Songs For the Deaf is one of the last great hard rock albums of recent memory. It’s just bass, drums, guitar and plain ol’ OVERDRIVE. It saw Queens of the Stone Age capitalize on their unique position in rock, assembling a one-time-only, star-studded line up for a loose concept album: a drive through the blistering California desert.

Lullabies is a great record. Its one of those records that you can just put on, push play once, and let it play all the way thru. From top to bottom it's aces!! 😎🤓

[@Indonesiansurftravel]

Nah first three albums are the best, it all went down hill fast after Nick got kicked out as lost that edge..

[@normang3668]

I've never understood the hate for Lullabies to Paralyze. . . It's an amazing record in its own right, I just think it wasn't what a lot of fans of the band wanted or expected. I'm glad though that the fans at the very least seem to respect how good their touring lineup and live shows were from that era. At this point, I've sort of accepted that I'm not going to 'get it' right away with any new album they release, that I'll be left scratching my head for many years to come before I can fully appreciate each record for what it is. . . My inital reaction to Like Clockwork wasn't good, simply because I wanted a heavier record. I'm only just starting to realize how awesome Villains was, despite some flat sounding production on the record. Josh and company have never been afraid to get weird and go in varying artistic directions. . . I think having any expectations, is expecting too much.

[@SeanDish]

If you're gonna talk about ...Like Clockwork, you need to cover Lullabies too. I fully champion that album as the spiritual sequel to SftD and it needs to be looked at more then just the one front loaded Queens record

[@SeanDish]

@@jager9022 personally im still on the fence on if it's front loaded or not. However, I've seen the arguments that it is with most of the noteworthy songs all being at the front. I definitely do fuck with the latter half of the album, especially "Long Slow Goodbye", but I need to really listen to "The Blood is Love" through "You Got a Killer Scene"

[@SeanDish]

@James Schultz *Est.1982 again, im still on the fence if I agree or not with the consensus that it is front loaded. Like on one hand I'm not crazy for "Broken Box" or "You Got a Killer Scene", but I love "I Never Came" and "Long Slow Goodbye". It's just some view Lullabies as the front loaded queens record

While it’s not integral to the experience, one of the coolest things about this record is the pre-gap track before Millionaire. The Real Song for the Deaf. I used to love putting this CD in and rewinding from track 1 to get to it

[@blasterman5590]

Fun fact about that one: it was recorded by rubbing a set of balloons on microphones. If you play it loudly enough, you can easily feel the vibrations, enough so that it really is a song, for the deaf

...like clockwork will always hold a special place in my heart because it's the album that got me into Queens. Also the first record I ever bought, along with In Rainbows!

[@samm9397]

Two of my personal favorite records! Great album

[@normang3668]

Such a different perspective from my own on why Like Clockwork was special. . . There was a six year gap between Era Vulagris and Like Clockwork, where I desperately awaited a new record and worried if maybe that wait was indicative of Josh and the band having run out of ideas. . . The anticiaption was huge, and some of the teasers for the record were really intriguing. Even as a long time fan of the band, Like Clockwork has some of my favourite tunes. I would consider I Appear Missing one of the best songs the band ever created.

[@MMLCommentaries]

Fantastic work. I love how the video itself mirrors the record itself through your CLEAN visuals and the constant "station"-switching. It's an honor being one of the "stations" in this video. This is a snappier and tighter version of the video I wanted to make back in 2018; but it also has the unique elements that come through how you specifically executed upon it. Killer video as always.

Great tune for sure. I'd go with better living through chemistry as mine, definitely in my top 5

[@supramanx1997]

Just don't go telling people that... 🤭

[@jovanreid6782]

My favorite Queens song as well, which is why Rated R gets the favorite record rating on GP. I just find it maddening that no one ever seems to truly dissect the meaning behind Lost Art despite their love for it. I mean, is it just me, or is that song unquestionably about a sexual encounter with a transgender person? I've tried to interpret it in other ways but the aforementioned explanation when taking the lyrics into account is the only one that has fully ever made sense to me. (Add to that, Josh has been known to say the song is about anal sex before live performances). Please tell me what your take is (or has always been) on Lost Art.

[@fladification]

@@jovanreid6782 I never really put that much thought into the lyrics. I went and read them just refresh my memories and to me it could be about many things. The true magic of music is that no matter what the writer may have intended the meaning can be different for anyone and even change over time. For me originally the song was about a forbidden love. Reading it now it could be about that...most likely, or about hiding an embarrassing fetish but ultimately I think it's about trying to keep a secret you'd hurt someone for revealing.

[@jovanreid6782]

@@fladification Thanks for your feedback. I find most Queens fans tend to not put too much thought into the lyrics, and I also agree that the beauty of the music is that it's open to various interpretations. I just find with this particular song that it's almost astounding that more listeners haven't come to the same conclusion that I've come to, or that it's never so much as alluded to given how obvious it seems to be. Lines like, "you've got something, I understand, hold it in tightly, call on command" and "look for reflections, in your face, canine devotion, time can't erase", and "stuck in believe, there is a lie, promise is promise, an eye for an eye, we've got something, to reveal, no one can know, how we feel". To me, those are all dead giveaways, even before you get to the fact that Josh has prefaced live performances of this song by stating it's about anal sex. To me, what he's essentially saying in the lyrics is that he met someone that he had no idea was a biological male, and felt a strong attraction to this person all the while, but then started to hear things in the streets, hence the line "out on the corner, or locked in your room, I never believe them, and I never assume"- I always see that particular line as Josh's way of saying he has become aware of the general consensus about this person he's been seeing, but due to both denial and his refusal to just believe anything he hears, he doesn't come to any conclusions (and also because he is already emotionally invested in this person, hence the lyric "canine devotion time can't erase" I feel like what he's saying there is he's already into this person and there's already a physical attraction as well as an emotional attachment, so he's kind of decided even if it turns out to be true that this woman is actually a transgender woman, he's already in too deep and there's pretty much no turning back. Then the ultimate give away, "we've got something to reveal, no one can know how we feel". To me the "something to reveal" is the biological male genitalia surely to be revealed when they finally get down to the nitty gritty, and when Josh says "no one can know how we feel" he has to be saying that although he's decided to go through with this, it's absolutely imperative that no one ever knows about it if for no other reasons than that he is not prepared for the stigma attached to this type of sexual practice, as well as he has yet to reconcile this experience with his personal identity. Given all of this, I just don't see what else Lost Art could possibly be about. Oh and also have you ever watched the video. The surgery images only seems to further underscore my theory. Looks to me like a biological male by the end of the video is post-OP.

[@thebluetomatoe]

I watched this video a long time ago, and recently came back to it. I cannot figure out what car is used throughout the video, but ever since watching it over a year ago it’s become a symbol of this album for me.

[@scottieray]

Songs for the Deaf doesn't sound like it is nearly 20 years old. It has held up well and maybe become even more loved as time has passed.

[@soulfliktion]

This is...extremely well edited. I'm seriously impressed! You managed to bring the energy of the album with it. You definitely got a sub!

[@dalair]

I have always felt Rated R, Songs for the Deaf, and Lullabies to Paralyze were connected in a 3 part story. Rated R is partying and drugs, Songs for the Deaf is the dude leaving the party and going for a drive, Lullabies is about him coming to realizations and relationships.

It helps that QOTSA is my favourite band, but paving the initial strip of what I hope is a saga (WHATS THE SAGA) of queens videos with this jam packed juicy video has left me wanting an entire desert road of content to cruise through. Well done on this and I seriously hope to see more videos about QOTSA. Maybe a Crooked vultures interlude as well?

I just loved it, played it through so many times. I used to go skating late at night and would bring this album with me. Just amazing, brings up great memories

This was a really well made and informative video. Gave me a lot more respect for the album. Keep on making great videos man
