Deftones' drummer Abe Cunningham has opened up about the artwork for their upcoming album Ohms. When asked about the eyes featured on the artwork, Cunningham said that the artwork was done by Frank Maddocks, who has done the artwork for all of their albums. He explained, “So there’s all these weird theories about the eyes and it’s kind of crazy. There’s this picture of Chi Cheng that people have been putting up that’s kind of this famous one that’s been out there, and they actually laid those eyes on top of there and they match up perfectly. Which is a total coincidence and really kind of trippy though too if you think about it.”

He continued, “So he ended up coming back with a few things and we just like, the eyes man,… they have a very sort of 80s, sort of Prince kind of ‘When Doves Cry‘ video kind of look to them. So yeah it was just one of those things but then all these people started to lay that picture over these eyes of Chi and it really matches up crazy…”

“Ohms” will be out on September 25th.
