"My Own Summer (Shove It)" is a single by Sacramento, California-based alternative metal band Deftones; their first to be taken from the album Around the Fur. It was released in 1997 by Maverick Records. It was Deftones' first charting single, reaching number 29 in the UK Singles Chart.[3] A version of the song was featured on the soundtrack of The Matrix.

Video

The video, directed by Dean Karr,[4] begins with a clip of a cage falling into the sea, blood seeping out of it into the surrounding waters. It then moves to footage of the band playing on a set of floating anti-shark cages. Eventually, a shark appears and is seen to be eating a piece of meat, presumably the contents of the cage. At the end of the video, Moreno falls into the water and the video fades out.

On the B-Sides & Rarities DVD, there is an interview with Moreno that takes place during the filming of the video.
