Praise for In Times New Roman…
“Proves the group’s enduring power with plenty of electrifying moments.”– The Wall Street Journal
“Only one band can make fonts sound cool and that’s Queens of the Stone Age”
– Associated Press
“Direct and hard-rocking…Homme’s songwriting has grown increasingly personal and vulnerable. Never more so than now” – Revolver
“A record that’s defiantly, quintessentially, Queens… a potent, heavy distillation of everything the group have done” – Uncut Magazine, 9/10
.
Queens of the Stone Age release their highly anticipated eighth album In Times New Roman… on Matador / Remote Control Records.
Paper Machete’ is an instantly identifiable QOTSA future classic, sure to resound with casual fans and die hards alike. Lyrically, ‘Paper Machete’ finds Josh Homme’s trademark rapier wit at its most acerbic. If the previously released ‘Carnavoyeur’ signaled resignation and acceptance, ‘Paper Machete’ is the collision of sheer, raw force that gets you there– “like electricity conveyed through the bristles of a paintbrush” (Wall Street Journal).

“Thematically, ‘Carnavoyeur’ seems to reckon with life’s natural ebbs and flows, finding power in accepting the things that can’t be changed: ‘When there’s nothing I can do, I smile,’ vocalist Josh Homme sings in a darkly sweet croon, sounding equal parts sinister and restrained as he watches the world around him turn to dust,” says Consequence, an apt description of the song as much as it is for the just-released Liam Lynch-created/directed video.

Last night the band hosted a MIDNIGHT CLUB at Utopia Records Sydney featuring giveaways, exclusive merch (including a limited edition glow in the dark vinyl), and signed merchandise amongst appropriate levels of bacchanalia.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
