Deftones – private music
With private music, Deftones return with one of the most focused and dynamic statements of their storied career. Across eleven tracks, the band continues to evolve their unmistakable sound—a seamless fusion of brutal heaviness, immersive atmosphere, and emotional depth.
Decades after redefining alternative metal with albums like Adrenaline, White Pony, and Ohms—the latter earning them multiple GRAMMY® nominations—Deftones now deliver a lean, meditative, and masterfully constructed set. Produced by longtime collaborator Nick Raskulinecz (Diamond Eyes, Koi No Yokan) and featuring touring bassist Fred Sablan, private music explores themes of nature’s duality, inner resilience, and transcendence beyond the physical world.
At once psychedelic and punishing, private music is a bold new peak from a band still forging paths in sound and spirit.
