Recorded at a time when Homme was facing a serious health ailment that later forced the band to cancel tour dates, the album leaned into dark new corners of QOTSA\u2019s sound, marking a stylistic pivot from their usual high-energy hard rock.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re ever going to be haunted, surrounded by several million dead people is the place,\u201d Homme said in promo materials for Alive In The Catacombs. \u201cI\u2019ve never felt so welcome in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Queens Of The Stone Age took the Catacombs experience on tour last year, giving fans a unique twist on their signature live show. The Nov. 18, 2025 stop in Austin brought that experience to viewers around the world via livestream, then was aired on PBS stations nationwide last month as part of the 51st season of Austin City Limits. Now the 51-minute broadcast is permanently archived and replayable on YouTube.\n<\/p>\n<p>Like the rest of the Catacombs tour, the ACL set featured songs from throughout Queens Of The Stone Age\u2019s discography reinterpreted in acoustic arrangements, backed by orchestral and choral musicians, under lighting that leaned into the music\u2019s spooky qualities. Uncut praised the tour\u2019s London stop as \u201cunsettling and sublime.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>ACL TV\u2019s 51st season also includes performances from the likes of Jon Batiste, Leon Thomas, Marcus King Band, MJ Lenderman,, Rene\u00e9 Rapp, Thee Sacred Souls, and Wyatt Flores. Queens Of The Stone Age will spend this summer back in full-on rock mode, touring stadiums with Foo Fighters.\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.udiscovermusic.com\/collections\/queens-of-the-stone-age?utm_campaign=products&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=udiscovermusic.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Browse the Queens of the Stone Age\u2019s music on vinyl and CD here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Get ready for QOTSA on ACL TV.
