  • Behold, two of the funniest fuckers on the planet. In conversation. Joshua Homme as you know is the frontman of Queens of the Stone Age aka the sickest rock’n’roll band ever created in the last few thousands years or so.
    Their new album ‘Villains' is about to drop on the 25th August and we wanted to talk to him so we asked comedian, writer, ex-VICE columnist and QOTSA-superfan Rob Delaney to ask him about it.
    He did a bit but also they discussed having 3 children, George Carlin, The Handmaid’s Tale and ZZ Top.

    micheal shuman was the first bass player i ever knew that carried entire bands. he was kind of reggae like that, but full on rocker, the last time i ever saw him i was taking a piss next to him at alex bar in long beach right before wires on fire played and he told me he got the queens gig playing bass for josh while we were litterally standing at the urinals pissing. i never even got to shake his hand while i congratulated him. i shook the piss off the tip of my dick instead. for me it was a big deal because queens had already been one of my favorite bands for several years and mike played bass for my drummer in his other band jubilee. he was the first dude that i knew as just one of the dudes that made it in music by joining a band that to me was one of my top six of all time. its like he might as well joined the beatles or nirvana. to me it was that huge of news. ill never forget that. last time i saw him. so far anyway.

    I hope Josh, if you happen to see this comment, condolences for the loss of Mark. Mark Lanegan was a true Lizard King of the 90's and more, his gravely, mood heavy vocals lending poetry to music. Damned if the world is just a bit more bland without him.

    Getting Rob and Josh together now (2025) would be an interesting, though not light hearted, conversation. They've both gone through tremendous losses in the last few years.
    Rob lost his 2 1/2 year old son, Henry, to a brain tumor in 2018. He wrote a memoir about him, called "A Heart That Works" in 2022.
    Josh's marriage has crumbled. He's gone through rehab. In a recent interview he said he'd lost 12 people he was close to in the last 3 years. Those people included Taylor Hawkins, Mark Lanegan and his best friend Rio Hackford. He was also friends with Anthony Bourdain for 15 years prior to his suicide in 2018.
