Queens of the Stone Age - Villains - 2017

fucking tool

i support his "Fuck Muse" stance

This sucks. I missed their show when they came through DC, but there's been rampant discussion over on the qotsa subreddit during this tour for the past few months about how his drug use/alcoholism is really getting on top of him this tour. There have been a few other incidents of asshole behavior. And he's always been a bit of a hothead, but it's been to the point where he's really disappointing the fans. The telltale signs of a middle-aged man frantically trying to keep a grip on his self-image as badass. This is the culmination of that I guess. Super lame.

Official Statement:

Last night, while in a state of being lost in performance, I kicked over various lighting and equipment on our stage. Today it was brought to my attention that this included a camera held by photographer Chelsea Lauren. I did not mean for that to happen and I am very sorry. I would never intentionally cause harm to anyone working at or attending one of our shows and I hope Chelsea will accept my sincere apology.—Joshua Homme

I take "Lost In Performance"="Fucked Up On Something".

well that's p weak

he was superb at the boston show but seemed extremely cokey. lots of nonsense between songs. hell, the record is kinda like that. the most recent video too.

That's a bunch of bullshit. The video clearly shows him kicking exactly one thing - the photographer and her camera.

Co-co-co-co-co-cocaine...

I think its keeping up with the tradition of Iggy pop, freaking out squares. Nothing more, nothing less. Everything is so PC nowadays and everyone's got their own little opinion about everything. Rock should be dangerous, insulting, in your face, should make you feel uncomfortable from time to time.

So this poster's saying he/she should be kicked in the face?

I'd hoped eagles of death metal was his trash bin for throwing away these impulses while keeping QotSA actually good

he's been on a trajectory of being Dave Grohl for people who have heard of Jesus Lizard for a minute

well the album title is fitting now congrats Josh

nicotine / valium / vicodin / marijuana / ecstasy / alcohol can take a toll

He's posted an apology video to FB now as well.

I have a strong feeling that in addition to any charges filed (which should happen), we'll be hearing about a rehab trip in the coming days.

kevin gates went to jail for this

queens + ELP mashup

This works really well - never would have considered it. Thanks for sharing.

ok, so not 70s ELP.
was wondering how that was going to work.

This is great. The version of way u do rips
Also good choice of deep cuts

brad might be right, I underrated this album. feels like a fully blossomed era vulgaris

It's a very good album

This is so amazing I can’t believe the whole world doesn’t love it

Just a guess but maybe the whole world doesn't yet love it because "The uploader has not made this video available in your country".

Oh god damn.

A new song - Emotion Sickness - has leaked* and is a fun, glammy stomp. I haven't listened closely to the lyrics, which were the weakest part of Villians for me. The new album will be called In New Roman Times, which makes me want to gag.

*will be released Thursday.

Sorry, the album will be called In Times New Roman. You can see how I got mixed up though.

The interweaving guitar parts on the chorus remind me of Built To Spill. I'm kinda flipping out about it.
