Deftones’ latest album, *private music*, is making waves in the charts, selling 87,000 copies in its first week. The record debuted at number one on Billboard’s Top Rock and Alternative charts, marking a first for the band in this category. It also landed at number five on the overall Billboard 200 chart.
Their single “My Mind Is a Mountain” topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay list, giving the band their first-ever number one on the Billboard charts after three decades in the music scene. Another track, “Infinite Source,” reached the top of the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, racking up 4.2 million streams in the U.S. “My Mind Is a Mountain” follows closely behind with 3.2 million streams and 3.1 million radio plays.
Deftones are dominating the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, holding the top six spots. All eleven songs from *private music* are in the top sixteen, a feat not seen since Linkin Park and Sleep Token in 2020.
Young fans are discovering Deftones through social media, with classic tracks like “Entombed,” “Cherry Waves,” and “Sextape” gaining traction on TikTok.
The band kicked off their tour last month to support the new album. During their Vancouver show, they honored the late Brent Hinds of Mastodon by performing “Entombed.”
Fans can grab their copy of *private music* now and enjoy the fresh sounds from one of rock’s most beloved bands.
