Secrets of Queens of the Stone Age: Part 2 - a podcast by Curiouscast

There are some bands that are very consistent with their sound—and fans love them for it…no two records are never exactlythe same, but whenever a new album is announced, we have a pretty good idea of what to expect…

And when we get into the album, there’s a sonic linearity to the songs…nothing wrong with that…Then there are bands who like to take chances, take risks, from record to record…the last thing josh homme and whatever his crew is in queen of the stone age want to do is repeat themselves…that requires not only imagination and creativity but guts…

But while they acknowledge that this approach can confuse people and maybe alienate fans from release to release, they also know that a certain percentage—a solid one at that—love that the band likes to use the curve ballHeck, it goes beyond that…we never know who’s gonna appear on a queens album…people in, people out, contributions here, contributions there…no wonder things change up all the time…

And then there are all the side projects that are different still…so, yesit’s confusing…and i think that’s exactly what josh likes…keep ‘em guessing… 

Let’s get deeper into all this with part two of “Secrets of Queens of the Stone Age”…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
