The 10th Deftones studio album.

[Moana91]

Let's hope for a big surprise.........

[Inkblades]

People in the chat are saying they actually did play Tempest. Bloody Cape is the one they skipped. Now playing HITE.

[Moana91]

So it seems Tempest was played as song 4 and it was an error on Setlist fm

[Moana91]

It's over

[Moana91]

Now there's truly 0% chance of getting anything before this tour leg ends in April...

[gavinkfox]

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

[Formant]

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".

[Inkblades]

^ 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.

[LG95]

I'm confident it's coming soon.

So has anyone doing the meet and greet just straight up asked when we could expect something?

[sharinglungs]

Haven't seen anyone mention it on Reddit yet.

Going to have to start a 2026 gang chant soon. lol

[Inkblades]

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

[gavinkfox]

They also could be keeping quiet for a reason

[Formant]

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.

[LG95]

Tokyo online again a few hours ago. He likes the lurk.

[Moana91]

This place has gone so quiet

[Dawnofwar2010]

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.
