Lie Likes Music Queen, mostly the multi-layered vocals of Freddie Mercury, Brian May’s guitar sound from his Red Special and the evolution of their music.
Queens of The Stone Age has been my my favorite band ever since Songs for the Deaf and listening to Rated R and seeing them live here here I am in NYC but his side project in Them Crooked Vultures was incredible incorporating Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones From Zeppelin. I would love to see more on them.
Different genres, cant compare banas are as good as aples, Nirvana was a musical breakthrough though. You think No one Knows had as much impact as Smells Like Teen Spirit??
You can compare the raw talent of Homme and Cobain all day. Nobody said anything about Homme having as big of an imprint on the zeitgeist as Cobain did. Also, the Bronze > School
He's got to go down as one of the most talented musicians of the modern era. This stands out like a sore thumb in their live shows. Funnily enough last week I was listening to all of his earlier stuff and I came to the conclusion it just hasn't aged a bit. Musically the Queens line up now is pure talent in my opinion.
Once you hear Alain Johannes playing you become mesmerized ever since. His album Spark is so so, so! AMAZING. Definately one of the most talented people in the world.
I think a lot of people do understand them. They gained quite a lot of fame during their tour with Metallica. So there's quite a bunch of loyal fans still out there.
You mentioned the "Desert Sessions" side-project. My understanding of this project is that it is one of Homme's making where he invites other musicians out to where he lives to have talk shop, jam and record the results. There's an episode of either Travel Channel's No Reservations or CNN's "Parts Unknown" from a couple/few years ago where Anthony Bourdain went to Palm Springs to meet Josh Homme and sit-in on a jam-session that was being recorded for one of his "Desert Sessions" recordings.
True, so true. But i had mentioned him i could've just as easily mentioned Jon Theodore, Alain Johannes, Mario Boomer Lalli, Chris Goss etc, the list is quite long. But i could easily dedicate a video just about Mark Lanegan.
Nick Oliveri was invited to tour in support of the 1st QOTSA album. His acceptance of the offer was recorded on an answering machine & can be heard at the end of the 1st album. Nick being featured on RESTRICTED was subsequent to that 17 month tour, apparently.
As a guitar player who grew up on 60s 70s music, from rock to punk through to folk, I can't help but admire JH for his style. QOTSA are still one of my favorite bands
@@Indonesiansurftravel All his studio albums are great. Each one has its own unique sound. Like Clockwork is a fucking masterpiece in my opinion! Give it a chance some time 👍
I have loved most of the music Josh has produced and have always had a serious crush on the guy. His music is something that speaks to me like no other.
My favorite Homme-related moment was his nabbing Zep bassist, John Paul Jones, for his Them Crooked Vultures project. I hope there'll be more TCV albums to come and not have that one album be just a one-off thing. Although, stylistically-speaking, the album didn't sound all that different from what we're familiar with with regard to Homme's other recent bands (e.g.: Queens Of The Stone Age; and Eagles Of Death Metal), Jones' signature bass sound is very evident on that record which gives the "Homme-sound" a slightly-different flavor than what one hears from his other bands. I fully understand that the fact that Jones isn't a spring chicken any more is likely a major contributing factor as to why TCV hasn't recorded anymore albums, but it would still be nice to hear a new one just for those JPJ fans to be able to get their fix for his bass-sound since the likelihood for another Zep album ever to see the light of day is about as close to nil as can be given Plant's stubborn reluctance to be involved in such a project.
When Josh Homme licked his guitar in the 'No one knows' video, I've never looked at gingers in the same way... PS. His work with Polly Harvey is good as well
Haven't listened to that one. But i love In The Court Of The Crimson King. Although that's not special at all hahah. I'll give Tongues a listen asap dude.
Definitely a band worthy of a video. Not only were they prog pioneers, but they were one of the few prog bands that survived the transition into the 80s and beyond-their 80s material is completely different but still excellent.
maybe it's too late, but I skipped to 3 different sections of the thing and no Homme interview. Just an annoying ass narrative. I don't read, but I'd rather read.
Saw Queens a year ago. Band were spot on but the disconnect between them and the crowd was stunning. Joshua was also pounding big Solo cups of tequila.
I agree with the opinion that them crooked vultures sounds a lot like queens of the stone age, In my opinion, I think that everything Josh works on gets that little quotsa vibe , especially in the Iggy Pop album, doesn't undermine the quality or the texture of the music in any case. He has a really great sense of humor perhaps a bit weird for some people which is often times self-deprecating and random at times, which I think covers his dark side which is always present in him, I always thought he was an interesting person apart from his music.
lloydvallentine2 Yeah same here. I'm glad he has that sense of humor though. Makes him quite relatable for some reason. And the fact that you can always hear a piece of his style in his collaborations is a good thing. It's easier to get into the music if you're already a fan of Qotsa. Still didn't fall in love with the Post-Pop album though. Not yet at least.
There are strong similarities between Vultures and QOTSA, but JPJ's bass playing juxtaposed with Grohl's drumming gives Vultures a more layered texture imho.
I was a young 18 year old when Kyuss opened for Metallica here in 93 on the Wherever We May Roam tour. Kyuss were really a highlight that night even though I had never heard of them before. So heavy, so deep and such a groove!!
man that sounds like a hell of a show. I had somewhat the same experience when i was watching Periphery open for Dream Theater some years ago. It was such a weird combination since both bands are prog bands, but Periphery is waaay heavier and energetic compared to Dream Theater which is more grandiose and epic. Shortly said: Periphery blew me away and i became a fan instantly.
Oh my Homme boy... He is like a prophet to guitar music. Extremely skilled, creative and brave to try something new always. There're tons of modern Rock icons such as Grohl, Hetfield, Staley, Cornell but somehow Homme manages to be different from all of'em.
Yeah there's a very simple idea to how he stood out aswell. He just moved the notes on the classic blues scale around. And since he was 13 he continued to use his own unique scale.
All I need to know: he was in the Morphine/Mark Sandman documentary and said: "two string bass and sax? WTF is that?......that's fucking awesome". That alone would be enough for me to respect Josh.
My dad used to play guitar for the Del Padres and Jesse would show up super drunk to their concerts, raving about making a band. Nobody believed him until Eagles Of Death Metal's first tour
Q their music is fine never was the lyrycs so slow be fine sorry never was with the words didn't know what they were saing just liked the music be well be fine
Josh Homme reminds me of some of my favourite people. Some really come across as arrogant and over bearing when given a public audience or out in a situation which is beyond the normal one-on-one interaction (this is inclusive of interviews with people they're not comfortable with). For this reason I find Josh homme really hard to watch and listen to when hes in these situations. But having witnessed this same front from people I know well and love leads me to believe that Josh is actually fuckibg awesome once hes in a space and in company hes comfortable with. Theres a saying that you should never meet your heroes and if you go off of someones public appearances this appears to be true with Josh. But meeting someone and getting to know someone are two different things. I think Josh homme is awesome. I'd love to get to know him. But I need to avoid watching him in interviews with people hes not completely relaxed with.
+Lie Likes Music I just like the artists you're starting to cover. Either I've been trying to understand their music or it reinforces my love for said artists
I'm glad Lie Likes Music pointed out that Vultures is basically SFTD part two cos that's how I've always seen it. In turn, they remind me of King Crimson and Mars Volta.
Hi, loved the link with The Osmonds, ha,ha. I've been in Utah and saw a wonderful Laser show with Led Zeppelin music there. It was 1992 so that was pretty new at the time. Anyway cool Josh picked up the drumsticks again. Does he still do that radio show? Love to hear more of that show, like the sound of his talking voice . Very nice and informative video , excellent work C! ❄ 😊
Multi-instrumentalist Michael Mills from Australia. A guy who sang "wutherings heights" in originak key and played a Queen song to even impress Brian May in a very positive way.
i remember being 12 sitting on the bus to school listening to a mixed cd of songs of the deaf and rated R i still love those alot but over the years every new album just clicked with me instantly even the arctic monkeys humbug album is to my opinion the best (homme produced that for a big part) you can hear him sing on dance little liar ( the alll zeerooosss lined uuupp part)
Man you listened to them that early? How awesome! I was introduced to QOTSA in 9th grade and started really digging their whole discography from there on. Can't say i have the same experience with the Arctic Monkeys though. But i have a feeling i would love them too if i gave them a real chance. Thanks for sharing man!
Yup..one of my favourite songs from an awesome album. It never leaves my car. Same as Dirt-AIC and Songs for the Deaf. Three CDs that constantly stay in my car 👌🏻
Well from the fans he's gotten over the years and the people he surrounds himself with, i think he knows where he is in terms of status. But he's very humble about it.
I can only imagine. Kyuss was one of the only bands of its kind back then. Now there's thousands of copycats... The whole groove-metal, bassy and crunchy sound was so new at the time (If you look away from Sabbath and Blue Cheer of course)
A bit critical saying he's fortunate (lucky) when musicians like John Paul Jones ,Dave Grohl playing and recording with him , speaks for itself and live Brilliant performances ,that I've witnessed..Songwriting ,producing and pressures in the music industry in today's world,let alone in his personal life,loosing Mark Lanegan touched me greatly! Thanks Josh a musical talent we're truly blessed to have in our lifetime
Good start. Now look through Josh's discography with a technical spyglass and locate those characteristic motifs that give him his unique sound. For instance, specific uses of his modified blues scale in song x and song y etc
Great video, I've been a fan for quite a few years now and didn't know much of his back story. I may have to pick up TCV and maybe an EODM now to check it out.
Definitely. Despite being the man who wrote one of Blur's best songs with Coffee and TV his solo stuff has been incredibly diverse and interesting. From post hardcore on his second album The Golden D(which also happened to include a jazz song on it) to Bert Jansch fingerpicked folk on the spinning top to the slacker rock of Kiss of the Morning to the krautrock of A and E. He's also worked with his Blur producing cohort Stephen Street on Happiness in Magazines and Love travels at illegal speeds. He also wrote and recorded the score for End of the Fucking World on Netflix. He was also the driving force behind Blur's most recent work The Magic Whip working with Stephen Street to take recordings from downtime on a tour to a full album. He has also done remixes for several bands with the Beastie Boys Triple Trouble being the biggest. He also plays every instrument on his solo albums (in fact on song 2 hes actually playing the drums rather than Dave Rowntree) He's always worn his influences on his sleeve being a massive fan of Syd Barrett, Stephen Malkmus, Paul Weller, Nick Drake, Johnny Marr, Sonic Youth, Mission of Burma, The Stone Roses. Pixies and many others they all seem to brilliantly blend in his brilliant hands. His style of guitar is deceptively simple until you try to play it and realise how good he is. Jim Root of Slipknot is a big fan of his playing style. While the music industry and press seem to focus in on Damon, Graham has always been the quiet understated genius in the background working away. Graham's solo albums are incredibly diverse and allow his skills to come to the fore.
I was gonna try to give all the reasons I find Coxon far more of a musical genius than Albarn, but Adamnme01 said everything I was gonna say plus a hundred things I didn't know. But I'd love to see a video on Coxon for sure.
What band/artist should be next?

Dave Grohl gave the Kyuss tape to Metallica while still in Nirvana in the first place.
That's where their connection starts.
Yupp. That's the more specific version of the story. Thanks for sharing!
I just want another Them Crooked Vultures album next
Ah same here! Those guys did such an outstanding job with that album.
rockomundo I want one too, there album is one of my favorite. I loved the weird, experimental stuff like spinning in the daffodils and Gunman.
If JPJ can't make it, I'll play bass
Queens of The Stone Age has been my my favorite band ever since Songs for the Deaf and listening to Rated R and seeing them live here here I am in NYC but his side project in Them Crooked Vultures was incredible incorporating Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones From Zeppelin.

@@scottlapier4363 if he cant make it Paul McCartney might.
he’s up there with Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, David Bowie for pure raw talent and he’s a musical genius. Qotsa are my all time favourite band
No .. JOSH HOMME is above
like dave grohl says...qotsa is the tightest, greatest band in the world
He stands there with Lennon and Bowie for sure. Kurt Cobain is on a much lower level than all of them.
Different genres, cant compare banas are as good as aples, Nirvana was a musical breakthrough though. You think No one Knows had as much impact as Smells Like Teen Spirit??

Josh Homme has been in my 'current rotation' playlists for the last 20 years in some form or another.
Same here, for the past 10 years that is. I'm a hardcore fan!

Funnily enough last week I was listening to all of his earlier stuff and I came to the conclusion it just hasn't aged a bit. Musically the Queens line up now is pure talent in my opinion.
Them Crooked Vultures unofficially is a four piece band. Don't forget about the master, Alain Johannes.
SchoolofRockNRoll true words
Yeah, not to mention he fills in the extra parts live. So he's as good as a member to me.
Finally somebody said it!! Alain is one of his huge influences too
Alain is a before and after for homme since he met him
Once you hear Alain Johannes playing you become mesmerized ever since. His album Spark is so so, so! AMAZING. Definately one of the most talented people in the world.
we ain’t gonna talk about how this guy formed Kyuss, a kickass band that was the catalyst for QOTSA and other epic projects, at age fucking 14?!??!
14 is too young to be fucking.
Kyuss was one of the most amazing bands that nobody fucking understood
I think a lot of people do understand them. They gained quite a lot of fame during their tour with
Metallica. So there's quite a bunch of loyal fans still out there.
Lie Likes Music I agree, it’s just rare for me to find another fellow Kyuss fan so when I do meet someone, I geek out.
That tour really boosted them
I hadn't really thought about how much of his music I listen to before. It's a lot. Hope he keeps making it.
Im still waiting for Understanding Julian Casablancas
Yeahhhh
I think Alain Johannes is a huge influence & inspiration on Homme. Overall, he’s a badass .
In the fade is a classic
Nothing less than a classic!
One of the best
Such a pretty song! Have you heard it acoustic? It brought me to tears the first time!

i think mark lanegan should have had a mention here.
True, so true. But i had mentioned him i could've just as easily mentioned
Jon Theodore, Alain Johannes, Mario Boomer Lalli, Chris Goss etc, the list
is quite long. But i could easily dedicate a video just about Mark Lanegan.
YES PLEASE
a video about the screaming trees will be amazing i mean i rarely see ANYONE ever talking about them.

He's not touched by genius, but he's kinda close... A man of great talent

His phrasing and tone is just so goddamn incredible. And Demon Cleaner Kyuss is my favorite guitar riff
Thanks for this video. Queens of the Stone Age are supremely underrated
Nah i think they've made a huge dent in rock music's history. It's just that their sound is a bit too quirky
for the masses.
Another great video essay lie I love these. Josh Homme is one of my biggest musical inspirations so this was really cool
when i think of joshua homme i think of drunken guitar riffs

I can't see that coming, that would be a strange combo. But interesting too
You gotta do King Crimson next
Meme Thief I can smell it coming. It's close.
Haven't listened to that one. But i love In The Court Of The Crimson King.
Although that's not special at all hahah. I'll give Tongues a listen asap dude.

The album with Iggy Pop is a masterpiece. Have to catch up on the rest. Thanks for a good video!
Saw Queens a year ago. Band were spot on but the disconnect between them and the crowd was stunning. Joshua was also pounding big Solo cups of tequila.
Man that doesn't sound good. I heard Dave Grohl also has some insane drinking habits before going on these days.
A wonderfully paced, well researched and insightful video. Nice work!

Well from the fans he's gotten over the years and the people he surrounds himself with,
i think he knows where he is in terms of status. But he's very humble about it.
I agree that he is very humble about it :) What I meant was actually that Homme sees *this video* 👍🏼 I should have written "sees this".
Hey my bro, congratz from Brazil, i had see your video about mac demarco, and now about josh homme, great job!
Hey Alexandre thanks for watching and supporting! I'm glad you like what i do. Many thanks for Norway.
We need some moreThem Crooked Vultures.
Very nice analysis, you forgot one important person though...Troy Van Leeuwen ;-)
JH has the best rock voice I've heard.
Qotsa is my favorite band ever. But i can't say that Josh is a skillful singer. He is good, but not outstanding
like say Freddy Mercury.
Do Alex Turner next.
Lie Likes Music Nice!
yes!!!
yes pleasee
Lie Likes Music alraightttttttttttt
Would love to see that
He is a rock God and a huge inspiration
I think the same
I don’t want to understand him. I just want his brilliance to wash all over me.
Saw Type O open for Kyuss in Huntington Wv....Gumbies I'm guessing 94??? One of the best shows i've ever witnessed. Kyuss was bludgeoning.....
I can only imagine. Kyuss was one of the only bands of its kind back then. Now there's thousands of copycats...
The whole groove-metal, bassy and crunchy sound was so new at the time (If you look away from Sabbath and
Blue Cheer of course)
Do one on Wayne Coyne/The Flaming Lips
Inspiring music, cool style, no overstatements
Homme and Les Claypool are the two best songwriters in rock today.
He's my favorite musician of all time . His music is a foundation for me. Out of all the stuff I listen to. Josh's music is what I come back to .
Same here Kodie. His music or anything related to it. Like Kyuss, Foo Fighters, TEODM, Desert Sessions, Mark Lanegan etc.
do primus my man
treshman hopefully.
Nah it sucks
Primus SUCKS
I love Primus. Grew up on it.
YES PRIMUS!!!!!
A bit critical saying he's fortunate (lucky) when musicians like John Paul Jones ,Dave Grohl playing and recording with him , speaks for itself and live Brilliant performances ,that I've witnessed..Songwriting ,producing and pressures in the music industry in today's world,let alone in his personal life,loosing Mark Lanegan touched me greatly! Thanks Josh a musical talent we're truly blessed to have in our lifetime
nice short video of Homme in a nutshell, but he is much more than 11 mins
doomyman Off course, we could do a video series about him haha.
Great video! Really informative and well made!
a4grtu Thanks man! Love making these. Let me know if i can improve on anything.
Good start. Now look through Josh's discography with a technical spyglass and locate those characteristic motifs that give him his unique sound. For instance, specific uses of his modified blues scale in song x and song y etc
I guess i could've used more examples like that. Thanks for adding that.
Dusko Males Great band!
Oliveri was also on the first QOTSA album.
He was on the photo on the backcover, yes.
you forgot to mention that Nick Oliveri wrote a bunch of qotsa songs on the first 2 albums. It's not all Josh.
Yeh but Josh sacked him as he was a wife beater. Good on him
So it is all about Josh 😀
An understanding the cramps or misfits would be awesome!
Tool? Please?
Great video, I've been a fan for quite a few years now and didn't know much of his back story. I may have to pick up TCV and maybe an EODM now to check it out.
Thanks! I'm glad you learned something new. TCV is way better than EODM imo. Cheers from Norway.
how about a video on Graham Coxon of Blur and his solo stuff
So you would consider him more interesting than Damon?
Definitely. Despite being the man who wrote one of Blur's best songs with Coffee and TV his solo stuff has been incredibly diverse and interesting. From post hardcore on his second album The Golden D(which also happened to include a jazz song on it) to Bert Jansch fingerpicked folk on the spinning top to the slacker rock of Kiss of the Morning to the krautrock of A and E. He's also worked with his Blur producing cohort Stephen Street on Happiness in Magazines and Love travels at illegal speeds. He also wrote and recorded the score for End of the Fucking World on Netflix. He was also the driving force behind Blur's most recent work The Magic Whip working with Stephen Street to take recordings from downtime on a tour to a full album. He has also done remixes for several bands with the Beastie Boys Triple Trouble being the biggest. He also plays every instrument on his solo albums (in fact on song 2 hes actually playing the drums rather than Dave Rowntree)
He's always worn his influences on his sleeve being a massive fan of Syd Barrett, Stephen Malkmus, Paul Weller, Nick Drake, Johnny Marr, Sonic Youth, Mission of Burma, The Stone Roses. Pixies and many others they all seem to brilliantly blend in his brilliant hands. His style of guitar is deceptively simple until you try to play it and realise how good he is. Jim Root of Slipknot is a big fan of his playing style.
While the music industry and press seem to focus in on Damon, Graham has always been the quiet understated genius in the background working away. Graham's solo albums are incredibly diverse and allow his skills to come to the fore.
I was gonna try to give all the reasons I find Coxon far more of a musical genius than Albarn, but Adamnme01 said everything I was gonna say plus a hundred things I didn't know. But I'd love to see a video on Coxon for sure.
Great video as always! I am really glad I found your channel :D
I'm glad we found each other xD
Haha yeah thanks :D
