I know what you're thinking: What am I talking about? Smokey gets plenty of love! Of course, he does. But only for one thing (singing), when he's so good at two (singing and songwriting). When pop pundits start naming the all-time great songwriters of the rock & roll era, how likely are they to list him right up where he belongs, alongside John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Burt Bacharach and Hal David, Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, Jerry Goffin and Carole King, Elton John and Bernie Taupin, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Leonard Cohen, Bob [...]

Las animaciones creadas para las canciones del último disco de Queens Of The Stone Age, realizadas por el artista Boneface , podrían convertirse en una película de larga duración. Se rumora que estudios de cine se han acercado a la banda y a Boneface para llegar a acuerdos acerca de una posible película. Además se sugieren nombres como Quentin Tarantino o Tim Burton para dirigirla, y que aprezcan algunos de los que colaboraron en el álbum como Dave Grohl, Elton John y Alex Turner . El disco [...]

For his edition of Mass Appeal's "Off the Wall" interview series, Lunice dug into many things that you might not have realized, like how breakdancing and beatboxing helped build his curiosity and make him start producing. He runs down his best and worst tour moments, his first job (Dairy Queen!), and his dream collaboration, which [...]

So we were surfing Legitmix.com and found this great DJ Earworm jam. Being fans of Lemon Jelly and Elton John (Don't judge, you judger) we found this dreamy kick back tune perfect for our Friday. Now you can score the tune on Legitmix! The San Francisco-based DJ Earworm is best known for his annual United State of Pop (USOP), a 3-4 minute mashup he creates using short snippets of the years top 25 songs.

We bet that the 132nd most acclaimed album of all time will shoot down your plane, and it'll take a couple vodka and limes to set you on your feet again. Counterbalance hunts the horny-backed toad with Sir Elton's 1973 blockbuster. Klinger: In the past, we've spent a good amount of time talking about the double album, and we've broken them down into two basic categories: the Grand Artistic Statement and the Pile. Your Grand Artistic Statements showcase an artist who is trying to create a larger narrative (Tommy) or immerse the listener in an overall mood (Exile on [...]
"…Like Clockwork" no es una pieza pop en el sentido de composición, es su obra más artística hasta la fecha, un trabajo alejado de sus predecesores que contenían canciones distantes entre sí; un disco que funciona muy bien si se escucha completo, un regreso al objeto llamado álbum.

This morning before even bedaubing my face with features, I set out for the first tube of the week. Destination: Liverpool Street, and on to Rough Trade. I stared at a queue some 150 strong through bleary, and indeed disbelieving eyes before defeatedly trudging back to bed thoroughly deflated. And better believe you me when I say that If I Had A Tail , it would at that point have been firmly tucked in between my legs where it'd still be stashed to this moment, without doubt. It's a testament not only to the calibre of Josh Homme's homies' [...]
Queens of the Stone Age turn back the clock to make their best album since Songs for the Deaf. Matador, 2013 8.0 / 10 While working on touring for their reissued self-titled debut,...
Six years. I still can’t believe it has been six years since Era Vulgaris was released. In some ways, this wait didn’t seem that long because Josh Homme released Them Crooked Vultures with Dave Grohl and the bassist of some band called Led Zeppelin. He also pretty much toured non-stop with them and Queens since 2007. In ... The post Album Review: QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE ...Like Clockwork appeared first on Metal Injection .

Desde que anunciaron que estaban trabajando en un nuevo disco, Queens Of The Stone Age han sido generosos en cuanto a adelantos del trabajo: canciones presentadas en vivo , teasers , sesiones para radios e interesantes videos animados . A menos de una semana de su lanzamiento oficial …Like Clockwork ya está disponible en streaming para ser escuchado de forma entera. El lanzamiento oficial está previsto para el próximo 3 de junio y hay varias razones para prestarle especial [...]
Adventurous, ambitious and sexy - ...Like Clockwork, the sixth album of the Queens Of The Stone Age needs to be explored carefully. But it's worth the risk The post Queens Of The Stone Age - ...Like Clockwork appeared first on Nothing But Hope And Passion - NBHAP - Music Magazine & more .

HBO’s Behind the Candelabra , Steven Soderbergh ’s highly anticipated biopic on Liberace , debuted this past weekend to much critical fanfare, with many critics praising Soderbergh for approaching his subject with a modicum of humanity (as opposed to mean-spirited camp). Although Liberace never openly pined to be taken seriously, we think he’d appreciate the film’s attempt to go behind the caricature and laud him for his ivory-tickling talents. Not to mention his other talents, demonstrated mostly on lover Scott Thorson, played by Matt Damon . In the spirit of reviving all things Lee, [...]

The end of May brings a welcome break from the barrage of patio brunch and festy pics that signal the arrival of spring on Instagram. According to my calculations, 100% of the people I know attended a graduation ceremony this past weekend, treating us all to rare glimpses into their family life with photos of wide-eyed little brothers and sisters ready to take the world by storm (once they sober up). But when I think of the senior year that set the course for my life, it's not college that comes to mind. It was four years earlier, [...]
Queens of the Stone Age have just released a 1:50 minute animated video preview for “Kalopsia,” the second such release from their upcoming album ... Like Clockwork . “Kalopsia,” which features a vocal spot from Trent Reznor, picks up where the first release “I Appear Missing” left off but follows new characters in a menacing post-apocalyptic setting. The track is dreary and haunting until about 1:20, when it kicks into true QOTSA heavy gear. Watch it above. Keep an eye out for …Like Clockwork [...]
It's all ears on Homme at the minute as the, well, homme and his fellow rabble-rousers continue to unleash bits and pieces from Queens of the Stone Age's forthcoming sixth full-length recording ...Like Clockwork and having already bestowed My God Is The Sun , and both I Sat By The Ocean and If I Had A Tail upon ye we've now another from that infamous Studio Brussel session in the form of ruinous chugger Keep Your Eyes Peeled. An appositely disquieting listen, the clodhopping thud of a superbly guttural guitar forms the [...]
Alas, we're still awaiting enlightenment as to what collaborations between Josh Homme's ineffably badass desert-rock bruisers Queens of the Stone Age and the likes of Elton John and Jake Shears might sound like, although by 'eck did Brussels get it lucky this week as the distortion junkies swung by radio station StuBru to air a couple newbies from forthcoming sixth studio full-length ...Like Clockwork , along with a customary acoustic take on No One Knows. Up first, we've I Sat By The Ocean – a languid, roily work redolent of both Coffee and TV and Little Sister, and indeed [...]

After 12 years of Christmas albums, American songbooks and countless cover records, it's finally Time for Rod Stewart to release some original material. And it's exactly what you'd expect an album from a 68 year old man to be, albeit with a little more polish. Over the last 10 years or so, Stewart has made it abundantly clear that his days in rock 'n' roll days are over. Bowing out before the leather jacket and eyeliner became laughable allowed him to corner the [...]
