The Queen of the Stone Age has been in the studio for quite some time, and have on numerous occasions teased both the fans and music publications about a forthcoming album.
The album, titled ".. Like Clockwork" has now been confirmed and snippets from the upcoming release can be heard on the QOTSA's website.
A possible June release has been reported by Antiquiet. But no set date or tracklist as of yet. Foo Fighters Dave Grohl have recorded drums for the album as we await the announcement of a drummer for the forthcoming tour. Other guests apperances include Elton John, Trent Reznor, Mark Lanegan, Nick Oliveri and Jake Shears of Scissor Sisters
Read. I guess, if Elton John, why not the Scissor sisters as well?
We've also learnt that two other high-profile names have been added to the feature list, Alex Turner (from Arctic Monkeys) and James Lavelle (from UNKLE). The new drummer, Jon Theodore, is going on tour with the band. Theodore played for The Mars Volta, so I don't think we need to worry he wouldn't be up for the task.
Listen to the studio version of My God is The Sun below!
It has been leaked. It is awesome. And I will still be buying it on the release date. QotSA are the best. If Josh stops making music I will kill myself. The end.
Love the song Like Clockwork. It really rocks!
erm no? its very slow and boring tbh. rather listen to smooth sailing
it doesn’t rock in the slightest. it’s slow boring and forgettable
“Keep Your Eyes Peeled”: Probably the weakest opening track for a Queens record I’ve heard yet. Overall kind of underwhelmed by this effort.
that song is awesome. you’re crazy
Songs 2-4 have been on repeat for me – I can’t get deeper into the album because I crave going back. Those 3 songs, instant favorites…

This album is amazing!! I just hope all of you fans out there (and everyone else) is only using this for getting an advance listen to this music and still buy the album. I for one bought all three vinyls and the cd and am paying to download online. Let’s face it, if we want these guys to keep making this music, we have to pay for it!!!!!
would It be better to purchase the album outright or make a donation directly to the band? I know record sales help keep bands employed but with purchasing an album the record company and others all get a piece where as a donation is straight money in the hand.
Did a 320 link surface?
Really enjoying this album, best of the year (so far) for me.
A masterpiece.
7.5/10
Best songs are Smooth Sailing, If I had a tail, I appear missing, Keep your eyes peeled, My god is the sun.
The rest are okay but I would rank this album on par with Era Vulgaris.
Any hq yet?
I’m lovin’ it. It’s different… not at all what I would expect from QUOTSA. This album is… epic-ish. At least in atmosphere compared to other QUOTSA albums. It works!
This Album is the bomb I already hear it
The first minute of “If I Had A Tail” is awesome, the chorus isn’t so great, still my favorite from the album.
guys, just found a 320kbps/FLAC leak… FINALLY!! haven’t listened to the album yet, but oh my god, I’m so pumped!!
There seems to be some hq torrents up now. Don’t know about the actual quality though!

I’m not saying that someone should get me a dropbox link or something similar, but that’s exactly what you should PM me.
