This is from their latest facebook page update:
"So you guys its coming out for reals. proof. test press of the double LP QOTSA. back from homme's house, on the way to joe's house for a listen. it sounds sick. & btw all you wearing crabby pants over the the salt mine not coming out, it. is. not. our. fault. maybe one day itll "accidentally" leak on line. justsyn. but only if youre nice"
There is a picture of a white LP cover with just QOTSA on the front. Tried posting the pic, but it wouldn't work. Apparently, and I may be behind the times here, is this is a re-recording of their first record. Weird. Why waste time on re-recording? Just do a new album!!!
And the "salt mine" he is talking about, if you didn't know, is an unreleased live performance DVD that they recorded down in a German salt mine, 2300 feet below Earth's surface. But Interscope won't release it for some reason (not a priority). So he is teasing that it will leak. Cool.

and this is on top of the rated r re release??
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say
Honestly, re-recording of an old album could be awesome. I want Trent to redo Pretty Hate Machine in a bad way. If not re-record it, at least clean it up so it sounds shiney. i am sure the "die hards" will think that saying something like this is blasphemy but what if the artist was not able to make the album to their standards because of restricted access to equipment due to funding or technology then why not let them redo it?
Also, Eagles of Death Metal anyone? The bassist is being treated for cancer and hopefully everything works out with him but there was an announcement of a new album in the works so who knows whats going on with that.
Yea it's def the re-isse/re-master of self-titled, which I am very excited about. Now I can finally have my hands on a copy. I'll prolly get both CD and LP. Rumor is there will be some B-sides on it just like the Rated R deluxe CD which would be "Spiders and Vinegaroons" and "These Aren't the Droids You're Looking For" and "The Bronze"
There was an interview with Homme basically confirming this would be out by the end of the year/beginning of next. He also said they would be getting in the studio for new material after this is finished. 2011 should be a busy year in the world of QOTSA!!! :thumbup:

they threw us a curve ball by re-mastering Rated R recently
I just assumed they would remaster in order
cant wait for this jem to be (re)released
QOTSA kick serious ass
QOTSA kicks ass indeed! Second favorite band of all time. Too bad they don't tour enough in the states, let alone the east coast. Word is the release date will be end of november. So far it's a deluxe re-issue just like Rated R. B-sides and live performances I'm sure! Just hoping it gets a vinyl release too!

yah...they're deff. in the top 5 for me
dud u see them at Lupos on the Era Vulgaris tour?
what a kick ass show that was...hoping they come back there...tho I wouldnt be surprised if they're banned from that venue....I have never seen crowd surfing/moshing in such a small venue...im sure the staff was surprised as hell...good times...gotta love mezzanine seating
I unfortunately haven't seen them live yet :oops:
I NEED to see these guys live soon. I've been watching videos of the Brian O'Conner Benefit show and it makes me so jealous. Every year it seems they get better and better live. Homme is just mesmerizing on stage. Luckily I did get to see TCV at the Roseland in February front row right in front of JPJ!

where is the Roseland? Im so freakin jealous!!!! I woulda killed to see TCV....glad that side project isnt completlely interfering w/ QOTSA tho.... I think TCV should open for QOTSA - Josh could handle it...
that being said, anything Josh touches turns to Gold!!!
heard the newest Artic Monkeys CD? I gotta say, i wasnt much into them on the first two, but Josh produced (and it sounds like highly influenced) that record...its worth a listen if you love Josh.
Roseland Ballroom is in NYC. It was an amazing show! The extended version of Scumbag Blues was the biggest highlight for me. Interlude with Ludes was amazing live, it gave me a whole new appreciation for that song.
I haven't heard the new artic monkeys yet but I gonna check it out right now. If it has any Homme influence I'm sure I'll love it.

Easily one of my top 5 albums ever.
I actually have the original Man's Ruin pressing on red vinyl. It's awesome!!!
I think I've owned at least 2 copies of this CD...one of which warped on the dashbord of my car...and the 2nd of which is virtually unplayable due to the amount of hours I've logged listening to this album at full blast over and over and over in my car.
So it will be good to get another copy on CD.
Hopefully the B-Sides will be enough to justify buying this on Vinyl so I don't have to play Man's Ruin copy.
It'd be great to have
The Bronze
These Aren't The Droids You're looking For
And maybe...18ad, Infinity, or the original Born To Hula on Vinyl !!
I just went from six to midnight
Where exactly did you see this on the QOTSA site?? I don;t see it :(

Should be a great few months for us Queens of the Stone Age fans! They also mentioned something about internet leak of the Salt Mine DVD on their facebook page! What a great setlist that was!

indeed
ive seen parts of it on youtube
and anyways, can you really go wrong w/ a QOTSA setlist?
I mean, the only song I can think of that Im not huge on is Battery Acid
Out of all the music they have, one song not loved isnt that bad
I actually found and purchased a copy at an FYE store about 4 or 5 years ago. On it was a sticker that says...
COLLECTORS ITEM.
The record you hold in your mitts is one from the legendary LOST PALLET. The mystery has finally been solved: The CD's were discovered in a government warehouse in Seattle right next to the Lost Ark of the Covenant. This is one of the final remaining 8,000 of the original pressing. Brought to you by RekordsRekords. "Nobody brings our music to you better than we do & that's our promise."
...I was surprised to find it but didn't realize how rare it really was. Glad I bought it, that's for sure. The re-issue thing is cool but I'd be more interested in a new album with all new material.
Not to be a downer but I thought Era Vulgaris pretty much sucked (save a few songs),...the best ones are self titled, Songs for the Deaf and Lullabies To Paralyze.
Hope to hear a new one soon.

this is true...disappointing for some
mainly for us freaks who scour the web in search of rare and unreleased shit
have tons of b-sides, live shows, Desert Sessions, etc.
if u can imagine..not all people have figured out how to use the web to their benefit
so for some it will feel like "new" stuff
and for others (like us) we can only hope its a better or cleaner version of what we already have...
what I usually do when I find b-sides and scrapped songs online, I'll just add them to the end of the album they were related to on my ipod...so i guess some of us are just spoiled
personally, im just glad this is happening b/c i feel the self titled needed the remaster more than Rated R
and having TCV around has posed questions as to the continuation of Queens...so its nice to know they arent ready to stop...ive only seen the Queens once live and Im hoping that it wasnt the only time I will ever see them
I thought I was the only one who did that! I do that with PJ songs too! Binaural has 24 tracks on my iPod!

JH seems to love being busy (probably why he and Dave Grohl get along so well), I can't see him ever stopping Queens. It's his own solo vehicle/outlet, and I love it. I love TCV too. I really would love to see them live. I've seen Queens several times, but seeing JH with Dave and JPJ on the same stage would make my head explode.

The bonus tracks are amazing though. I play "Never Say Never" atleast five times a day. Born to Hula is also just incredible!
I love Era Vulgaris but it is their weakest album. I'd rank my favorite Queens albums as:
1.Self TItled
2. Rated R
3. Songs for the Dead/ Lullabies (Love them both the same!)
5. EV
2008: MSG I, MSG II, Newark(EV)
2009: Albany 1-2(EV), Philly 3
2010: Boston, MSG I

2016: MSG 1, MSG II, Fenway 1
do it w/ Radiohead too
we're not alone...i just keep telling myself that
Back to Queens tho...personally...why dont they just merge the two bands (Queens & Vultures)? Vultures open for Queens
lol
this is mine
Tied: Rated R/Lullabies
Tied: Self Titled/Songs for the Dead
Last: Era Vulgaris
Songs for the Dead would be higher for me if there werent so many radio clips/weird lady talking btw. each song...I feel like im constantly skipping through that shit when i play it.
Either way...i dont know why i just did that
I really hate lists
and I just remembered that Im at work right now, so yah...i should probably do something...Ive been here (at work and on the board) for 2 hrs now :oops:
later bitches :wave:
1) QOTSA
2) Foo
And to a lesser extent Wolfmother. PJ is my "deep" band. Except for Backspacer of course.

it just never really caught on for me
I like it if i hear it
I like the Colour and the Shape
but it just doesnt really do it for me
I like Grohl on drums the best
and coffee

edit: damnit here i am again, not working
I love that about Songs for the Dead. It's a concept album which I think is cool. Just a fun joy ride through the desert!! :twisted:
A merger between TCV and QOTSA would be great! Grohl is a great drummer but I like joey just as much. They are both beasts behind the kit! Maybe switch out Mikey Shoes for JPJ although I like Mikey Shoes too. I wish they would let him sing more of Nick's songs. He has a scream just like Nick
