I have yet to see a band release an Album and see no Video promotion to this level...

Makes you wonder if Deftones are on drugs, or Warner Brothers is?
It'll be Warner maybe they feel bands like Deftones won't benefit from an expensive video given the fact they won't get any tv play and it will only be viewed on YouTube. They're probably right the Youtube video would only be watched by people who already know of Deftones and those people have probably already bought or heard the album, the benefit of music videos used to be they got played on Tv so you exposed your music to a new bunch of potential fans nowadays bands like Deftones just don't get airtime so they get new fans through radio and word of mouth instead.

I wish their Kimmel performance never got cancelled

The mix sounds weird in the video too. The guitars are down and Chino's voice seems to have more clarity.

You know.. I was thinking the same thing...

yep definitely. Could be the youtube compression though.

Well, seeing as it's not Deftones choice to make videos or not make videos.. it's clear that Warner Bros are on some serious drugs.

Well, we all know Deftones are, but the jury's still out on WB.
