Queens Of The Stone Age reemerge from the desert newly scarred and somehow strangely prettier with lucky seventh album, 'Villains!'
Produced by Mark Ronson and co-produced by Mark Rankin and mixed by Alan Moulder, 'Villains' is the first full album offering from Queens Of The Stone Age since 2013's '...Like Clockwork,' which gave the band its first #1 album in Australia.
The sonic signatures of the lineup that took …Like Clockwork around the world and back — Founder/guitarist/vocalist/lyricist Joshua Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen (guitar, keys), Michael Shuman (bass), Dean Fertita (keys, guitar), Jon Theodore (drums) — are as unmistakable as ever, though coexisting with sufficient new twists to induce recurring double takes.
