Queens Of The Stone Age (QOTSA) formed in Seattle in 1996, founded by vocalist and guitarist Josh Homme after the dissolution of his previous band, Kyuss. Homme has been the consistent member through various line-up changes, with the current core members including Troy Van Leeuwen (guitar), Michael Shuman (bass), Dean Fertita (keyboards), and Jon Theodore (drums) since 2013. The band’s early work saw Homme playing most instruments on their self-titled debut in 1998, with former Kyuss member Alfredo Hernández on drums. The addition of bassist Nick Oliveri and keyboardist/guitarist Dave Catching soon followed.
Their second album, ‘Rated R’ (2000), marked their major label debut with Interscope Records and achieved critical and commercial success, featuring the breakout single “The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret.” This period also included notable guest appearances, such as Mark Lanegan becoming a full-time member shortly after. The band’s third album, ‘Songs for the Deaf’ (2002), further expanded their reach, featuring Dave Grohl on drums and producing hit singles like “No One Knows” and “Go with the Flow.” This album was certified gold in 2003 and featured in popular video games, solidifying their mainstream presence.
Following personnel changes, including Oliveri’s departure, QOTSA continued to evolve. They signed with Matador Records in 2013 and released a trilogy of albums: ‘…Like Clockwork’ (2013), ‘Villains’ (2017), and ‘In Times New Roman…’ (2023). ‘…Like Clockwork’ was their first album to top the Billboard 200 chart. The band has received nine Grammy Award nominations across various rock categories, demonstrating consistent critical recognition for their riff-oriented hard rock infused with elements of blues, electronica, and krautrock, alongside Homme’s distinct falsetto vocals.
