Deftones release new music video for ‘Ceremony’

DEFTONES have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Ceremony, is taken from the band’s latest studio album, Ohms, which was released in September last year. The new music video was directed by Leigh Whannell, writer and director of Upgrade and the 2020 blockbuster The Invisible Man.

“When Leigh tweeted that he was a fan, we immediately thought it would be cool to collaborate with him given the chance. We’re fans of his as well, so it made sense that we should reach out. One moment we’re DM’ing each other on Twitter, and the next we’re on set making Ceremony. This has always been the best way for us to collaborate: organically, collaboratively and in this case, expeditiously. We hope everyone enjoys it as much as we had making it,” says vocalist Chino Moreno of the new music video.

Director Leigh Whannell adds, “I’ve been a huge DEFTONES fan for over twenty years and have always admired the devotion they have dedicated to every aspect of their art – from music videos to album covers to their cryptic and intriguing lyrics. To get a chance to be a part of that art was a dream come true.”
