Congratulations are in order for Deftones, who’ve achieved their career-best UK chart position with Private Music.
The band’s 5/5-rated masterpiece has landed at Number Two following its release on August 22, beaten only by Wolf Alice’s The Clearing. Private Music’s predecessors Ohms and Gore both hit Number Five, with the Official Charts noting that ‘the American metal pioneers have enjoyed strong UK chart success’ in recent years.

Trying to pinpoint exactly why Deftones are where they are, Chino reflected, “I don’t have an explanation of why and how we are. My instinct is to say it’s a lot of luck, but I’ve always gone back to our friendship being the base. I really enjoy making music with them. Stephen doesn’t play like I expect him to play. And that’s what is so awesome. And I’m sure it’s the same for him with me – I don’t play how he would probably want someone to play. He gets mad at Abe sometimes because Abe doesn’t play what he expects over what he writes…”
