On the surface a one off album by a rock supergroup but as much as Grohl and Jones bring a lot of weight with them they are in the end nothing more than surrogates for another of Josh Hommme's bastard children. That's not to say there isn't any chemistry, they're clearly having a good time playing together but it's the leering prescense of Homme that dominates, like a man having an indiscreet affair with his wife's twin sister and loving it. In short if you like QOTSA you'll like this. Not as good as Rated R or Songs for the Deaf but then again not much is.

Above average for a modern album in my opinion but, the singer just isn't that good.
He does not fit in with 2 rock gods.

Supergroups shouldn't work. This one does.

Dave Grohl's is on nothing bad.

I'm liking this record more and more. I honestly think it deserves more praise. It's true that it's not exactly new or innovative but is still awesome, the riffs are catchy, powerful and entertaining, I love Homme's vocals, Grohl is on the drums AND John Paul Jones is here. 'Nuff said.

Clunker. It starts off promising with the opening track and the two singles, but then it goes nowhere from there. Just the same thing but less good. Lost interest after Dead End Friends.

Oh gosh! It's being topped by streisand.

nothing new but not a bad album either

Classic or clunker?
