I love the weirdness of Era Vulgaris.

[@jetstreamjack5653]

Same. It's like Nirvana's Incesticide - that weird little album that no one really brings up but is an absolute favorite.

[@dalianmoya]

Jetstream Jack it’s my favorite!!

[@inthefade]

It's so raunchy. My first couple listens I didn't enjoy it and then it became a fav, but the first album and Rated-R will probably always take my top spots.

[@ThomB1031]

Era and Like Clockwork are my favorites. The first album is right there too, even though it's a different sound.

[@MrConstantMalachi]

It's the edge, the apogee of that desert launch that began with Kyuss. It leans in for a kiss and gives you a knuckle sandwich and a mouthful of broken glass. I hear Crooked Vultures in this album more than the others too. Post-Vulgaris, it's as though QOTSA revived a creaky-hipped Elvis and re-slicked his hair.

[@philtrierweiler5086]

Joey plays the drums like he's in bar fight....and that's a compliment.

[@louisdelmonte8728]

Absolutely. He wants to destroy his set ;)

[@o_Toman]

He always fucking does. Love this guy!

[@hellbenderdesign]

He's amazing. I like the Misfits shirt - wish he played on the Misfits reunion. You can do a lot worse than Dave Lombardo, but Joey would have been perfect.

[@emmasueiro]

Creo que están todos impecables

[@nebulousisgod]

Very Bonham-esque. Big heavy Misfit beatin them skins like they owe him money.

[@ty1298]

@@JorshWarshington1 I'ma take this one Ian. Not my favorite but it's top 10. The lyrics are smarmy poetry, and it's sung with an attitude that perfectly fits that quirky, sexy guitar riff. The song is just so undeniably cool and it's only gotten better over time.

[@LN-lr4rg]

*rolls down car window* Era Vulgaris is underrated!

[@liamclowes5149]

Think the problem with Era Vulgaris is some of the songs take a while to "get going". A lot of Fairweather QOTSA fans just listened to 3's and 7's and "make it wit chu" and said that's enough. Personally, I love the throwing around of the guitar sounds. It's an absolute fucking mess but it's an absolute fucking masterpiece from the band

[@murilo9992]

I admire bands that can perform their songs just like the album version.

[@kalebevans2846]

It often has to do with how produced the songs are. The Queens rely on their instruments a lot, so it's easy to make a live performance sound just like intended. It's definitely a bonus that Josh's voice has held up over the years.

[@d0gb1te]

If anything, it somehow sounds even tighter live than on the album. Simply amazing.

[@twonk890]

There's only a few bands that can. Foo fighters and rage against the machine come to mind.

[@8517vini]

Man, I never noticed how much fun it is to watch Joey Castillo play drums. He towers over that set, and seeing him playing feels like he is scalding the drum kit. It’s incredible! real angry cavemen vibes. P.S. it is hard to find footage of them playing this song live, so thank you for uploading.

[@steviemac2377]

Watch videos of Joey playing with The Bronx, His Energy is even crazier with that band!

[@Ninjamonkeydrummer]

My first concert was this band on the Era vulgaris tour when I was 12. I was up on the balcony so I had a great view down on castillo and I was fixated on him for the entire concert and the way you describe it is so farmiliar, its animalistic. Definitely my main inspiration to start playing drums.

[@pellelidell007]

The groove...the guitar licks...the beautiful noise...the weird, massive, sublime, psychedelic, and irresistible energy these fellas deliver. Wow! Like no other musicians on this planet. Josh Homme must have loved "Mass Production", "Funtime", "Nightclubbing" and "Calling Sister Midnight" on Iggy Pop's iconic "The Idiot" album given how the vibe and energy in "Turnin' On The Screw" are connected to those classics. Not ripped off...just beautifully and tastefully inspired by. Who needs drugs when you have QOTSA...?

[@brianybrianbrian]

For those of ya out there who I know will immediately try to argue that w/1 name...
