Erection In Dressing Room

Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf [2002]

group to speak today, Queens of the Stone Age - QOTSA henceforth - I have to speak of many other groups and we could say that they are a kind of unconventional supergroup beyond Josh Homme - guitarist, singer, frontman and puto amo - there is really no fixed membership, change over time, leaving their mark on the band's career and is now , which is great. The first group to be mentioned to understand is the QOTSA Kyuss - of which I spoke here - because it was after the dissolution of Kyuss when was this project. Each member of Kyuss went to a group - Screaming Trees Josh Homme, Nick Oliveri to The Dwarves, John Garcia formed Brother and Brant Bjork and played with Fu Manchu - but Josh Homme has always been an ass restless so it was not long before moving to form his own project and it called Matt Cameron, who take charge at the time of the drumsticks of Soundgarden, and together they recorded some demos that were the foundation stone of the cathedral music QOTSA are today.

The discography of the group itself is not very extensive, in thirteen years have been released five albums and some other things, but the interesting thing is if they have zillions thousand songs, but people who have gone through the group to do them. People like Mark Lanegan - Screaming Trees - Rob Halford - Judas Priest - Trent Reznor - Nine Inch Nails - Julian Casasblancas - The Strokes - and, of course, deserves a special mention giant Dave Grohl - Nirvana former leader of Foo Fighters - which on this album that I bring you again today to deal with the battery and does an excellent job, I I would say the peak of his career as a drummer. At least that is worth a listen.

This album, entitled Songs for the Deaf , arguably the best known, but recently may have had more impact on Era Vulgaris, but I chose it because I think is the most genuine and of course because Nick Oliveri was still part of the group - Josh Homme of QOTSA began to Olivieri in 2004 - and personally I think is that Oliveri QOTSA without losing much, but at the end of the Josh Homme can do you leave balls because who take take take and who take everything he touches turns to gold. The style? Well sounds like QOTSA QOTSA could not compare with any other group. Are stoner like Kyuss and such? For a bit, are much more than that, but the only way that you can understand yourself is to listen comparéis disk and previous work with this bunch of monsters for you to see the excellent and very original mixture of styles that takes place. The record

can find the most famous of the group, the true classics such as No One Knows, Go With the Flow or First it Giveth or themes in the style of Oliveri as You Think I Is not Worth a Dollar But I Fell Like a Millionaire or Six Shooters, pure adrenaline. Of course, we must also mention the incredible work that Grohl on drums makes the song A Song for the Dead in particular, which shows that what Nirvana did was touch the balls and that's really a great drummer. The album closes with the beautiful Mosquito Song acoustic song and that ends one of the best and most interesting albums of our time. Health.
