Glad people seem to be rating it. I too think its great, and the critics are rating it very highly too.
What for?I interviewed Josh Homme last week.
Just though I'd let that be known.
For the magazine I work for. He's gonna be on the cover. He was amazing. I've loved him since I was about 15 so it was pretty big.What for?
Thanks manCool interview
Well, I was a bit in awe! I do have a bit of tendency to revert to saying how amazing people are though, point taken. He was fecking amazing though. He slapped me on the arse and did the IT Crowd 'FATHEEEEER' thing. We're basically mates.Yeah, good interview mate. The build up was a bit, well, poncey (just a touch ) but I particularly liked the bit where you ask about Nick

that's how I get both my little boys to refer to me! Clenched fist and everything
Massively appreciate the feedback, I wouldn't have posted it on here if it wasn't a particularly massive moment for me. If I can get my kids to quote a classic sitcom at me one day I'll be a happy man. I might get them to call me Basil.Nice interview. Can we swap jobs?
Muse are horrible now.I think they developed much better than for example Muse did. And they still got it live, saw them twice this year and they blew me away both times!
My favorite album of 2013 without any doubt. I put it on shuffle with Songs for the deaf the other day and both albums blend together remarkably well in a combo shuffle.Was going to try and get to Bristol for Vista Chino on the 20th but I couldn't make it. Shame as Peace was a good record.
Nearly 6 months on and Like Clockwork is still holding up, impressive record.
Songs for the deaf is one of my favourite records ever so it doesn't really reach those heights for me, but still there isn't a bad track on it.M

That's the true QOTSA sound for me. As much as I like the new record, this new 'my god is the sun', Arctic Monkeys style sound isn't really a direction I'm liking all that much. The low bass and fuzzy riffs from the first record is pure desert rock, bridging them and Kyuss perfectly.Great gig last night in Dublin. The sound was a bit sludgy at times & it would've been nice to hear a track or two from their first album, but they're the only gripes I had with it.
Atomic hangover this morning. Spent the night in the Workman's Club listening to karaoke renditions of 80s hair metal and pop.

Yeah the first record is a favourite of mine too. Above Rated R but behind SFTD for me. Even the bonus tracks stand up really well.Their first is, and probably always will be, my favourite album of theirs. I don't think there's a dud track on it, really.
I still like their other albums and I'm glad they're not married to one particular sound, but that first album will always represent the best of the band.
And a little mention for Jon Theodore last night- he was tight the whole way through, but he was unbelievable during Better Living Through Chemistry. And the drum fills on No One Knows that Castillo struggled with, Theodore had no problems pulling off.
I was hoping for a new Vultures album first. This project must have pushed that back even more.Best band there is right now, although the SFTD lineup was the best version of it.
Cant wait for the next album after LC, that was a masterpiece.
