    this album is ridiculously awesome. can not wait to hear my god is the sun live. that shits gonna be mental.

    Saw them at Lollapalooza in Chile in April. That was the only new song they played, but yea, it was awesome.

    Got tickets to see them in Pittsburgh, Cincy and Columbus.

    I hate to say it, I don't think PJ can match it, Like Clockwork is that good.

    I'm pretty late to the table with this album, but DAMN this is good. I hope 'Lightning Bolt' will be as good as this.

    Ok, Queens fans, list your top 3 songs from each album...

    This album is taking my fandom to new heights. Always liked them, but now am paying more attention.

    Never really listened to their first one, lullabies, or era vulgaris and am curious what folks think of those records...

    This is definitely tough, but I'll give it a go!!!

    1.) S/T Album = You Can't Quit Me Baby, If Only, The Bronze
    2.) Rated R = In The Fade, Tension Head, Better Living Through Chemistry
    3.) Song for the Deaf = Millionaire, God is in the Radio, Song for the Dead
    4.) Lullabies = Tangled Up In Plaid, Someone's In The Wolf, Burn the Witch
    5.) Era Vulgaris = Into The Hollow, Make It Wit Chu, Misfit Love
    6.) ...Like Clockwork = I Sat By The Ocean, Fairweather Friends, If I Had A Tail

    You need to stop what you are doing and go listen to the first album immediately. Definitely their best!

    holy shit...

    I just landed 2 tickets to the pre-lolla show at the metro...

    problem is, i only got 2 tickets and 5 buddies who want in... :fp:
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    This is very tough ... Here's my take, and I want to add that Lullabies is the album that first sucked me into them. I love the whole album, it is very hard to choose three. I Never Came must be something like my favourite of all songs.

    1.) Lullabies to Paralyze = I Never Came; You Got a Killer Scene there, Man; Skin on Skin
    2.) S/T = You can't quit me, Baby; Regular John; You Would Know
    3.) Era Vulgaris = I'm Designer; The Fun Machine Took A Shit And Died; Misfit Love
    4.) Rated R = Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret; Monsters In The Parasol; I Think I Lost My Headache (Better Living Through Chemistry gets an honorable mention here)
    5.) SFTD = No One Knows; God Is In The Radio; Millionaire
    6.) ...Like Clockwork = Smooth Sailing; If I Had A Tail; The Vampyre Of Time And Memory

    Well, well, that was fun :)
    I got a kick out of it when they played the Fun Machine at PJ20, I had been obsessed with that song before the festival :lol: Bam! There it was!

    Considered going to the Chi show too, but the fucking flights are too expensive. Now we're thinking of making the trip to Pittsburgh. It's on a Saturday and it's outside ... :think:

    If anyone has an extra for the lolla show at the Metro let me know. First show I'm missing since 2004 :cry:

    Fun Machine is one of my all time favorite QOTSA songs. Such an awesome Jam. Didn't know I could have considered that for Era Vulgaris or else I definitely would have. I would kill to see Fun Machine! I about took a shit and died when I saw they played it at PJ20. Still angry at myself for not dropping the cash on that AMAZING weekend.

    I'll do my three favorite non-studio album songs:
    1.)Fun Machine Took a Shit and Died
    2.) Infinity (On Lullabies, but Japanese version only)
    3.) 18 A.D.

    The beginning of Infinity (this version, my fave: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOMbBWbJlyc) is my current ringtone :D

    And it was awesome at PJ20. I was in London to see them the first time on May 17th 2011 and people sent me messages that they have been added to the PJ20 lineup and I didn't believe them haha ... Then I wanted to see them both days in the seated section and by the grace of a wonderful fellow tenclubber got seated tickets for my lawn night (they were even closer than my own for the first night). Loved it :mrgreen:

    I couldn't agree more. I simply can't wait to scream that entire part of that song when I see them.

    Yep, that is me too.

    So I was hearing and reading everywhere how amazing the new album is, gave it a chance and... OMG! I can't stop listening to it since then. Must be my favourite album of the year and last few years too.
    And I'm going to see them in Belfast in November, can't wait!
