This is pretty cool news. I wonder what's gonna happen to Joey the Sexy Mexi? Hopefully he stays in Eagles of Death Metal permanently. I actually really like his enthusiasm and drumming. This also makes me think that Nick Oliveri might be coming back to Queens soon as well. Didn't they hire some no name bassist recently? Seemed like a stopgap until Nick is off probation or whatever.

Dave Grohl Rejoins Queens of the Stone Age for New Album, Joey Castillo Is Out
http://www.spin.com/articles/dave-grohl-queens-of-the-stone-age-new-album

Michael Shuman is on bass, he played with the band around Era Vulgaris.

since the grohl announcement didn't create enough hate here, let's try this:
Trent Reznor: Nine Inch Nails' New Album Will Happen
http://www.spin.com/articles/nine-inch-nails-trent-reznor-rolling-stone-interview

says they might tour, also.

what does it mean when a band says they are done, that is it, no more albums, no more tours, and then they just go right back to putting out another album and another tour, like widespread panic, it looks like they are doing the same thing, and coming back once again, really man, i'm totally misuing the commas here.

I love going to see Nine Inch Nails, so I'm cool with it.

His name is Mike something…. But this is awesome news.

The "Musical Illuminati" seem to hold QOTSA to some sort of weird standard, Dave Grohl is accepted as long as he's tied to Josh Home [See EODM, Them Crooked Vultures] I also think it has a lot to do with how Grohl looks at Queens [Foo Fighters being his wife, Queens being the "hot fuck" in college he'll never forget]. Their most commercially successful album, although I think Rated R has higher critical acclaim. Didn't Rolling Stone declare it one of the best "hard rock" albums of the decade?

I've been dying for a new album and new tour. Really wish they would have come through DC on the Rated R re-issue tour. I still have their poster from 2005 when they played at the Club.

As for EoDM, I think they could have had a new album but Jesse went on to make a solo album "Honkey Kong", so I don't know what that says for Eagles. My favorite show of theirs was back at the Black Cat. So much energy, Jesse is a great frontman.

I would also love to go see them again.  Its been three times and every single show was memorable and a lot of fun.

Great way to put it.

Ironically, the last time I remember Queens coming through was when they opened for Nine Inch Nails.

I was there for that! Death From Above 1979 played before Queens as well. First NIN concert and it was effing awesome. Wish that whole bill would tour again.

Last time they came was after Era Vulgaris and it was at Rams Head Live.

i saw that show as well.  got very close on the floor.  the visuals.  after i left . . . i was changed.

I was there too.  Right up front.  LOVED it.

I was kind of in the middle of the crowd, went up and went a little crazy when they closed with "Song For The Dead", loved the whole chandelier set up that they had. It was also my first experience at Rams Head.

I wonder if 930 could ever get that double bill that I've seen around a few times now with Arctic Monkeys opening and Queens Of The Stone Age headlining. Fanboygasm.

also, more talk of a 2013 NIN tour.

While we're talking about my favorite band of all time:

Nick Oliveri to Appear on New Queens of the Stone Age Album, Rejoins Kyuss Lives!

http://exclaim.ca/News/nick_oliveri_to_appear_on_new_queens_of_stone_age_album

Getting all boned up for this album. Been waiting for fucking years.

How the hell can you have a six hour armed stand off with a SWAT team and not do jail time?  Fuck this guy.

Actually pretty upset Era Vulgaris was Lannegan-less. Cmon man, "Into The Fade"?! His voice is fucking priceless on that.

theres no denying nick's a total piece of shit (and i never really missed him musically like a lot of qotsa fans) but having him sing a bit on the new album is definitely intriguing.

If it comes out anything close to "You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire" or "Tension Head" I won't be mad.

Nick sounds like he's crazy. That being said, he did contribute some cool tunes: "Tension Head", "Autopilot", "Gonna Leave You", "Quick and to the Pointless"…I think he'll do some good vocals. I think the new QOTSA record will be solid. Josh does his best work when he's bouncing ideas off of others. Love all 3 Eagles of Death Metal records too.

New Nick Cave in 2013.
