Wow, that was tight. After all these years, this band is still amazing to watch.

They kinda stole that song title from Silverchair though 🤣

[@ruimsilva95]

the definition of sounding tight it's this video. No tricks, no computer crap, just pure practice and mastery of being together in the song. No wonder Dave Grohl says they are the best sounding live band in the world.

[@arddermout6946]

and noise reduction pedals

[@colefisher4010]

i think Between The Buried and Me would compete for that crown. Best sounding live band I've heard yet. They have some live videos that sound almost tighter than studio and I mean it. I loved seeing QOTSA in Toronto it was a nice sounding show. I also wasn't a fan of the venue however.

[@MathieuLaflamme]

No need to discredit electronic music to appreciate this. Music can have many forms.

[@ruimsilva95]

Didn't try to. What I meant by "computer crap" is autotunes used for performance (not creative) purposes, no playback for instruments or backing tracks for performance aid. This is authentic, that's what I meant. No disregard for electronic artists! Sorry for the misunderstanding.@@MathieuLaflamme

[@MathieuLaflamme]

@@ruimsilva95 but what is authentic? Some might say that guitars and drums aren't authentic. Real authenticity is vocal I guess? We're eventually heading to AI generated music... I don't know how future generations will qualify that 🙂

[@leafbelly]

This is how you mix live music. Phenomenal sound and a great song.

What makes them truly great is the swing in their music. No other modern rock band has that.

I saw them in ATL as well. I got to meet them after the show!! Waited by the tour buses and got selfies with each of them, even got a selfie with Jesse. Josh and Troy signed my QOTSA shirt!

[@buluiz]

I love it when they release the studio version at its best, but then when you hear them play live, I love the shock of seeing them play even better! 🤘🏻

[@dkless101]

I saw them live and that is so true, I actually like the live version of this song better than the album. So good live!

100%; the album was great but to me it felt a bit like qotsa reaching that dreaded point of becoming a cover band of themselves... but listening ti then live changes everything; this is a delight to listen to and to watch

[@BackwoodsFilms]

I still remember seeing them back on their first tour, when they were traveling in a van and Josh was slinging their swag at the merch table. It's a completely different band now, but I'll always like 'em.

[@danhellavonstella]

Same! Was this when they toured in 2007? Saw them in a super small venue here and remember Josh selling merch as well.

[@justinmah9033]

Best band in the world! This band has carried me through every adversity in the last 10 years. Every single album tells its own story and depicts the evolution of Josh Homme’s life and the band. If you have just heard of them I urge that you explore the entire discography. Every song is a masterpiece. Seen them 10 years ago and can’t wait to see them again in Melbourne in February 2024!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@Jimmy1982Playlists]

Amen... they've carried me thru every adversity for over 20 years. Imo, the best band of all time. Every album is remarkable, and different from the last.

[@justinmah9033]

I only wished I discovered them sooner! My first exposure was the 'Like Clockwork' album and it completely changed my life. Been deep into the rabbit hole ever since and still discovering nuances and meaning to the songs even till today. @@Jimmy1982Playlists

Thank you for keeping rock alive Josh homme.

[@johnulcer]

Saw them front row in Philly this past summer (have some vids on my channel if anyone’s interested). I’m 35 and been a fan since I blind bought Lullabies the week it came out in 2005. It was utterly surreal to finally be seeing them live, much less to be mere feet from Joshua and directly in front of his mic for the entire gig. They were phenomenal live and it was one of the greatest shows I’ve ever been to.

[@stanharding-hill7057]

There's something very villain-esq about the way Josh looks

[@A.S.P.A.]

What an amazing album. One of the best live bands ever, clearly. Welcome back, boys 🙌🤘

[@Waldo2929]

That ending though!! Tightest band out there.

[@HLinc.]

I’ve watched this two dozen times already. This is peak QOTSA. One of the best LIVE sounding bands out there. If not the best.

[@tirzeh]

We just took our 3 kids ages 18-23 to see QOTSA this past Tuesday on 12-12 for our wedding anniversary and it wasn't the first time I've seen them but it was the best because our kids were all there with us. And they played I Wanna Make It Witchu and Little Sister which are my two favorite songs even though it's impossible to pick any favorites. 👑🕊️🤙🏼

I saw both The FF and the RHCP back in 2000 right after my oldest was born. To my kids being able to see all 3 bands in concert is the perfect musical trifecta lol.

Qotsa is the most solid modern rock band. Josh homme is good on meth or sober. Thank you for keeping me entertained for over 20yrs. Legit live set

[@mkultra5752]

Stolen title from a Silverchair song. Also the qotsa song 'I think I lost my headache' intro riff is stolen from the song 'freak' by Silverchair. Homme would probably never admit he was influenced by Silverchair but hey qotsa is still the better band and he is still the best rock guitar player in the last 20 years.

[@tylerhackner9731]

One of my favorites

[@chrisyorkster2447]
