I meant average in the sense of casual. That is to say, the people who heard Change 20 years ago and have their songs pop up occasionally on their spotify probably aren't giving their site much traffic, let alone obsessively scouring the net for information on their new album. This is for the crazies like us who visit their sites regularly to purchase merch, tickets, and consume whatever else they're giving us. This is Deftones we're talking about, they're not some super famous pop artist that is consistently pulling in tons of traffic and interest from new fans. This is about riling up the small but rabid fanbase that they have.

Deftones went black out on their social media profile pics... It's happening

That picture reminds me of an old-fashioned electric light board (for lack of a better description, not exactly a science major lol) or something.

You have to qualify "millions of fans" a little better. Sure, there are millions of people who consider themselves fans, they like their music. How many of those are visiting their site on the regular, and again, of those, how many are desperately searching for clues?

This is my favorite band and one that I'm completely obsessed with (obviously since I'm on this site arguing about them) and I've rarely visited their homepage over the years. I've got a bunch of friends that are really into the band and I'd doubt that even half of them have been their webpage.

Complete Black. 

This shit reminds me back in the day putting white pony cd in my computer and unlocking playing the Pac-Man game with the horse and the band members we're the ghost trying to get you.

Unlikely as I think this is, everything going black - Black Stallion?

Deftones also just created a playlist on Spotify and there's a link to the website in the description

Could be. This artist I follow on Instagram named Richey Beckett just posted a picture on Instagram this morning of this White Pony Revolver magazine box set thing that he illustrated. The box set is black and everything

What playlist did they create

Last thing Chino posted to Twitter was a track called "The Lights Are Going Out" by OMD. Coincidence?

Also, title of the album pretty much confirmed in all that source code folks are dropping. And if it's right (I hope it is, as it's a sweet very Deftones-ish title) I want some Brian Eno-level ambient textures in this sucker.

Just a complete collection playlist. All albums including Covers and B Sides, in a weird order though, it goes:

WP
Gore
KNY
DE
SNW
B Sides
Deftones
ATF
Adrenaline
Covers

Ie. all albums in reverse order except with WP first and Covers last

I like the way you think, who's an expert on dot to dots!? lol

With no numbers it may be difficult

The art kind of reminds me of scientific data images. With the purported album title, could work out.

I'm visually impaired and learned braille in high school. From the looks of the spacing it doesn't appear to be braille. Braille is in patterns of 6 dots; two vertical rows of 3 dots each with variations. The sequencing is all over the place..I wish it was though cause I'd be deciphering that shit.
