Deftones are on a roll right now. A whole three decades after the legendary alternative metal group formed, Chino Moreno and co remain massively popular, having gone viral on TikTok in recent years and played huge festival headline slots across Europe last summer. It helps, of course, that Deftones have a stonking catalogue of hits, from ‘Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)’ and ‘Change (In the House of Flies)’ to ‘Tempest’.

And Deftones aren’t slowing down anytime soon. Not only did the Sacramento band release a new album in 2025 – Private Music – but they’re on a huge tour of the UK’s biggest arenas. Deftones have been touring the UK and Europe since the end of January 2026.
