Deftones’ album private music has been ranked as the #1 metal album of 2025 by Rolling Stone magazine.
The list also includes bands like Ghost, Dream Theater, Deafheaven, and Whitechapel, but Sleep Token is notably absent.
Rolling Stone‘s broader Top 100 Albums Of 2025 list only features two heavier records: Deftones at #76 and Turnstile at #31.
Deftones will be embarking on an Australian tour in May 2026, their first full-blown arena tour in almost a decade, with Interpol and Ecca Vandal as support acts.
