Queens of the Stone Age, commonly abbreviated QOTSA, are trailblazers in the rock music scene, often credited with revitalizing the stoner rock genre with a more accessible and heavy sound. Founded in 1996 in Palm Desert, California, the band was formed by vocalist and guitarist Josh Homme, who has remained the only constant member throughout its evolution. QOTSA's style mixes heavy riff-oriented rock with a variety of genres, including blues, electronica, and punk, resulting in a distinctive and dynamic sound that resonates with a broad audience.
The group's discography has been marked by both critical acclaim and commercial success, particularly with their third album, "Songs for the Deaf," released in 2002. Their more recent work continues to showcase their versatility and willingness to experiment. The 2013 release "...Like Clockwork" received widespread praise for its brooding and intricate compositions, and was followed by the energetic and danceable "Villains" in 2017. Always evolving, Queens of the Stone Age maintain a fiercely loyal fan base, eagerly awaiting the band's next project as they pioneer new musical landscapes while honoring the raw edge of rock and roll.
