You're actually spot on when you mentioned driving so far that the radio just changes stations. The main concept of the album is the idea of going on a road trip without touching the radio and just listening to whatever it picks up as you drive so far that it has to pick up another radio station.
They're literally drinking alcohol which is a super powerful downer/psychotropic drug. It just happens to be normalized, it effects the mood and mind in ways even "harder" drugs can't achieve. It just takes more. They should smoke a bowl maybe.
You guys would absolutely fucking LOVE listening to Them Crooked Vultures only album. Supergroup with Dave Grohl on drums, Josh Homme (QOTSA) on guitar, and Jon Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin) on bass. Yeah, you heard that right. Next time you wanna get fired the fuck up, pop on that one. They are coming out with a new album the next time those three titans can get together to record it. Great reaction, keep it up and you guys will grow like crazy in the RUclips space with quality content like this.
Kyuss was the originator of Desert Rock, essentially Kyuss is to QOTSA as Nirvana is to Foo Fighters. "Welcome to Sky Valley" should definitely be on your list. Two of my favorite songs ever are on there, "Demon Cleaner" and "Odyssey". There is a Tool bootleg cover of "Demon Cleaner" with Scott Reeder the bass player from Kyuss sitting in for the song and it's delicious (but you should catch it on the original album first to see how they elevate it). Maybe tack it on the end of the Kyuss album reaction.
Saw these live at Glastonbury last year. I was in the second row of people from the front, last band of the festival. It WENT OFF!. Best set I saw all weekend, if you ever get a chance to see them live, jump at it!
Agree! Saw them twenty odd years ago when they were touring this album at a small venue in Sydney. They melted my face, and probably are the cause of my tinnitus, sooo loud, but sooo good.
For a solid year, I drove to work 45 min both ways and only had this CD to listen to. I gotta say there is something about driving in traffic to these songs that strikes a visceral chord.
Its insane how underrated this album is, insane riffs, choruses vocals drums solos bridge sections rythm patterns, not one second feels wasted or boring
everyone: if you haven't seen the live performance of song for the dead with dave grohl... you HAVE TO FUCKING WATCH IT. that's all i've got to say about that.
man i loved this album i was staying in san diego at the time and crossed the border into mexico even though we werent supposed to ((military) listening to this album start to finish
This is epic, one of the featuring artists in this album on some songs (Six Shooter, Gonna Leave You, Make it wit chu) is guitarist Dean Ween. You guys should react to Ween’s 1997 album The Mollusk, especially if you guys are into alternative like QOTSA and Tool
I really recommend you to hear Soundgardan's album "Superunkown", with of the best voices in rock history, Chris Cornell. Also I think you would love The Smashing Pumpkins "Siamese Dream".
Me encontré de casualidad con este canal y justamente es el primer video que veo. Me encantó su reacción a este discazo! Personalmente es una banda que me encanta. Me alegra que gente joven se interese y le guste música de verdad. Seguiré viendo más de su contenido y disfrutando de buena música 👍 éxito muchachos.
This the first album I heard by them. I got it 16 cd for $1 in the mail. That's how I got all my albums in the early 2000s. Never paid 1 cent. I also discovered slimshady before the whole world did. I was bumping that album months before it was all over the radio, Just cuz drdre was attached.
'...Like Clockwork' by QotSA is my favourite album ever, a dark, deep turn for them. It's still filled with absurdly cool riffs, but has a distinct air of eerieness and depression. It was written after Josh Homme, the lead singer, actually died for a few minutes during a botched surgery. When he awoke, he said he'd lost all music in his head, he couldn't hear it anymore, his relationship with it had seemingly disappeared. Slowly it came back, with ...Like Clockwork as a result. But there's more to it, a lot about hatred and paranoia, a loss of love. It does feel like Queens' 'Downward Spiral' in a way.
So crazy detail about this album... Dave Grohl did two passes on the drums each time: once with electronic drums and real cymbals, then again with real drums and electronic cymbals. Usually if you record a whole full kit at once, there's bleed-over with all the sounds. So recording that way assured the tightest drum sound possible without limiting Dave.
What's even crazier is that Dave never listens to his first drum through before doing that second one. And one of his techs said there's absolutely no bleed over. He said it's un-natural and kind of freaky but then again it's what is Dave Grohl.
This specific line up doing this at Glastonbury is my fav 'supergroup' performance. Rated R is less 'mainstream' but equally as brilliant. The first album is incredible too.
I know you guys probably have a lot of albums lined up for the future, but based off one of your last polls, I would love it if you react to Disintegration and Vulgar Display of Power
Acid Bath is a band you two should seriously consider looking into. I’m not sure how into metal you both are, but they only released two albums while together and you will never hear music like it anywhere. You should give them a reaction, regardless whether you’ll like them or not.
Absolutely love this album, the entire desert road trip vibe makes it so fun to listen to. The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails is also a fantastic album! Was excited to hear you guys mention that too, 100% worth a listen!
Don't forget, you haven't finished the album until you've listened to "feel good hit of the summer" it was a single released from this album I believe. The laughing track before mosquito song is a teaser for it, or the next album. I can't remember clearly.
Hey, love yinz, but you started to fade a bit there for a minute 5 tracks in lol... Just teasing. Millennial/Xennial here, who has seen QOTSA many times and met Josh one at Coachella, and fuckin love your reaction and appreciation for this band. PLEASE keep up the good content 🙏 🤘 💙
the end the title track, the laughing is a reference to the second album - Rated R. Rated R and Songs For The Deaf are my favorite Queens albums. Has all the members I enjoy.
Watching you guys is like watching Superbad, except you're both a mix of Michael Cera and Jonah Hill. I recommend Them Crooked Vultures, a one album project with Josh Homme, Dave Grohl, and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin.
The track Song for the Dead was sung and co-written by Mark Lanegan, who had previously been the lead singer of the "grunge" band Screaming Trees, of which Josh Homme had briefly served as a touring guitarist. Lanegan was a close friend of both Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley, both of whom had passed by the time this album came out (Layne passed only four months prior). Kurt Cobain had played guitar on a couple songs on Lanegan's first solo album and he recorded a couple songs with Layne Staley's side band Mad season. In his autobiography, Lanegan likened Kurt to a little brother and Layne to a twin brother. About a year or so before Songs for the Deaf was released, Lanegan had also learned about the death of a woman he used to shack up with called Shadow. He had met her when she was living out on the streets and they began a semi-relationship. She lived with him for a brief period, but one day he came home and she wasn't there. When she never returned, he assumed she had left him and either went back to living on the streets or shacked up with someone else. It turns out she had been murdered by a serial killer. Lanegan learned what had happened to her years later when he was at a coffee shop and saw a newspaper with her picture on it and an article about how her body and two others had just been discovered. Lanegan was also among the people who had searched for Kurt along with a private investigator when Kurt went missing in the days before his suicide. According to his memoir, on the day of Kurt's suicide Lanegan had very nearly checked the place where Kurt's body would ultimately be found. But while looking for Kurt at some area dope houses earlier in the day with the PI, Lanegan had bought some heroin that he was eager to get back home with, so he didn't insist they keep looking when the PI decided to stop searching for the day. According to his memoir, when Lanegan learned that's where Kurt had actually been, he immediately "burst into tears of remorse, self-hatred and mountainous grief." He said Kurt's death shadowed him for the rest of his life.
Y'all gotta listen to the first two Oasis albums, and The Verve's Urban Hymns. All classics. If you loved this I guarantee you'll love Them Crooked Vultures which is Josh Homme, Dave Grohl, John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin, and Alain Johannes
You Should Really react to the live album "Stop Making Sense" By: Talking Heads, it's fuckin' amazing!!!! Listen to this and you will not be disappointed!
Another great video and reaction. You guys definitely gotta react to Appetite For Destruction - Guns N Roses another Classic! Do you guys plan on doing a reaction to that album in the future?
Like clockwork is defenitely a must listen for you guys. It's QOTSA's peak. Era vulgaris is also quite fun and different, might be worth a listen as well, but like clockwork is their best
First it giveth is about with drugs do first they kick ass and you're all about them and they get you feeling awesome and then it takes more and more and that is becomes a horrible horrible situation
Homme has some of the best lyrics and this album is no different than the others in that department, so I disagree with not paying attention to them but this is your guys first listen so I get if you just want to immerse yourselves in the vibe, it's a fuckin killer vibe.
I wonder, how much of that sugar ended up inside the thousand bugs that ate you up while recording this? XD That's one way to exterminate them, I guess.
Does QoTSA have more bangers? Let us know
Yes they do! You should definitely check out their album …Like Clockwork.
Many say it’s even better than songs for the deaf
This album of theirs is quality! Non stop rockers track after track. Makes a great soundtrack when driving.
ruclips.net/video/L2H3hMKiD5k/видео.html
Love their whole catalog
Self titled album, Rated R, or …Like Clockwork are all incredible
Guys. Start with Kyuss. And yes. Qotsa and RatedR has so many good songs. Those are the first 2. Then come SftD
Furiously air-drumming while listening to Song For the Dead is the only acceptable reaction. I've seen them twice and they killed it both times.
Rated R is the Queens album that made me a fan.
Same. I was in college when it came out.
Nicotine, valium, vicodin, marijuana, ecstasy, and alcohol
@@robnotwicz7002 😌
good call
Rated R is an excellent album
Journeymen from the desert
Here since the days of Kyuss
I still love their debut album
Might be their most underrated if you mean QOTSA’s debut
You're actually spot on when you mentioned driving so far that the radio just changes stations.
The main concept of the album is the idea of going on a road trip without touching the radio and just listening to whatever it picks up as you drive so far that it has to pick up another radio station.
you guys would love drugs
fr
LMAO true but dont do them kids
They're literally drinking alcohol which is a super powerful downer/psychotropic drug. It just happens to be normalized, it effects the mood and mind in ways even "harder" drugs can't achieve. It just takes more. They should smoke a bowl maybe.

RIP Lanegan.
He's a huge miss to music & my soul.
My favourite vocalist ever, and the inspiration for my first tattoos (stars on fingers).
His memoir is also utterly phenomenal too.
Dean Ween played guitar on Mosquito Song and the solo in Gonna Leave You. Shout-out to Ween. You'll discover them eventually.
They gotta do Quebec
@@kevindiguiseppe7370 Not my favorite, but I'll take it.
Holy shit i never knew that. I always thought it sounded like a ween song crazy. Sky is fallin sounds like it could be on quebec too.

It is desert music for sure. I makes me want to drive from Yuma to Joshua Tree as fast as I can.
This was peak Grohl IMO
Hands down. He made Killing Joke, Songs for the Deaf and Probot back to back to back then. Dude was cooking.
his drumming on Scream's Fumble is his best work
"I want something good to die for. To make it beautiful to live." I believe that is the lyric in 'Go with the Flow' you are wondering about.
This video is art. How you both get more drunk as the songs progress lol. Great reaction once more
For a solid year, I drove to work 45 min both ways and only had this CD to listen to. I gotta say there is something about driving in traffic to these songs that strikes a visceral chord.
My favorite album of all TIME! YES!
dead wrong buddy
@@caboose22320 kiss my ass buddy!
@@caboose22320How are they “Dead Wrong”? They said it was their favorite album of all time, not “the objective best” album lmao
this was a great reaction video boys!! listen to some more queens they will never disappoint
I always thought this album was massively underrated but there's loads of people here who love it!
Its insane how underrated this album is, insane riffs, choruses vocals drums solos bridge sections rythm patterns, not one second feels wasted or boring
Greatest Queens line-up, hands down.
everyone: if you haven't seen the live performance of song for the dead with dave grohl... you HAVE TO FUCKING WATCH IT. that's all i've got to say about that.
Discovered them opening for RHCP on their By the Way Tour. Melted my face, still the most impactful opening act of my life.
Yall should give Royal Blood a listen killer bass drum duo
saw qotsa live recently and they closed the show with songs for the dead. rocked my shit so hard it's been my favourite from this album ever since
man i loved this album i was staying in san diego at the time and crossed the border into mexico even though we werent supposed to ((military) listening to this album start to finish
every QOTSA album is a banger.
Kyuss - Blues For The Red Sun is the epitome of desert rock to me.
This is epic, one of the featuring artists in this album on some songs (Six Shooter, Gonna Leave You, Make it wit chu) is guitarist Dean Ween. You guys should react to Ween’s 1997 album The Mollusk, especially if you guys are into alternative like QOTSA and Tool
I really recommend you to hear Soundgardan's album "Superunkown", with of the best voices in rock history, Chris Cornell.
Also I think you would love The Smashing Pumpkins "Siamese Dream".

How has nobody commented about bro progressively becoming Adam from the book of Genesis in the first minute
Licking toads and listening to QOTSA goes hand in hand
Please react to an Elliot smith album, similar to Jeff Buckley but much more folk influence, love your videos!
This specific line up doing this at Glastonbury is my fav 'supergroup' performance.
Rated R is less 'mainstream' but equally as brilliant.
The first album is incredible too.
I know you guys probably have a lot of albums lined up for the future, but based off one of your last polls, I would love it if you react to Disintegration and Vulgar Display of Power
Personally love lullabies to paralyze, but honestly any other album of QotSA will do! Great video love to see more :)
Y'all are like the bro version of Beavis and Butthead... and I think I'm here for it 😆
fun fact: this album was recorded days after 9/11
You should def check out Kyuss, the first band of Josh
This band is beyond tremendous and deserves more recognition and reactions 🤘🏽Josh Homme the 🐐 for real.
You guys gotta check out Smashing Pumpkins you’ll love em. Siamese Dream or Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, they’re both absolutely unreal
Acid Bath is a band you two should seriously consider looking into. I’m not sure how into metal you both are, but they only released two albums while together and you will never hear music like it anywhere. You should give them a reaction, regardless whether you’ll like them or not.
HELL YEAH THEY SHOULD TRY ACID BATH
Absolutely love this album, the entire desert road trip vibe makes it so fun to listen to.
The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails is also a fantastic album! Was excited to hear you guys mention that too, 100% worth a listen!
Dave Grohl rocking the drums!
Mr. Bungle - California
Don’t do any research, just throw it on and let it take you away. Legitimately one of the best albums ever crafted.
Great fucking choice man! The self titled one is awesome too.Disco Volante is wild as shit but I don’t think they are ready for that one yet.
Chak-chak-chak chaka-chaka-chaka chaka-chaka-chaka

PLEASE do Lullabies to Paralyze and Era Vulgaris too!!
Would love to see a reaction to some Ben Folds Five (or Ben Folds solo stuff)

Amazing Album. Shout out to Nick Oliveri, he killed it on this Album.
Like Clockwork is their best. Hope you check it out!
Listen to Bob Dylan’s “Blood on the Tracks”! Great videos 🤘
Y'all gotta listen to the first two Oasis albums, and The Verve's Urban Hymns. All classics.

Shit, well im going to be lateralusing this one

For the lateralus reaction I finished the album for the first time in the middle of premiere
That happened again

You Should Really react to the live album "Stop Making Sense" By: Talking Heads, it's fuckin' amazing!!!! Listen to this and you will not be disappointed!
can we get a reaction to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco?
Another great video and reaction. You guys definitely gotta react to Appetite For Destruction - Guns N Roses another Classic! Do you guys plan on doing a reaction to that album in the future?
Yall have to listen to era vulgaris that also has a lot of bangers

Them crooked vultures - self titled
“Sounds like sex to me” haha, yep and drugs
I went to th3 QotSA live in Brisbane Australia. They were incredible. Better then red hot chilli peppers or foo fighters live (from my experiences)
Like clockwork is defenitely a must listen for you guys. It's QOTSA's peak.
Era vulgaris is also quite fun and different, might be worth a listen as well, but like clockwork is their best
First it giveth is about with drugs do first they kick ass and you're all about them and they get you feeling awesome and then it takes more and more and that is becomes a horrible horrible situation
Queens is definitely Stoner Rock adjacent. Get lost in the fuzz!
I think you guys would love:
hail to the king by avenged sevenfold
First it giveth then it taketh away… … drugs. It’s all about drugs.
Burning Manish n Grohl just hits different. Harder n concise as a mutha fkkr.
Homme has some of the best lyrics and this album is no different than the others in that department, so I disagree with not paying attention to them but this is your guys first listen so I get if you just want to immerse yourselves in the vibe, it's a fuckin killer vibe.
😂😂😂 these dude bros acting wild whilst drinking girls drinks 🤣 good album though
How baked are ya'll getting before listening to these albums? hahahaha
If not then you should, would make the video even more enjoyable
SOAD next pls !!
Tom Petty, Wildflowers please.
PLEASE listen to Siamese dream my the smashing Pumpkins. very ethereal, grungey, dreamy album. their best for sure
Go with the flow. Easily the best track.
I wonder, how much of that sugar ended up inside the thousand bugs that ate you up while recording this? XD That's one way to exterminate them, I guess.
