download free full albums . Like Clockwork. All the surface evidence on . Like Clockwork suggests is steering Queens of the Stone Age back to familiar territory. Once again, he's enlisted drummer as his anchor and he's made amends with his erstwhile bassist , suggesting Homme is returning to either Rated R or , the two turn-of-the-millennium masterpieces that thrust QOTSA out of their cult, but . Like Clockwork isn't so simple as a return to roots. Homme flirts with his history as a way to make sense of his present, reconnecting with his strengths as a way to reorient himself, consolidating his indulgences and fancies into a record that obliterates middle-age malaise without taking a moment to pander to the past. Like always, Homme opens himself up to collaborations, wrangling an impressive roster that includes his wife Brody Dalle, his longtime companion , his protégé Arctic Monkey Alex Turner, his kindred spirit , Scissor Sister Jake Shears, and superstar Elton John, but despite this large cast, the only musician who makes an indelible presence is Homme himself. . Like Clockwork is unusually focused for a Queens of the Stone Age record, containing all of the group's hallmarks -- namely volume and crunch, but also a tantalizing sense of danger, finding seduction within the darkness -- but there is little of the desert sprawl and willful excess that have always distinguished their records. This is forceful, purposeful, fueled by dense interwoven riffs and colored with hints of piano and analog synthesizers that quite consciously evoke '70s future dystopia. QOTSA always specialized in this eerie sexiness, but the precision on . Like Clockwork -- quite different than the merciless propulsion of Era Vulgaris, the 2007 album that closed out their time at Interscope -- feels conceptually tight, Homme smartly sculpting guitar fuzz, elastic solos, haunted harmonies, and deceptively slinky rhythms into a cool, relentless collection of heavy rock. The force impresses but also the restraint: there are missed beats and open space, muscular music that seduces and pummels, even manages to soothe while it assaults. It's complex, harder, and catchier than anything QOTSA have done in a decade, and more song-oriented, too, but that's a sign of maturity: Homme has marshaled all of his strengths on . Like Clockwork and has found a way forward, a way to deepen his music without compromising his identity. Download free queens of the stone age full albums.

DOWNLOAD LINKS: RAPIDGATOR: DOWNLOAD TURBOBIT: DOWNLOAD. Villains. It takes nearly a minute for Villains to begin its slow ascent from the murk and even longer before the clenched funk of "Feet Don't Fail Me Now" clicks in, a deliberateness that suggests Josh Homme has supreme confidence in the seventh album from Queens of the Stone Age. Perhaps some of this swagger flows in Homme's blood, perhaps it stems from QOTSA finally reaching Billboard's pole position with 2013's …Like Clockwork, but there's an undeniable assurance to Villains that surely has something to do with the band -- or specifically Homme, who is the only constant in QOTSA's career -- knowing precisely who they are as they close out their second decade. To that end, the hiring of -- the man whose star rose with Amy Winehouse and who's sustained his fame through Bruno Mars -- as producer feels like the move of a group who knows no outside influence will dilute their music, and Villains proves this to be true. QOTSA doesn't come to Ronson, Ronson comes QOTSA, sharpening their attack and adding spooky grace notes to the margins. On these asides, QOTSA conjures the dark magic that's been their calling card since the start, but where …Like Clockwork gained strength from its foreboding, Villains feels designed to lift spirits. For one, it's filled with ravers and boogies, alternating between taut vamps and louche glam grooves. Homme goes so far as to tip his stove pipe hat to Marc Bolan on "Un-Reborn Again," one of a few classic rock nods scattered throughout the album. As classic as Villains can sound -- and there's no doubting that Homme and company pledge allegiance to the sounds and styles patented in the '70s -- it feels fresh due to execution. At this stage, Queens of the Stone Age don't have many new tricks in their bag, but their consummate skill -- accentuated by the fact that this is the first QOTSA album that features just the band alone, not even augmented by Mark Lanegan -- means they know when to ratchet up the tempo, when to slide into a mechanical grind, and when to sharpen hooks so they puncture cleanly. All that makes Villains a dark joy, a record that offers visceral pleasure in its winking menace. Villains. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs.

Gone are the times when these masters of stoner rock waved their throbbing heavy guitars while scrunching their eyebrows… Twenty years after forming their band under the Californian sun and palm trees, Queens Of The Stone Age have skilfully evolved without ever selling out. With Villains , Josh Homme and his crew have even taken on a rather unexpected passenger in the name of… Mark Ronson! Two years after his giant hit Uptown Funk carried by the voice of Bruno Mars, the Londoner who exploded onto the mainstream scene with his work on Amy Winehouse’s Back To Black , finds himself producing QOTSA’s seventh album, which unlike usual doesn’t feature any guest. And the result fits in perfectly with this iconoclastic partnership: the band’s usual virile and sparkly rock’n’roll (irresistible on their single The Way You Used To Do ) is beefed up by an energetic production. And Ronson’s funky and groovy DNA blends in with the Californians’, more Bowiesque than ever (obvious on Un- Reborn Again ). By the way, isn’t the title Villains echoing the Thin White Duke’s Heroes ? © MD/Qobuz.

Copyrighted material, genuine megarare release. [3] Ipecac Records: This is the original Ipecac Recordings which does not have Domino stickering after being commandeered by Domino and Rekords Rekords. At the last minute Ipecac Recordings were dropped in favour of Domino Records after the album had been manufactured. Due to manufacturing problems at Domino, Queens Of The Stone Age used the Ipecac Pressing for sales during their US/Canadian tour supporting the record in March/April 2011. It was also used by Domino to fulfil some of the non European pre-orders. Domino USA have stated that all vinyl versions of the repress used the same masters. The runout information on the European version suggests that separate vinyl masters were used. This release has a thick card gatefold sleeve with a high gloss finish and paper inner sleeves. the Domino pressing has a thin card sleeve with a matt finish and card inner sleeves.

The vinyl edition of this album was pressed by Man's Ruin under license from Loosegroove. 3000 copies were made in the one-time pressing, with 2500 black, 198 green, and the rest yellow/orange , all with a Gatefold sleeve and the classic Kozik motor cycle chick on the cover. In 1999, a blue pressing was discovered. Josh says that the blue pressing is an official QOTSA bootleg, as the band pressed exactly 198 copies on blue vinyl themselves (not under Man's Ruin) and sold the copies themselves at concerts in early 1999. Josh also says that a very small number of swirl/splatter colored vinyl are floating around somewhere. The Man's Ruin (black, green, and orange/yellow) vinyl edition sold out completely within three days of its initial release. Fake vinyl: Someone in Germany have made a counterfeit black wax pressing of the QOTSA vinyl. Here's how you smoke out a bootleg: check the inner ring of the vinyl itself for the matrix number (MR-151); if it's not there, it's a fake. This bootleg does have the matrix number on the cover, but it's NOT on the vinyl itself. If you're thinking of buying a copy on Ebay, ask the seller about the matrix number on the vinyl before you buy. [5] This album has been heavy bootlegged since 2003. All counterfeits also issued in a gatefold sleeve. Differences can be determined by looking at the gatefold sleeve or the runout-groove etchings. Original copies have the MR-151-A on one side of the runout at the 6 o'clock position and L- 50953 at the 12 o'clock position. Some bootleg copies have no run-out groove etchings at all. Other versions have "MR-151-A/L-50953" written all together on side A and "MR-151-A/L-50953X" on side B. [6] Counterfeit repressings include yellow, blue, green, black and red editions.
