New Music To Make Living Worthwhile
Well, here it is: the greatest supergroup of all time, as NME and Antiquiet report that Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme has joined forces with Dave Grohl and Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones. The trio is
currently in the studio working on what Homme’s wife, Brody Dalle of The Distillers, has deemed “Pretty fucking amazing…Just beats and sounds like you’ve never heard before.” There is no reason to doubt Dalle’s claims considering the band’s pedigree reads like a musical fantasy draft: take this generation’s most badass rock frontman, reunite him with the drummer from his magnum opus who also happened to have been in Nirvana and round out the roster with the bassist from Led Zeppelin. Epic.
Meanwhile, in other music news, Muse and the Arctic Monkeys have set release dates for the upcoming records, with Muse’s fifth album, The Resistance, set for September 14th, while the Arctic Monkeys’ Humbug (produced by Homme) is slated for release on August 25th. “Crying Lightening,” the first single from Humbug, is already out on iTunes.
