Queens Of The Stone Age - ... Like Clockwork

NEW VINYL LP ON MATADOR 201

2 X 180 GRAM VINYL.

Like Clockwork contains Homme's most intense, personal and beautiful songwriting to date.  While the thunder of Queens past is still evident (especially in lead single "My God Is the Sun") there are a number of gorgeous ballads - meditations on time passing, the struggle to create art, and the nearness of mortality. The music lives up to the album's lyrical and conceptual ambitions, with some of Homme's finest guitar work to date, at times recalling past greats such as Brian May or George Harrison, at other times uniquely his own. The rhythm section starts and stops on a dime, and in some of the more complex songs, the ensemble playing is virtuosic - but never sterile. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queens_of_the_Stone_Age
