I'm speechless. private music is so good.

I'm 41 and definitely started listening to Deftones much later than I should have.

I first heard them on TV around 1998, but I never cared much for the music back then. My inner circle was heavily into straight-up metal so I wasn't really in touch with the kind of style Chino was exploring.

As I grew older, my musical tastes changed, and becoming a father eleven years ago really made me stop and listen to the lyrics and the music in a deeper way. When I finally dove into the Deftones catalog, I was blown away with all of it. They quickly became a Top 3 band for me, ever.

And now, private music is just so incredibly excellent. Every single track is so perfectly balanced. I listened to it for the first time in the car on release day, and I genuinely cried when i think about you all the time came on. It was exactly what I needed to hear at that precise moment.

In the most sincere way, thank you Deftones!
