Helming the band's visual, which stars actor Cleopatra Coleman as she falls deeper and deeper into the pitfalls of exclusivity, is Leigh Whannell, who directed last year’s dark and twisted The Invisible Man, and just so happens to be a huge fan of the band. In a statement along with the video's release, singer Chino Moreno said, "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."

"I’ve been a huge Deftones fan for over 20 years," Wannell adds, "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."

In addition to the creepy new video, the band has announced they'll be heading out on a run of North American and European tour dates with Gojira beginning in June overseas.
