There are several great tunes on this album, and there is no doubt in my mind that it is their best effort yet as a band. I have been spinning this CD for a week straight and can attest to that fact. At first I thought it was a little too filler oriented, but have changed my mind since. One word of advice: Give this one several spins...it will grow on you over the course of time much like 'Rated R' did for me. I am sold on this one- it's better than 'Rated R' in my opinion and I am glad that a band like Queens of the Stone Age exists in today�s shitty rock and roll all time low. It gives hope to the world of mainstream corporate rock and is recommended for everyone. So what are you waiting for?

There's some really incredible stuff on this record. Stuff the likes of ye have yet to hear. It borrows from the past, rewrites the present and forges the future of rock. It is a work of art. It makes statements about music, consumerism and what we have become. It contains 12 of the greatest rock tunes since Revolver or Pet Sounds, I shit you not. Even though you may skip it after the initial listen, the radio banter is crucial to the flavor and integrity of the album. This is a must buy for fans of any type of music and is one of the greatest and most important albums I own. Already.
