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

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

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

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

Well that means he's had the lyrics written before coachella shows.. hopefully we get it before years end..

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

It's also labeled "Def Groove" in the video.

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

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

I actually needed to hear this. Been trying to rationalize all night why they didn't play a new track. This makes so much sense. Thanks for the insightful thoughts.
The show intro is from the new album. I mean it had to be, right?
I would say, how can they perform a new track if they haven't tracked anything yet?
Quote from: Vesanic on Nov 03, 2024, 09:02 AMThe show intro is from the new album. I mean it had to be, right?

I do not make music and not sure exactly that "tracking" is. I did Google it though. Me, and I imagine other people (though just speaking for myself) have been under the impression the album just needed vocals, but other than that it was done. Many interviews from the band stating as much. If you are someone "in the know" and are certain nothing has been tracked yet then that is quite a bummer. But, patience is a virtue and I will continue to wait as I know it will be worth it in the end ;)
Quote from: aurdreyen on Nov 03, 2024, 04:38 PMAt this point a new album is but a conspiracy theory.
This.
Take this with a big grain of salt because I'm going off reddit and theprp comments but I'm seeing some murmurings it will be out in March (which makes some sense, I guess, as the tour kicks off in late Feb). A person on reddit also said they talked with a band member at DDLD (didn't say which one) and that they were adding "finishing touches and mixing" and had also recently written a couple additional songs.
Seems plausible. The wait is worth it for more material. Missing the 2020 days of random snippets leaking through Chino's mixlr lol I just need something to keep me going.
I spoke to Chino on character.ai today and asked when the album would come out. He said it would come out in early 2025 and the album would be called "Moon". He also gave the track titles, one of which would be called «stay».
https://character.ai/chat/5n7obGFHp39RdDe8WmOv1GbCr74RRXs0cTsdQPIBjoE
Well, can't be any less credible than reddit comments.

Yeah, I just wanna see the cover art or a tracklist.
God I hope we get bonus tracks or covers on this album 😩
Whoa managed to get into my old account finally. Where are you, @tokyodrifter ?
We need that mf rumors back!
some news????
I think it's safe to say 2024 is out. Hopefully things will heat up early next year.
Probably misguided but I'm still holding out hope for a teaser or single this month.
man, this place is still very much alive.. love it.

Velvet Hammer catering a gathering with Deftones? Sounds like the albums done/turned in!

I saw that but also saw him post that his mom passed (condolences, Lance) and thought the team maybe sent him catering.
Also, kitesvera did say Chino told him Lance is on the album. Seems Lance and Fred are pretty much full-time members now.
Quote from: Inkblades on Jan 07, 2025, 01:14 AMSeems Lance and Fred are pretty much full-time members now.
I'm sure we can look forward to the two of them having an acrimonious departure in about a decade.
For real though, they've been great.
Seems like this should be a first half of the year release but I usually try not to predict Deftones album dates.
two... more... hours...
And then two more two more hours...
I know the band doesn't owe us anything, but I feel they've been unusually quiet with this one
Because it feels like a Q1/2 release, I'm trying to remember when the Gore hype train started. I think it was late January that the rumours and teases began to appear.
It was start of July 2020 we started getting some info on Ohms ahead of a late September release, so like 3.5 months before it dropped.
Honestly was a fun time with random snippets getting leaked by Chino on Mixlr lol

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

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

This is all just pure copium at this point in time.
Lol we're all fishing for signs.

Nah, I would think it'd be in the hands of the record label at this point.

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

I dunno, personally i'd find it hard to believe that the label would let them go on a full on tour before finalizing the album. Maybe they won't announce anything by the end of the month, but hopefully they give us some info around the tour dates.. they must be chomping at the bit to play some new shit live... right? They love debuting new songs live.
Two more fucking hours
Maybe the real new album is the friends we made along the way
Ves is back! Truly a new album cycle has upon us to bring us all back together again!
I remember messaging Ves about Chino playing Ohms material on Mixlr about two or three months before it was announced. Kinda unfair that we don't even have that hint now.
I feel like all of their albums have leaked early, maybe they're trying to get things right this time
Honestly though I'm kinda surprised they're still creating stuff, there was a period of time I thought for sure Ohms was the last record. I couldn't imagine what Chino would write about?

To be honest I considered the same thing - it didn't really feel like he was hitting on anything new lyrically on Ohms. But that's okay, as long as he comes up with some cool, unique melodies (which he usually does), then we good.
Doing some investigating... Since January 2016, they've only ever not posted in January twice, in 2017 and 2018, every other year, they've posted in January.
Gore cover art teasers started January 27th 2016.
Just an observation, obviously they'll tease it whenever they feel like it, but copium wants me to believe it's "soon".
More copium here but here's how it could potentially play out:
Announcement and single in the next few weeks - album in late Feb or March.
Announcement and single when the tour kicks off - album in late March or April.
If that doesn't happen, we're not getting it until the end of spring or summer. Then the next bet is them live debuting a song or two.
The only thing we know for sure is if rumors pops their head in, we know it's coming soon.

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

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

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

I thought this would be the case. There's no way they'd go on a ~year long tour without releasing a completed album.
Spring 2026, boys
If that's true then it correlates with the earlier rumour that they've gone and written more songs since the last update.
Yeah, I'm assuming they've amassed a lot of material at this point. I know roughly eleven songs is the Deftones tradition and who knows what will make the final cut, but I'd love a Crosses type of situation where we get like twenty new songs over the course of a year or two. Or if that's overshooting it lol, at least a couple b-sides.

Well I got nothing, so here's a dog pranking a rooster
https://youtube.com/shorts/IDLCVwaGfd8?si=Y0WQbGHzxRaRxYup
I'm calling BS on any supposed "Rumors" or pretend insiders. No way the label is letting them go on a full tour and they're still in the studio. No chance in hell.
The only legit info we have is:
April 2024 Chino said they have a whole album recorded, and he needed to record vocals. He emphasised they weren't in a rush.
May 2024 Chino was photographed in the studio with the producer.
December 2024 Chino's wife said Chino was working on "important album business".
I'm sort of speechless at the fact they are still making music at this point. It's been what, 35+ years since Stephen Carpenter put this band together and they're still at it doing something that once felt right to them. Not saying that I was pleased with the way they did things over time but maybe the fact they're not saying anything is good (for them)

Their silence does add to the mystique, even if its often maddening.
I recall most of their album tracklists usually being revealed in advance by the press, but it would be really unique if the opposite happened. Imagine them just giving us some cryptic teasers and a single, but no tracklist reveal until the album drops. I think that type of rollout would really fit this new Gen Z-influenced social media era we live in.
A cryptic teaser and a single would be cool.
Nowadays we got 3 to 5 singles drop before the album release but I dont see them doing that.
I have an update, not sure if i can really post it, so i'll just say this. Were in the final stretch here fellas...

You could post it and remove it after a short while if need be.
Or message those of us who have, say, over 1150 posts? ;)

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

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

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

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

Didn't mean it like that, maybe it's good for them as a collective of people. All opinions and judgement aside I don't think with what happened with Sergio I'd want to be loud and proud about the record he was probably going to be a part of if it hadn't been for that, I'm sure they had different opinions about it and maybe they're choosing to keep it as a closed can of worms. Sort of enjoying the ride and trying to keep it healthy in a sense.
I'm still sad about the whole Sergio incident... I was watching the beauty school video this morning and got sentimental about the whole thing. He really did give life to the band when they needed it the most. That aside I'm hoping this new record can make me appreciate what the new members bring to the table.

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

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

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

I'd love them to just drop an album by suprise, never going to happen though

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

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

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

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

Single Friday so everyone can be double hype for when they debut the lead single live on the 25th.
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 15, 2025, 05:04 AMI'll say it again, Adrenaline with time became their best album to me. In fact you can hear bits of it in all their albums. I wonder if this new one will capture some of that
stop drinking vesanic
I hope that their new album is going to embrace some of the vibes off of Gore. I would like to hear some more angular riffs like in Geometric Headdress or that wall of sound like in Prayers/Triangles.
Their UK publicist, emizzlevandizzle on Instagram just posted that she's in Los Angeles.. that's gotta mean something right?
Don't overthink
Just wait ;)
Over the past 27 years, I have learned to just be patient. This is the longest wait between albums ever, but they are older. Been through a lineup change too. I've accepted it will happen when the time is right. My only real hope/wish is a single before the tour. Seems really odd to me to be sitting on a complete album and do a North American Tour with sold out arenas but not even play one track from it? I don't think in 2025, they would want people's first exposure to new material being a live recording for a cellphone. My fear is that they simply do not play or release a single during this tour. If goes down that way though, so be it. As long as the band has fun and they are confident in their plan and the new material....I just need to be patient and trust!
Someone on Reddit claims to have seen chino in LA today, their uk PR person is in LA. Most likely the Warner offices are also in LA. I don't think it's a coincidence.
They rehearse in Sacramento, in "The spot" so it can't be rehearsals.
Sacto to LA is almost a 6 hour drive without accounting for traffic
And chinos wife is hanging out with the president of RSE group, who's an artist manager...
Let the speculation begin lol
I'm pretty sure they have a rehearsal space in Burbank. But that's also where Warner Bros is, so they are likely taking care of album business as well.
Must be near the end game now if they're flying PR team from UK to LA.
Quote from: RaptureWS on Apr 23, 2024, 12:40 AMAlso, my prediction is March 2025 release. I'd love to be wrong on that though.
Seems like this guy was right!
Talking about releases I think a single comes out around 2 months before the release so I doubt it is March. For example Whitechapel released new singles last month and the album is coming March 25. Another good example is that Machine Head is dropping new single tomorrow and their new album is coming out in April. Hopefully I hope a single it is coming March and release date May? We can only hope while we cross the fingers in our hands and feet.
Ohms released a month before the album dropped
I have no patience now for expectation — wow — fuck this shit...give me the album.

What do you think updating the mailing list means? I'm just curious to hear your thoughts, I don't wanna assume anything but i'm so pumped! Lol

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

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

A ledditor's mentionning a listening party should happen in LA...
Just curious, anyone here attending the US tour?

I will be going to the Chicago concert in late March. Hopefully a new single should be released by that point

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

Should?
The reddit post in question:
https://www.reddit.com/r/deftones/comments/1it6u8y/ahem/
Tokyo was here again 20 minutes ago..
I bet they're having a good laugh at all of our speculation and posts about the new album
He's already visited several times today. He can't even say hello to us :'(
Man we're at peak pre album hype now lol. "Someone on sharinglungs said this." "Someone on Reddit said that."
Hey @tokyodrifter...describe the new album in one word.

I'll be at 3, Columbus, Philly and DC
Quote from: Vesanic on Feb 19, 2025, 04:19 PMJust curious, anyone here attending the US tour?
Philly and Newark. I'm simply amazed there is a possibility of no new music before or during this tour. I really hope something happens soon.
Atlanta on the 18th. As unlikely as it is for them to crowd test new material on an arena tour, that's the glimmer of hope I'm holding.
Nonetheless, I'm getting flashbacks to Ohms-era where everyone was in COVID lock-down doing detective work on each Instagram post.
Take any artist with a complete new album and an arena tour at the corner... It would make no fucking sense for them to not release it and tour it out, let alone just a single.
And I'm not even rooting for it. It's just a golden opportunity. People here saying they're unlikely to debut material live but honestly they might as well.
They've done it plenty of times in the past. It would make no sense to not play a new song live while on tour, with your new album coming out soon
Was Doomed User the last song to debut live before the single was released?
^ Yup. It's possible they would have debuted Ohms and Genesis live if COVID hadn't happened.

I also remember they plays rocket skates live rosemary and poltergeist when it was still called roller derby.
They played Rosemary a lot in 2012 before Koi dropped and it didn't even end up being a single.

Y'all need to stop with the @ btw. This isn't Twitter ;D
Let's keep the fingers crossed for a fan recording of the first show, hopefully we get a new song
Tokyo Drifter: "You snap your fingers, and you think I'll respond!"
It's understandable if tokyo doesn't respond to us. After all, my guy will be headlining a tour next week, so a lot on his plate.
Where's rumors, though?
I know who Rumors is though I wouldn't give it away. Let's just say I don't know that he'd have info for this.. who knows though
It would be rad if it was called "Future Heavy"

really?! when I got the notification I really thought "this is it" but no 😔 just tour reminder, not a single hint :'(
Hello I am new here, I've been a fan of Deftones for 2 years now, I can basically play their whole discography on guitar including 8 strings, And im super excited for their 10th album, i feel like its gonna have a very heavy gritty tone on songs and very echoy distant type feel on other songs remanent of entombed, im pretty sure ive heard a thing where stef went all out, im not sure where, but anyways, im excited and cant wait, thank you for having me here (S/T and SNW are my fav)
I'm really hoping there's at least some evolution of their sound. I don't want 'just another Deftones record' again.
What does that even mean?
Quote from: nicklav on Feb 21, 2025, 01:15 AMWhat does that even mean?
?
As in, they try something new and take some risks.
That's what crosses and team sleep is for. Lucky you shouldn't have been on self titled; pink cellphone on snw. Keep it to standard stuff they always do. It's what they're good at
No two albums sound remotely the same. Evolution is sort of what they do.
November 2025.
No.
Yes.
Lol, bye. See you in fall, peeps
*Inkblades cameo on page 16*
Considering Chino's been giving guitar duties to Lance Jackman and Shaun Lopez live, I wonder if this translates to more Steph-centric songwriting on the new record.
His live vocals are noticeably better since this change, so it would be interesting if they pursued this in the studio.
We'll see. Steph has said he's a rhythm guitarist instead of a lead, so maybe he focuses on the riffs and Lance will add flourishes? I will say, the little leads Chino did on KNY (Swerve City and Goon Squad bridges, the ending of Gauze) are actually really fucking cool...wouldn't mind some more stuff like that, whether its from Chino or Lance.
Don't bands usually do interviews during tours? Like sometimes they go to local radio stations etc. Maybe if they don't play new music they at least do some interviews that shed light on what's up. Here is to hoping!

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

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

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

If you have any extra seconds worth from those clips, I'd love to hear them! I only have crappy screen recordings from before the links died.

Yessir.
Plus two other clips around 30-50 seconds, based on what I got. My quality isn't great, so maybe people have better copies-- or if someone was there for the live Mixlr and recorded more.
I've never believed that recording was Deftones. Never seen any evidence that Chino went back to Mixlr after he deleted his account in 2022.
last notifications I got for mixlr was back in 2022.
The recording Ves posted sounds was too far in production to be new album stuff if it was posted in 2022.
It wasn't Deftones, I remember finding on YouTube the album it actually came from though I can't remember the name
FYI the reddit post about the 'listening party' was removed

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

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

But kitesvera claims the album was only sequenced and in the mixing stage about 3 weeks ago.

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

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

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

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

So, this was back in december 2024. We must be close... Right? Righhhhtttt?!!
I hope nothing has changed since December. The eternal pessimist in me hates that "during the tour" is paraphrased.
Do bands ever drop new albums in the middle of tours? And I think about the merch....like, will one day if the album drops the merch booth suddenly has a new selection of stuff based on album artwork? I can't travel due to health issues and am not able to go to concerts anymore, so I genuinely have no idea if it's "normal" for albums to be dropped during a tour. Imagine if he said this in December, and the November "rumor" ends up being right. Deftones will have out Deftoned themselves.
On the flipside, this interview was done in December but just released today. Very calculated. I'm gonna bong rip some copium.
Feels not optimal to release an album mid-tour, but if we get the album so be it.
My theory now is maybe they have a general set list in mind, with one or two new songs in the rotation. Maybe they play the new songs starting tomorrow, and just release singles (and the album proper?) mid tour.
Maybe the merch for the new album will start being sold tomorrow too?
Idk how likely that is, though.
Between their break in April - June is my guess for album release.
I agree, what are the odds they actually play new music during some of their shows?
Quote from: gavinkfox on Feb 25, 2025, 02:00 AMI agree, what are the odds they actually play new music during some of their shows?
I'd say pretty high. They've done it lots of times before. They only time they didn't in recent times was Ohms, but they didnt tour til after the album was out.

An EP would rule. Or if they have b-sides as has been rumored, do a two-song drop like Crosses did with Initiation/Protection to whet the appetite.

Same age I was when I got into the band. Now pushing 40 lol. Hope you get to attend a show and welcome to our small community
Wonder if Stef went up to a 10 string guitar this go around
I predict a bright orange 10 string, with a floyd rose, was heavily used on this new record
He barely used the 9 last time. Just one track I think. I expect it'll be mostly/entirely 8 again. He did say he'd been using the same tuning as KNY on this record.

Hey atleast I can play that shit, amazingly. I got an 8 string last year for Christmas, and man I love it

Yeah i started listening back in 2023, but im not stuck on ATF like other kids my age, I've listened through every album over and over, and still can't get enough, and one day I will, thank you!

Keep your peepers on, I remember before SNW was released they had the cover art as their backdrop. Maybe they'll drop some Easter eggs.

Talking about the setlist is perfectly fine. In fact sharinglungs is very rarely active so it's kind of encouraged.
There's always the spoiler option in messages IF one so wishes to try to keep it a surprise..
Melancholy little synth interlude played right before the encore. Possibly something new?
Mostly all singles tonight btw. I guess that's how arena bands do, but it also kind of feels like they are trying to hint something. Like a new single is coming.

Man that is one safe boring ass set list. Meanwhile the mars Volta just playing all new shit :-\
Genuinely like, NO surprises except maybe Feiticeira? And honestly I think it should be their staple opening track, Beyond that, uber predictable. Oh well. It is an arena tour,,,,
How are they holding up playing an arena? I remember people who saw them on the ST tour saying they weren't fit for it

That's kind of what I meant the other day, it wouldn't make sense to not release something before the tour, but Deftones never make sense
I guess that interlude or whatever is indeed a hint
I think it was a hint too.
Yeah that's actually wild to go on an arena tour during this resurgence they've been experiencing and over 4 years since the last album with a new one apparently nearly done and not play anything new lol

Hopefully. They mixed it up on the 2022 tour I believe and also their back catalogue is too deep for them not to. But at the same time, I dunno, their newfound popularity throws a lot of things into question - do they feel they have to play to the new fans, like as an introduction course or something? Truly never know with them.
Quote from: Inkblades on Feb 26, 2025, 07:03 AMTruly never know with them.
It does make sense however to play a lot of a singles now that they haven't released new music. I suppose they were more daring in the past but playing an arena tour is already a new challenge in their career
i watched the whole live stream while playing call of duty with my dad and uncle, i got so excited and i was told to shut up
:'(
Goddamn, what a show. They had a ton of energy and the crowd was giving it right back. Lots of young people there and the place was sold out from what I could see.
Saw them countless time in France. Sometimes they play for two nights in a row. And then they usually completely change their setlist for the second night. It was the case in 2017 for the two shows in Paris with dat Chongi asking on the second night who was there the evening before and telling us that the setlist was completely différent... and it was. It was rumored too for the 3 shows they were supposed to play at le Bataclan...
But when they only play one show, it's their typical setlist. Nothing new and mainstream audience friendly, which was to be expected when they are doing an Arena tour.
It will be more of the side show / smaller type venues where the setlist get's experimental. You have to factor in that they are probably playing for the first time for a lot of people who will be attending the arena gigs in the USA
Calling it now.. they're gonna have this rumored listening party next week some time on the weekend, single gets released beforehand - or even the album but unlikely - and they play the whole of it at the second LA gig (or at least a couple tracks obviously)
Though I still believe a spring/summer release would make the most sense but.. Deftones are gonna Deftones?
We'll be back after the break for more impressions

Yeah their set lists are easy to predict. But goddamn I didn't expect a singles tour. Truly the greatest hits lol
A sold out arena tour with a bunch of young tik tok fans, is not ideal for debuting new songs. Maybe towards the end of the tour but not now.
Any time is the perfect time to introduce fans to new songs... if it wasn't, touring musicians wouldn't exist.
Quote from: sharinglungs on Feb 26, 2025, 06:04 PMAny time is the perfect time to introduce fans to new songs... if it wasn't, touring musicians wouldn't exist.
I honestly believe they wont drop anything until the end of this US tour. Long year and booked up next year as well. They are not in any rush and smart money is that this will most likely be the last full length album. In another 4 years they will be like 55-60 years old.

You keep saying this. I have no reason to believe you, but for some reason I do. 2025 has been a big middle finger to my life so far. This would just be the rotten cherry on top. I *really* needed new Deftones sooner than later to get through whatever else is coming my way. I just need to let go and trust that God/Jesus/Allah/Brahma/Buddha/Karma/Universe has a plan and that Deftones in November is when I will need it most ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
The Sacramento show is our greatest chance they tease or announce something. Honestly, if not, we won't get news until May-June

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

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

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

Truly a new era for the band... Steph is rocking pants and Vans on stage.
It's sad how dead the forum is now, no news so i suppose it is what it is
Final hit of copium for me: Same established set March 5th, then new songs (maybe even NEW new songs) on March 6th.
Since it's the same venue two nights in a row

Chino's Mixlr account has been deleted since March 2022. I very much doubt they had anything recorded before he shut his account down. I have email notifications for his account, and the last one I got was March 6 2022.

That is not what I was expecting. from two different interviews Chino were just in, he stated that the are finishing up up the album soon as they can do it will be available before we know it, possibly before the US tour ends.

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

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

Exactly this. Not gonna happen soon.
Maybe April/May?? But I don't think so too. The ideal would be they drop a single before festival season... but again... this is deftones. That's why I believe we won't see anything til later this year probably next year.
Setlist will stay the same.
On the other hand what I'm hoping is that with this new release that is to come... setlist will be full of new songs (please let this be the case) ohms was completely ignored for the most part.
Chino said they wanted it out by the tour, obviously they planned on having something out by now, something changed. It's not far fetched to think they planned to include it in their set if they wanted the album out already. I'm still in the camp of an April-June announcement before the European tour.
For what it's worth, "during the tour" was more of the interviewer's comment..
What if they ran into the same problem they did with gore when it came to the mix and mastering and that's the reason why we haven't heard anything yet...?
I guess we'll see tonight if they switch up the setlist for night 2 in the same venue...
(X) doubt...
We're really getting desperate lol
Personally, the problem is not so much to wait around (it can be fun if done correctly), but that in this cycle there truly has been NO INFORMATION to have fun speculating about. Like... zero.
I mean, someone said the album has 11 tracks? And why is that user even trustworthy?
That's why it's now becoming just boring...
It's the longest gap with no new music. If course we're desperate. We're horny for the defmoans.......
I have already dreamed several times that there was a leak of info and singles and we all discussed it heatedly. And also a message from tokyo: tomorrow.
2 more months...
CONFIRMED:
Deftones - Goon Cave (LP)
October 2025
Tracks: 11
They just played Rosemary!!!!!
It's a different setlist
Quote from: Moana91 on Mar 07, 2025, 05:32 AMThey just played Rosemary!!!!!

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

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

I thought about it again, and honestly it makes sense. I've already said this but this arena tour is a big challenge for them. They probably wanted to make sure to do it right, and not make it more complicated by focusing on let alone playing new material.
The same could be said about the setlist. You're going to headline arenas around the country and play in front of all those people, of course you're gonna want to play your most popular tracks.
I let curiosity get the best of me and I watched the Sacramento concert on YouTube. It feels like being a Bulls fan watching them play the NBA finals in the 90s. I mean shit man, Stephen founded this band in that city and there he is at the end of the show at the biggest music venue in town throwing out a whole bunch of picks. That's like guitar hero stuff! That's also why I'm thinking they're not playing new stuff yet, and looking at the comments, they're not getting less criticism than before, they didn't want to add to the pressure. Even Lance is a Sacramento native I think, and there he is headlining arenas all of a sudden lol
Also I'm surprised there wasn't any discussion about the show interlude since it was first brought up. I don't even listen to Deftones anymore as surprising as it may seem, but that's about as 'new Deftones music' as it gets even though it may not be a full fledged song.

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

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

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

Fair enough but I noticed on the Sacramento vid when Chino started playing Change, he simply cut into the interlude which made me think "Yeah.. they're teasing something"
Quote from: Inkblades on Mar 13, 2025, 12:25 AMMaybe the album is called SNAKES?
Who knows man. For all we know it could be right there on the sheet and the thing is called Violet / Purple Cobra or some shit lol (note that I'm completely reaching)
I'm leaning on the album cover being just a snake, but a Medusa-themed cover would go hard as well. That seems thematically up Chino's alley.
They just posted the same image with the snake AGAIN on their Instagram story and on Twitter (X). That makes it feel even more suspicious
Sm1 on reddit posted the full photo of the snake. HOW DID THEY GET IT

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

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

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

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

But if it is it could be 2 things, album music thing, or just audio for a moment of relaxation

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

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

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

I would post the photos of what I saw on here but idk how too?!

Yeah this is as clear as it gets. Im sticking to my original theory but tbh with the way the right side of the logo is dark, they might hide some kinda message where you gotta combine this image with whatever will be on the right side. Nice edit btw

Where do you see this at? The only one I see has some maybe little bits of a lens flare effect, but I don't see anything that lights up the letters like that.
I wonder if tokyo could give us a hint since he's been so active these days ... ;)

Yeah, I dont wanna repeat what I said in my original post but it just looks like the insides of some animal. After the fact I looked up what a snake's mouth looks on google and it kinda looks similar but not really ...
Yeah lol but I agree it would make the most sense with what we know
I just love theorizing
I have been pretty doubtful of this being anything except different tour aesthetics, but you all are making me start to believe it could be album related. I mean.......that snake tongue logo is kinda all over the place. I'm no expert on tour promotions, but I don't think bands usually create random logos for tours. Especially one so simple but iconic looking. It feels like it has a purpose. Another animal themed aesthetic, especially a purple snake, is 100% a thing Deftones would do. It gets me pretty excited because I see colors in my mind when I hear music, especially Deftones. Almost always the song's "colors" match the album artwork.
Even if it turns out to be nothing, it is something for now and get to wonder what a white/light purple Deftones track might sound like :)
Ehh it could be all tour related if I'm being realistic. That being said if I've learned anything about Deftones it's that they love playing with contrasts. The snake here is no exception being a dangerous animal but almost alluring with its purple skin.
Edit: all things considered though, they're using 'Beware' for this promo post, so I guess something is indeed coming soon (except if it's really all for the tour but that'd admittedly be a whole lot of work for it)
Edit 2: No really it could be all for the tour. I can't fucking believe I almost got myself on the hook for this band again lol. I already said a spring/early summer release would make the most sense and we're practically there

You ruined the mood
Lol don't worry, I'm sure they'll have some other potential hint out in no time
The biggest thing for me is the snake tongue picture as the favicon on their website, this is a lot of work for a tour that's not happening for 5 months.
Yeah I'm not sure about that one

There's nothing else to post about anymore tbh, just waiting for more teasers. Only other thing that can be discussed is the snake icon in some of the images people with a VIP pass took with the band. Someone on reddit already pointed it out but its the same one as the favicon of the official website.
3 weeks left of the tour and no one in the meet and greet has asked them about the new album or new music.

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

I'm very doubtful they'd play new songs internationally, unless Lance has a sizeable writing contribution to the record such that it feels right for him to play the parts.
After the Sergio situation, that scenario is doubtful.
"Very soon" in Deftones speak means three months from now.

The conscious effort on their part to keep details under wraps is impressive.

Nothing special or important, but I quickly snooped around the official website via inspect element for any info and I found meta keywords for "New Album" and "New Music". This isn't for Ohms as its also a keyword, alongside Black Stallion and others.
I checked it 2-3 weeks ago and it didn't seem like the "New Album" was there.
Really? I mean you can check for yourself if you remember how the list looked back then, if they just added the "new album" on top.

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

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

I'm here if any of you need help.

I like the new thread title.
They deadass need to tell us something.
Maybe frank maddocks is working on a music video with thr edits.
Im think at thr end or near the end of this your they are gonna release something they HAVE TO.
If not late 2026 release
They don't need to tell us anything. This is just the way it is. One day you'll wake up to news and that will be that.

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

What makes this sader is im reading this while listening to anniversary of an uninteresting event
Honestly guys, it's not all bad all things considered. You got
- One minute of music (the interlude from live shows)
- Potential artwork (snake + snake tongue symbol + hidden art in the Deftones logo on IG)
- Hints from band members (Stef "It's an Ohms/KNY mix but also things you've never heard from us and I'm very excited", Abe "It's coming very soon" from during this tour, Chino "It's almost ready" from a few months back and "Old fans are gonna love it" from during this tour)
- Confirmation on reddit from about a month back that mastering was finished, meaning the record is probably ready at this point
- Other info leaks/rumors on the record and the release process on both here and reddit that were since then deleted, had-to-be-there kinda shit I guess
Don't get me wrong though, I fully sympathize with the frustration of not hearing from the band, I suppose that's just how they are and you can't do anything about it. To be perfectly honest though.. what happened to just waiting?
Keep in mind also and I've said this before, this is their first ever arena tour. If you're in a band, it's a super big deal and that's probably their focus right now. That's not say there's no chance they won't drop some kind of other info/hint while they're touring but I don't want to boost people's hopes in vain.

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

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

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

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

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

Don't get me wrong though, I fully sympathize with the frustration of not hearing from the band, I suppose that's just how they are and you can't do anything about it. To be perfectly honest though.. what happened to just waiting?
Keep in mind also and I've said this before, this is their first ever arena tour. If you're in a band, it's a super big deal and that's probably their focus right now. That's not say there's no chance they won't drop some kind of other info/hint while they're touring but I don't want to boost people's hopes in vain.
Do you have a link to that interlude?
No but when I watched the Sacramento vid I noticed they played this interlude through the PA before the encore. Chino seemed to cut it short by ripping into Change. I believe they've been doing this at every show of this tour.
Now I'm going through that video of the entire sacramento set and I check a comment I made about the new album, wouldn't you know it a guy said that he met Chino before the PDX show and he said the new album is coming soon. Not that its anything special but still worth a little post.

But I am starting to wonder what "soon" means to Deftones lol. After 5 years, November might seem "soon". I hope not that long though....

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

Quote from: Formant on Mar 26, 2025, 03:07 PMI think April/May will be when new album marketing gets out there. Including singles.
They won't be playing any shows at that time.
Then the international tour begins, wherein Steph won't take part. So unlikely the album will be released before that, since he won't be there to perform those songs' debut.
Album in July/August right before the North American pt. 2 tour (as advertised with the snake).
This is what I think too, after the first leg of the tour ends we'll get info on the new album, but it won't drop til later summer when they're playing with Stef again. I personally can't see them playing new songs for the first time without Stef, but who knows.
^^^ I agree. I cannot imagine Stef would be too happy if they premiered a song that he helped write without him there to play it. It may be a long summer boys. On the bright side if it actually does drop this winter, it'll be some fresh sexy time music for people hunkering down in the winter lmao
Why do people think this will be their last album?
What about Eros?

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

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

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

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

I'm sure this means nothing but I found this short clip of an interview Nick did recently. It was uploaded a couple days ago but the interview could have been done months ago. The full interview requires a paid subscription and I can't say I'm curious enough to pay for it.

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

I wonder if something went really wrong, like it had to be remixed etc (Gore). It's definitely taking longer than even I expected, I was a pessimist about it's release date from the beginning.
https://imgur.com/a/RHJOM7a
It's Deftones, expect delays and mystery - enjoy the ride ;D
I don't think anything went wrong. They're older and are juggling a resurgence in popularity amidst health and family.
(I'm not trying to imply specific concerns in either area, for any members of Deftones. Just speaking on life being unique for older touring musicians with families)
This major tour is good to capitalize off the moment, and maybe the label is choosing to therefore delay the album to release after this tour finishes.
At this point in their careers, I think they don't care anymore about how soon to release an album. And WB likely have their own plans, also.
DEFTONES JS POSTED A NEW SONG ON YOUTUBE
https://youtu.be/3BFTio5296w?si=nW9P9HJgDrEpqHFE
Nope. Not falling for that today. lol
Reflecting on their TikTok popularity ahead of this album...it is insane how popular their cover of Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want is. I know it's easy to be snobbish as an older fan but seriously — it has more listens on Spotify now than Digital Bath! And for what might be their least good cover. They have like twelve that are better.

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

Eh you wish. I don't listen to Deftones anymore but seeing the crowds they draw now makes the disconnection grow only so stronger.
I'm sure lots of people on there actually care about the music but TikTok definitely has this thing with images and carving out unrealistic representations. I have the impression a lot of fanbases use the music like a piece of clothing. I guess the old punks would call it posing, not sure I would agree but I don't know man. I could be wrong but I think a lot of people from previous generations would have noticed the new album tease they've been using, and I haven't seen a mention of it anywhere!
It's either this or I got too old for this. Maybe it's a bit of both

I've seen teenagers wearing Nirvana shirts and I'll ask them if they listen to the band, one response was "No but my dad really likes them".
I don't think gen z or y or whatever it is now actually acknowledges "posing", or maybe they do I have no idea. It just occurs to me that they are more about current trends and gravitate more toward what they deem fashionable at the moment than the older generations. Not a judgement, just an observation based on how different information and fashion is spread nowadays. I've been debating whether I like Deftones' newfound popularity in the younger crowds, and I've decided I'm fine with it as long as it means they get to keep doing what they do.
I'm old, I don't have Tiktok. I find out about new music from this forum lmao. I can't believe Head Automatica has new music, what has it been? 20 years?
I really believe TikTok has made it worse. Like sure, teenagers will still hop on trends and want to be popular or cool one way or another, it probably wasn't much different when I was a kid if I'm trying to look at all angles. But fucking shit on a mountain, TikTok is real life horror when it comes to that.
When I think back on the kids who struggled to socialise and were severely depressed because they hated not being popular or couldn't fit in with what was cool, I can only imagine what being on TikTok would have done to them.
When I saw Deftones were getting momentum from the exposure on TikTok, I thought it was cool for them, more fans, more success, what's the issue right? But when I take a deeper look at it, I'm like eeehhh...
Im 14 turning 15 this year but
2023 in march [i was 12] I found out abt Deftones and didn't like them, I think first song i heard was feticere. But I started to listen to other band like Slipknot and linkin park, then later into 2023 [i was 13] Deftones rises in popularity and I re listen to them, and I fall in love with them. And no im not stuck on ATF and WP. I've listened to every single Deftones album except black stallion bc ts is ass. I'm a huge fan of Deftones and I play like all their songs on guitar. Unfortunately I don't own any merch of posters abt them. But yet again I found Deftones abt tiktok, but im not like those basic teens trying to be cool, only listing yo change, cherry waves, mos, and 7words. Like they need to grow up musically 😭
There's nothing wrong with the way most teenagers react to music, whether it is you or others. Some people go to see Deftones just because they heard Change, and nobody has an authority on what is the acceptable way to enjoy music.
I'm talking about the system implicit to TikTok, not the users
I have talked to teenagers with Deftones shirts who ACTUALLY listen to them and legit connect with the music. Which is fucking cool af to say about a band.
I never did come across anyone that I can recall when I was younger who wore a band shirt they didn't actually listen to, because they would be called a poser, and many people I knew back in the day listened to bands much older like Led Zeppelin and the Doors.
This is my new favorite phrase

Apologies for the double post but yes, I'm not judging the younger generation, just making an observation on the difference in the way they experience pop culture. When I was growing up if you wanted to hear new exciting bands it was venues, MTV, and college radio.

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

Strangest thing but I was out and saw some cassette tapes for sale, like new albums. I think they are experiencing a little resurgence atm. Who is buying them? I guess for nostalgia and maybe younger ppl for the novelty of it?

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

Agreed. Can't believe they are headlining arenas.
Tomorrow is my 51st Deftones show.
I told myself DDLD '22 was my last show. The live shows for me left a lot to be desired, then I heard their live set from Lollapaloza last year and they sounded great.
Thought I'd give them another shot when they announced this tour because I was certain they would have a new album and play new material.
Well, here we are. lol.
Final chance for new material this tour may be tonight at MSG.
I'm 99% sure that's not happening though
This run of shows seems to have gone really well. Dead pleased for them.
I just need new music. I can't say I get excited for much across the arts these days, but Deftones are and always will be my band, and everything around a new album is always one of the highlights of my year. This one now feels like it's been coming for ages. I don't care whether they play anything new live, even when I see them in June. I just want the album announced.

I'm a staunch setlist complainer/arena hater. But after watching some live shows on YouTube from this tour I'm tempted to catch them on leg 2. The band and especially Chino look like they're having a blast on stage.
I hope they at least tease something tonight during the MSG show. New music would be absolutely great seeing as how good every concert has been performance-wise and a new song would speed up the hype train really well. Even if we don't though, which is purely speculation, I won't mind because they sound amazing. I'm super impressed with how consistently good they have been this tour.
Also, this is a pretty big reach but I noticed that the Deftones logo for the MSG show tour poster is different (its on their latest instagram story). Kind of looks like the same white snake inside the letters but im not sure. The poster also has a MSG logo added underneath.
I think that's just the lines from the wall/bricks.
Edit: just saw the other one, I think it's that the lighting in the photo but it does look like a cool texture

I don't think they'll do anything until after the April 9th show. But the last 2 "updates" to the deftones.com website were 2 weeks apart.. and 2 weeks after the newest "update" is April 9th, if they don't do any updates to the website then, I think it'll be a waiting game until the august tour.

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

It's not directly from the band so take it with a grain of salt. I can not go in to details, but I think the guy saying November was being generous. And that's just for a single. The album itself is likely farther off than that.
I really can't say anymore. I have no reason to lie, and my source has no reason to lie. They don't even know about this board either. I would love to explain, but I can't. I hope as much as anyone the November guy + my source are wrong. What my source told me made my stomach drop out of sadness. Hunker down everyone. Gonna be a while.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I had a dream they where in studio playing beer pong, and they were all having fun listening to thr new album. They where under like purple lights purplish blue. Stef was rocking out on guitar playing the new songs
Listened to the interlude off the Chicago video, which was almost a solid 2 minutes. It kinda sounds like accordion?? Heard a sample with echo before Chino started playing Cherry Waves
Yeah that is surely new. Reminds me a ton of the Pompeji outro that they also used for live shows. Im confident its from the new album
I'm going to say if we don't get a tease or single off the new album between April 9 and the end of may, it's going to be a longggg 7 months of waiting.

Yeah same, I considered for a second it may be just Frank setting the mood before the encore but he's not onstage. It sounds like it's part of a bigger tune so I don't think it's an interlude they made for the sake of the tour either. Prob new Deftones

It sounds like some feedback from Stefs guitar with some ambient noises from Frank. Sounds like a build up
I don't know why, but that idea that this might be their last album starts to make some sense in my soul...
I feel that with Sergio leaving and all the Stef shit including him not playing overseas anymore... maybe things don't feel the same anymore for the guys...
And now with this idea of trying to capitalize as much as possible with these tours...
Maybe they end with a bang with the last album and leave it at that.
I don't know...

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

At this last concert of the tour, I at least want Chino to say something like, "We got a new record coming out, so stay tuned in the next couple months" or something like that.
One thing that was weird imo was tokyodrifter logging on here recently. I mean it's a fan forum first of, but that aside I didn't think he'd check in unless there was something going on. My understanding is that he was not the one feeding kitesvera the info that was deleted so I don't think he was keeping tabs either.

Yeah same, I considered for a second it may be just Frank setting the mood before the encore but he's not onstage. It sounds like it's part of a bigger tune so I don't think it's an interlude they made for the sake of the tour either. Prob new Deftones
It sounds like some feedback from Stefs guitar with some ambient noises from Frank. Sounds like a build up
Actually torn on whether or not this was a tour track per se as opposed to an album tease. I don't know that they used things like this before. Sounds a little too carved out for a tour but it might as well be.
Gonna throw my guess out. Either October 31st or November 7th will be the release date. Why? Day of the dead is Saturday November 1st - Sunday November 2nd.
Dia de Los Deftones on November 1st. Album release day before or week after.
Hope I'm wrong because I'm impatient like everyone else. But this makes sense. Throw out a single or two before leg 2 of the tour.
Their number of songs on ASCAP has changed from 113 to 112 a while back, and in the last day or so it's gone from 112 to 110... I wonder if they're just removing duplicate songs?

Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups. I'm sure Sergio assumed he had a permanent spot in the band...
Quote from: Inkblades on Apr 09, 2025, 05:50 PMImagine if they debuted the new album live for the last show tonight and then dropped it tomorrow. That would certainly be a mic drop moment.

Welp im guessing no new shit for tonight, nothing on reddit, so we are either fucked till rodeskill-August 22nd, or we get something until then IF NOT
we are fucked
The window between them teasing the new album and its release is consistently about 3-4 months. All the snake stuff obviously seems to be tied to the new album, and there is the Roskilde article, but it seems to me as though something happened in the meantime that changed their plans completely. Everything is super up in the air rn which is why I'd kill for just an update on how the album is going. Doesn't need to be anything grandiose.
I find it kind of wild that they did a massive arena tour, and there are no interviews from journalist or radio stations in those big cities.

Maybe there are, but they just aren't being released yet. Like that article written in December but published like a month ago
^The above article I'm referring to is the one where Chino expressed wanting to release the album mid-tour
I think someone already said this previously in the thread, but I agree; At least we got Crosses material back at the end of 2023. Patience is key now I guess.
Just curious, would you guys prefer a new Deftones or Team Sleep (it'll never happen) album?
Quote from: plagasx on Apr 11, 2025, 07:06 PMJust curious, would you guys prefer a new Deftones or Team Sleep (it'll never happen) album?
Deftones.
We only ever got 1 Team Sleep album, and Team Sleep basically doesn't exist any more.

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

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

What if they were ready to release a single, then they scrapped it and picked another song to be the single because it'll play better for the TikTok generation and go viral? LOL

Nice! So safe to assume they have a release date in mind? Do you know if the release will be during or after the tour?
I can say the Mars Volta's new album releases April 11th.
I went to him and he was correct about this so?
^ Plans can change at the drop of a hat though. His intel could have been right at the time and then something changed. Let's just hope we're all being really melodramatic and an announcement will still happen in the next month or two.
I was thinking if Chino was still on Mixlr we would have heard half the album by now lol. It's better this way though, I'd rather hear the whole album in one shot.
R.I.P. Dai.
If someone hadn't screenshotted his comment about Sergio, which he'd explicitly asked not to be shared, he might still be on Mixlr.
I think he did one more session then deleted it.
^ Somebody always has to ruin it for everyone else.

I'd actually had a quick chat with him about things accessible to the public. If it's out there you just can't control it
Gives me even more perspective about how the new album seems locked up now that I think about it..

I don't understand what do you mean?
Deftones have experienced things leaking in advance several times, whether it was music or info. And it seems to me with this record they've been paying attention. There hasn't been a single bit of info spreading anywhere
I agree with that, especially because all the band members said that they're excited about the album. That's pretty telling to me that they don't want the experience to be spoiled.
In any case, and due credit goes to the guy who first posted this,

Some dude made a comment a little while ago that we would hit 1k comments before album came out. I believe it's way higher than that at this point since there is absolutely no news whatsoever, which is really odd to me.

April is probably done for man. I wouldn't count on anything until summer.
And that might be wishful thinking, even.
I think something definitely happened at the beginning of this year that changed their plans of release...
From a business standpoint, it could be due to the instability of the American market right now.
My guess would be they will do some publicity over the summer, release a single around the start of their tour and the album will be out November.
We need something, im like dying over here, dreaming abt this new album 💔
We're gonna start holding group therapy sessions over this lol
I scrubbed though the BReal podcast Steph was on yesterday and he made no mention of the album nor did anyone from the chat ask about it. They even do shoutouts and the end and the woman they had on promoted her book and Steph had the opportunity to do his own promotions and nothing 🤦🏽�♂️
This place is death
2026 lads
2026 for sure
Oh lord
Any Hollow Knight fans in here too, waiting for Silksong? The two things I have been looking forward to for years have both had bizzare, extended silence. At least Silksong got confirmed to be sometime this year. As someone else mentioned, I am convinced something else happened behind the scenes near the end of the year that changed all the initial plans.
Deftones usually release their albums in fall & summer/spring months, with no winter releases that I know.
Adrenaline-Oct
ATF-Oct
WP-June
S/T-May
SNW-Oct
DE-May
KNY-Nov
Gore-Apr
Ohms-Sept
With spring coming to a close soon and no official news or information yet, I'd say it's safe to assume we can expect summer or fall release. Who knows, maybe they will have a first and release it in winter, though that seems unlikely.
So new deftones beer is up on thr website, and it's usually named after thr songs,
Well this one is called tone zero? Idk I'm clueless amd theorizing
Zero means non-alcoholic beer.
Quote from: Inkblades on Apr 19, 2025, 12:39 AMZero means non-alcoholic beer.
Im an idiot it's right there on the text 😭
Well I guess this album isn't coming any time soon then. Shame. I could really do with new Deftones in my life right now
I think it's coming after leg two of the tour, and I honestly can't blame them as much as I want new music. It makes sense to just ride out this arena tour that's already sold out and successful without new music, and then release it late fall/winter with DDLD getting a new song or two
We're getting a Chino remix of a song from The Cure's recent album before we're hearing anything off this.

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

Sorry man :( this is where I come to just speculate about the music and talk about what I wish for in terms of the music itself. But if I had one wish for this band, it would be that they, as people, are living their best, happiest, healthiest lives. And if that means no new music in 2025 or 2026 or 2027 then I'm okay with that. I would never ever want them to jeopardize any of that to give the fans anything.
Someone asked Stef on the Greenthumb podcast when the album was coming out, he says its coming out in 2025 for sure, he doesn't know the release date, but he's thinking Late summer maybe.
Excellent.
Great to hear!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBcEPVV8d2M
1:22:43 for the timestamp of Steph talking about new album!
If it's late summer... we could get a single in May/June, second one July, album in August!
He was asked the same question on that podcast before, and he said late 2024/early 2025.
He doesn't know.
But it wasn't done then.

Ah the great Sharing Lungs Act of 2008. Forgot about that legislation.
He does hedge his bets on the late summer prediction. Stef usually plays a straight bat to questions so I think he'd say if he knew.
'Likely maybe late summer I'm guessing' means there's not exactly a single coming next week. But if that's the impression he has then I think sharinglungs' guess of June for single, August/September for album looks a decent shout.
I hope so lol it's the only album I've been really waiting for since early last year. Everything else that's come out since is just a bonus to kill time at this point
Whatever any of the guys say is a likely release date, I always tack on a few months.
At least its coming this year. I would've lost it if it was going to be pushed to 2026.
Stephen saying "I don't have an exact date, but maybe late summer?" does make me wonder about album release dates in general. You think the artists would have some say, but how much does the record label really control?
Case probably is that its mostly the label controlling stuff after the album is completed musically. Although him saying late summer completely adds up with the teasers thus far, which are also probably instructed by their label.
Next time stef is on the greenthumb podcast, most likely Tuesday, I'm going to try and ask him a question about the snake tongue logo from the meet and greet photos and the website icon/tour poster.
