The announcement follows the release of Deftones’ brand new single, “my mind is a mountain”, premiered by Zane Lowe on his Apple Music Radio show. Watch the episode HERE. The track gives fans a first glimpse into the sound and direction of private music, a record co-produced by the band and GRAMMY® Award-winning producer Nick Raskulinecz, who previously collaborated with them on Diamond Eyes [2010] and Koi No Yokan [2012].

Recorded in California’s Malibu, Joshua Tree, and in Nashville, Tennessee, private music sees Deftones continuing to push sonic and emotional boundaries.
