Queens Of The Stone Age Wants To Record More Often

October 19th, 2007

Queens Of The Stone AgeLike his colleagues Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails and Maynard James Keenan of Tool, Queens Of The Stone Age frontman Josh Homme is tired of the current music industry cycle of putting out new music only once every two years. Homme told us that he’d like to accelerate the process: “This idea of putting out a record and then touring for two years, and then waiting another two years because you’re working on a record…the one thing that we’re actually looking at, and because the band is so on the move right now, is trying to record more. We’re trying to figure out how to tour but work, because I think for everyone right now, the idea of creating something is even more sort of enticing than going on the road.”

Homme told Billboard.com that he would like to release a couple of EPs before making the next full-length Queens album.

He also revealed that a proposed EP of outtakes from the band’s current album, Era Vulgaris, was nixed by their record label.

Queens Of The Stone Age are currently on the road in support of Era Vulgaris, the outfit’s fifth album. They play Saturday night (October 20th) in Columbus, Ohio.

The band recently added dates in Portland, Oregon on December 17th and Seattle, Washington on December 18th to its itinerary.

The latest single and video from Era Vulgaris is “3′s and 7′s.”
