LP Lexicon Podcast 017 - Songs for the Deaf by Queens of the Stone Age

Episode: 017
iTunes

Artist: QotSA.

Album: Songs for the Deaf.

Show notes: This was a Christmas present in 2002 from my friend Alan, who did the correct thing; he asked me what album I wanted for Christmas. I asked for this, and it's been a moch-loved LP ever since.


Albums like this are always destined for greatness - they don't follow a particular style, but utilize many different styles of music to make up the album as a whole. This album does it. The White album does it. Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness does it. That kind of range determines that your finished product will be awesome, if you have the chops.

There isn't a great deal that I can say about this album, which I haven't said on the pod. If you don't know it, try it. It's really great. I'll link the singles here:

No One Knows

First It Giveth

Go With The Flow.

Peace!

Show notes: As these long, winter evening draw in, I'm hit with the urge to immerse myself in the things which remind me of such evenings, be it music or film. Here are the Alan Lee paintings we were looking at:



Also, this week, I recorded a movie commentary for Tusk, with the 50ftNerds. It was great fun, and if you have seen the movie, check out the commentary here.
