How to Handle a Rope / The Queens of the Stone Age Thread

How do you not find that bird charming?! Just look at him!

I'm just happy he does it for you, buddy.

Unacceptable. That bird is universally charming.

I expect the rest of this album will make my balls swing.

I respectfully disagree. But what does it matter what I think?

This isn't terrible or anything but perhaps I just don't like Josh's songwriting anymore ("anymore" in this case being at least a decade or more).

[epilogue]

Maybe it's just because I'm not all that familiar with their stuff. I don't know. I thought that song was a lot of fun. It's certainly not lighting my brain on fire or anything. But it's fun and groovy and catchy and something I can imagine myself returning to often.

Its a a nice change after the depressing, yet fantastic, Like Clockwork.

I loved lIke Clockwork. Thought it was solid songwriting. Era Vulgaris was pretty awful despite 2.5 great songs.

Im not a big fan of the idea of Ronson doing the new album. I dont get why Josh needs him and i saw this a big big fan of LC...im not a qotsa purist and this feels so polished and poppy is just boring.

[BurtReynolds]

I'm pretty much down for whatever they do.

I can see it appealing to the EODM faction of the Homme worshippers.

It's not a bad song, but it's not interesting and heavy in ways that QOTSA songs tend to be. I'm not super familiar with the other albums beyond the first three or four, but I can quickly tell that something's missing on this one.

There is still a sexy swagger here though.

You're not missing anything.

I dunno. I listened to Era Vulgaris today for the first time and can see myself reaching for it again. Yet that one seems pretty maligned among the fans so what do I know?

Make It Wit Chu and Sick, Sick, SIck are great songs.

Like Clockwork is top notch as well.

A lot of people seem to enjoy their last few records, so I wouldn't place too much stock in my opinion either. I don't even like Songs for the Deaf that much.

Duh. Fuck me. Dev's right. I am an idiot.

[epilogue]

Also, I've never listened to EODM. I like Them Crooked Vultures though.
