Acoustic-led, sun-stained, and beautifully peaceful, it is a blend of lovely melodies, shimmering atmospheres and poetic refrains. Featuring a guest appearance from Nikki Lane, it\u2019s a woozy, curious and wonderfully constructed left turn from a band that manage to always have a surprise up their sleeve. <\/p>\n<p>Saying all of that, the video is still absolutely wild.<\/p>\n<p>Guiatrist\/vocalist Josh Homme had this to say about the tune:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s kind of a funny song. It\u2019s like hitting your funny bone, where it\u2019s funny because it hurts and it hurts because it\u2019s funny. You\u2019re serious, but it\u2019s funny. We made it the way you\u2019d make a demo. No click track, mistakes left in. It speeds up, it slows down, the claps aren\u2019t great, but they\u2019re not bad, and a bad clap adds this human thing you can\u2019t fake.\u201d He continues, \u201cIt\u2019s not just about silliness. It\u2019s about understanding the imperfection of your life. The song, like your life, is in the mistakes. Its imperfections are unbeatable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The band are out and about at the moment, serving as support for System Of A Down, before nipping out with Foo Fighters. <\/p>\n<p>Here are the dates you can catch them:<\/p>\n<p>JULY<\/p>\n<p>15 \u2013 LONDON Tottenham Hotspur Stadium*<br \/>18 \u2013 WARSAW PGE Narodowy*<br \/>19 \u2013 WARSAW PGE Narodowy*<\/p>\n<p>AUGUST<\/p>\n<p>04 \u2013 TORONTO Rogers Stadium^<br \/>06 \u2013 DETROIT Ford Field^<br \/>08 \u2013 CHICAGO Soldier Field Stadium^<br \/>10 \u2013 CLEVELAND Huntington Bank Field^<br \/>13 \u2013 PHILADELPHIA Lincoln Financial Field^<br \/>15 \u2013 NASHVILLE Nissan Stadium^<br \/>17 \u2013 WASHINGTON Nationals Park^<\/p>\n<p>SEPTEMBER<\/p>\n<p>15 \u2013 REGINA Mosaic Stadium^<br \/>17 \u2013 EDMONTON Commonwealth Stadium^<br \/>20 \u2013 VANCOUVER BC Place^<br \/>24 \u2013 LOUISVILLE Bourbon &amp; Beyond Festival<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">26 \u2013 LAS VEGAS Allegiant Stadium^<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">* w\/ System of a Down<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">^ w\/ Foo Fighters<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Queens Of The Stone Age are back with their first new music in three years, and whatever you&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":296355,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[9,24,63,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-296354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=296354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296354\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/296355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=296354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=296354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=296354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
