The Sacramento-formed rockers headlined London's strongest alternative music line-up.
In the midst of an abundant summer lineup for rock enthusiasts and metalheads in the U.K., the Deftones made a stellar appearance at All Points East in London. This curated festival, with its roots in the UK's hardcore punk scene, has become a hotspot for metal, rock, rap, and hard dance fans. The festival kicked off with headbanging and moshing at London's Victoria Park, which has already hosted headline shows from Jorja Smith & Tems and Lorde.
As the festival progressed, the crowd was treated to sets from artists such as IDLES, Interpol, Amyl & The Sniffers, Deafheaven, EsDeeKid, JPEGMAFIA, and Yousuke Yukimatsu.
The Deftones, a Sacramento-based group known for their ferocious, theatrical, and subtle sound, delivered a memorable set on Sunday (Aug. 21). Surrounded by enthusiastic fans wearing black, tattered band tees and bandanas, the festival-goers took pride in their belonging to a welcoming community. As the festival marked its halfway point, these were the five best moments to remember from Outbreak's takeover.
