New Queens Of The Stone Age Video - "Sick, Sick, Sick"

Though Julian Casablancas provides a backing vocal to the dirty riffage of the great first single from Era Vulgaris, he's nowhere to be found in the cut's clip. Neither is Bulby. Instead, Homme has a disturbingly Klan-ish, masked chef cooking up a 37-course meal of meat, fish, and fingers for a gluttonously devilish model who gorges herself to the point of getting sick (sick, sick). Meanwhile, Josh and the band rock on in the dining room, which slowly fades to a hellfire glow. Go call the kids and watch it together!

Era Vulgaris is out 6/12 on Interscope.

I don't know, I still really like their albums but their singles have been boring me lately.

After watching this video, how can you ever disassociate it from the song? One of the last 'meat-grinder' shots is a homage (I'd think) to the widely banned 'Happiness in Slavery' video for Nine Inch Nails.

even though i love Qotsa, this track doesnt do it for me. Julian doesnt really fit, his vocals just come out of nowhere. josh's singing reminds me of marlyn manson who im not fond of. but regardless im waiting for this album. it will be good i know. 3's and 7's is amazing.

The new bass player is Mikey Shoes from Wires On Fire according to Buddyhead. They have the video on youtube too... http://www.buddyhead.com/mp3blog/

this is the worst song on the new album, which otherwise is very good. 3's&7's or Misfit Love would have been the better single.

This version's way better than the "German version." I seriously don't want to eat anything now.
