The piano-driven “The Vampyre of Time” and the closing title track take the biggest detours, venturing into rock opera grandeur. “I Sat By the Ocean” and “Smooth Sailing” chug along spewing a greasy trail of ’70s boogie exhaust. It’s ambitious and meticulously assembled, seamlessly stacking leather-clad swagger with refined elegance. And …Like Clockwork satisfies on so many levels. While Homme has always sought to please himself, there’s something for everyone in his music-even uppity rock snobs and downcast rock slobs. It doesn’t hurt that, as one of the few remaining rock bands from the pre-blog age, QOTSA established themselves before everyone got so damn fickle. It also might be the first rock release of the dystopian blog-eat-blog era capable of recapturing the idea of music as a shared experience-that is, there are a lot of people waiting to get their ears in it. It’s arguably the best QOTSA record to date (this coming from someone who loves Rated R and Songs For the Deaf). It helps their case that, perhaps with the exception of 2007’s Era Vulgaris, QOTSA haven’t put out a bad album.īut it’s the Queens’ sixth LP …Like Clockwork-their first in six years, and their first for Matador-that plays a big part in this supposition of mine. Mostly, though, those records came out at a time when there really wasn’t a whole lot for rock fans to be excited about. They made their name with 2000’s Rated R, and a couple years later with the more ambitious Songs For the Deaf-records that are heavy, smart and tuneful (and also led to the band getting unfairly slapped with the goofy “stoner rock” tag). It may be premature to put Queens of the Stone Age in with those bands, but if I were a betting man I’d put my money on Josh Homme and company being well on their way. Without overthinking it, you might get Sabbath, Queen, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Nirvana-bands that are essential to the heavy-rock continuum, and whose appeal at some point transcended… well, everything. That is, unless, you count the Foo Fighters. No sign-up required.When you think of Herculean bands in the post-Zeppelin age-rock bands that’ve not only satiated critics and conquered radio, but have in the process permanently etched their inimitable logos into rock and roll history books-you might have to go back a ways. ✅ Secure, encrypted servers for privacy.Like Clockwork ZIP or RAR, MP3 or FLAC format music.
