      Have you noticed the last 3 album covers are essentially the same? A humanoid figure with a creature/entity on it? Not sure if this is intentional or not - but to me it's really boring I wish they'd done something different for the new album

      Josh Homme went back to Morning Breath Inc. (the artists of Era Vulgaris) to do the art for Desert Sessions 11 & 12. But besides that, Boneface has been QOTSA's go to artist since ...Like Clockwork. I think Josh just really likes Boneface as a person and his art in general.

      Nice little story maybe next time use commas though because it's incredibly hard to read when everything is one long sentence who writes a check for an album anyway it's like 15 whatever currency you use you could have just given one handjob at a truckstop and not fuck up your finances to get the album oh well life is full of choices I guess great album though I agree too bad they left out the title track because it's a real 5 bagger

      Nick getting kicked out of Queens was *the best* thing that ever happened, there was nowhere to expand with him onboard. His contributions were fantastic, especially his bass playing on Rated R, yet I couldn't be happier it ended when it ended though.
      Lullabies, Vulgaris and Clockwork are all throughly brilliant albums and the live show was at its absolute peak in 05'.

    Thank you lots for uploading this. This was the first queens album that clicked. It does have a lot of bonehead moves, as Josh said, and that is exactly what I like, I'm the Stooges fan as well. Also Josh is not pretentious, as some have commented, or at least there is no way of knowing from here - he's just funny. Like, if you don't get a joke you think it's not funny? It's that case
