Deftones Release "Romantic Dreams" Video

posted in: Music NewsRock

California rock outfit Deftones have partnered with Redbull Music to release the official video for their new single, “Romantic Dreams.”

Too often the formula for music videos boils down to performance footage and cut away sequences, but in the video for “Romantic Dreams,” Deftones remove themselves entirely. Directed by skater and filmmaker Brett Novak, the clip features pro skater Jason Park exploring Los Angeles on what appears to be the perfect summer night. You can view the video below.

When asked about the concept behind the video, Moreno offered:

“When we started this record cycle, we decided that we didn’t want to make any videos whatsoever. They’re not much fun to make and they usually turn out pretty corny. But this was an idea that we were interested in because we’re all very keen skateboarders and we like the idea of marrying one of our songs to someone as talented as Jason Park.”

Deftones’ latest album, Koi No Yokan, is available now.
