Or maybe this "complete black" thing is their way of telling us that they are going completely black metal.

Close. All of the lyrics will be sung in *AAVE. https://www.hawaii.edu/satocenter/langnet/definitions/aave.html
Chino is going back to his roots from growing up in the hood.

*ie. not sung in Standard American English.

Waiting is hard on its own, maybe we can overthink while we wait!

Maybe something is gonna happen at 9:25pm tonight ?!?!? Lol

SPOILER ALERT.  9 2 5 actually refers to the hit song 9 To 5 sung by Dolly Parton who will be appearing on the fist single from Album 9.

Half my brain-"It's been 4 1/2 years. I can wait a little longer."
Half my brain-"IT'S BEEN 4 1/2 YEARS! I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!"

Hey, Tokyo, do you think in the future whenever Deftones hang em up for good, you'd tell us your identity? I have a guess but I'm sure it's wrong. IDK though, sometimes a personality can be spotted even through an anonymous forum. But having you in particular around here makes this even more fun. I wouldn't even want to know who you are until many years from now.

All I can say is I hope Chino and all the band members continue on with music in some shape or form in the distant future, whether that's with Deftones, producing other upcoming bands, solo albums, side projects, etc.

In the interview below starting at 8:00 Chino says he'll always have something to do with music in the future. Even if it's working in a record store lol... shit I can already picture him owning his own record store in Portland  ....any who check out the interview below. I know the interview is over 20 yrs old but makes me wonder if he believes the same thing or if his mentality has changed especially after so many years.

I dunno why everyone keeps assuming that they're hanging it up after this record... it's the most ridiculous rumor i've seen today lol

They'd have more if they didn't wait 4 years between releases

I see them going on like Radiohead.

Ahhh I see what you did there!

Going back to the gore reveal... they seem to have released the 30 second teaser trailer about a day before they started teasing the album artwork.

They did one image a day for 9 days.

Then the prayers/triangles single released on the last day... so... who knows.. we might get something every day if thats the case.

Also you could shazam the teaser which revealed the full album art before it was done... so if we get an audio clip.. we'll probably be able to see the album art..

I don't see the dot image anymore on their site .... can anybody else confirm this?
