Fun fact: Dave Grohl's drumming was tracked in 2 different takes for every song on the album: one take with just cymbals and hi-hats, and another take with everything else. This method makes for more frantic drum patterns and fills across many of the songs!

[@HenritheHorse]

I'm about to use the same recording technique, because I don't have enough mics for my set. Makes easier to mix and blend the cymbals.

[@blipbobeep8345]

Josh Homme did No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain some years ago- a bitter sweet episode, where they spent a number of days roaming around, eating, drinking tequila, talking philosophy, driving cool cars, and creating a soundtrack for the episode up in the high desert. Two of my favorite men in one place. I highly recommend it.

[@zaooo]

Series 7, episode 13 if anyone's looking.

[@rollorescue1582]

It's interesting that once you know that the drums and cymbals are recorded separately (presumably to help punch up the drums to get that wide snare sound without the cymbals getting too loud), you can tell that the mixing engineer really pulled the drums up in the mix to feature that driving beat by Dave. One of my all time favorite songs.

I adore this Queens album, and when I first heard this track it was so absolutely new to me. Alien and new, and I had never heard anything like it before. After you experience it once, that's it, but watching you let me live that vicarious first time once again in a certain sense. Bassist on this album is Nick Oliveri, his own band Mondo Generator did some great songs - I personally love the Lanegan tune "Four Corners".

[@seandoyle6029]

I would recommend "A vampyre of time and memory" or "I appear missing" by queens as well. They are both really emotional and beautiful tunes. Keep doing what your doing Geebz, I'm loving it🤙🤙

[@monitordown]

The bass player is Nick Oliveri, who actually has lead vocals on a couple tracks off this album. He was kicked out of the band afterward for being too much of a psycho, but in a high-road move he praised the band’s next release even though he was probably a little bitter for not being involved in it. I don’t know him beyond QOTSA, but he is definitely a rad musician.

Eric Valentine was the producer and engenier on this album, he started a youtube chanel last year, and explains how he recorded some albums, he had a really long video on this album that was great, but the band asked him to pull it down. Talking about the bass tone, it was very interesting, they recorded some overdubs with a small transistor 8" speaker cheap guitar combo, with volume maxed to distort and mixed that sound in with an ampeg i think it was, and got this great sound. Thy did a lot of experimentation to get good sounds on that album!

Nick Oliveri! What a lineup it was ... I remember when this record came out, they toured to my country (NZ) as part of a big festival, they were slotted in the late afternoon on the main stage, and the set was destroyed by technical difficulties - they walked off, but played later on one of the side stages for about and hour and a half when everyone else was done, well after closing time. They only got off the stage after being told to get off, and then doing three encores to a crowd which was damn near ready to riot if they shut it down. The crowd was frothing; crazy, crazy energy - best gig of my life (I've seen Tool live three times).

One part about Josh Homme's guitar playing style is how much of the polka he learned as a kid still finds its way in. Especially here. He grew up in a small town so the only dude who taught guitar only played polka. So as a result his style grew to be unlike anything I've ever heard.

[@VIVISECTVID86]

Bass was Nick Oliveri, no longer with the band (fired). He has been in multiple projects with the singer/guitarist Josh Homme, including a very freaking awesome band called Kyuss. I believe Josh and Nick were the principal song writers for this album and Nick also provides a lot of both backup and lead vocals on the album as well. Kyuss is way more stoner rock, Josh Homme writes some seriously killer riffs in all his projects. Nick unfortunately may suffer from the classic rock n roll "excesses" and that abuse led to a confrontation with Josh, apparently also involved a woman so you can get the idea of how that relationship ended up.

[@BillCoz]

A cool thing that QotSA do when they record drums, including with Dave Grohl on this song, is that each drum & cymbal, or combos of certain drums and cymbals in the kit are performed and recorded separately so there's no "bleed through" between mics on the kit. That gives certain drums/cymbals a unique "isolated" sound, and a different "expression" to the fills. Grohl has talked about how difficult it actually was to perform and record with QotSA.

Fun fact. Josh Homme (frontman from QOTSA) was the guitarist in Kyuss. And is also 1/3rd of them crooked vultures.

[@airbrushaaron666]

Hey Geebz, love this band, Josh Homme is a stoner rock legend, and obviously Dave Grohl, Dr. G, is made entirely of win and fresh pots. If you get a chance in your free time, check out Them Crooked Vultures - Fresh Pots it's hilarious, peace bro

Bass player was Nick Oliveri (left the band after this album). Current bass player is Mikey "Shoes" Shuman and he is amazing as well.

It would absolutely be a super long vid, but on the side of Dave Grohl, you should definitely check out his EP entitled _"Play"._ Everything done by him and it is a 20+min song split into 4 main segments. Would seriously recommend it to anyone interested in longer instrumentals!

Yes! So good!

[@ambercasley8080]

I think we saw you the other day when driving our horrible neighborhood road! Such a small world, love your channel

[@PHBlair84]

"Millionaire" and "Song for the Dead" need to happen next.

[@joebluhm]

I completely love how much you are biting into this. Thanks.... as a fan, thanks.

"The Evil has Landed". It's like a reincarnation of Zeppelin.

[@cbfpropertyservices]

❤ love that whole album. Villains.

[@semihrodrigue8579]

Agreed. When I first heard that song my initial thought was "Is that John Paul Jones playing the bass?" Turns out it's good old Mikey Shoes.

Dave's tight energie playing is mindblowing and one of a kind. The production, tone and mix of the song and the album is just masterful. Nice reaction! I'm a drummer and having great fun playing this live and in the rehearsals. And hope it is soon that we can go loooosseee, Alohaaaaa

[@nativeeats8719]

Nothing more fun than watching my wife drunk air drum to this song it is part of our DNA now lol

[@josephlevey8182]

Love Qotsa, They definitely evolved a lot over the years. Some great songs that I think are representative of their eras. "Avon", "Monster's in the Parasol", "First it Giveth", "Little Sister", "Misfit Love", "Smooth Sailing". Related groups and songs to check out Kyuss "One Inch Man", Dessert Sessions "Crawl Home", and Them Crooked Vultures "Gunman".

Dave Grohl is a massively underrated drummer IMO. Go with the flow is pretty epic but this whole album was is amazing.

[@andrewmurphy5310]

I think most people rate him pretty highly.

[@clairash2004]

@@andrewmurphy5310 people who know who he is, absolutely but in my experience, sadly not as many people as you'd think, know who he is.

[@hoff0839]

I love that the band photo has Dave and Mark who weren't ever really full members and Nick who is no longer in. This was my favorite lineup tho.
