't get it. My point is - their FB/IG pages can be silent for weeks. They don't do many interviews and when they do, it contains the same questions asked again and again. I follow activities of quite a lot of bands, as most of you here. You can't deny that Deftones have a bit poor marketing, right? Maybe it's intentional...or maybe I'm completely wrong.
Many friends of mine forgot that Deftones are still around and were a bit shocked while listening to Gore. Many of them were not aware Gore is out. They were listening to Deftones a lot in the past...

It's pretty clearly intentional. They're pretty much as popular as they've ever been. Subheadlining the big metal and rock festivals and headlining others (they were due to headline Hellfest this year until coronavirus), playing arena-size venues in most places across the world. Critically, they've gained grudging respect from outlets outside of rock and metal press (something they never really had until the last decade) and Gore charted higher on its week of release than any other Deftones album, including White Pony.
What your friends are aware of is pretty irrelevant. I think by most measurements, their PR can't be doing much wrong. Whether you want more communication from them via social media is not actually a PR issue, at least in terms of where they're at now in their career.

Well, you must be right then. I forgot that Gore had amazing first week. I'm wondering what will be the marketing strategy for new record with COVID-19 around and how much it will affect their sales result.
Frank is doing a stream on his own twitch channel tomorrow night too. Looks like it's some sort of collab with Crook.
Looks like it's been deleted?

I will go insane if they don't release the album this year.
I can't wait to hear a Deftones album that actually sounds like Deftones. I put on Gore for a minute and switched to a Date album right after. Night and fucking day.
There's no reason they need to wait to tour to release the album. Once touring starts, they're going to sell out every single date no matter what because people will be concert crazy after all of this.
Yeah it's an old mindset. Albums support tours now, not the other way round.

I put the needle down on Gore this past weekend and honestly my opinion of it is better now than ever before. It definitely took time to grow on me, but now I consider it a decent album even for Deftones.
I even consider it better than some albums that I won't mention, because it might get me chased off this board by screaming people carrying pitchforks and torches.

"A few options I brought along for the recording of our new album. Ending up using my signature snare for entire album with the exception of a bell brass for one track. FYI...orange sparkle is 'Digital Bath' snare. 😊" - Abe
I'm excited that they're sharing this excitement about the new album, and actually using social media...
why not? it's a public livestream after all
It's public in the same sense that having a conversation in the street is; it exists in a public space but the nature of it is broadly private. I think it's fine to respect that Sergio and Chino almost certainly don't want what they say on those streams to be printed in the music press or anything like that.

Yeah, us Deftones die hards really torture ourselves every new album cycle by constantly checking in here just to be met with no new updates lol. I remember shortly before Gore dropped, someone had some leaks from a vinyl rip and they were DM'ing them to people here. The leak wasn't even reported on hasitleaked yet, so we were first grabs for leaks as far as I could tell. So I just keep checking in hopes that I am here if something like that happens again. I'm just waiting for that day I come on and the page number on this thread has spiked haha
I wonder when we can start talking about the new album, in the new album thread?

It sucks those streams can't be more casual, I miss most of them now but it's always a cool opportunity to discover new music. Some people can't help but fanboy out and they make it really weird, they just start spamming "I love you Chino" or asking if every unknown song was new Deftones, Must be exhausting for them.
It feels weird to even try talk to them on a personal level like that, we're still strangers at the end of the day. I just like their music and want to hear what their influences are, the streams can be pretty cool sometimes though when it's just a bunch people with similar tastes talking about the music being played.
I propose SL becomes a private forum. This place is going to be crawling with dipshits when the album comes out anyway, so lets nip that in the bud now.

I'm w/ that. There's the DT subreddit for everyone else...quite a strange place already but not as bad as some of those obsessed groups on facebook.
EDIT: Download has made the stream video private but here's the pertinent info from Abe's interview:
- The new album is mixed and now in the mastering phase.
- Abe says the "core sounds" that they developed with Terry are back.
- Abe throws September out as a tentative release month but isn't sure. At this point, we'll know when we know.
- They've talked about maybe releasing a condensed version of Eros, maybe as an EP. He also says it has some good songs but isn't very good as an album.
God it has to get old being asked about Eros every fucking interview.
Should be a big week for news with the 20th anniversary of White Pony almost upon us. Also, I found this interesting:

The whole section about them living in the Hollywood mansion is fucking hilarious Behind the Music rock star shit.
"Carpenter: Fools got wasted. Did Abe tell you about stabbing himself in the head?
Cunningham: I got stabbed in the head.
Carpenter: I wasn't there when it happened. It was days later, and they were talking about it. Abe was laying in bed, and he just rolled onto a knife somehow. I was like, "How does that even happen?" I know of the physical action of stabbing, but I was like, "Holy shit, dog, you could have killed yourself."
Delgado: Lots of partying, blood. ... You're in Hollywood, doing crazy shit. You're at speakeasies at five in the morning, out in Compton. Shit just happens, you know what I mean?"
Black Stallion is officially happening!
https://loudwire.com/deftones-white-pony-new-version-black-stallion/
DJ Shadow is the only announced remixer so far, but this part is key:
"So we have a bunch of different people on it, some that actually inspired some of the writing of the record itself, the original album. So it's kind of come full circle."
Also, I know this thread is for the new album, but this is kind of the thread where we all talk, so I'm just gonna post all Deftones related news in here.
July 2020... no real info yet. No single, no title, no teaser, no track list, no release date, no nothing. We getting it this year for sure??
If the release month is September, we have to be getting an announcement and first single in the next few weeks. I know for 100% fact that the album is finished, so if it doesn't come out then, it has nothing to do with the actual music itself.
FBI gon shut this place down lmao
Hopefully the removal was because the info was at least correct?

I really hope that an announcement is coming soon, I'm assuming the information was correct if they made the guy who interviewed Chino edit the album title reveal out of the video.
I'm assuming that there's something going on because they've basically all gone social media dark.
Sergio hasn't streamed in a long time, same with Chino on mixlr.

So many honorable observers, these days.
Someone in the comments of the PRP article claims to have heard 4 or so songs already. Wonder if they're telling the truth?
"In the same way that DE was different and new from SNW or Gore sounded different than DE and KNY. I've heard 4 songs and so far from what I've heard if Anyone was expecting a heavy album or a Steph heavy album I hate to burst your bubble. This sounds more like a KNY & Gore mix but a lot better than Gore. Everyone is different though that's just my interpretation."
Don't see why they'd lie but 4 songs of a likely 10-11 song album isn't quite enough to say if it is or isn't Steph heavy. I don't believe it'll be Steph heavy per se. But I vaguely remember reading something awhile back saying that he was definitely more involved and had more of a presence this time around.
I also wouldn't listen to random folks on ThePRP discussion boards either. We already know Stephen was more involved with this album, so it's going to be heavy. How heavy is the question at hand.
Also, Wookubus has stated in the comments that he had to remove a post because it contained the album name... Looks like it's pretty definitely the name...
I'm sure it will be the Deftones mix we've come to know and love: a couple songs with heavier moments, a ballad or two and then a bunch of atmospheric rock songs in between.
2020 and people are still arguing over something as basic as whether a record's going to be heavy.
Can't say i like the title. Gore was a cool one-word album name, the new one is kind of what I would expect from a cheesy prog-rock band
Around the Fur and Saturday Night Wrist are my favorite album titles because they are so aggressively weird and unique. The new album title isn't quite as weird, but I do like how it's a word that almost doesn't sound like a word at all.
Legend says... the inspiration comes from the unique or weird mexican 6ix9ine

That is me on theprp. Citiumdc is the email I even used to sign up on here and I absolutely have heard 4 songs from the new album. Also I wasn't trying to judge the album as a whole but someone asked me to expand on my opinion of the music I've heard so far and I extrapolated. There could very well be 5-6 heavier songs I haven't heard yet. That's completely possible. My buddy I showed a song to did say that he thought the first half of the song sounded like a little less heavy hexagram. Music is subjective I'm not trying to mold anyone's expectations but was just trying to answer questions asked. Thanks, I've been a fan since adrenaline so I'm glad to have found this community.

Chino said it in an Instagram live interview. The interview has either been taken down or edited that part out.
when it leaks u best share it here first nigga
I'm becoming a little concerned that both Chino and Abe's answers in recent interviews have been "Uh, September...I think?". We're only two months away from September, so you'd think they'd answer with more confidence if they had a specific date locked down. It feels like we're closer now that we have an album title, but until there's an official announcement, things still feel somewhat up in the air. Hoping I'm wrong.
Hello, I do understand you guys can't share title of coming album directly. Can you drop some clue though?

For real. Someone earlier mentioned to use Google.. but no mention of it anywhere that I can find, and I've tried several different search combinations. Nothing. :-\
I gave a pretty solid clue on the previous page.
Quote from: Vesanic on Jul 07, 2020, 09:07 PM
I'd just like to remind that the circulating name is only an interpretation on Chino pronouncing it on a live chat. The spelling could be entirely wrong, thus the meaning as well.
Besides, we don't know if the whole band or the label has actually validated it. Sure, it would be surprising if Chino had said a name that didn't get the go-ahead, but remember the self-titled was gonna be called "Lovers" and they changed their mind later in the process.
Who's to say they're not gonna do it this time too, especially with that leak?
Basically, us spreading the name right now would be borderline misinformation.
i was just thinking this. he may have said something with a different spelling, and it could get changed last minute. so it's not a for sure deal, until it's made official by them
Quote from: Vesanic on Jul 07, 2020, 09:07 PM

But of course! In fact I only want to know this word so I can ultra hard avoid accidental mentioning it when speaking of new album.
Did the album name ever get leaked for Gore before it got officially announced? I wonder if they'll just announce the name soon since some people already have an idea of the title name.

I believe it was..
Anyone remember the guy who posted a screen shot of his early copy of gore? It showed almost all the names of the tracks except for Rubicon I think and everyone was trying to guess what it was? I think that might have had the album title in it as well?
Is that time of every 2/4 year again. I'm back here looking for information IYNWIM. I know there is not at leak and I'm not looking for it as it is illegal. I'm just looking for information. I saw a name but not sure what else is around.

I felt that man. Gravity of this place pulls me too with every album since SNW.
Honestly this waiting shit is old. It is JULY! Album supposed to out in September? My ass. They would need to start promoting it today basically. Anyone else sick of this? Suspense to build hype is one thing. But this is straight up obnoxious
Yeah if we don't get anything about the new album this month it's not coming out in September. They started teasing Gore like in late January and then it eventually came out early April. We should be getting something about the new album by now if its really coming out in September
They only need 6 weeks from announcement/single to release.. Chill guys.. still lots of time..
They promised a new album in 2019, Nobody needs to tell you that it's 2020. It is already late, wait for it
I heard Chino reads this board so I'm sure if we post more about it the band will move up the date just for us!

Looking at their last four album releases, it's more like eight to nine weeks. We still have the rest of July though, so we all just gotta hang tight.
Well a lot has changed in the world and the music business since 2016. No point in referencing to earlier release schedules. I think especially now with covid19 it's totally possible we see quick moves.
Also that instagram post was not a promise. To me at least. It's a picture of a studio / rehearsal space and can be interpreted to mean that they're working on new music in 2019. Which they did.

I know the tracklist made people pretty skeptical as you'd expect but reusing an old team sleep song name was what threw me off the most.

While I agree with most of this. To act like they haven't been overly optimistic about releases dates is revisionists history, I think. They routinely predict albums will be finished and will come out way sooner than they ever do. As far as COVID speeding up things? It's possible. Maybe even likely. But it can also be the exact opposite. The label may see no point in releasing an album they can't tour on. I don't think it's very profitable to do it that way for a rock band is it? I really don't know.

I can say it a million times... they're not waiting til May/June 2021 to release an album that's complete.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_2020_albums#Second_quarter
There's a list of Albums released during the shutdown and continuing to now.... none of those artists can tour their albums, but they're still releasing them.
Thanks for sharing the name of it, I was itching to know what I missed from that interview that got edited.
Announcement this week or it's getting pushed. Calling it now my brothers. Maybe not far. October or November. But they gotta say something
i'm just gonna assume it's ccoming out in Nov. they're usually a month or 2 off on their release date predictions, so Nov for me is a safe bet. anything sooner is just a bonus. still only 4 months away. not bad
I have confidence it'll be out by September since both Abe and Chino said its likely coming out in September. I'm sure we will get some announcement at the end of July
I still don't understand why they are delaying it at all. Would any less people go to their shows if they didn't wait wait until they can tour this particular record? They already sell out almost all of their shows as it is.

Fair enough, they have not indeed always met the deadlines ;D
But the thing is that nowdays it's actually the other way around. The album is your "promotion" for getting the shows booked. That's where the money is now anyways. I personally think they're very close, if not already there, to the point where they don't even need to release new albums to get their shows booked. Ofcourse they keep making new music because that's their thing, lucky us.

If you want the vinyl in stores on the same date as digital it takes time. Pressing plants are the bottleneck of this shit because there are not many of those around anymore. 6-8 weeks is quite normal delivery time. Add shipping to the strores and you got 2 months minimum easily from the point of a finished master (assuming the cover art is finished too). Then there's press promotion to get the date out there. Fans will find the info regardless, it's the potential new fans they want to reach..
I have hope that we'll get some info this week... The guys seems to be a little more active the last couple of days on social media/steaming. They've been pretty quiet for a while, so I'm hoping this means something.
Two more fucking hours
Im just being a little bitch. I fully acknowledge that. But it's now the 16th. Tomorrow is the 17th with likely no news. Monday is the 20th already. So promotion should get rolling. We're all sitting around waiting for this shit. We don't need a tour to get hyped up. Drop this shit. Do a surprise album like rappers do. I don't care. Just do something label!
A surprise album drop would be awesome. If a much smaller band like Hum can do it, then so can Deftones. No way in hell it will happen though lol.
my guess is July 31st they will announce the new album for a October 9th album release date. no way its delayed until November.... right?
A lot of albums are being announced one month prior to release at the moment. We might not get an announcement and single until mid to late August

I am staying on the fence about the 2021 your. Not only is the economy going to take a major hit because lots of people won't to take the risk to attend shows, we don't even know the virus will be killed off by then. You might want to read about what the Lollapalooza co-founder had to say about shows not coming back before 2022 (with which I've agreed all along tbh)
https://consequenceofsound.net/2020/07/marc-geiger-concerts-2022/
Agree 100%. I'm fine with it. However long it takes for people to be safe at a show. What sucks is that some shows aren't issuing refunds. People may need that money right now. I sold Pearl Jam tickets right before all this happened but the show was cancelled, so StubHub has all of my money until the show happens.
I would still like Deftones to release the album - it would give us all time to digest, and it would give them time to rehearse those songs and maybe play them. Lol.

i'm not real optimistic about the 2021 tour either. i think everything should go back to normal legally, and whoever wants to hide and wear a mask for the rest of their lives are free to do that. but that's not gonna happen, so everything is canceled. i don't think this tour will happen once the date gets close
also does anyone know if Stephen is using a 9 string? or was it just rumor?
Two more hou...weeks?
album has been cancelled
I know that they used to think that the album had to be released around touring to create hype around it, but I think by now they realise that's no longer the game they need to play. They've got more than enough fans that people would see their shows even if there was no album. And even if there's a year-long gap between the album and them touring, sure, the album wouldn't still be fresh and exciting, but seeing those songs played live WOULD be. So I definitely don't think they have any plans to wait until touring seems safer and more concrete. September is starting to look a little unlikely unless it's late September, but even if it's later than that, I think it'll only be by a little bit. Also if someone can message me with the alleged title, that'd be awesome. It feels like it's been an eternity without new Deftones music, I need to get hyped up for what's to come lol. Hopefully a single soon.
I would expect to at least have one single or an official article on the album name/track list by now if they were going to release it in September. I don't think that is happening.
Yeah, September isn't looking too likely.
There's still almost 10 weeks until the end of September. Lots of time. Considering they now likely won't have to film a music video, and all their marketing will be online, 10 weeks is plenty of time.

It might be but strange to not even have 1 single by now. There are groups releasing albums in October that already have 2 or 3 singles out now.
Prayers/Triangles was released 5th February. Just over two months before Gore came out (8th April). The album had been announced like a week or so before.
Quote from: LG95 on Jul 21, 2020, 10:53 PM

This is how they've more or less promoted their last three albums (I can't recall if they did this for SNW, but I do remember HITE being put on their Myspace in late August 2006.) If they are still following this marketing strategy, the single tease/album announcement has to come tomorrow or Friday the 24th (the same date Abe mentioned as a date they were looking at for the album in one of those IG streams) and then the single would drop on the 30th or 31st in order for a September album release. So, if nothing comes in the next two days, I really doubt it's coming in September...unless they maybe drop a single in the first week of August.
vesanic what was your opinion on gore
My guess - they are going to give us something soon together with Daniel P. Carter. Hopefully some updates still in July...

It's a private group...with close to 18,000 members. I don't use Facebook, so I couldn't tell you what's going on....but if someone is leaking clips, I don't think the band is gonna be too happy about that.

Quite rightly so. Hope this shit doesn't spread but that's a lot of people if that is the case. I don't use Facebook either.
It was a shitty clip with pretty terrible quality and it is now deleted. Definitely an unheard track, though. I'd expect more of this to happen if people have some tracks saved.

Someone from that group is sending actual direct rips of new stuff to everybody around. I kindly asked them to keep it on the low and he basically told me to fuck off. Spreading is imminent.
Uh oh... Is it possible a full album leak could happen?
Quote from: Vesanic on Jul 25, 2020, 08:46 PM
No, but some people are mentioning Eros stuff. I think people are mistaking it, I don't believe there's Eros stuff.
Oh ok, I don't think it'd be Eros stuff either they've got that in a vault somewhere.
It's definitely not Eros related. I think we all know it's the new album and we know why.
If songs start leaking before they've even officially announced the album, I wouldn't be surprised if we see another Diamond Eyes situation where they are forced to push the release date up.
Can the mods ban that dude from the FB group? how did he even get the actual tracks? That dude probably knows someone close within Deftones

There are so many idiots around, it amazes me...
Hopefully there is only one low quality snippet circulating, not whole record. Otherwise I'd feel really pity for the band that it is happening.

Honestly I don't think it can be contained much longer. I'm not a mod on there, I can't do much.
Yeah I understand, shitty situation. Hopefully this isn't another DE incident
They might have to announce the new album a little sooner than they thought it seems, I know they need to send copies out to journalists or whoever to preview the album and get write up's done, but some of those mother fuckers can't be trusted.
As Abe's bass drum used to say... Trust no bitch.
Yeah, that sucks. Now gimme! j/k lol
... unless?
Anyone heard it and can share how this new stuff sounds?
I think now would be a good time to reiterate my suggestion that Sharing Lungs be made a private forum.
Apparently after they deleted the 1:30 sample, they put up another one that was 2:45 long. Whatever happens, there might be a full deftones song leak, in piss poor quality soon.

i love piss poor quality clips. bring them on!
The quality is awful...but the hype is real
Found the clip on Youtube. It's not great quality, but it has me really excited about this new album. Sounds really good from what I hear. I was a bit disappointed with "Gore", and am looking forward to hearing Deftones back with Terry again.

Found it.
I think this is the song Abe played a little teaser of.
Quality is shit... but ABE IS BACK... I CAN HEAR HIM!
Chino is really doing some cool vocal stuff in this song.
I can only assume this will be the first single, this is the Abe instagram song. I like this section 2 minutes in.. wow.
Sounds like a part of a second song as well.
Just found it too, it's really easy to find. We gotta be getting something soon
Sounds very...metal? Not bad at all. Wish he woulda screamed. I'm curious to see if he can still do it after all this time. He had a few decent ones on Gore. I liked the one on the title track. Doomed User as well. But Leathers was the last really good one. And Royal was the last great one IMO.
Quote from: RaptureWS on Jul 26, 2020, 02:30 AM
I hate that it happened this way, but for selfish reasons I am so happy to hear this. I work retail and my fiance has breathing problems. I literally worry everyday that COVID could fuck our lives up before I get to hear new Deftones. This gives me some peace of mind. If anything happens, at least I heard this much while my family is still happy and healthy.
Not selfish at all. Not to me. I know the feeling. I've often thought to myself that I just want to live long enough to hear this album. Which crazy and dramatic. But that's how I feel. It's your life. And they are a big part of your life. Hearing a small and rough portion of an entire new album isn't the end of the world. Stealing the finished product with no intention of paying is a whole other thing.
looks like the dude deleted the video now. He said in the comments that he got it from the chino stream but that was back in June so I'm not sure why he choose to upload it now

Well put guys, especially 90s/Pumpkins references. Chino has tendency to compose voc. melodies in bit similar manner to Billy Corgan (e.g. Lmirl) and it is just best.
Crunchy riffs + lots of Frank + upbeat Corgan-like Chino sounds like perfect summer Deftones banger. Sure this sounds like 'core' Deftones but I also hear echo of Rubicon from last lp and this gets me very hyped for rest. Would be sweet to have it in proper quality soon. Last seconds sounds like one more song which may mean that full album is outside there somewhere and that would support theory that they'll have to release rather sooner than later.
Also, first seconds of next track doesn't sound bad at all with heavy riff + Abe's "caffeine beat".
I haven't logged in a good while. I had an error issue to deal with and with the world going to shit I've been busy with other stuff. I have been keeping up with any news on here as always though. It's good to be back and even better to be able to discuss a new Deftones song..
Shit quality or not it's clear that it has all of their fundamentals. Soring Chino vox, fantastic rhythms and power from Abe, Steph chugs and awesome little atmospheric flourishes from Frank. I'm sure Sergio is in the mix somewhere but I'm having a tough enough time trying to decipher these lyrics. We're close boys, this might seem like a minuscule moment for others but it's huge for us...
It goes without saying but fuck whomever let this get out there but we can't go back now so we might as well talk about it. I'm getting strong SNW vibes from the sonics at least. I love the effects being used here. It's also crazy that even through the murky mess on the leak you can still pick up on the deeply layered Terry Date mixing and production.
The line "A picture perfect strange" has been stuck in my head for hours.
Disappointed that these low quality clips have leaked but hyped as fuck for new album.
2nd klip appeared on yt with even less quality - a massive, heavy song
Just found it too. That main riff is amazing! Yeah you're right it is a massive heavy song indeed
The fuck is wrong with people
RatsRatsRats
Today being sunday, what day do y'all bet we hear an official announcement from the band? My guess would be by Wednesday

Im raising stakes and betting that someone close to the band is logged here and from time to time will be teasing us with bits of info and cryptic messages. Just like it happened in the past.
It could be even you, saying to us that official news will come very soon now. Somehow 'oldcasino' nick brings Steph to my mind. Is this you Stephen? ;)
EDIT
I also hope that we are just days from official news. Wednesday sounds hopeful yet not unrealistic when u think bout leaks from yesterday
There's now 3 different clips possibly from two different tracks floating around...
I'm liking what I hear so far.

They're not leaks from the band though. It's someone's recording from Chino's mixlr about six weeks ago.
And the fact that YouTube hasn't hit it immediately with a copyright strike makes me think we might be further away from an announcement than we might think.

I think Gore had that negative fan backlash for two reasons:
1. The poor mix.
2. The interview where Stephen said he had trouble getting into writing the album and Hearts/Wires.
If Gore just had better production, I think it would be as praised by fans as Koi (maybe not as praised as DE though, which has an accessibility to it that's always going to make it one of their most popular). We don't have to worry about a bad mix with Terry involved, so I think Oh, Hello, My Sweetheart will be more praised.

If I had to guess, my theory is the guy who leaked them got pissy that no album announcement has come since the preview was over a month ago, which is a pretty fucking entitled thing to do. The fact that he told Vesanic to fuck off after V asked him to keep it on the down low makes me think the dude is probably a huge asshole.
Did Chino really play almost 4 minutes of new songs on his mixlr? Or did he only play the one minute clip?

Truly that would be arrogant entitilement. Patience in face of delays is a part of being Deftones fan. WB folks and band just have to postpone their LPs each time and that's ok, part of life. Two weeks ago, when Chino gave new album title and month of release, no one here took it for granted.

Honestly that's the most mental thing. Where's the copyright strike? It's been on Youtube of all places for over half a day.
Quote from: Vesanic on Jul 26, 2020, 06:00 PM
Inkblades, my theory is that they're going for a modern approach where they believe those leaks will create hype in the long run and will enhance the promotion. I could be entirely wrong.
Not a fan of that approach but I'm no manager.
Hmmm, that's a good possibility. I don't get that approach either, but I'm also not in the music business. Either that or they just simply aren't aware that song clips are leaking yet.
Im sure we will get some news this week.
The first song snippet is for sure slowed down, I remember hearing it with a little faster tempo. I don't think it was mastered either when they got those leaks
Quote from: Vesanic on Jul 26, 2020, 06:17 PM
Someone on reddit said they had it on good authority the source leak wasn't mixed/mastered and the tempo is off. Do what you will with this info...

Nothing's up, just need to figure out a few things.
Oh ok, I thought something might have leaked or might have..
I mean, if they're leaking things on purpose... It's working... This thread has been pretty active today.
And I think the reason the YouTube clips haven't been taken down yet, is because maybe they don't have anyone in the office to do it? Since it's not in the auto flagging system yet.
how are the YouTube videos still up even though they took down the first batch of leaks in a matter of an hour lmao

It is for sure either unmixed and mastered, or it's just a rehearsal recording. It's especially obvious in Chino's vocals, which sound much more akin to a live performance from him than what he'd typically sound like record.
Quote from: Vesanic on Jul 26, 2020, 08:57 PM
You know for sure it was taken down following a copyright strike? I know one of them just made it private.
I don't think it's a rehearsal btw.

Rehearsal was the wrong word, it's definitely too well produced to be a rehearsal. I guess I meant it could be more of a scratch track or something. Like maybe that's not the exact vocal take that we'll hear on the album. But yeah, it could also just be unmixed and unmastered. I guess that would make more sense given that it was supposedly from a leak that chino posted 6 weeks ago, and all the final tracking would have been done by that point I would assume.
That aside, I really enjoy the track itself. It definitely feels more focused than something off Gore (though I do like Gore a lot), and I think the vocal melody in the chorus is great, it's a real ear worm and I can definitely see myself singing it in my head all day long.
It's definitely the studio version, maybe unmastered, definitely mixed.
Trust me, what you heard, is what it's going to sound like on the full finished album.
Lots of people blamed the poor production of Gore to it being a low quality leak. Which turned out to not be the case... If I remember correctly the vinyl version was the first version circulated back then.
The longer song seems to be cool, but I feel more curious about the song that starts at 2.30. That beginning and beat got my attention.
By the way - the version I heard yesterday (the one that got down) sounded a bit differently...

Yeah, it was the vinyl rip that was leaked initially. And while the actual thing sounded a bit better than those rips, they didn't sound as much better as what I would have thought lol
Looks like the clips were taken down off of Youtube
Why the HELL did I come into this forum a few hours too late to hear these song clips? Jeez, you think it's going to be a while before anything new is happening and this happens lol. So they all come from Chino playing them to people? If so, seems like a really dumb move from him, uncharacteristically so, no? Maybe knowing how differently things are being done at the moment, he thought it would be a good way to create hype or something. And to be fair, it does create hype. The person spreading them around sucks for doing so without the explicit permission of the band, but in my opinion, leaks like that (clips, bad quality, etc) don't tend to harm sales at all, but just get people talking and more excited.
Not the best move on chinos part to share these . But man the heavy track sounds killer. Hope we get it this year. 👌
If anyone has the leaks please PM me

Please refrain from leaking or asking for any present leaks.
The leaks in circulation are either microphone recordings or some very compressed studio stuff. It's just not worth it and giving the band dumb press in the long haul.~
I understand everyone's excited (so am I), we'll all be better off with the actual final product. I heard some stuff and I kinda wish I had been more patient.

Always enjoy the posts and efforts of you longtime guys. Psyched to be back and cheers to getting some new Tones soon!

It was shared by Chino, not a leak.
@Vesanic:
Every leak was spread via this board. This time won't be different. Relax - nobody will get hurt - especially not because of crappy, low quality, song snippets 😏.
I remember back in 2003, Nuno leaked the snippits from the Self Titled album
It happens, I agree with no posting links to them, but do we have to pretend it hasn't happened? Come on.
What Ves is saying, is management is basically telling him to remove anything related to the album title and how I'm assuming also the leaks, or he's just getting proactive as to not get into trouble or the forums shut down.
Everyone is excited for the new album.
Everyone knows how and where to get leaks when they happen.
Let's just be patient, it's coming soon (ish)

Patience is indeed a virtue, and this place ain't very virtuous. Love this board but especially when a new Record is about to drop. The anticipation is frantic, lol.

Exactly. Truth be told, we were reckless about this in the past and I leaked a lot of shit myself before. I won't deny.
But I'd like to believe most of us have grown and understand the risks. Also if you believe leaks help the hype: it doesn't. And it impacts the promotional work, and sales in the long haul.
How? One person hears a bad quality rip, they think it sucks (just because of the quality), they pass on purchasing the album and spread that opinion of theirs. Friends of that person will buy into that opinion. And it goes on. That's how you get opinions like "Bud of mine heard it in advance and told me it sucked, so I didn't listen to it". Then years later they come on a fan space like this one to say how dumb they were to believe that.
It's very obvious to me they don't want this out. They already removed clips from YouTube. Let's just be respectful about this. I'm sure it'll come soon enough and it'll be worth the wait.
As a reminder: we NEVER allowed public posts of leaks on this forum, or at least, I've never seen it allowed since the day I became a mod. Never. What BLK did before I removed his post is not allowed, it wasn't before and it especially isn't now. Management has nothing to do with that.
Good points. Also, keep in mind what happened to the original Team Sleep album. It leaked when it was unfinished and multiple amazing sounding tracks ended up getting scrapped because of it. Team Sleep's legacy was ultimately affected by that leak. I can name other examples of leaks completely changing tracklistings that end up hurting the artist's work.
And see the people talking about the recent leak sounding more like a live recording or demo because it's essentially a shitty audio rip.
Well I like how this place comes alive during the build up to the new album, like the old days
No date for release and we are almost in August. This is either going to be a suprise release or pushed back to Spring next year.

The way the band and label operate I'm thinking it's pushed to spring to coincide with all the rescheduled dates. If they're saying September I automatically tack on about six months to that.
Vesanic must be getting paid by their management or something. I cannot for the life of me figure out why someone would be so obsessed with policing the sharing of some low-quality recordings. He's leading the charge on their reddit page too, lol.
Well, it's still illegal to share copyrighted material. On their official pages is not a great look either.
Sorry to hear you got fired, man.
I still think you're taking it too far.
Ok guys, been talking with Vesanic about this. I've been through countless leaks over the past 20 years, die hard fans didnt stop buying an album or supporting the band because a shitty leaked track but surely I didn't changed the layout to dark colours to turn SharingLungs into a russian leak forum, so don't get confused with the looks of it. Here's my point of view...We're a community, everyone is free of talking about that reddit or something leak. You'll probably be listening to a leaked song, let's not pretend nobody clicks on that download link, we know how things work. We can't forbid you to do that. Because of this LEAKS AREN'T A TABOO SUBJECT BUT SHARING DIRECT LINKS HERE IS! So please don't share them.
Feel free to talk but please respect the band and each other.
Emotions are high and patience is growing thin but I'm happy that we got to hear a few minutes of new material to really get the hype train goin..
Lockdown the forum just to be safe! Existing members only until album release.
Anyone who's heard of the new tracks, Stef's tuning is for sure lower than drop E based off those heavy songs right? I couldn't tell based off the quality but the guitar sounded either in Drop E or lower than that on those tracks. I remember Sergio saying they played in a new tuning for the album

Yes, he is! It is clear from his TC Electronic video months ago (where he is playing his pink 8 string) that he is a half step down. Rehersal pictures on the band's Instagram also show him playing power chords from the lowest string. And on the clip Abe showed weeks ago, that riff is just an Eb power chord.
So probably not in a drop tuning at all, but a half step down. Tuned like Meshuggah, essentially-- so F-Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb.
Probably too obsessive on my part, but that's what the album wait has done for me!
(God knows what he's got going on if he's using a 9 string)
Rumors is in the room? Oh my! And yes kinda feels like WHO'S SIDE ARE YOU ON!
Easy we are all on the same Team....

Let's just say, whenever they show up, stuff happens.
No one knows who they really are, but it's either a band member or a part of the deftones team.

Beyond Excited for New Tones!!!
maybe tomorrow? maybe friday? god, i can barely wait.
It's always good when rumors pops back up!
I'm just excited there's stuff on the way, I got into a lot of different bands largely thanks to Deftones and how they opened my eyes to different genres etc. so there's always someone releasing something, but when new Deftones is on the way it's still different for me.
There's something special about it, sounds fucked up but when there's a lot bullshit going on in the world or just my own life hearing new Deftones or knowing something is coming is one of those treats that just cuts through all the shit and makes me feel like everything's going to be fine.

the hype is almost as huge as my penis
Anyone want to comment on the song compositions? Like, are there solos, intros/outros, segues, more than two riffs per song, etc.? I get really annoyed when this band gets lazy. KNY was my favorite of theirs since WP because of how fleshed out and complex that album was.

So September it is then?
The 21st is on a Monday though, more likely it would be the 25th or the 18th.
Koi No Yokan was released on a Monday.
Damn it I obviously missed something. Where is the potential September date coming from?

Chino and Abe have given September as the release month, I think and said it in June and Chino more recently, I think when he leaked the album title. So obviously the record company has a date on September that they would like to release it in, but we'll have to wait and see what happens basically.

Sorry, we are just screwing around. Some new, mysterious user called 4bidenknowledg3 mentioned this old song "September" from '80s. First line of the song goes like "Do you remember the 21st day of September" or something like that.

As far as cover art goes, we got girl part 2 with SNW and we got birds part 2 with gore. Maybe this time we'll get skull part 2. Or perhaps we'll even get douche part 2.

Figured I'd attempt to cut some of the tension about these leaks with some humor
I want another girl on the album cover. Also, I really wish they'd bring back the script font in their name. So much more.. Sexier and original that way.

I would love to see that return as well.
A great feeling comes over me every time I see that all caps logo though. Maybe it's time for a new era
Maybe it's because of the (presumed) album title....but I feel the artwork could be something to do with nature, but also very dark in terms of colors.
I often associate music with the colors of their album artwork. Like I can "see" the color in the music. For example I see red in most White Pony songs. I know that sounds totally weird AF but I've heard other people say it to. I think Chino mentioned something like that in the past as well. Now maybe it's because we haven't seen any artwork. but I keep seeing black in most of these songs. There is a warmth alongside that blackness though too.
Probably gonna sound goofy as hell, but if I had to name this music based on mental visuals it would be something like "Black Sunshine"
Black Sunshine is a great White Zombie song
Quote from: 976-EVIL on Jul 30, 2020, 04:56 AM

It's definitely a thing. It's very present in their discography too. Look at those shades of pink of the flamingos on the cover of GORE. or better yet the picture in the gatefold of the record. Tell me you don't feel those warm colors when you listen to it. Or how there is a consistent uplifting vibe throughout Diamond Eyes. That white color of the owl amidst the blackness reflects that perfectly..

Another week with no official news. This is getting dire my fellow fans
1 more week.
2 more hours
Its barely 9 am in California, lots of time left in the day to announce something, or tomorrow.
https://www.instagram.com/p/CDROvk6lrHK/
The old picture of the band means it's probably a WP retrospective but maybe there's some info about the new album.
Probably the same feature of the Metal Hammer Magazine here in the UK
Maynard's apparently interviewed about it in that feature.
The fact that they are posting about the Revolver article on their social media makes me think we're not getting any real news today and I doubt tomorrow, either. Bummer.
Saw this on Reddit, looks sick: https://shop.revolvermag.com/products/copy-of-spring-2020-issue-featuring-pantera-box-set?_pos=2&_sid=d1d18a216&_ss=r
There will be no announcement this week since WP Anniversary Crap is more important...I hope SNW Anniversary will be celebrated the same way.
We probably won't hear much about the new album in August because of WP stuff. Hope I'm wrong

Actually, from record labels business view it might have sense to create buzz around band on occasion of anniversary first. Activate some dormant listeners, create PR hype and only then release new material in hope of getting better reach for it that way. Hope Im wrong too.
Not to sound like a conspiracy or anything, but one of the cover artists for revolver just released a new single in conjunction with the magazine cover...
So it's not impossible to think deftones could do something similar next week maybe?

BTW that artist you're talking about is Greg Puciato from The Dillinger Escape Plan and The Black Queen. His singles have been solid so far - I'm looking forward to his album.

I'm a huge DEP fan. Haven't met many fans of theirs, if any in my personal life. Greg is a cool dude.
I think the only glimmer of hope we have is that rumors has been around, which means we are getting close.

Time to come clean...
I heard the whole record. I have it from an inside source that the band really loved the My Bloody Valentine vibe they achieved on Gore.
Which is why the new record is called Deathsucker and they replaced Stephen Carpenter with a vintage vacuum cleaner.
DUDE!!! That's just plain wrong... XD
Mastodon, band from the same label, today announced album for 11 September and released single. Maybe there is still chance for announcement next week and album in 2nd half of Sep.
So what's the verdict guys? Are we getting some news today or what? Let's get some predictions going. At this point even so much as a teaser is welcome
I don't think we'll get anything today.
I think if we do get anything it'll be next week.
I'm going to be the resident whiny bitch again. But I don't think we're going to get anything for a long time. Not a single official word has been spoken. Just random guessing months. "Spring", "May", "September", "2049". I get COVID-19 has messed a lot of shit up. But they refuse to give us any official updates. Which is just weird how secretive it all is. It has to be the greatest album to grace earth with this much mystery and secrecy. I have more faith in another Tool album coming out than I do in this mysterious album that only a handful of us have heard anything from.

Yeah, probably not. At this point, I'll be surprised if we hear any official word. August has to be the month.
Also, I always feel like Frank Maddocks is dropping little peeks at the artwork in his IG stories, even though that likely isn't the case.
Maybe the art style though?

I equal parts love and loathe when the board gets super active again. However, this won't stop me from checking it three times a day
Just three times?
Touche it's more like 8
Loved you on the podcast Vesanic! Glad to hear you're as much of a fan of Pink Maggit as I am, I think I could happily retire from concerts if I ever got to experience that in person. Seriously though man, thanks for all that you do for the Deftones community.
Sorry, not to derail too much from the topic at hand!
everything got quiet in the last few hours...calm before the storm? sorry, im just dreaming :(
The Golden age of Deftones !!!
Guys I'm from the future. The first single drops next week :)

So am I, the new single has guest vocals by Justin Bieber. Didn't see that coming
Wonder if Frank's gonna tease us tonight.
Unlikely. He and Crook have been doing those streams for awhile now and it's always funk, hip-hop, soul, etc.

If you like that you'll love the 1st single from Black Stallion: Passenger remix produced by Kanye West and featuring your boy Tekashi 69.
The silence in here this weekend is deafening...Maybe Monday will bring us news.
It's the deep breath before the plunge
The recent events have about doubled the length of this thread in the span of a week. Its ramping up to something, hopefully sooner rather than later.
I have a good feeling that something is on the way in this upcoming week. That being said, I had a good feeling that something was coming this past week as well. Am I masochistically putting myself in a position to be let down yet again? Perhaps. Is that going to stop me from being borderline psychotic and checking on the thread every hour on the hour in hopes of some sort of update? Not a chance.
On a separate note though, I wonder if Deftones will do another electronically-driven track on the new album (ie Teenager, Lucky You, Pink Cellphone). It's something they haven't done for the past few records, but I would love to hear how they would approach that sound in their modern incarnation. I know these tracks are a point of contention for some of the fans, but I have always loved them and how they contribute to the atmosphere of their respective albums (yes, even Pink Cellphone. It's a cool song aside from the whole buttfucking part).

I'd love a track like that. That experimental "You've Seen The Butcher" demo is pretty cool-- something like that, where the beat changes almost every bar. With Chino gliding over it, it would have a lot going for it.
In general, I'm just curious as to what the "mood" is gonna be for this new album: hopeful and powerful like DE? Gothic and moody like ATF? Some White Pony experimentation? Maybe a little of it all...
That one leaked song reminds me of Diamond Eyes the most. Not that it is indicative of how the whole album will sound of course. Something makes me feel like they have a few tricks up their sleeve for this next one
I would see another guest vocalist on the new one. It's a real long shot, but I'd love to see someone like Chelsea Wolfe on a track. Obviously they have been mingling a bit with the Pasadena Daydream Festival and that Saudade track. It's not too far out of the realm of possibility, and I think she'd fit like a glove on a more dreamy Deftones song.
I hope there's a song like the Konami Code off SNW in the new album. I miss those types of tracks

I'd be up for that, even though I'm sure fans would automatically dub an electronic track as the worst thing on the album lol. I've also been dying for them to play around with some piano-based music again. They've been very successful the few times they've delved into it - Anniversary, Xerces and FYIHYD. That would be awesome, even if it was just a quick interlude.
I'd realistically say two more days, right? And if not two more days, then two more days after those two days.
3 more days until album announcement, and then 2 more days until single. Deftones have never let me down! Its this week, or sometime this year...
Just from what I've heard, I'm going to guess one of the songs that are out there is the album closer... It's too... Deftones-y not to be. But it's so damn good.

Yeah he definitely is lol.
Chuck almost had me there
I might be going mentally off the rails on this one, but does the guitar at the end of Chuck's Instagram clip sound kind of like Chino's guitar tone? Listen to the guitar at the end of the clip, then listen to around 0:22 of Hearts/Wires, they sound pretty damn similar. I'm trying to A/B the two and they sound eerily similar, but I could just be grasping for straws at this point
Although I know it's trolling, it is a song title, which means... we'll probably be finding something out if he's posting about it, even as a joke.

I think it might be Todd Wilkinson, because he posted some side eyes and heart emoji on the post.

Seems like a new song of Saudade.
That clip is definitely not Deftones. It's 100 percent Saudade. FYI, Chuck has been posting IG clips of music for years - most which never get released.

All the tags on that IG post seem to be Saudade related.
I don't know what this means, but if you go to Frank Maddocks' Instagram page and look at posts he's tagged in, Chuck's recent post shows up
Frank M did the covers for the Saudade singles, so probably has to do with that.
I had no clue he did Saudade's covers too, makes sense

Our boy Stef is 50 today. What better day to announce the new record...

That doesn't seem to me like Deftones' MO. Plus there are probably copyright obstacles to that as well with WB.
But hell, if they wanted to do it and they got clearance I wouldn't complain-- I love that track to death. I definitely want that song officially released at some point.
I love Smile, but I don't want it on the new album. Keep it for the album it was intended for.

If only Eros would be released, hopefully in my lifetime.
Nah, don't want a song that I have listened to to death already lol. I love Smile but I'd rather a new song be in place.
Plus Smile has a very specific sound and it's of the utmost importance that the songs fit together. It would be the same if you tried to tack it on to Gore. It would sound totally out of place.

Agreed, I just hope the guitar work from Stephen is more interesting this time around. I really liked what he did with Smile.. was really disappointed with his contributions to Gore... he can do much better. Rubicon was pretty cool tho.
They should a deluxe edition for the new album and add Melaine, Dallas, and one more Eros song they have almost completed
Is today the day we get some sliver of information?
At this point if they want to delay it, I'd like to know that too. Just come out and say hey, due to COVID the label wants to wait and release the album. At least then we'd know and could wait. Waiting isn't hard in and of itself. It's hard when things leak and people get excited so you feel like every day something is coming but it doesn't. I doubt we get anything this week which makes September look like a dream.
I think they will announce sometime this month. Maybe mid August but I dont even know now
Single drops in Sept. album drop's Halloween. I love to see a Animated music video for the first single.

Was it a listening event?
I don't know about it, but Chino's a big beer guy (obvious with the Belching Beaver collabs). So he's probably friends with the guys who run that brewery and gave them a sneak peek, I'm guessing?
If this is true man they are really just sitting on this thing letting the legend grow 😂😩
Ok someone who went to Wayfinder Brewery please tell me if the album is better than White Pony, thanks.
It's not coming out in 2021.

Stephen, said this on his birthday the other day.
"Not too distant future there will be new music out."
Also. He's on to us.
Good find, it makes me think the album is for sure out in October since he didn't say September for the new album.
We still have 3 ish weeks before we can rule out september.
Their pattern seems to be 4-6 weeks from single to album release... more 4 weeks than 6.. so we still have time for September.
Yeah, nice catch, sharinglungs.
I'm personally still hesitant on it dropping in September just because Chino and Abe both seemed really unsure when they were asked. I mean, I get that they wanna give people answers (also, plans change), but this is one thing I've always appreciated about Stephen in interviews. He never sugarcoats his answers. Anyway, thank fuck we don't have to wait until 2021.
Any more info on this Wayfinder thing?
I cant find anything about wayfinder brewery playing the new album. Maybe chino told them to put phones away
We got another Urantia location on Chuck's Instagram. Doesn't seem Deftones related in any other way though

It looks like he's been hanging with chino. This is from his wife's IG

Caught that video too. Damn, I wish they'd put out an official cover of Disarm now... 😭
So is the label the problem here?
Good question. It's probably a mixture of a lot of different things: the label, COVID, Deftones constantly throwing random months out (I think Frank said April to a fan in February when Chino might not have even finished his vocals yet lmao). Of course, I'm just a guy on a message board and could have no idea what I'm talking about. It could be something else entirely. I think they are also just enjoying living their lives, so it could also be a "we'll get to it when we get to it" situation.

I think its a mixture of people throwing random months out, and the label. I remember back in early 2020 abe and frank said April, then Chino said June in a interview. This was all before covid so I understand. They should give us another album update though like how they did back in April

Let's just say album 9 is said to be a contender for a Best Immersive Audio Album Grammy:

https://immersiveaudioalbum.com/what-is-immersive-audio/
https://immersiveaudioalbum.com/guide-how-to-listen-to-surround-sound-immersive-audio/
Is this just a guess from what you have heard of the album? Or do you have good reason to think this is a possibility?
Good reason. Nine Inch Nails did a rerelease a few years ago of a The Downward Spiral in surround sound:
https://www.discogs.com/Nine-Inch-Nails-The-Downward-Spiral/release/865067
What would be really cool is if album nine was a combination
MQA-CD - https://www.mqa.co.uk/mqa-cd
UHQCD https://www.cdjapan.co.jp/feature/uhqcd_allabout
in surround sound.

You know what, I kind of enjoy all of the mystery and non commital responses from the band, in this day and age where people want info instantly and want things at the drop of a hat, it's quite refreshing
No, fuck that. Do an announcement already ffs

Yeah I'm with you at this point . The noncommittal mystery stuff was ok at the beginning of the year. But after prospective months being thrown out, leaks and verification that it's done it's kind of old. We want information right now because they've been spoon feeding us stuff for half a year already.
Patience people.

Definitely possible. But I'm would assume they'd be bursting at the seams and wouldn't be able to help themselves from dropping hints. Also don't know if the band would trust anyone. I mean. They can't even trust each other not to drop information prematurely.

No one on this board with the exception of Rumors and whoever else is an undercover agent knows any more than the rest of us. To everyone saying be patient. We've been patient! I messaged someone who works with the band in February and they said good things come to those who wait. Been waiting plenty :)

Alright, I think we can now say the album coming out in September is not happening. October or November is more likely...I guess?
I don't think it's safe to say that at all yet, still only the first week of August.
Most deftones singles come out 4 weeks before the album.
Plus it's only Thursday, we still have one more day left for this week lol
This no news, no single, no album art or track titles is bizarre.

Nah, first singles are two months and then a second single one month...although maybe that release plan has changed because of COVID, I dunno. That Stef quote is what's really solidifying it for me not coming in September. "I can't give you an exact release date". If the album was coming in September, he'd say it - especially if he was asked the month before it was supposed to come out. He's a straight shooter (unlike the rest of the band lol).
Yes! i believe they are getting a delay on this record by the record company.
November/december doesnt seem too crazy for me... hell, even next year.
Apparently, YouTube Content ID has been picking up the leak and naming the song. A single is gonna come within the next couple weeks.
Just don't get it. If the record is done and we all have seen the leaks trickle out why not start the hype machine in earnest soon. People are starving for new music and distractions out there.
Maybe they're still deciding on album artwork and order of the tracklist. If we don't hear anything this month then.... lol

There is nothing that happened, at least as far we know, that would justify another postpone.
That's the thing, though - they don't have to justify postponing it. They can put it out whenever they please and there's nothing we can do about it lol. I hope you're right about September, though. I want it in September.
By the way, the time period between Gore and this album is now the longest gap between Deftones albums ever.

Maybe they can release another beer in the meantime so I can black out until the album is released.

sounds like they might be releasing another beer, if you go to the belching beaver instagram on the Phantom Bride post they said if you like this one, wait til you see whats coming in the next few weeks
New beer, new album
Out of curiosity What if the album leaks before its even fully announced? I mean we have gotten a couple of songs (although not the best quality) and apparently song titles and lyrics, whats to stop someone from just dropping it on the net any day now?
lol Chuck liked my comment on instagram about "nice location "*******" huh? without the stars obviously.
Also, I see a facebook post where clips may have been posted, and someone got the video muted with :
"The following music has been detected in your video
"*******" by Deftones" <---- *'s being the song title we now obviously know must be the first single.

Different one, Deftones Republic. It's since been deleted.
Fit for a King just released their new single and have an album release on September 18th. They're on the same label as Norma Jean.

It's just my feeling, but Deftones have terrible PR team. They deserve more attention.
Don't get the criticism of their PR team. What's that based on?
Maybe "terrible" wasn't the word I should have used out there. In my opinion their communication with fans is quite weak. If that's what the guys want, then ok - maybe I don't get it. My point is - their FB/IG pages can be silent for weeks. They don't do many interviews and when they do, it contains the same questions asked again and again. I follow activities of quite a lot of bands, as most of you here. You can't deny that Deftones have a bit poor marketing, right? Maybe it's intentional...or maybe I'm completely wrong.
Many friends of mine forgot that Deftones are still around and were a bit shocked while listening to Gore. Many of them were not aware Gore is out. They were listening to Deftones a lot in the past...
It's pretty clearly intentional. They're pretty much as popular as they've ever been. Subheadlining the big metal and rock festivals and headlining others (they were due to headline Hellfest this year until coronavirus), playing arena-size venues in most places across the world. Critically, they've gained grudging respect from outlets outside of rock and metal press (something they never really had until the last decade) and Gore charted higher on its week of release than any other Deftones album, including White Pony.
What your friends are aware of is pretty irrelevant. I think by most measurements, their PR can't be doing much wrong. Whether you want more communication from them via social media is not actually a PR issue, at least in terms of where they're at now in their career.
Getting back to my post from May - their marketing and PR strategy is really weird. Now in August Im even more sure about that.

I agree with you, the way the band are marketed is pretty poor, but maybe it's at the request of the band themselves? they understand their audience and know that there is a hardcore following. You have to remember the costs involved in marketing and PR, in this current climate with the band not touring, as thats how they make most of their money these days, it's probably not a wise decision financially to go all aggressive on the hype.
Yes, but it is not requiring any special, extraordinary skills. Besides that - we can easily compare DT marketing to other internationally famous metal band.
By the way, no ass-licking, but you are doing much more and better marketing in the internet for them than their PR Team...
Not sure if anyone saw/posted this but Deftones gonna have 2 beers this year? September looks like a White Pony release. Maybe the December one is going to be for the Black Stallion album??? Here's the link... Hopefully they surprise us with a new album one soon.
https://belchingbeaver.com/Oceanside-Belching-Beaver-Landing-beer
(https://belchingbeaver.com/custom/beer/release_calendar_2020.jpg)
Black Stallion in December maybe?
My final prediction: single and album announcement in mid to late August, new album in October and then Black Stallion in December.
I definitely feel like an announcement is coming at the end of August and an album release of October / early November is most likely.
My final prediction is that it ends up being a double album, the first half of which drops in two more hours. The 2nd half on the other hand doesn't drop for another 4 and a half years.
What if the album announcement/first single was already slated to drop by now, but they are withholding it as punishment for leaking Chino's mixlr stream.
Two more hours...
:o

Nah, because it seems to be a strategy of some kind. It's pretty much a pattern at this point that rumors and tokyodrifter show up just before an announcement from the band happens.
It's almost a guarantee.
I mean look 3 new pages of comments from one person's post. They know what they're doing to get the hype train going.
Would be funny to get a single 2 hours after TokyoDrifer's post.
But he doesn't like SharingLeaks, so it is not happening :D
The leaks didn't come from here, though. They came from that Facebook group. We're innocent of this whole sordid affair.

I think this is just a member of sharing lungs messing around. Since we didn't get anything today then next Friday might actually make sense. this album cycle has probably been the most frustrating out of all of them do to covid, lack of communication and secrecy, and just the overall climate in our world right now.
All of this reminds me of the cold open featured during season 3 of The Leftovers. It shows a group of Millerites that are part of a small cult. Their leader has predicted the end of times and they are all so excited about it. He picks a day and all the families go outside onto their roofs and wait for the coming of God. It never happens. It then shows the leader recalculating, granting them a new date! This time with more confidence. Some of the members have left but there are many faithful that believe still. This continues a few times. With each failed calculation and missed date, more people leave. Eventually there is simply one person left that still believes. Her family is embarrassed. She sits on the roof all night during a thunderstorm, thinking THAT is finally God speaking and coming to reward her for keeping faith.
The end of the world never comes though and she is shamed and shunned from her family. That's kind of what it feels like here right now. The only difference is the album will actually come eventually, but at the moment many people are starting to lose faith that anything might happen soon.
For now, "let the mystery be".
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 07, 2020, 10:43 PM
I love The Leftovers and this kinda makes sense!
Just hope the place doesn't get bombed like (I think it was) beginning of season 3.
Yep beginning of Season 3. It's my favorite piece of film work ever, TV or movie. I'm not saying its the "best" of all time. Just my personal favorite :)
Thought I was doing well by going cold on new album anticipation here for just a tad and then last nights football coverage here in Aus started blaring Deftones leading into the half time break lol.

I'm hoping we get a single in late August, but it will probably be around October.
LMAO I posted this LAST YEAR.
Can't believe it's been 4 years since Gore?
Longest drought in between Deftones albums now right? Unless I'm wrong, before this SNW to DE was the longest drought.
SNW to DE and Koi to Gore were both roughly three and a half years (although DE also leaked like two months early). It's been four years and four months since Gore, which is actually really hard to believe because it still feels like it just came out to me.
Yea, it blows my mind to think that Gore came out 4 years ago O_O

Holy smokes that's crazy. It feels like it's been no more than two years for me.
6 more days......
2 more hours...

2 more days until announcement, then 2 more days until single. Watch, I'll be right...

Agreed. Teaser early this week. Single by Friday or next Friday. Take it to the bank.
You guys really are wishful thinkers!
:)
Ahhhh this wait is torture sometimes lol....
I really hope we get something this week..
Two more two more's...
It absolutely won't happen but imagine if they surprise dropped it out of nowhere.
I think if they weren't signed to Warner, they actually would do that.
Broadly agree.
Does anyone know their label situation right now? I have a vague recollection that this is their last album tied to their deal but I might be wrong.
That's a good question. I dunno. Did they re-sign after Maverick became Reprise?
I have this feeling in my balls that we will FOR SURE get something by the end of the week guys. I CAN FEEEEEL IT.

I wish there was a website just hiding something in plain sight that would be easy to find, but you would need to know where to look first... but no... there isn't.
I cannot wait for the announcement tomorrow or on Friday.. I just got this feeling!

Funny thing, though... After going to https://www.deftones.com/ohms, you get back "you are not authorized to view this page" message, while after typing any other random word after slash you get "Oops, The link below might help you find the page you had in mind" message.

Good find, wonder how long they've had that page up in private.
Seems they are using Drupal, which is site management system for non-coders. Maybe record label folks are working on page for new album and gave it this obvious url, which for now is accessible only with admin access.
Take this with a pinch of salt, though. We are all biased here...
When you type the album title at the end its coming back in all uppercase letters now.

Seems that someone is working on this page right now as we speak. This could mean we're really close to announcement now.
I love watching the internet detectives on here work 😁

This is the valuable information we need!
From digging around, nothing can be found/accessed on the site, but it does mean that they're setting it up, they have the domain and it does bring you to a separate page compared to a page that doesn't exist. The site might not be uploaded yet or if it is it's a private page for admins only.
The fact that it now redirects the URL to capital letters when it didn't before is certainly interesting. How long before we see whats behind the curtains who knows... lets keep speculating!
Y'all are crazy! That being said. Keep it up 8)

funny timing for SL to go dead... lol.. now the website doesn't redirect to capital letters. They are actively or were actively working on that website today.
Edit : it does on my phone... But it wasn't doing it on my pc just now... Will double check again in a little bit.
Doing some debugging at deftones.com/ohms (nothing fancy lol, it's pretty easy) I came across a piece of HTML showing that their sublabel is Big Beat Records. I remembered a few posts ago discussing about the sublabel they're signed to.

There's some services that do that...but to have a decent refresh ratio you have to pay, nah. Good luck with the script!
I'm hacking into the Deftones.com mainframe for the new album...kywait, there's an encrypted password wall. Let me bypass that with my l33t hax0r code CMND/CTRL. It worked. I'm in.

Good on him. I guess his "new screams" aren't gonna be on the new record, but once shows start becoming a thing again that'll be sweet to hear.
Chino went thru hell because of his screaming, cool that Sergio is learning to do it safely.
If you guys wanna find an album cover or something like that you should look into https://www.deftones.com/sites/g/files/g2000005441/f/202008/INSERT_FILE_NAME_HERE.jpg
Files uploaded in August will go to that folder, maybe try https://www.deftones.com/sites/g/files/g2000005441/f/202007/INSERT_FILE_NAME_HERE.jpg as well for files uploaded in july. I tried ohms.jpg, cover.jpg, etc but no luck.
Is this against the rules? Sry mods if that's the case.

Hello @rumors, @tokyodrifter!
ehhh, maybe it'll coax them out? lol
I'm really curious about the artwork, aesthetic and color pallette they will use for the new album.

Yeah but just like me you're a fan among millions. Some people out there want every single detail as fast as possible. I used to be one of those fans so the cringe is real.
Honestly no one is as passionate about Deftones as much as the posters on this board. Millions aside we are the ones who transpose...

We all have a good idea what the single is, but they could throw us a curveball and make it a track no one has heard yet. I have a good guess, but maybe you are right and I don't actually know ;)
Don't be so sure. Just because one leak seemed to be the most spread around the internet doesn't mean it's what they'll use as a single.

To be honest I hope it's not the first single. There are at least 2 songs that could be really good first singles, imo.
Who else think these 2 lads need some Deftones albums 1 through 8 songs?

So... Remember the other day when someone discovered that you could go to deftones.com/**** and you would be greeted with a "you don't have access to this page"?
Well if you go to that link now, you get the standard "oops" message, meaning they've removed that page from their site.
It might mean nothing, but it also means that they're at least testing it out on their end to make sure everything works, and I'm assuming they're going to update the main deftones.com site with whatever was on that deftones.com/**** one.
Probably nothing, but interesting to note.
Ok... What I thought was nothing, was the complete opposite... Here's what's hiding in the source code of the website now...

Don't look at me, it was Roidragee that tipped me off about it...
Also...tokyodrifter....
Are you saying this album is a mix of eros/atf/koi sound?
I think that's what he's saying. At the same time, it's also its own thing...right? Because every Deftones album is its own distinct thing IMO.
Those are literally my favourite sounding albums well minus Eros because we don't know what that would sound like other than smile.
WAT, his post already disappeared. Should I delete my quote of it? Don't know what to do.
He might have manually deleted it? I would say leave it, if Ves thinks it should be removed, then he'll remove it most likely.
Seriously, my hype levels are now growing more by the minute...
We see you Tokyo, ninja posting and deleting..
He just put up another one that disappeared within a second. Now we have messages that self destruct? Lol this has been one wild fucking album build up.
But yeah, Frank is the illest.
Yeah shit is happening. Every little tid-bit is building hype levels more and more. This happens every album cycle and it's always
Exhilarating/exhausting
reveal this Friday or next week maybe?
Now let's see if we can summon @rumors with the digital Ouija board.....
I hope we get teaser or album art on Friday... Or both..

I could see it happening Friday. With the site being overhauled it's the most hopeful sign we've gotten..
And they have to know that people are going to be looking at the source of the site, you don't add that kind of info if a reveal isn't imminent.

As per usual 😂
ATF = Heavy, moody.
Koi = Dark, artful.
Eros = Reportedly jammy, psychedelic and experimental.
So **** will be a heavy, moody, dark, artful, jammy, psychedelic and experimental album. In other words, it's a Deftones album. :D
the press is probably listening to the new album right now

Gotta laugh at everyone getting excited. I'm excited too. But nothing is coming out soon. We've been duped before! :( And Tokyo forgot the word heavy in his description. I want some heavy Tones :(
We'll know when we know.
I just can't wait to hear Terry mic that morherfucking snare baby.. let's get Abe back in the mix!!!! He's pretty damn important. Good times ahead guys!
Hell yeah, it's gonna be good to hear a proper mix on my stereo equipment... Cant wait to hear that snap of the snare!
Don't worry Ves, I'm sure they've got their shit on lock down, just fun to look at source code sometimes.

No doubt... whatever it is is what it is until we get more..

I went through and deleted every single post that even acknowledged if I may or may not have heard any of the stuff that was around a few weeks ago.
with an announcement imminent, I'm excited to be on the same page as the fans and the band in terms of excitement and discussion. I'm done digging or looking for anything deeper.

I just want the topic title changed lol
So here's a question, that I want people to answer honestly and truthfully
Who actually knows more than they are letting on? there must be someone.......
i'm not allowed to know anything
:D
If I had to guess, there's probably one maybe two people not named rumors or tokyodrifter that might know something, not everything, but something.
This will be our first Terry Date produced album since 2003.
That's the year I graduated high school.... Bruhhhh
....
Every album they've made with Terry was absolute fire... This is why I have high hopes for the new album.

So glad as a kid my first concert was the back to school tour in 2000. Was taproot, incubus and deftones headlined. I'm blessed to have seen say isn't so/ 7 words! Damn that was 20 years ago .

I like the interview Chino did afterwards, and when asked what he would do with the key, he said he would snort a load of drugs off it. hahahahaha

For all of ye elder statesmen. Is this the most hype you've seen for a record? I know Gore was hyped up prior to release. But prior to that what was the board like when an album release was imminent?

I'm always hyped for a new Deftones album, because they're my favorite band of course. But I tend to get more hyped depending on how good/bad the last album was. Was pumped for a new album because of how great WP and KNY were (my favorites along with Adrenaline) but then severely disappointed by S/T and Gore. But, this band hasn't really ever disappointed twice in a row in my experience. S/T->SNW->Eros (which I don't think was going to be as great as everyone on here seems to think it would have been based upon what we heard and what the band stated, Smile to me is incredibly uninspired) ->DE was their weakest stretch with both SNW and DE being good but not great albums. I view both SNW and DE as being transition albums before the band makes another sonic leap forward after some trauma or problems they experienced. If history is anything to go by, the new one will be another bridge like SNW and DE, giving hints at the sounds and greatness to come but not being quite the perfect album the one following it will be.
But I could just be full of shit, what the hell do I know?
I feel more hyped for this than I did with Gore, for some reason I didn't expect much from that album at all. It's probably my least favorite record
The hype is too real. 5 year lurker. Had to make an account. It's too much.
My theory: album was supposed to drop in September. Then Chino heard the new Hum album and rethought everything. Much rewriting to get that new Hum sound.
The new Hum album is excellent, but that's an awful theory.
I love the "long time lurker"comments. It's obligatory at this point.
This board should be sign ups only to stop the lurkers

Yup, this 100%
I've been so patient for this album (we all have), I think this will be a huge step up from GORE which is at the bottom of my list of Deftones discography. I remember being so hyped for that album, and when it came out and after hundreds of listens I was really disappointed...I wanted to love it but just couldn't. Mixing was trash, Steph wasn't really present, the lyrics were great, but music writing just wasn't cutting it for me. Not once in the whole album did I get chills or feel like "fuck that riff/scream/melody/snare (not present) was sick I gotta rewind that just to hear it again"
Not trying to count my chickens before they hatch but just from listening to those low quality snippets of the new songs, I have a good feeling this album is gonna be special...plus we have Terry back! Ok rant is over.

Gore definitely wasn't what it should've been. But it did give us Acid Hologram. And for me that's the prime example of what post 00's Deftones are about. Sonically cool. Moody. Lush. Great track. Gore isn't terrible in its own right. It's just not a great Deftones record to me.
I'd love it if these leaked snippets were not even on the album just to create more mystery!

Completely agree. Acid Hologram is the best song they've done post DE for me. Has that perfect Deftones feel.

I've been posting here since SNW and this has probably been the craziest buildup. The difference between this and other releases is they've been quieter than ever before, which has been putting the hype into overdrive. There's a real sense of mystery around it with the nocturnal goings on and whatnot. Also, the return of Terry really adds to it. He really represents the "classic Deftones sound" to a lot of the fans.
I'm excited about this one because Terry is back, and they always come back strong after a long hiatus. Ive never strongly disliked a Deftones record either so I got high hopes for this new album
Terry being back turned it into overdrive for me, ever since the rumors started with him being back and then confirmation
I just hope this lives up the hype.....it has to
Strangely, COVID is probably also fueling the hype. It took away touring from them, but it's added more free time for the fans to obsess over the album.

Yeah true, no tour to play any new songs on
I'm looking at this being Deftones 3.0. The 2.0 line-up working with the 1.0 producer. Basically it's another "comeback"record. I think the band and label both know it too. Otherwise there wouldn't be as much secrecy.

That's a good point. It is a comeback in a way. Even though Gore sold well and received very solid reviews in the press, the fan reaction was and still is pretty divergent (for the record, I still really like the album - some of the best songs of the Vega era IMO). There was also that Stef interview about how he didn't like Hearts/Wires, which gave everyone a certain impression that Chino was calling all the shots in the band. They probably want this album to be seen as the band working more as a unit and who can bring that out of them more than the producer of their most beloved album?
I remember stating here before Gore I really believed the band had at least "one more record" with Terry Date. So yeah that is definitely fueling my anticipation. I remember being so amped for WP. Probably more than I am for this album but it's close!
Also, Gore was a good album, some great tracks, not their best but better than most other records out there at the time. Kinda surprised by all the negativity about it.
Personally I did not feel such a hype before Gore, at least not until that Prayers/Triangles teaser. You need to admit, that those 30 seconds with flamingos were amazing. Unfortunately song turned out to be 6/10 for me.
By the way I might die without any info tomorrow. I would feel relieved even if they'll announce it coming in 2022...

That's EXACTLY how I felt about the teaser and subsequent full song. I was hoping for a little more crooning or like a dreamier vocal performance on the chorus. Totally changed how I viewed it. I love the instrumentals though.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 13, 2020, 07:19 PM
As a mod/member since pre-DE era, I don't remember seeing anything like it. The fact we tightened the rules played a role to an extent. You guys are rabid but it's not just you. I see it everywhere online.
Which makes me want to say again: don't even ask for a PM to any past or future leaks. It's not happening this time.
What was the word on making this place private? It's gonna be a shit show here once we get any morsel of official news.
Any way of limiting by join date?
For me, this hype is because we are hoping Deftones to actually come back. Gore wasn't really Deftones.

Its great if its this, not just a half-assed marketing from label. Seems for me that mixlr sneak peaks and revealing title in IG interview was caused by band members pissed that label is doing literally nothing so far to promote this.

Rubicon is otherworldly good. Whole album is a banger. You all miss a lot not feeling its vibe.
Gore has the coolest artwork. And also the best songwriting ideas of any Deftones album with Vega. I could listen to only SNW and Gore for the rest of my life and would be satisfied
I don't see any reason to gatekeep the board, anyone who finds there way here and cares enough to register obviously has a passion for the band and I'd be happy to have them here. Besides, message boards have moderators to deal with anything too crazy.
On another note, I'm really excited to hear the ATF/WP snare on the new record after the way the drums were mixed on Gore (still love it though, especially agree with you guys on Acid Hologram and Rubicon).
I'm always a little too hype and obsessive before new albums. This one has been extra difficult just because of the awful last couple years we all have had and the fact that this is the longest drought with no new music in their entire career. And even between long waits we had stuff like Crosses and Team Sleep to hold us over. Not this time.
I personally loved Gore. Rubicon is my 2nd favorite song all time by any band (2nd to MX). Geometric has fascinating arrangement and execution. It's different, it's intense and it's beautiful. No one really cares about my thoughts on Gore though lol. If you do search my post history.
My point is this-the band I am sure is aware a lot of fans weren't ecstatic about Gore. They are in their late 40s/early 50s. They've always been very grounded, humble and realistic about their success and their future. They are grateful for making it this far. I'm sure they have considered what their future might look like. Chino won't be running around screaming for 20 more years. I have a hunch the band had all that in mind when writing this record. Deftones fueled by a motivation to give the fans an album they would love, while still exploring and expanding their sound as they always do. That's my gut feeling.
I don't know the band. I don't *know* their motivations. I could be speaking out of my ass. I just have a feeling their mindset is "this one is for all the hardcore fans". It's going to be so fucking great, whatever the case.

That quote from Chino you're referencing makes me think of darker colors. I'd love some weird, esoteric visuals as well (that's just me). I'm down as long as it matches the mood of the album (which Deftones/Frank Maddocks excel at).

I think it might be another girl album cover since they have't done that in a while
On Franck Maddocks IG there is recent photo of a girl with trippy color palette. Looks very Deftonish if you'd ask me and Frank 'liked' it too, but this one would be almost too obvious.
I don't think Maddocks would post anything related to something unreleased on IG.
I think the album cover will be... space themed...
I feel as if the album cover will play off the color palette of their summer headliner poster - dark green and black with maybe one other accent color.

Scratch that idea then. In that case, I'm going back to my prediction from a few weeks ago and I say it's going to be Andrenaline douche part 2
Joking aside, I've always trusted Deftones to deliver when it comes to quality cover art. I think the last four albums have all had deliciously lush album covers that serve as a perfect compliment to the music they contain. I often just sit there and gaze at them while listening to the music, it really invokes strong feelings of synesthesia in me and helps give the music a certain "color" in my mind. I can't wait to see what they have in store for the next one.

Every question can be answered with a Portlandia sketch
I can't stay silent and lurk anymore. The hype train has left the station! I think this album is going to be quite the opus. To what some others have said about Gore, I'd love to hear a Terry Date remaster of that album. And unrelated to the new album, Holy Fawn's Death Spells is fucking spectacular for those who haven't heard it.
2000 - WP
2010 - DE
2020 - ?
I got faith, Its time for another great album ;D
I would love to hear another 6 string deftones album.
Stef doesn't even play six strings live for the first three albums anymore so that will never happen. I think seven is his sweet spot.
Who remembers the 30 second song teasers for the S/T record. That was a cool promo tactic. I had those teasers on repeat on my minidisc player

The picture emerges from the black on the website.
I'm a Drupal dev (their site is Drupal), and their site seems to be in maintenance mode. Even the login form is redirecting to that. That means they've put the site "offline" while they make some tweaks.

It's only too obvious to a bunch of obsessive fans like us, the average person visiting the site isn't going to notice anything (are there average people even visiting their site?). We should stop acting like we're dealing in state secrets here. This is a band, and they're just trying to drum up interest for their art in their fans, which clearly has worked.
The full dot image is here: https://www.deftones.com/sites/g/files/g2000005441/f/202008/wLJ2C.png
So it turns out the dot image is inside a "block" called 'album-artwork-release', which is hidden at this moment:

Giving away a release date isn't really that much though if the full reveal is coming in the next few hours. It's a tantalising clue I guess.

I'm not holding my breath for a full reveal. Remember how they revealed the Diamond Eyes cover artwork bit by bit in a series of videos? I don't think we even had the release date by then.
You might be right. To me, 0925 fits just well enough to seem like a major clue but not enough to give you anything else.
I'm not expecting a single today. Other than that, it's hard to tell. It might be that this is it for today and the band maybe post an announcement date on their socials?
I don't know, I have a feeling this is going to be the album reveal. You're redirected to this page no matter what address you put in, even just going to deftones.com takes you there. I doubt they would have this teaser up for a substantial amount of time where you can't access anything else on the site, you can't even go to purchase tickets for the upcoming tour. Plus the fact that this is the only accessible page on the website definitely points to this being some sort of big drop.

Yeah it does seem like there's something big coming very soon.
Also - Friday's the ideal day to announce a single to be premiered on Daniel P Carter's Sunday night radio show. Just a theory.

Indeed, as I said, every page redirects to that, that page is called 'Album artwork release', its URL is /0925 (Sept. 25) and has a hidden block with the dotted image on it. It's coming up today probably.
https://www.deftones.com/sites/g/files/g2000005441/f/202008/wLJ2C.png
I wonder if they'll keep the dotted image for a couple days, or just announce something today. We will see
Sharinglungs - refresh

Dont think ive ever sat here refreshing so many pages for so long
Yeha I have a feeling that's it for today too. Hope im wrong tho
I swear to god Vesanic, if that ends up being true, I'm putting all the blame on you for speaking it into existence
Well 09:25 came and went :(
If something does drop today, it's bound to come at the turn of some hour. Ie, it's 9:28am right now where I'm at, so it'd probably drop at 10 or 11 or something.

Looks like a barcode...
Feel like the dot image thing is it for today...maybe for a while, as sad as it seems. It's too cool and mysterious of an element to put out there for just a few hours and to immediately follow up with a single or teaser. I see it lasting a while...maybe changing/altering somehow.
(I will also admit to having done everything I can to this dot image. Inverted colors, reversing, doubling and folding, seeing if it is Morse Code etc. Currently trying to line it up with any constellations).
Nice commitment, possibly brail?

It's only too obvious to a bunch of obsessive fans like us, the average person visiting the site isn't going to notice anything (are there average people even visiting their site?).
I would have thought the same but, in the link?
And uh yeah, a lot of average people visit bands' websites...
I meant average in the sense of casual. That is to say, the people who heard Change 20 years ago and have their songs pop up occasionally on their spotify probably aren't giving their site much traffic, let alone obsessively scouring the net for information on their new album. This is for the crazies like us who visit their sites regularly to purchase merch, tickets, and consume whatever else they're giving us. This is Deftones we're talking about, they're not some super famous pop artist that is consistently pulling in tons of traffic and interest from new fans. This is about riling up the small but rabid fanbase that they have.
Facebook photo just went black
Deftones went black out on their social media profile pics... It's happening
That picture reminds me of an old-fashioned electric light board (for lack of a better description, not exactly a science major lol) or something.

Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 14, 2020, 04:38 PM
Yeah no. Deftones are still one of the most influential rock bands of this generation and have millions of fans worldwide.
You have to qualify "millions of fans" a little better. Sure, there are millions of people who consider themselves fans, they like their music. How many of those are visiting their site on the regular, and again, of those, how many are desperately searching for clues?
This is my favorite band and one that I'm completely obsessed with (obviously since I'm on this site arguing about them) and I've rarely visited their homepage over the years. I've got a bunch of friends that are really into the band and I'd doubt that even half of them have been their webpage.

Last thing Chino posted to Twitter was a track called "The Lights Are Going Out" by OMD. Coincidence?
Also, title of the album pretty much confirmed in all that source code folks are dropping. And if it's right (I hope it is, as it's a sweet very Deftones-ish title) I want some Brian Eno-level ambient textures in this sucker.

Just a complete collection playlist. All albums including Covers and B Sides, in a weird order though, it goes:
WP
Gore
KNY
DE
SNW
B Sides
Deftones
ATF
Adrenaline
Covers
Ie. all albums in reverse order except with WP first and Covers last

I like the way you think, who's an expert on dot to dots!? lol
With no numbers it may be difficult
The art kind of reminds me of scientific data images. With the purported album title, could work out.
I'm visually impaired and learned braille in high school. From the looks of the spacing it doesn't appear to be braille. Braille is in patterns of 6 dots; two vertical rows of 3 dots each with variations. The sequencing is all over the place..I wish it was though cause I'd be deciphering that shit.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 14, 2020, 05:00 PM
It's definitely not braille.
If you flip it and blur your vision, it kinda looks like a bird. ;D
another bird on the album art confirmed!

Interesting how the dots are white, black and gray. When you combine white and black, you get gray.
Morse code? 1s and 0s for coding language?
All massively overthinking this.
The gray cluster on the upper left side kinda looks like it says DEF to me. ;D
Interesting that the grey dots are a lot more compact than the white too
OK guys, if you print the image, cut the paper in half, then cut the half in half again, then place the paper perpendicular to a mirror, snap a picture, then flip the picture horizontally, print it again and repeat the process, you'll see something that looks like a face.
Looks like a sad face
You know what they say...when in doubt...

I went at him and showed him the picture and asked him for the truth. The apparent hobo then became a blinding flash of starlight before transforming into Chino. He stared right into my eyes and said "Two more hours" before turning into a bunch of bats and flying away.
hahaha xD, well memed gentlesir!
It doesn't make sense for them to leave the album title in their source code if they're not going to announce it the same day. In my opinion.
Anyone work at a grocery store so we can scan the image and see what pops up?

If you unhide the <h2> element that says Album Artwork Release, it'll show that text, behind the image, and it almost looks like the dots fill in the letters of Album Artwork Release... I dont think that means anything but cool little find.
I love that we all get to go through this process at least one more time. Somehow, the band making everything black and posting that weird image makes the whole wait even more intense. I am super excited though.
Something's gotta give over the weekend, I'd imagine.

My guess is that it's one of many layers that build the image up. I bet tomorrow or Monday the image name will change and with it we'll see a bit more resolution. Rinse repeat until it's revealed.
Edit... okay I was wrong!
Just putting this here.
The ohm is defined as an electrical resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of one volt, applied to these points, produces in the conductor a current of one ampere, the conductor not being the seat of any electromotive force.

I saw a reference to a js library with that name, yes. That's what made me believe the image is one of many layers.
I know absolute NOTHING about website development, coding etc. Like ZERO.
Someone tell me...when you Select All on the current homepage, what's the black box in the bottom right corner. Am I over-stretching or does it look the same size as a traditional media player screen / default YouTube viewer size?

Its hard to believe the site remains on lockdown for a whole week, just adding layers until it depicts a full album artwork. I don't think they'll make the access to their merchandise or ticket shop unavailable for that long. It's coming today

As the image fades in on the site it reminds me of the S/T skull a bit.
The more I look at it it looks like a crying skull? There's like a small triangle in the center that reminds me of the nose of a skull. Would be so badass if they did a Dia De Los Muertos candy skull as the artwork for this album. :D :D :D :D
10 mins to noon on the west coast
If the crying eyes coincides with what I saw on Maddocks' IG stories a few weeks ago, it's going to be a GREAT album cover.
I absolutely love the Saturday Night Wrist cover art. Maybe this will be in the vein of that? Looks like the face in question is somber, or reflective. Too early to be certain tho

Did slow rollout became their brand gimmick over time? Like in 2010 it took almost a week to decode that fucking owl.
This already has format of LP cover. Maybe what will be revealed next days are a layers of pixels in different colours.
Could be an interlude or something like that from the album. Feels sort of Team Sleepish to me,
Did I miss something? Midi?

Not trolling, there's a random snare hit at 0:18
I heard it
Whatever this is, it does line up with Tokyo mentioning the music had some "synthy" and "ominous" sounds. So far this rollout matches those descriptions.
I honestly think the midi thing is a dead end. Technically that site can produce several different songs for that same image depending on how you have the settings set.
Maybe they'll reveal the album art over the weekend and have the single out on Tuesday? That would be nice. lol..

Or maybe this "complete black" thing is their way of telling us that they are going completely black metal.
Now everything makes sense - that is why Behemoth changed their FB profile picture just like Blacktones :o
I dont remember seeing it before, but all the javacript files are now linked on the main website... and one has a music player with an autoplay for an audio file... there's no audio file, but its there and ready.

Apparently someone in the Brazilian community was able to read braille off it and it translates to "Darkness" (remember "complete black"?)
Huh, guess I was dead wrong. They ARE Tool.
Deftones are goin' ULTRA BLACK like the new Nas song lol:

Just a little observation /interpretation. Also I'm certain this is not with the band had in mind, just some thoughts I have.
If you look at the picture in a broad perspective it could be viewed as stars in the night sky, except in a digital format. Maybe this is what computers or machines see when they look into the night sky.
Or could also be interpreted as our entire universe is simulated through a machine, all the stars and all of space included.

False alarm
just my own dumb ass/./.
Fuck I really hope I'm driving home from work tonight blaring a new song.
fifteen pages discussing a black background with 10 white pixels on it
That's what four years of no album news will get you.
I would love to see some progress in the image tomorrow
it also seems like they removed the album title from the source code again lol
So are we 100% sure that this isn't the final album cover? Because I can see it making sense relating to the album title, but it'd be...boring. So boring. Completely different from Gore though, that's for sure. I'm so glad we finally have SOMETHING now at least. Shame that I'm moving house on Tuesday and will have no Internet access for god knows how long though lol so hopefully if they're releasing a single soon, it'll be before that.
Wait, I didn't notice there was a white background with black dots posted somewhere else too, where was that posted?

I hope it's like Gore where they gave more pieces to the album artwork everyday.
I really hope this just evolves over the weekend, and not the entire week. Unfortunately, I have a suspicion the single is a week away. I'd probably bet money on it. No insider info or something I found. Just my gut feeling. I'd love to be wrong. Regardless, shit is happening and I love it.

No, I think it's definitely a face like sharinglungs and others pointed out. It will be a slow reveal, kinda like some of the other album covers.
Well I'm hyped
I love, love, love the idea of an electric light board forming into a crying face. Like a machine who figured out how to have emotions and is instantly depressed. It's kinda brilliant.
Another observation. The image is very much in the vein of computing/circuitry/machine style. Think about the definition of the album title. All of a sudden, it makes sense. If this was the album cover, or close to it, I'd be happy. I think the remaining artwork would expand on it. Remember how Fear Inoculum's cover seemed meh after that long wait? But once we got all the artwork the accompanied it, it was fucking great. Maybe same applies here.
Also, this isn't relevant to the album but interesting to see in light of the image we got today. The 2nd image in particular is fantastic. It's called "Light Art". Check it out. https://mymodernmet.com/light-art-created-using/

Exactly. This right here. Again...think about the album title name/definition.....
Wait, you know what? What if the album is some thematic combination of previous covers?
A woman's face - Around the Fur, Saturday Night Wrist.

This is great thinking especially since Abe said they were going back to their core sounds on this album. It would make sense if the artwork was a call back to older albums while still being completely new and fresh

Hey, Tokyo, do you think in the future whenever Deftones hang em up for good, you'd tell us your identity? I have a guess but I'm sure it's wrong. IDK though, sometimes a personality can be spotted even through an anonymous forum. But having you in particular around here makes this even more fun. I wouldn't even want to know who you are until many years from now.
All I can say is I hope Chino and all the band members continue on with music in some shape or form in the distant future, whether that's with Deftones, producing other upcoming bands, solo albums, side projects, etc.
In the interview below starting at 8:00 Chino says he'll always have something to do with music in the future. Even if it's working in a record store lol... shit I can already picture him owning his own record store in Portland ;D....any who check out the interview below. I know the interview is over 20 yrs old but makes me wonder if he believes the same thing or if his mentality has changed especially after so many years.

I see them going on like Radiohead.
Going back to the gore reveal... they seem to have released the 30 second teaser trailer about a day before they started teasing the album artwork.
They did one image a day for 9 days.
Then the prayers/triangles single released on the last day... so... who knows.. we might get something every day if thats the case.
Also you could shazam the teaser which revealed the full album art before it was done... so if we get an audio clip.. we'll probably be able to see the album art..
I don't see the dot image anymore on their site .... can anybody else confirm this?
Quote from: There Will Be Blood on Aug 15, 2020, 04:08 AM

I just went to check too... It's gone no longer on their page or in the source
just checked too, I'm not seeing it anymore either
They changed the email for Album art teaser to email for 0925 teaser.... Looks like they're currently updating the source... Looks like 0925 might be the legit date.
Also there's a new string..
0925: "Music:0925 Details",
What time did the dots image appear today? I imagine the site will change again at roughly the same time.
what do all those strings mean... like "Music:0925 Details"?
I think it was between 6 and 8 am Pacific time..

Quote from: Roidragee on Aug 15, 2020, 04:17 AM

I think it just means that once they tell us the name and details, that's where the album info will be? I'm guessing 0925 is just a placeholder and they'll change it to the album name

Scratch that... The image is back
Yup it's back
Can anyone check to see if the image is different in any way?
Looks the same to me
yeah looks exactly the same to me too. they will probably change it again at the same time tomorrow

Barely. Is this how they update the artwork every 24h? Sigh, see you next friday guys and gals
Doing a comparison in photoshop turning off the original from yesterday to today, there are more white dots than black.
This is gonna take forever lol
Oh don't spread this out over a week...
the "black" dots are actually a lighter color grey in todays.. they were a darker grey yesterday.
Shit! Wake me up when September ends...
Definitely a face and it Looks like it's crying! Back to female artwork.
For what it's worth, my guess is a girl's face in water wearing goggles (😂) coming up for air
I like the digital crying face idea that someone had speculated.

Ha, we've been waiting for over four years. What's one more week?
I'm speculating (until the image evolves into something contradictory) that the two photos were a part of the same photoshoot, and Maddocks maybe applied the same edits/filters/whatever. May even be the same woman, in terms of modeling.
It'd make thematic sense for their tour poster to have a similar mood/composition to the album cover.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 15, 2020, 04:57 PM
@sharinglungs Sorry mate, if they shut this place down I'm going to riot. Discussing it is fair, just no post of the graphic.
No worries, just checkin... although, if you saw the image.. it fits right?
So question on the Reddit takedown... was that just an image of whats on the deftones.com site or was it something else?
The label will not shut this place down, chill
I wonder why they would take down images of the teaser ? I could see if someone posted the actual artwork.. but just strange that they would remove the teaser..

Well I'm not involved with what you guys have to deal with from them, so if you think they are serious, then I get it
I mean, the label shoulda maybe realized Deftones fans are VERY passionate and would go super sleuth on this one. You're basically putting a puzzle in front of us and then saying "But don't solve the puzzle!" I mean, that's kinda the fun of it. Whatever.
This is Warner Records guys... They go though every Deftones post on YouTube to see if you're stealing their music and flag you. They're super sensitive about it.

I understand fighting music leaks 100%. They are obviously justified and have every right to protect their product. But again, the image on deftones.com is like a puzzle. Don't get mad when people start solving the puzzle. You're basically telling Deftones fans not to be passionate and excited. Just my opinion.
Yep, They're even crawling the facebook groups too...
as I've heard of even unlisted videos on youtube getting taken down, only being shared in facebook groups....
Just be patient, At least we can see the wheels are in motion. It's coming soon.
If y'all want a wild ride, read the Gore thread from Page 1... it's pretty much the same thing going on reveal wise.
they're going to keep being on our asses even when the album came out, lol. 'nobody talks about deftones on the internet!'

I can definitely get on yours as your comments from the last couple of years have been almost nothing but cynical garbage. Quit the attitude.
cynicism is my favorite kind of humor :( sorry if i made anyone uncomfortable
Maybe labels marketing want everyone to experience artism of slowly appearing dots. Other possiblity is they look after numbers of visitors and submitted emails.
They know how special this album will probably be so they're being more cautious maybe
yo warner suck my tiny lil dick you corporate cunts
I can't even remember how they revealed Gore, feels like an eternity ago. But I'm guessing their play here is to slowly tease the album artwork and then when it's fully revealed, it'll be revealed along with the title, release date and maybe a single. Hopefully a single, but I guess there's no guarantee.

I think they did slow reveal over days for Gore and DE as well. Never liked it. Deftones art needs no gimmicks.
The Gore reveal was on IG. This new reveal feels more ominous and old school with it being on their website instead of through their social media.
Do you think it's every time someone signs up to their mailing list it reveals a new pixel?
Quote from: Shadow46/2 on Aug 15, 2020, 06:46 PM

no these are static images
If I remember correctly, the DE cover reveal was in quick Youtube videos with the Diamond Eyes instrumental playing over it.
I easily like this reveal the most out of the three because it's very unique and different.
Yeah, you have to keep casual fans in mind. Not everybody is as OBSESSED as we are. For instance, a buddy of mine likes them, but I don't think he got around to listening to Gore until like a year after it came out.
Prayers/Triangles was played by Zane Lowe on Beats if I remember correctly
It was indeed. We also got a 30 second teaser before the album art teaser, but they seem to be almost on the same track for revealing this album as they were for gore... Except they're not putting pieces of the art work on Instagram.
That was almost like a trend back in 2016 to make one big image in IG by splitting it into 9 pieces.

I know Ves is going to delete that post above me but... It's not about stopping it from spreading, it's about not spreading it further, on here specifically. As request by Warner music. And just common fucking sense.
They'll probably play the single at the Daniel P. Carter show once the artwork is revealed. So maybe in 2 weeks after it gets revealed next weekend
So, if SL is now the official Deftones board (didn't their site link directly here once upon a time?), I guess there goes the idea of it being made private. Oh well lol.

I wouldn't call it a gimmick really, they need to promote the album and why not do it like this? I mean I'd rather they just surprised us with an entire album out of nowhere lol but in terms of marketing it, they need to do what works best. Especially if they maybe feel a little nervous about not being able to tour the album for a good while yet.
Some posts today were deleted, so I guess I arrived too late. Have you cracked the puzzle already? If that is what I think it is, then it will take awhile to get it fully presented on their website...
I have all 32 tracks from the new cd for 1,000,000$
It's his board so it's his call. Saul Goodman.
I kind of like having the new people around, expect when they fucking want something. But it's cool to see new/younger fans really getting into Deftones, or older fans finally seeing an opinion so outrageous that after 8 years of lurking they made an account just to say 'NO YOU ARE WRONG". It's fun lol.
I know it's difficult for the mods, but we appreciate the hard work. In fact, I would consider donating if there was a way. It would be around album release and wouldn't be much, but if there is any way I can help I would love to. I know I get "cringey" and emo and rant-y, etc etc but *generally* everyone has always been cool. I love this place. Even my family knows what SharingLungs is :)

Sometimes band deliveres something complete artistically - songs and artwork - but label folks spoil its impression by putting plain marketing tricks on top. Take Mein video for other example of "gimmick".
But I see your point and if this boosts sales and earnings for band and crew, I gotta respect that. Plus, this slow rollout is in fact bit more cool then previous ones.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 15, 2020, 04:36 PMEDIT: The label has removed some stuff on reddit, you can be sure they're looking at us as well. SharingLungs has been up since the mid 2000s. Let's not compromise that by being impatient. This is a band. It's their music. Let them do what they want on their own terms if you're truly a fan and respect what they do.
They put lots of responsibility on you guys. It's a small absurd for me if we consider the fact, that those lol quality recordings basically came from the band. Additionally their webcrew wasn't too clever with all those rookie mistakes in the site code. And now the puzzle from their website has probably been solved by some of us, but again no one can talk about it :D
Don't get me wrong - I respect the band and their crew. If that's what they want, then ok - they have all the rights to do whatever they want. My personal opinion is of course irrelevant. But hey, that should be the place where we share our opinions, right ?
I hope the reveal tomorrow is a bigger, more revealing look at the album art... maybe not a full reveal but maybe an actual part of the image.

Saturday Night Wrist = Hail to the Thief
Diamond Eyes = In Rainbows
Koi No Yokan = A Moon Shaped Pool
Gore = The King of Limbs
Album Nine = Kid A?
What do you think, tokyodrifter? Am I off base with this? You said the new one is synthy. Kid A is pretty synthy. Or is Eros Kid A? It's kind of amazing how they line up, honestly.
P.S. - I'm not throwing shade at either Gore or The King of Limbs. I consider both of them to be albums that are divisive but, in actuality, great.
So since we are all anticipating a great Album and we probably would be challenged to find a tighter sphincter for some new TONES!!!
Let's change the subject....
Who wins in a Fight?
Bill the Butcher or Daniel Plainview?
In a fight? Bill the Butcher easily. Plainview is a schemer, but Bill would leave a hatchet stuck in Plainview's throat before he ever had a chance to concoct a plan. Sorry, There Will Be Blood, I'm only speaking facts!
There Will Be Blood is a better film than Gangs, though...and this is coming from a Scorsese fanboy.
Got excited enough to log in again :D
Hope everyone is safe in these trying times. Two more hours

Absolutely on point Ink! However as a schemer, DP would have likely sized up William and shot him before he could get close enough. Although not his style. Might have even drank his milkshake...with Abe?

Dude the butcher all the way!!
Gangs is a great film but there will be be blood is better movie over all. Also remember Johnny green wood did the music of there will be blood was fantastic!!!!! Gangs kinda fell apart in the end. Still one of my favorite movies. I love Daniel day Lewis he's a amazing actor.
Sorry for the typos I'm super drunk. Cheers people!!

Saul Goodman. What are you sipping on? I'm drinking some good craft beers right now. Long Island craft beers.
BTW, I'm going to get SUPER fucked up when the album comes out. Marijuana, mushrooms, beer luges, horse tranquilizers - the whole nine yards. I think I owe that to myself.

That crazy coke dealer in Boogie Nights would probably get his Asian teenage friend to throw firecrackers at both Plainview and Bill the Butcher and fuck them both up. That was Daniel Day-Lewis in prosthetic makeup, right? ;D
Hoping they do some kind of pre order package for the new album, the last one I did was for Koi, got the album, t-shirt and lithograph
Definitely. They are sure to have a whole merch line for the new album.
I have some hopes, some dreams, you know? I just hope those hopes and dreams one day come true.

With image 2, the one posted yesterday with more dots, I found something interesting in MS Paint. Basically I can closely create the image Frank Maddocks showed on his IG. First, save the image from the website. Instead of black with white dots, it saves it as white with grey dots. Then chose the color black and you use the "fill with color" button somewhere on the image. It fills the backfround with black, but the dots become white circle shapes. Some of those "circles" have different shades of grey inside of them if you look SUPER close or SUPER far away. The smaller you look at it, you VERY clearly see the eyes/eyebrows though. Just hold Ctrl and mouse wheel down on PC. Finger your phone if on mobile.. https://imgur.com/a/gXgdpPF
Make it really small to see the eyes. Make it really big, big enough to see every individual dot and you will see how some just *slighty* vary. But yeah, all this was done in like 30 seconds in paint with the image they released on the website. Anyone here can try it. I'd like to try different colors, looking at the image in a mirror, doing both with different colors, etc but I am way too tired. Be back in 8-9 hours to see what is new. G'night boys!
Guys don't talk about any post that might be maybe a leak content from other forums or sites here please. Any mishap will be a ban. Thank you.
I wonder how many white dots will be added today..
YOU MUST NOT MENTION THE DOTS
(https://i.imgur.com/SaxXYO9.gif)
another new image... just seems to be filling in more of the eyes/eyebrows...
Well this new image clearly shows that it's going to be a face of some kind. Even without doing any fancy Photoshop.
1-2 days more on eyes / eyebrows, and then 3 more or so days on the mouth since its probably gonna be a face now
Yup, clearly eyes. I can even see a pupil beginning to form in the right eye.
seems like it's updated again since I checked a few hours ago
The full album cover leaked. Here it is:

Apparently there might be some lyrics getting teased in the complete collection on Spotify? Check my own summer.
They just did an instagram story with a link to the complete collection on Spotify
Cock teasing bastards!
Go to the new playlist and check out Engine No. 9, My Own Summer, and One Weak. One Weak has some new graphic and My Own Summer plus Engine No. 9 has lyrics that say "this is our time, we devour the days ahead." Could just be messing with us tho

I'm wondering about the new sequencing though. Why switch it up?
Anyone know if they left those hints on Friday all this time when they added the new playlist? Or did they just add that in this morning?

If those graphics were just added today and they truly are some cryptic way of saying that something is dropping in "One Weak", then whoever predicted that a single would drop on Daniel P Carter's show might be right on the money. Doesn't his show air on Sundays?

Putting Hexagram in the middle of White Pony is pretty strange. Maybe a hint at Black Stallion? A different side of White Pony, perhaps?
Something is definitely happening. 3 more hours?
Something for sure next Friday or next Sunday depending on when those hints dropped. And the crowd goes wild?

It's pretty obvious that the album cover is going to be the Deftones Summer Tour 2020 poster. Maybe not with the same text design, but probably the same color scheme.
I doubt they would ever give this board the satisfaction.

I'm thinking that it may be the same model, same composition, and same mood as the tour poster; but a slightly different pose. As if taken from the same photoshoot. Time will tell! I'm down either way, or if it's something totally different.
Using their old songs to hint at their new songs? This is some of the raddest promotion they've ever done. Love it.
Was skeptical about their album teasings so far but this one is spot on. This black and white aestethic gives really high hopes for album artwork too

I think its possible. Maybe they'll do the sound snippet on a Friday and have the world premiere of the single be on the Daniel P. Carter show on Sunday.
They didn't do it for Koi - they released Leathers all in one shot. They did play Rosemary and Poltergeist live beforehand, though. With how immersive and involved this new promotion is, I think we'll definitely hear some sound teases in the next few days.

Not a fan of snippets either. I reckon it's a solid way for the promotional campaign to say "It's coming soon for real guys" but I prefer having just one or two singles then the album release. Even with just a few seconds of preview you naturally try to elaborate and imagine the whole thing for yourself for eventually no good reason.
Assuming that these Spotify graphics and the twitter post are lyrics to a new song, I think there's also a chance that the single is going to be something other than the one that everyone assumed would be the first single. I don't know if these lyrics are in any of the other leaks, I just heard the main one.

The lyrics are from one weak, so looks like they're hinting at releasing something (music or info) in a week's time.

The spotify lyrics are probably for the new single I think. It sounds like a Deftones lyric to me
The Spotify lyrics are from another new song. 100%

I was actually just going through your youtube page earlier today - some amazing content on there and I love that it's sorted out era-wise. Thanks for sharing all this great footage man!
Why would they put up a complete collection now? They could have teased the lyrics just the same had they not uploaded a playlist containing all their songs... + the ordering in the playlist seems to have no meaning

That does seem reasonable, but would they really tease a remix of WP while at the same teasing their new album? Nothing to complain about that though haha
I know this is for the new album, but just imagine it this whole thing was for Black Stallion hahaha, i would be pissed but pleased.

I think so. Also, putting hints at new lyrics on Spotify makes the whole thing feel mysterious, like you gotta do some extra work to find it.

I hope this is fair game ves... but I think I found something... most likely nothing, but from the One Weak spotify video... I came up with this... it's almost like an optical illusion.. if you defocus your eyes you can see a a pattern.. almost like they're lining up... Also if you stare at it like a 3d picture, you get another kind of pattern...

I've been messing around with this image for over an hour in Piccy. It's basically a program that allows you to changes colors, hue, saturation, contrast, brightness, etc. IDK anything about this stuff but my daughter showed me how to mess with it. I haven't found anything signicant, but some of the dots are connected to each other with this blue hue radiating off of them. I isolated it and got the image black and blue only. It was cool but still did not see any meaningful pattern or image. Definitely fun though! I am certain nothing will come of it, but there's always a chance....

I haven't found anything signicant, but some of the dots are connected to each other with this blue hue radiating off of them. I isolated it and got the image black and blue only. It was cool but still did not see any meaningful pattern or image. Definitely fun though! I am certain nothing will come of it, but there's always a chance....
I'll be starring at this until I get a migraine

I hope this is fair game ves... but I think I found something... most likely nothing, but from the One Weak spotify video... I came up with this... it's almost like an optical illusion.. if you defocus your eyes you can see a a pattern.. almost like they're lining up... Also if you stare at it like a 3d picture, you get another kind of pattern...
Let the speculation begin:

Reminds me of the backdrop for their SNW tour/shows. Crazy shit playing behind them on that tour.
This has been a terrible birthday... had to get a COVID-19 test after finding out my fiance's grandmother had to be taken to the ICU from complications from it. It's been a very stressful day but checking SL for anymore news or discoveries have really helped get me through today and I want to thank you guys for this amazing community.. Deftones is my favorite art in the world and I'm loving this rollout so much.

So sorry to hear that man. The Deftones community is a great place of healing though. I'm looking forward to this album more than anything because it's been so depressing for me these last couple months. We're all in this together!

Thanks man I appreciate that. Yeah 2020 has been a fucking dumpster fire but Chino and the boys are gonna save us.
*cheers*
I think I accidentally DM'd someone a post that was supposed to go here lol. Anyways....
I've been working on that image for hours now. I am about to take a break. Some of the dots are connected with a blue glow on them. I used a program and isolated all the blue and took out the green/red. Then I added a blur effect hoping to see something interesting. No luck, but I feel like I am getting somewhere. But yeah....taking a break for now. This is what I've got so far. https://imgur.com/a/yn15mCV
And GR1X7S, I wish you all the best man.

I'm good man, one day at a time. You guys are a huge help though believe that!
What they're doing with this is brilliant when you think about the fact that they have an album out next month and they need to get people talking and build some buzz in such a short time. It's working..
Here's to hopefully getting a teaser track sooner than later!

Yeah, I'm really liking how they're hyping it up. Im sure they're gonna drop more cryptic messages inside spotify throughout the week
It also gives the impression the band are super confident with this new material and want as many people to hear it as possible
Can someone please tell me if it's possible to see the stuff on Spotify from a PC? I've tried everything and I can't find a way to find those graphics/GIFs. I saw it on my fiances phone but I cant find anywhere to see it on PC. Please help lol

I can't find a way to watch them on PC either through the web player or the desktop app. I'm a bit frustrated with it as well, my iOS app is up to date but I can't see them on my phone even, but my wife can get them on her phone. Go figure.

Well at least it's not just me. I *really* need to record that loop of images during One Weak and save it so I can go through it and see what I can find. Maybe the universe is telling me to just be done for the day.
I got a free Steam key for a new indie game called Dreamscaper. Guess I'll go try that out.
I can't believe more people haven't jumped on all this. The band tweets "No you will never find me", then has a flashing image in that song. They are taunting us and inviting us to dig into a mystery. I doubt they would hide anything huge behind these mysteries but I am *certain* their is something to be found. Some artwork, images, song clips....something.
What would be the point of tweeting those exact words and then adding strange content to that exact song, just for there to be nothing to find? At minimum there are some hidden Easter Eggs in all these clues.
Help me out here guys. Let's see what we get tomorrow and work on this! Unless Tokyo comes here and directly states "There is no hidden mystery, just take it at face value" then I'm going to dig for clues. Personally I think the band expected more people to get in on this. Instead everyone is just like "Oh cool some cryptic shit. Wonder what it means? Probably nothing" Have some fun y'all! lol
it's deftones, slowly revealing an image through a couple of dots is as cryptic as they're gonna get
2 more hours.
the joys of working from home, I can look forward to more detail on the image reveal, yes!
Been quiet in here for a few hours, everything okay team?
Dos horas mas
altre due ore
< 2 hours...
For new dots.
A lot of people seem to think the picture on their website is the woman from their 2020 tour poster... I doubt it's that, it would be weird if they teased a photo we've already seen to this extent

Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 17, 2020, 01:34 PM
What I don't understand is why they would give the artwork away on a tour poster...
That's exactly it, seems a bit over the top going this far with the mystery and all if it's a photo we've already seen. Maybe it could be a similar photo from the same photo shoot of the model?
well if it is the same as the tour poster, the colour scheme will most probably be green and black
Quote from: Gaz on Aug 17, 2020, 01:44 PM

There's a peach/pink variant of the poster too
I still hope that cover is different from poster actually and "proof" posted on reddit just created unnecesary confusion. Certain detalis dont add up, like eyebrows on teaser seem to be very clear while on poster they blend with dark background.
Whatever the album cover is, I hope they keep the Black and White aesthetic
+1
this old cinema/etheral vibe in yesterdays teasers is so sweet
Maybe new Spotify mix in half hour? That would be 24 hrs from yesterday... Or just new lyrics on different songs?
Knife prty, and Diamond Eyes now have the lyrics "This is our time, we devour the days ahead" inside spotify and Hexagram has a blinking circle loop now.

Also... Look at the first letter of the song title that have the flashing dota and dashes....

One Weak
Hexagram
My Own Summer (Shove it)
Hmmmmm
I don't think itll be my own summer, they already used that for lyrics.
Mascara or Minerva maybe?
And then Sextape or Street Carp for the S?

Agreed.
Maybe a newb question (which is ironic, as I've been a fan since voting for Seven Words agains RATM's "Bulls on Parade" on my local alternative station's nightly Cage Match feature), BUT: what ever happened to the milky looking bathtub pics Chino had as his Twitter profile pic for a while? I was REALLY hoping something from that shoot would be the cover. Anyone know what that was from?
Yeah, it wouldn't make sense for the label to be super protective of a picture everyone has already seen. I think it will be different, although maybe it's some kind of variant.
This is. definitely one very effective way to get their spotify play count up!
The cover almost looks like its gonna just be eyes, eyebrows, and a tear. That's where all the negative space seems to be-- none where a nose or mouth, even jawline, would be.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. And if I'm being honest, I like that concept a lot more than the tour poster photo (which is a little boring and plain Jane for an album cover IMO).

Chino, Frank and DJ Crook all seem to have a knack for finding weird old photos and videos so I would guess Chino's Twitter pic was just a photo he found and liked.

Same here, man. The tour poster is cool, and may surely fit thematically with the album cover. But I really like how just eyes, eyebrows, and a tear evoke a mood without need for anything else-- very minimalist.
Frank Maddocks just posted the pic on his Instagram story as well.. ;D
Man, it's been so long since I've logged in, I forgot my last username and the email I initially signed up with. But I'm glad this place is still active and trying to figure out what's happening with the new album.

Not much of a change, but I thjnk you're right. Eyes and brows are way more pronounced and there's a lot less empty space below them
My excitement level is through the roof !!
My bet is this carries on all week, full album art and single on Friday.
excited to see dots, who would have thought it! haha

Maybe the new image needs to be inverted to sound like something?
Thank God for you technically proficient wizards! I'm almost as old as the guys in the band. All I'm getting is a mono chromatic "Litebrite" from the 80's vibe...
Appreciate the effort Fellas!!!

Vesanic, I tried to defend you on reddit (not that you need any help) and those jerks downvoted me lol. I post on there as MisterInsect.
If you do an inversion of the eyes and whatnot in Photoshop and you look at all 4 images so far... There can't be much more to the image to reveal... There seems to be no nose or mouth
4 more reveals will take us to Friday, full reveal on Friday then?
I'm hoping for a album reveal on Wednesday and single this Friday. We're almost there

They could do a loop on Twitch since they have an account on there but thats doubtful. maybe the final day is on their website and they link it in their FB, Twitter, and Instagram accounts
Deftones just posted hexagram lyrics on FB.
Think they'll post one of the following tomorrow?
Mascara
Mein
Minerva
Minus Blindfold
Moana
Mx
My Own Summer

Pretty sure they aren't going this way. I can see the pattern.
The only thing I can think of, in how to reveal the final letter with the album title is if on Wednesday, they do the Spotify thing, but then their afternoon post should be to fb/insta/twitter with a video of the morse code... Slowly revealing each letter then going into an album audio teaser...
I don't think one weak was for for one week. I think they did that to throw us for a loop...

I agree, I think they only actually used that song because (as far as I'm aware) they actually don't have any other songs beginning with O to use?

I'm looking at this being Deftones 3.0. The 2.0 line-up working with the 1.0 producer. Basically it's another "comeback"record. I think the band and label both know it too. Otherwise there wouldn't be as much secrecy.
The fact that they refer to old material so much is in line with "Deftones 3.0" theory posted here days ago. As well as fact that label is so bold with marketing.

Right I agree. But if it was a countdown, 7,6,5, etc this would work.
I was trying to not get banned by giving out the next letter of the album title. Lol.
There's a guy on twitter called samuel_savage who has posted the 'dots' lined up with a version of the screaming woman at a different angle and it fits them perfectly.

No mouth or nose yet, but they seem to be doing a slow reveal so they wouldn't put it all in straight away. It might not be that, but it lines up with the dots when you put the image of her face there at that angle so... Go check it out
To be honest, I don't think the eyes in the dotted image even look all that similar to the eyes in the tour poster. Different shape, positioning, etc.

There's a guy on twitter called samuel_savage who has posted the 'dots' lined up with a version of the screaming woman at a different angle and it fits them perfectly.
If that's not the new album cover then they've been having fun misleading us all haha ;D
It won't be.. The deftones.com image has no mouth or nose

I know, but if you manipulate the image correctly, you'll see that no dots for the mouth or nose shape exist. I don't think the album cover reveal will drag on THAT long.. If they reveal the title Wednesday, I don't see why they wouldn't finish showing the album cover as well.

It could end up being something completely different and they might just be playing with us to be fair, let's wait and see
It'll be whatever the image in the website is revealing, they're not going to do something completely different. They're just not going to use the image from their tour poster. It just makes no sense.
It's only going to get wilder the closer it gets!
They better drop something soon - these terribly low quality leaks are all over the FB fangroups. Actually it's really hard not to stumble upon them (Lord, please protect innocent people from checking them - it will destroy whole perception). One link was up for like 4 hours for all users before they took it down after my report...
I'm pretty sure it's going to be a face, if you adjust the size of the picture to look smaller it's alot more pronounced that the eyes look like they're starting to form pupils and "the girl" is looking to the left....and the eye on the right side reminds me of runny "Mascara" from crying. Mascara has to have the next hint tomorrow hopefully.
Or I could just be seein shit haha ;D either way we'll find out sooooon

I like most of the boards and groups but that DEFTONES group on FB is absolute dog shit. I don't want to be some music Nazi, but a lot of the other music groups they post are trash and a lot of the people there suck.

I wonder if the album cover will just be a series of dots anyway.
See a face but initially thought of a couple of dolphins. I could see them doing an aquatic theme.
Unable to see any of this Spotify stuff, am I missing much?
Think I get the gist of it from what u guys have said
Blinking rectangle and circle are morse code for O and H, respectively. They posted the lyrics to One Weak and Hexagram so people are inclined to listen to the songs on spotify and see the code
It's likely we'll see a social media update with lyrics of a song starting with M and a morse code on spotify spelling out the letter M today.
Hope that's okay for me to post

It's because the new album is gonna be killer!

Hi. I'm sure the music press do have copies but what have you seen?
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 18, 2020, 09:23 AM
From what I can tell, they posted unreleased lyrics on My Own Summer, Engine No. 9, Knife Party and Diamond Eyes on Spotify.
Still on Spotify, there's a rectangle series of dots with one that's blinking, on One Weak. There's also the same thing on Hexagram, in a circle shape as opposed to the rectangle. Timely fashioned, they posted the lyrics of One Weak to twitter, and the lyrics of Hexagram to Facebook.
The way I see it, they're not picking those songs for a specific reason. They're just making their fans revisit their former releases while teasing the upcoming one. After all, they're posting that link to the "Complete collection" as well. I could be wrong!
What about that blinking dot on One Weak and Hexagram though? It was a 4 on One Weak yeah? What about Hexagram?
Cheers Ves, exactly what I was after. No clue about the blinking dot. They seem obsessed with dots at the minute lol
In an attempt to work out the potential vibe of the lead single, what were the leads for the other albums?
Bored, My Own Summer, Change, Minerva, Hole, Diamond Eyes, Swerve, P/T?
Are there any similarities here? I guess for the most part they tend to be a mix of Ambient and heavy. None particularly leaning one way or another in the context of their respective albums.
A fairly large proportion of those are also album openers (6/8).
Interesting to see what they chuck at us this time.
I don't think the flashing dot in the rectangle of one weak means anything.
There's also a flashing square in the lyrics ones too... I think it's just a look they went for
COVID-19 has clearly given the Warner marketing team extra time to come up with a creative drip campaign. Loving how they're integrating all their media channels.
Not going to purposefully reveal the album name though I think we all know it by now. HOWEVER...
I've seen where people are referring to the electricity angle as one of the definitions of the LIKELY NEW DEFTONES ALBUM NAME. And it was sort of a bummer to think THAT would be the title, in my opinion.
But there's another use of the word, you know...and it's very much in line with some of their other stuff. Tried digging for info and, ironically, found it on the Echoing the Sound forums. "LIKELY NEW DEFTONES ALBUMS TITLE is considered by many Eastern religions as the Primal Sound. In these religions, it is believed that God created sound first and therefore LIKELY NEW DEFTONES ALBUMS TITLE is the seed sound of all creation..."
If this is the direction they are going with this album, I am STOKED beyond measure. Give me some synth/chunky guitar bridges, please...
(Sorry if this was mentioned before...94 pages is a lot to filter through).

Theory time...what if the album cover is gonna be similar to this art style?
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/ac/DuranRio.jpg)
Except the inverse - instead of the face of a happy looking woman, it's just the crying eyes of a woman. We all know how much Chino is into the 80's new wave bands, so I wouldn't be surprised. I could be wrong, though - if it's illustrated in that style, the dots would be gone and they seem to be a big component in all of this.
There are two types of Deftones album covers
Animal and girl
You'd think the cover art would have something to do with the circuitry theme, would it really be a photographed face in the style of SNW and ATF?
Still all up for debate, but I see a winged insect on a girls face. Maybe a moth?

It's actually revealing pretty quickly now. If you look at all the images in a sequence, it's pretty drastic the changes.

got it, but this kind of marketing ploy is usually for fans to decipher/talk about it. I find it weird we can't. I blame chino.

Still all up for debate, but I see a winged insect on a girls face. Maybe a moth?
The 'wing' is covering the left eye as it's perched on the girls nose.
As you all know I've been running through these images in a program called Piccy. I changed the contrast and saturation, and then added some blur to make the dots not look like dots, and I definitely saw something like this to. I saw something running down the left side of the picture, and definitely an object around the nose area. I was kind of thinking cigarette with smoke coming off of it. But yeah I definitely think there's something in the nose area and something going down the right side of her face. smoke, water, insect or something else entirely. I really wish I would have said something so I could say I was the first to notice, but it's fine LOL I'm glad someone else said something so now I don't look like the crazy guy.
Do you think they will reveal the tracklist too?
To be fair, none of us would probably be guessing what they were spelling out if we didn't already know.

If the album is indeed coming out on September 25th, I would think so.
What's the odds of them pulling a Hum and just dropping the whole album on Friday? One out of a million? I mean, crazier things have happened. We are living in different times in 2020...

That would be nice but renders the date of 25th September on the website somewhat moot. Unless they went the Nick Cave route and dropped the digital version earlier than the physical release. So, possible, I guess.

While the 0925 url makes that date seem likely, it's not 100% until they announce it.

I'm hoping for "coming out of the water." Lady with cigarette was already done with Team Sleep. Yawn. Hey, while we're speculating, maybe it's not the album cover at all and it's a picture of Chelsea Wolfe, confirming a collaboration on the album. (Before I get destroyed, this is a joke...about the cover, not the hope for a Chelsea collab because I've been wanting that something awful for years).

Based on the costs alone (world famous Hollywood studio and Terry Date who doesn't come cheap), and of course the economic downturn, I would imagine the record company would want to build as much hype as possible on this to maximise returns. A full release this month is incredible unlikely.

Surprise release could generate hype. But knowing deftones and their past album release, very unlikely.
I'm thinking album artwork reveal and a new song this Friday
Thats my prediction
Food for thought: If you turn the image 90 degrees left, I now see two small birds (one with a long tail) sitting on something. I remember as a kid always wondering how birds could sit on high voltage electric wires and not get electrocuted.

I'm assuming you've heard Shadows and light?
I would love to hear her do Maynard's part of Passenger on a slowed down, haunting remix
Dolphins. Definitely Dolphins. Bluefin Tunas. Dolphin Lundgren.
Yeah, it's not adding up. If it's a pic we've already seen, why would the label be so hellbent on removing pics of anyone who guessed it?
It ISN'T the tour photo.
it doesn't make sense, but damn it fits so well. Maybe they are counting on that to throw people off. Maybe it really is dolphins.

I hope that it's not the album cover but you've gotta admit it does fit the teaser. maybe a similar pic from the same photo shoot?
I was hoping for the album cover to do more with the name of the album ... something with electricity... or something abstract ... like NiN The Fragile... always loved the album art for that record... and KNY is my favorite album artwork of the Sergio Era... what's your guys favorite out of the last 3 records?

Gore but I do love all 3. Stronger art in Sergio era than in Chi era imo, but not by much, I do love all their artwork tbh, not many bands are as consistent with their cover art.
In fact Iron Maiden (minus DoD) and Tool are the only 2 that jump to mind
If you look at the picture from today: https://www.deftones.com/sites/g/files/g2000005441/f/202008/0hXjO.png
The bottom half is almost completely filled out and it doesn't match the mouth of that tour 2020 pic. So my guess is that only half the picture was used for this.
DId anyone try to convert this for binary then to text? By scanning each line from left to line, white = 1, black = 0.

Gore for me.
Diamond Eyes is my favorite Sergio record, it has the most emotional attachment behind it because of Chi's accident and the uncertainty of the band. They came through in most Deftones fashion showing their will to persevere and create even in the hardest of situations. Most of the songs on there are solid gold. KNY was great and Gore was... well it did give us Acid Hologram.
This is a pretty juvenile trick, but it harkens back to how the brain, when not given enough information, will make cognitive leaps to "complete" incomplete sights or sounds. If you look at the website image as it currently is and squint your eyes to nearly shut and look at it for a few seconds, you get a much better picture of what is really there. Again, I know how dumb this sounds, but it's actually sort of cool.
Koi No Yokan has some of the best album art ever. Somehow it perfectly conveys the sounds and vibes from that record.. love em all though...
Fair enough. I wouldn't want my silly posts to shut anyone down.
and yes, I agree old people absolutely have the right to shag.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 18, 2020, 07:04 PM
We're not allowing the covert art because the label has removed it from reddit and they threatened to close sharinglungs before.

If you put 2 copies of the same image from the website on top of each other in Photoshop, then invert the colors of one of them, and then use a filter to only show you the different pixels, you can see that only the eyes / tear on the right side, have been getting filled in.. There's no mouth or nose... So who knows what the final image will show..
If they don't reveal the name and album art tomorrow, I'm guessing they're going to let the final clue linger for 24 hours, before revealing.
So what other social network will they use for the lyrics image next? TikTok? Linked In? LOL
YouTube
I'm hoping for a reveal tomorrow. If the image is any more filled in it may be fairly apparent what it is, and could take the surprise out of the actual reveal.
I guess it's hard to tell until we see any more, but either way I'll still be hyped.

if it's on youtube, it must be longer than 2-3 seconds and probably reveal what it was hinted at. maybe with a tiny sound bit of the new single.
Its either gonna be on YouTube, or it'll be displayed on all their social media accounts tomorrow
Don't think it's gonna be announced tomorrow - I still think "one weak" is very intentional. All will be revealed by Friday...maybe Thursday if we're lucky.

Yeah but what if they've been planning all of this since they picked the album title?
(https://www.reactiongifs.com/r/2013/10/tim-and-eric-mind-blown.gif)
Honestly I don't care much about the artwork, but I really wanna know the tracklist. The names they give to the songs are pretty interesting, cryptic and they always have gathered my attention.
they are indeed good at picking interesting song titles.

Absolutely True!
A potential clue - when the website picture starts fading in, the eyes look a lot more defined. As the picture gets brighter, the eyes become less defined and the pupils fade.

I'm about 10 pages behind. Why do people think we'll be getting something tomorrow or Friday? I feel like it's going to be longer than we think. Hopefully it's not that song that was kind of a widespread leak. Then it'd be like not hearing new music

This is tricky to explain without revealing the album title which they have been revealing each day, letter by letter, by Morse Code. Tomorrow should reveal the final letter so we expect the artwork and hopefully a song to follow not too long after, certainly by the end of the week.
The more I look at the image and look it at through different filters (mainly blur and stuff that affects black and white colors) the more I think that one of two things-
A- This isn't a face at all
B-The most interesting/defining part of the final image won't be the eyes.
It's all speculation of course. It's totally a Deftones thing to do another female cover. I'd love that. I also feel like they would total do a rollout, trying to deceive us into thinking it was a female face, just for it to be some clever positioning that looks like a face when in dot form but is actually something completely different.
We are so close now either way :)

Because we know the album title, and how many letters it is... So far they've revealed 3 out of 4 letters.

No technically we'd be at 4 with Street Carp.. One Weak (7), Hexagram(6 sides), Minerva, Street Carp.

Feel like 7 words would have been the 7 if it was a count down? and Minerva was just skipped if we're now on 5. Cool theory though.
My guess 4 could be something like Gore which only has 4 letters.
3 could be 976 EVIL cus 3 numbers.
2 could be My Own Summer cus 2 hits the 6
1 should be One Weak, or Bored as its their 1st song on their 1st album.
Again, dont actually think its a count down, though guess what the other numbers could be

Love Radiohead and love Greenwood's scores! I had forgotten to respond to it, but I loved that comparison that someone drew between Deftones & Radiohead's discography a few pages back
I wonder if they are so excited by the crazily bulding hype that they just went "Fuck it, let's release the final lyric video now!"?
I think the spotify stuff is done, because they didn't add any other canvas things on spotify with new lyrics when they added Street Carp. It's just the ones we got with Minervaa.
I find it funny chino says the album name supposedly in a interview and all the Warner marketing guys were like chino broooo we had this great idea to release song titles to the letters of the album! He's like oops my bad. Lol

I'd have done it last week but I sense tensions are too high right now.
Also find it funny when the band released the Hexagram lyrics "if you keep listening you can hear it for miles" a lot of newbs on fb were like listen to what?!? I can't hear anything!!!! LMAO
As God damn excited as I am to hear a new track, I'm going to exert some control and not over-listen to it as I want to enjoy the whole album when it lands and not skip a track(s) that I become too overly familiar with as has happened with previous albums.

I overplayed P/T and doomed user, and still enjoyed them when the album dropped. Sometime you can enjoy a song more in the context of an album.

I find it very interesting that S/T is more well-represented in the lyric videos than any other album. Another hint, maybe?

The tear is not present, either. There are also pupils that are forming on this album art that aren't seen on the tour poster.

For reaching out? Why is that weird? If she thought it was weird she likely would've ignored me.
I don't really think it's weird especially if you are polite about it and don't do it often. It's neat that she responded at least. Well we have waited and now our time is almost here. Good time to be a Deftones fan :) I'm really excited to hear Frank's work on this album, especially since Tokyo mentioned "synth". I just recently fell in love with the instrumental version of Risk. Quite possibly my favorite Frank song. If by any chance you haven't checked out the instrumental version of Diamond Eyes I highly recommend doing so.

I mean I guess it's a bit unusual. I just said "hey, I'm a huge fan of the band and was wondering if there was any news she was allowed to share. Thanks for your consideration and take care." She was pretty cool about it I'd say. I didn't bug her afterward. I really just wanted to try and get info to share here. I think it was right around the time we heard rumblings about May for a release.
I have a feeling Frank is going to put forth his best work yet on this album.
Deftones are one the very few bands whose releases sound unpredictable, that's one thing I love abt them, the mystery

No doubt, definitely the watermark for Frank thus far.
Just gotta feeling Terry Date is gonna bring back the best in the Band. Abe's snare, Step's crunch and the Groove between the Bass and Chino.

Can't agree with you there, although I get It.
There are so many great tracks but not the Flow of an album like WP? Hell call it what it is.
However, I might have to drive a Rubicon and put the Goon Squad in Leathers to be Entombed...

Fully agree with you, mate.
What was the time interval between the Minerva post and the Street Carp post?
Not holding out for anything to surprise us today, but you never know. I still think it will be Friday
I think maybe we'll get some more dots, maybe some cryptic post like the "You'll never find me" tweet
I'm hoping it's something more concrete today, I doubt they'll continue in the same way since the name is complete now

"Kerrang! can corroborate this. While we're not at liberty to reveal full details yet, the first single is a gargantuan addition to Deftones' library. Chino, always a soft-spoken, laidback interviewee, can't hide his excitement when he remembers the first time it came into his life – via email.
"That was one of the first things written," he reveals. "Stephen sent a demo of the whole song three or so years ago. I love opening up my email and seeing something from him because it really feels like he's engaged – that engages me like crazy." "

Like my excitement for this album couldn't have gotten any stronger on my dear I can't wait to dive into this album. I spent my 20's 30's and now thankfully my 40's loving this band and remembering exactly where I was in my life for every new release dating back to Adrenaline. Cheers to number 9 !!!
This article breaking is the biggest indication that something is happening this week than anything else we've gotten since the rollout started imo.

That article was great, and the way they described the first single makes me excited to hear it soon. I wonder when that'll be
That Kerrang interview has me very happy. Deftones and a very few select others (5-6 at most) are really the only "heavy" bands I listen to anymore. I've become a very big fan of drone, ambient, and psybient. The inclusion of seagulls and ocean waves and reports of Frank being more prominent have me pumped. Just give me the shirt/lithograph/digital/physical merch pack already and take all my money!

It's usually between 10AM EDT and 11AM EDT... I think yesterday they posted a little earlier.
Ye they were a bit early yesterday. Though seeing as they posted in the evening yesterday too, it wouldnt surprise me if they were late on anything today
Metalsucks have posted about the album title.
I might be too hopeful, but I don't think a single today is out of the question. We're just over a month away from the album if the URL theory is confirmed, and dropping a single today would really kick the hype into overdrive.
You know something big is happening when the zines are picking up on the cryptic marketing.

My guess is a teaser of the single (like a riff) with the album name and release date today, like they did with Gore. Single later this week, premiered on some radio station.
It isn't the tour poster. It makes absolutely no sense to tease an image we've already seen.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 19, 2020, 01:54 PM
What's the general consensus on the tour poster artwork being the new album artwork?
To me it makes sense since that tour was gonna be promo tour for the album. And I think that what looks like a tear could be just the shadow or a side of the woman's face.
I'd still be surprised if they had really revealed it through a tour poster before any actual album promo but I don't see it any other possibilities.
Your thoughts?

I'm thinking definitely not the tour poster, but similar aesthetic. Winged insect sitting on a girls nose, coming out of water. The "tear" looks like the water level to her face, but still hard to tell.
Wouldn't be mad if it turned out to be the tour poster, though!
I'm not sure. What throws me off every time is the eyes look big and sad (and not just because of the supposed tear), while the woman's eyes on the tour poster doesn't. The woman on the tour poster just looks crazy.
Guess we'll find out today?
Also, that Kerrang article was solid. Only 10 tracks this time around surprised me, but it now makes sense when tokyodrifter alluded to ATF.
It'll be something different that's for sure... hopefully we'll know in the next couple of days..
I think it's the tour poster girl, but you never know?

Doesn't make sense to have basically released the album at so far ahead of time on a tour poster. I'm banking on something sort of washed out, sort of blurred soft colors. I'm also banking on that "tear" to be some running makeup/eyeliner. I think something that pronounced in the dot-form would have to be dark.
Still not sure about the whole "insect on the nose" thing. Would be cool if it was steam, coming up off of water. So maybe a woman in a bathtub (going back to Chino's old Twitter profile pic) of hot water. Maybe the thing on the nose is a rose petal from the bath water or something?
Actually, now that I'm writing it, that's my bet: woman in a hot bathtub, steam rising, running eyeliner, rose petal or some sort off leaf-type thing clinging to her face.
MetalSucks is straight up saying the album is slated to come out on September 25th instead of "rumored to" or something like that.
https://www.kerrang.com/features/the-secrets-behind-deftones-new-album-inside-the-studio-for-the-first-time/
My final guess: just sad crying eyes and staying with the dot composition. I'm probably wrong, but that's what I'll go with.

RE: the cover. I changed my mind.
If they ARE eyes (and I'm still not convinced they are, as the right one seems out of alignment), the thing obstructing the right eye is the tip of fingers. More notably, hands pressed together in prayer. It works. Check the position and alignment. Eyes looking skyward, the potential weeping or runny eyeliner as someone is weeping as they pray, hands pressed together in front of them.

If they ARE eyes (and I'm still not convinced they are, as the right one seems out of alignment), the thing obstructing the right eye is the tip of fingers. More notably, hands pressed together in prayer. It works. Check the position and alignment. Eyes looking skyward, the potential weeping or runny eyeliner as someone is weeping as they pray, hands pressed together in front of them.
Interesting theory.
That website picture is creeping me out now. Can't wait for it to be fully revealed.
I doubt it's going to be the tour poster picture but certainly in keeping with it.
I'm still convinced (I use the word loosely) it's two birds. Perhaps even Seagulls ;)
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 19, 2020, 02:43 PM
Maybe it's like a shot taken from afar of eyes drawn in the sand lol
Actually that's not a bad shout in terms of composition - maybe the website image is just part of the overall picture and the actual image is wider?
Still going with dolphins though ::)
Could be two lemon-cucumbers.
In the article Chino talked about using seagulls for the first time. Weren't there seagull sounds in rapture? Or was it rats!rats!rats!?
Wonder if any of Frank Maddock's older images on his Instagram could be a sign.
New website pic is up, but it still looks almost identical to yesterday lol.
They're going to keep us waiting suffering, aren't they?
I was hoping for an announcement today but that makes me think maybe not.

compared to the first image, almost all the white dots are filled in and the eyes got darker

Ha, didn't go too crazy besides a couple beers. It did the trick, although it seems like I'll have to pound more mother effin' beers until Friday comes now.
I hope the final cover is basically just more or less what is on their website now. The picture is creepy as hell.
Being that the album is only ten songs, I wonder if one or two of them will have long running times. I'd love a really long closing track.
Maybe we'll get another update once the instagram/facebook story expires?

Something could happen at 3 p.m. EST, I think.
Also, this one has me curious: "Stunning moments mount up: one song starts with a bassline so rapid Sergio Vega's left hand probably has no fingerprints left."
Next update at 3pm EST and then another one after the Insta/Facebook story expires? Wouldn't make sense for them not to say something if one of their clues/hints disappears lol
Where we at boys?

Just out of curiosity, has Deftones ever dropped a single before album artwork has dropped? I want to say Leathers dropped before KNY artwork, but I'm probably totally misremembering

Yup, KNY and also SNW. Can't remember for some of the earlier albums, but probably.
Dont remember exactly but I think DE and KNY was on YouTube with different artwork at first.

There was a little confusion over the DE cover because of the single cover of DE, which was a city skyline. Same title, so I can see the confusion.

Yes you're right, and Leathers was on YouTube with some electrical heart if I remember correctly.

I'd be surprised. The hype is building up fast and as a result we hope that something's gonna come out any minute now because that's what we like to believe, but there's no proof that the single or even the teaser is gonna drop today or even by friday. All we know is that something's gonna happen "soon" and we're super excited about it.
I dunno to me, it feels like, once the story with street carp expires, unless they post it as a regular post on Instagram or Facebook, then they'd be going backwards, which doesn't make much sense...
So hopefully at 7 pm EDT we will know something.
I mean, we already know the title yet we can't mention that which we already know. ???

I would be surprised if we get anything else today. That article from Kerrang was fantastic. They are gonna let that simmer a day or two. They better check the stove though because the hype is boiling over.
Funny side note-when I type the word "the" in my phone, "dots" is now one of the three recommended next words lmao
Location dropped on IG and Twitter...
New IG and Twitter video today. I have no idea what message they're trying to send now lol
At that point it's ok for me if we only get something on Friday. But I really wish that it could bring the whole stuff: artwork, tracklist, single... Nice way to finish a week.

No you aren't. I've spent probably an average of at least 3 hours a day dissecting the dot images in every way I can think of. Another few hours a day chilling here.......yeah my days have basically been all DEFTONES. Back to work/out of quarantine Saturday. It's gonna be my luck that something big happens while I'm at work this weekend lol
I don't think interviews are going to have much influence when they release anything... Whatever happens has always been the plan regardless of interviews.

Who lives in LA here??? Go look at the billboard!
Unfortunately, I live on a small island in the middle of the English channel :(
Booking a flight to LAX...
I live about a 6 hour drive from there. I just started my shift, so I'll head down there when I'm off. I'll let you guys know by tomorrow.
Could be another clue?
I Hope is the artwork
There's got to be a fan close by who will share what's currently on the billboard within an hour or two.

The album cover will be a pink dolphin, watch
It's strange, when you navigate in Google Maps to Canter's you can see a billboard across the street. It's across from Dolls Kills but when you navigate in front of there the billboard is missing... The pictures are usually not up to date so when in front of Canters it shows a billboard for Clash of the Titans movie.
that guy on twitter saying he's only 20 minutes away. >:( >:( go take a pic!!!
Lol I used to live about two minutes away from there. Back in NY now, though...sorry. Someone will post it quick, though.

To think, this hunting game is practically only meant for us, no one who's not a die-hard fan of Deftones would think anything of that tweet and yet here we are looking for an IRL billboard hidden in plain sight from the start because it might reveal a clue about the next album.
This is so silly but I'm having the most fun ever here.
If you call the Pink Dolphin, you are connected to a recording with the first 30 seconds of a new track.
I am of course, just kidding. But that would be cool as hell.
It could be covered up on that billboard waiting for fans to get there to reveal!?

We can finally put the tour poster theory to rest!
Also: that's just awesome art.

I would guess this is the artwork. Then again, they paid for a billboard that means nothing to no one except the most hardcore fans. It doesn't even have the band name or album title. 99% of the people the see it will literally have no idea what it means. This is simply an awesome surprise for the fans :D
I suspect it's more of the obscure marketing leading us around like the Da Vinci Code lol.

Yesterday was not a good day. Today has been awesome so far! IDk if Thatdeftkid was legit, but I'll be ecstatic if we get a single on Friday. Even if not, I'm so stoked the album is 37 days away. After this long and arduous wait, we are finally reaching the destination!!
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Where was that?
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 19, 2020, 07:31 PM
The artwork will be beach related. The album has seagulls in the music and I just remembered that one pic they posted early 2019 with the seagulls flying over the garbage.
And I have been saying something "nature" related. Beach definitely counts. Though, I've also been saying very dark colors. Beach doesn't fit that description. I was half right ;)

I've been saying "nature related with a very dark color scheme". Is that close at all?
I get the connection with the birds and garbage, but from what we've been shown it seems like the website/billboard art is the cover. Makes more sense with how heavy and dark the album is reported to be-- beach art wouldn't fit. Plus, the seagulls were only mentioned as present in one track.
I'm pretty sure the billboard is the artwork.
I can't lie, this went from one of the most infuriating rollouts to being one of the most creative and fun. At the end of the day, the desired goal is still hearing new Deftones, but the hunt and uncovering all of these clues has been a fun past time in and of itself.
I was hoping the crying eyes would be the cover. Not sure how I feel about seagulls and the beach, although it obviously fits thematically with the seagull song.
@thatdeftkid
@tokyodrifter
will there be any guest appearances on the new album, other than seagulls.
Where are you guys getting anything beach related?
If the art is as the billboard shows (a human face made of dots), that actually fits well with the supposed album title.
With the underscores on the billboard, it also seems like they may be going for an "electronic" mood regarding album art (more possible connection to title). Kinda like computer code. May be a hint for future music videos.

Beach related is close.
The album cover is actually Stephen pumping iron at Muscle Beach in Venice by his nearby home in L.A. It'll look something like this:

And why would they "reveal" the name yesterday and then blow the lid on the album art the next, and make no announcement? It's gotta be coming... maybe for the third announcement tonight?

Probably right, but then again, the billboard doesn't name the band or the album. It's only a billboard for hardcore fans. It's not really an "ad" IMO. The billboard show the top half of the pic being revealed this week. Not the bottom half though. The bottom half could still be missing almost everything and change the entire context. IDK, just speculation :)

the billboard has much more dots on it than on the website. Since the website reveals, only dots has been added, not removed. i fully expect the album art to be all with dots with just a few dark dots (the eyes). if this art is not even used it would have been a crazy amount of wasted time for the marketing team.

It's great to read this article and see how excited the band is about this album. I love how they mention multiple times they were grinning some responses.
" Don't smell your own farts" is some solid life advice right there.
Imagine them being like: well, we tried our best, its kinda meh but whatever.

Reminds me of Tyler The Creator back when he was promoting his album Wolf, all of the press and radio appearances he did to support the album all consisted of him talking about how "the shit sucks" and "it's seriously not good"
So, no announcement or official confirmation of the album title as yet so we still can't refer to it by its name. But ... we do have a billboard in L.A. with the website graphic that only Deftones fans who have been following the campaign so far would recognise. And perhaps a single on Fridsy. Ace! This has been a crazy week guys.
They walked back a lot of their statements about Gore, but they definitely seem more excited this time around.

I know a lot of people love S/T, but for me it was one of the biggest let down of my life, after waiting so long for the album. I guess I overhyped it and I ended up liking it, but I very rarely go back to it.
S/T is my most listened to album behind ATF.
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 19, 2020, 09:53 PM
It seemed more like he was playing it off as a joke during the sessions, and I think he said something to that tone during an interview or two... could have just been a consequence of the darker days that were ahead.
Well, Stef did mention some members of the band disliking certain older albums while explaining his comment on Gore.
What time did we get the street carp announcement? wondering if we'll get anything else today, 11pm here though :(
S/T > WP for me.

7PM EDT. It's currently 6PM EDT.
Adrenaline > everything else (fight me)
Abe goes so hard and its the only album that can scratch that certain itch. The others have similarities with another album in the discog that they can scratch eachothers itches
I consider Self Titled to be my favorite album, but not their best... if that makes sense. Technically I think WP is their best.

I've said it recently, the main riff of Hexagram is my favorite piece of work by Stephen. Maybe after Pink Maggit.
I'm fine if this thread drifts to a self-titled discussion 8)

Thank you Mr. Lungs
S/T has some of my all time favorites on it. Hexagram, Minerva, Deathblow, When Girls Telephone Boys, and Anniversary Of An Uninteresting Event are all mandatory rotation for me whenever listening to Deftones. Honestly, that performance of Anniversary at the Chi benefit show may be my favorite Deftones performance
Needles and Pins at 1:36 my favorite Steph riff when chino starts screaming. Didn't Steph play bass during this song?
Chino's vocals on Moana are sublime. Second only to Lovers IMO. He really perfected the ethereal haunting melodies on those songs.

Honestly I would take that over Eros, haha.
Lovers is so good. My favorite track from that album (or album sessions, in this case, although it was originally the title track).
Where do y'all think Lovers would sit in the track listing? Like, between which songs?
I'm thinking before Bloody Cape.
Still never understood why Lovers was cut, it fucking slaps.
Here's to B Sides and Rarities 2, man I really hope we get that after Blk Stallion and (a big maybe) Eros EP. Easy money for the band to just whack that out and huge pay off for fans.
Lovers, Teething, Crest, Can't Even Breathe, Jealous guy, Boy's Republic plus probably a fair few more that i cant think of off the top of my head
S/T is also my fav album, undisputed. Funny thing is that I used to love S/T thanks to songs like Hexagram, WGTB and Bloody Cape, but while i still fucking adore them, it's tracks like Minerva, Battle-Axe, Deathblow and, yes, Anniversary Of... that makes me come back to hear it every day. Then we have WP and ATF, that I also play it religiously almost every day. The other LP I enjoy it once in a while,

Ive always had it as the last track after moana, simply because thats where it was when i torrented it way back when, was shocked when i bought the CD and it wasnt on there
Buffalo Finger of Death is my favorite b- side I hope it's on Eros or we can some day hear the finished track with Chino.
Lovers has got to be the best Deftones b-side. It's absolutely criminal that it didn't end up on the album. In a weird way, the inclusion of just that song I think would bump S/T up a few notches in my favorite Deftones albums.

for me, Battle-Axe and Deathblow are super close to be amazing songs, but the lack of payoff on both song just ruins them for me. It seems like they are going no where. By payoff I'm thinking like the end of Change.
I know this is not a popular opinion.
And again, in my humble opinion, Lovers is a much stronger song than most of S/T.
I want to hear XO.

I don't entirely disagree. Good moments on both tracks (the pounding intro riff for Battle Axe is great, Frank's synth work on Deathblow as well), but I typically skip them when listening to S/T.
Remember CD release parties at record stores... hell, remember record stores? I can still remember the feeling walking into my local record store to pick up my pre-ordered copy of Self Titled and they were playing When Girls Telephone Boys at full volume. The hairs on my neck were standing up!
Battle Axe is absolutely amazing!
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 19, 2020, 10:16 PM
@wbasmith Chino went on record to say it was recorded too late to add it to the record, and mentioned it was his favorite cut from the S/T sessions
Ahh shame :(
Still praying for it on a 2nd B Sides and Rarities. Diamonds in the rough album or something
Oh shit they did??! That's awesome.

Battle Axe and Deathblow are better without those sort of 'pay-offs'. It would spoil the tone of the songs otherwise. Depressing, moody tracks that aren't resolved in an obvious way, and leave that tension hanging. It's artistically the best thing to do, although I understand why it puts some people off.
And don't ban me, but Hexagram, I feel everything musically in this song is amazing and the verses vocals are great, but goddamnit, whatever chino is doing on the chorus is dumb.

Does anyone else remember an interview with Abe, and I think it was Frank too... they briefly mentioned Lovers and refer to it as "Brian Dennehy", and Abe gives a shout out to sharinglungs?
Wasn't Lovers internally called Kevin Sorbo?
I remember the Brian Dennehy thing! I thought Lovers was an awesome name.
and yes, at first S/T was not my favorite but of course that changed.

We should rename it to "The album title of which we know but shall not speak of"... now with added dots
On S/T: it's a "trance" album to me. Songs like Battle-Axe are all about the hypnotic texture, as opposed to the structure (although I don't think the structure on any of the songs are outright bad). It's kind of an album to get lost in.
^
Yep
I also had some reservations about self titled when it was released. After white pony I didn't know what to expect. WP was an album you could put them at a party and everyone would be like "hell yeah". Self titled, being such a dark record, was not something a lot of people wanted to listen to a lot. I don't remember exactly but it only took me a few weeks to come around to it and of course now I adore it. Also I remember thinking artwork was kind of gimmicky, or too obvious or something. Deftones were still kind of being thrown around with other Nu metal bands and the cover kind of reinforced that image as well. My opinion is completely different these days but that's how I felt at the time.
I would probably put Lovers in the third spot. The fade out at the end of Needles and Pins paired with the fade in on Lovers works pretty well.

Hmm, I understand your opinion, but for me the lack of "payoff" is intentional.
For example, I feel like Change is created as some sort of " finally venting it's emotions" (I'm not saying this from a lyric perspective or meaning behind it). From the slow and soothing intro / first verse to the "chaotic" chorus and then goes back to a more calmer-but-almost-losing-it-again second verse, and then you have the banging ending, it sounds like a slow build up thriller where you need something BIG to end it.
Deathblow and Battle Axe are the complete opposite for me: they're depressive as fuck, almost like it's build for a introspective destruction. For me, the "payoff" are those "chaotic" parts(usually before the song ends) and then ending with more somber and depressive notes, meaning a more "dark" conclusion to it's meaning. The same thing happens with Mascara, for example.
But hell, I'm a depressive as fuck motherfucker, just wanted to share my thoughts about this with y'all. :D
I've heard Minerva labeled as shoegaze before, can't recall where tho

with only 10 tracks(their usual is 11), i really hope they release at least 1 b-side. the odds aren't good though, the last one we got was lovers, in 2003. oh well. looks like sept 25th is the release date then? that'll keep it from being a full year longer than SNW to DE release(the old longest wait between records). by like 2 weeks. i like pointless stats

Inevitably the wait between each album will only get longer. Look at every bands discog ever. Most slow down greatly with age. Maiden, The Cure, Tool, Slipknot, ACDC the list goes on.
Only few i can think of who've remained pretty consistent and are 20 years or older are Korn. Deftones honestly are one of the better ones
I wonder why they never released Crest.

this would actually be a great time for them to release another record right around this time next year(if they get to tour at all in 2021). no shows coming up, they could surprise us with their fastest release ever, 1 year. doubt they will, but with no shows allowed tyranny, this would be the time to get creative and do another album quick
The enhanced cd thing freaked me the hell out the first time. I had never heard of it before. When I slipped it into the computer to burn a cd it caught me off guard, thought I had a damn virus or something, haha! But yeah, never beat the game.

Let's get back to unsubstantiated claims and theories. It's fun. Also let me say I don't believe everything everyone says on the internet, especially in regards to stuff like this. 99% of comments and other shit like this is false. But let's just entertain it for a minute. For every 100 idiots that "leak" fake info, there's usually one or two that are right but no one believes. Maybe this guy is the 1%
So, thatdeftkid-the user that was in here telling us the cover art is not eyes and that the singles are coming Friday and another on 9/4. He posted on reddit yesterday stating the same thing. Someone asked for his "sources". He simply replied "It's obvious lol". It's not obvious, obviously. Friends with band? Record label? Could be anything.
He also made a thread titled 'Album ranking B4 Georg is dropped'. WTF is Georg?
Finally, he replied to a comment about the website updating. "Chances are they'll release Black Stallion with the new album like they did 'The Studio Album Collection' with Gore."
Looking through his post history, almost all of it is related to Car Wraps. Dozens of posts in the Car Wraps reddit. Looks like that is his profession actually. It could be a side gig/hobby, but it's unlikely he works with the band or the label if he is so into the wraps. Who knows though.
My point is, he didn't make the account simply to be a Deftones troll. He seems to generally use it to discuss his profession. Again, I know people lie on the internet all the time. But he has nothing to gain from lying. He says everything in a matter of fact way too. He doesn't really give two shits if anyone believes him. a single on Friday and again on 9/4 is a reasonable guess anyone could make. The artwork not being eyes is also a reasonable guess. But hey, who knows? I don't believe in much. I'm not religious or spiritual. As I get older I generally think people are selfish and terrible. I really want to believe this guy. We will all know soon enough. I'm gonna remember this comment and qoute it when it all turns out to be true. You know, for my big internet points.
EDIT-I don't think Black Stallion will release alongside the new album. He did not state it as fact either. Just a guess on his part. I just don't see that happening for a myriad of reasons. But the singles and details about the artwork? Seems plausible.

Finally, he replied to a comment about the website updating. "Chances are they'll release Black Stallion with the new album like they did 'The Studio Album Collection' with Gore."
Looking through his post history, almost all of it is related to Car Wraps. Dozens of posts in the Car Wraps reddit. Looks like that is his profession actually. It could be a side gig/hobby, but it's unlikely he works with the band or the label if he is so into the wraps. Who knows though.
My point is, he didn't make the account simply to be a Deftones troll. He seems to generally use it to discuss his profession. Again, I know people lie on the internet all the time. But he has nothing to gain from lying. He says everything in a matter of fact way too. He doesn't really give two shits if anyone believes him. a single on Friday and again on 9/4 is a reasonable guess anyone could make. The artwork not being eyes is also a reasonable guess. But hey, who knows? I don't believe in much. I'm not religious or spiritual. As I get older I generally think people are selfish and terrible. I really want to believe this guy. We will all know soon enough. I'm gonna remember this comment and qoute it when it all turns out to be true. You know, for my big internet points.
EDIT-I don't think Black Stallion will release alongside the new album. He did not state it as fact either. Just a guess on his part. I just don't see that happening for a myriad of reasons. But the singles and details about the artwork? Seems plausible.

I'm absolutely willing to be proven wrong - but why would they not be eyes, when they're clearly eyes?
Also, I agree that Black Stallion won't drop at the same time. The new album will need room for release, especially without touring.
How Can The Album Be Real If The Eyes Aren't Real???
It wouldn't be too crazy to assume a single this Friday, but I wouldn't buy that two singles are coming out when the album is close to coming out already.

tokyodrifter's first post here was a clip of an Eros song so he's legit. Can't say the same for this other guy, although he's probably right about Friday (which is kind of obvious at this point).

How Can The Album Be Real If The Eyes Aren't Real???
Maybe that's the entire point........to be misleading. Some sort of illusion maybe, IDK. They've been cryptic with this entire rollout though. I know it's a stretch to think there is more to this than meets the eye (SEE what I did there) but with everything else being so mysterious I think it's possible. Not likely, just possible.
I'm surely entirely wrong. But it's just fun to wonder. Maybe it's because I have two daughters. I've always encouraged them to embrace life and enjoy all the little moments as much as you can. Use your imagination, be creative. Be kind to everyone, no matter how they treat you. sure, I've also taught them that trust must be earned. Don't be gullible and get taken advantage of.
For those of you that have children, you probably understand my perspective a little better. It's like.......my kids are 13 and 17. Until a few years ago, we straight up refused to tell them Santa wasn't real. Why? Because it was *fun*. They've known Santa isn't real for a long time. My youngest knew it when she was like 7 lol. But they still cherish those memories of Christmas Eve. One night a deer walked in our yard, through the snow, on Christmas Eve and I recorded it. I told them I had a video of a reindeer. They knew it was fake, but I played the part so well. They have told me it's one of their best holiday memories. Well, new Deftones albums are my Christmas. Always have been and always will be.
You need to be a bit cynical these days, especially online. But don't let it detract from your enjoyment of life :D

This is a long explanation, so bear with me:
Deftones have been rolling out this viral marketing campaign that includes a cryptic image comprised of dots on their website. It fades into view after you sign up for the mailing list, and every day the image slowly changes. They've also been using Spotify's animated Canvas feature on key songs whose first letters spell out the-album-which-shall-not-be-named. So far, a bunch of us have been working on trying to decrypt the meaning behind the dot patterns, and after a ton of combined effort between SharingLungs, the DeftonesLive community, and the reddit community at r/deftones, we determined that the dots actually make up a complicated matrix that produces a morse code sequence. When decoded, it translates to "Don't smell your own farts." If you take the numerical value of each letter, add them all together, and then square it, you get the number 18006992837, which is actually the phone number 1-800-69-WAVES. If you call the number, there's a muffled recording of seagulls and dolphins yelling the phrase "TWO MORE HOURS."

"Georg" is the first name of the physicist whose surname gave the name of the units of resistance...so a cryptic way to refer to the speculated album title of the upcoming album.
I know that sentence is a bit convoluted, but as we can't say the possible album name it's a bit difficult for it not to be!!
^^^^^ That makes sense. I hope everything he said turns out to be right. Unlikely though. A single dropping Friday is about the only thing I am certain of.

Likely today or tomorrow. I can't see the momentum of
the last week pausing now.
My wager........ official announcement of album title today, probably with final cover art. Friday should be first single. Preorder packages any day too I'd imagine. I mean we are 37 days away from release........
Which now that I think about it, I wonder if there's going to be limited availability on the physical stuff because of covid. 37 days to gauge interest and gather numbers from pre-orders, and then ordering an appropriate amount of the merch from the manufacturers would be difficult during normal times, let alone during a pandemic. Then again these companies know what they are doing. They likely have a pretty decent idea how much physical stuff they would sell and have acted accordingly.
More art today and single tomorrow.

Seriously though, cover art could be just the single artwork. That'd explain the lyrics on the billboard.
Hmmm. It's possible but the billboard has what seems to be the album release date and I think it's been a lot of work just for single artwork so I'm pretty sure it's for the album.

Stef's clearly engaged with this album which only means good things.
Would have been amazing to have had the album released now but understand why that's not case and he confirms 25th September as the date.
Alright ladies and gents. I've gotta fever... and the only cure...
Is a single drop from the 'tones
This feels like a BIG album for the band - lots of enthusiasm and this lead up to the announcement has been hugely fun and really well presented.
Obviously looking forward to the new music but I'm particularly looking forward to hearing how it's been mixed and so forth, especially after Gore's issues. I think having Terry at the helm has been really important for the guys and he's going to bring what only he can.

It's coming within hours now. We're so close. Homestretch boys!
It's come around at a good time for them. Nothing felt right with Gore or the media / hype, and for me it didn't really deliver. This album feels different, they have had time to fine tune things, all get back on the same page, work with Terry Date again
This just feels different, I just hope it delivers
I wonder if they're done with the cryptic clues element of the campaign or if there's a little more to come. Would be nice if there was one final puzzle to solve which leads to the full reveal/single. Otherwise, I guess the website's next update will be the reveal of album title, tracklist and pre-order links etc.
This thread is about to blow up
What a great day.

Wtf have I missed!!!!
How are people hearing this, is it a leak?
I'm just gonna leave my 2 cents. Riff and instrumentals: pretty fcking good, vocal melody: just OK, but pretty good, mixing: really good, way better than Gore. T. Date did a good job.
Sorry Ves if we're not allowed to comment on that, pls don't ban me.
People in Deftones fb groups are fkn rabid about this.
I can't believe it leaked like what must be hours before the official release.
I am green with envy
Vesanic I am sorry I broke the news on here. I had absolutely nothing to do with the leak I just wanted to get our community talking about it
👍
(https://i.imgur.com/z34px2M.jpg)
So can we discuss the new single here?
Yea as long as you dont wave it in peoples faces.
To me it Reminds me a bit of S/T, the last record they made with Date as producer. I think its the echo sound he uses for Chino, it just reminds me of S/T. Pretty cool! Drums and guitar are awesome. Its not too experimental - its the first single of course - but I like the sound a lot!
Quote from: Vesanic on Aug 20, 2020, 12:03 PM
Wait, it's on Spotify?
I guess so - it's Friday in New Zealand. So Ohms, the single, has officially been released, in that territory at least
Can't see anything yet... Is it up on their official channels yet?
It's already been released on Spotify for Australian and Kiwi users.
Yeah honestly this leak is nothing suspicious. It's what happens in the age of streaming services when something's out the next day. Record company will know this was coming.
Just in case anyone doesn't know - I'm pretty sure it'll be on Spotify in countries where it's already Friday.

Yep, completely forgot about Australia and NZ being several hours ahead. Thursday is commonly referred to as Leak Day because of this.

A random question from a kinda new fan (2013 - present). Were you guys surprised when they announced KNY only 2 years after Diamond Eyes? How did you feel? I'm asking because I've wondered about the 10th record... Would be amazing if it comes out in 2023 spring, you know, 35th Deftones birthday.
Was back in kny days. Can't even remember what email I used as my login.
Anyway. I am beyond excited.
Terry Date makes me happy happy play play

The lyrics and overall flow of the track is similar to KYN but the production does have the weight and layers of S T
New single has some Foo Fighters, Ovlov type sound mixed with native american grooves.
Any other animal, mammal or bird sounds going on? Like maybe a parrot or dolphin?
i knew i would like new stuff no matter what it is but i'm always surprised in what ways it's good.
the big intro/outro riffs are like... Country Deftones lol. in the best way
lots of little things that you could trace back to older stuff, but really sounds refreshing and new to me
if there was a song to get new fans into them, this would be my recommendation.
Stef really does some work in this song. That guitar tone though.... so good
I can see this being a song they would play live. Great song for a concert
I do get some s/t and Gore vibes from it personally. It's just so refreshing.
Tracklist is on Apple Music NZ
every title i've seen is now confirmed. Only one song title I haven't seen.
Only one song with the Explicit label.
How progressive is it? Weird intros/outros, solos, odd time signatures, unorthodox structure?
It reminds me to CKY "an answer can be found"album production style.I love it.

Definitely feel you with the Native American grooves. Strange but true! But yes. To me his voice sounds just like it does on some of those S/T songs. Those sort of floating, wispy vocals if that makes sense. Kinda like on Knife Prty. Which I know isn't on S/T but still.
ICYMI: Track listing is live on Apple Music
Ohms is the closing track. Cover looks really cool actually.
Country deftones, cky production,
interesting...
Wow.. not many bands release the closing track as the first single... lol.. I can't wait to see what else they have in store as singles if thats the case.

Not particularly progressive although there's no real conventional structure (no clear verse/chorus really) and it goes to 7/8 for the last bit of it.

So they're 9/9 on killer closers then, okay cool
Looking forward to everyone's reaction to Radiant City

It seems to be happening more, recently. Code Orange did it with their new album and Sufjan Stevens released the closing track on his upcoming album last month.
Not generally a big fan of bands/artists doing that, although this song definitely fits as a single.
Digging these track names for sure. Cover art looks cool on Itunes
Cool to see more people notice the S/T style vocal production. Overal sound/structure is def. more KNY style yes.
Even more hyped for the record now, cant wait.
Someone post the tracklist, I can't see it on Apple
