DEFTONES: Private Music CD (Indie Exclusive)

The Deftones have spent thirty years being too heavy for alt radio and too atmospheric for metal, and somehow that's made them essential to both.

Private Music arrives as an indie exclusive CD in fog grey, the kind of release that rewards the people who still buy physical media and care about what format their grief comes in. The Deftones have always operated in their own space, somewhere between the bruising low-end of Around the Fur and the ambient heartbreak of White Pony, and this continues that lineage. Chino Moreno's vocal dynamic, the way the band drops from crushing to weightless inside a single bar, it's still one of the most distinctive sounds in alternative music. This is the CD pressing for the indie stores, not the mass market version.
