QOTSA have told fans to follow and keep an eye on the band’s social platforms to see the status of their complaint, with the suggestion that a band member might even be on the other side of the line.<\/p>\n

They continued: “The official Queens of the Stone Age Complaint Hotline is now open. Fans, friends, and foes, can dial in at +1 (760) 437-1966<\/a> to air their gripes and grievances, moans and groans, chagrin’, carpin’ and any judgements they wish to pass.<\/p>\n

“Callers can leave a message 24\/7. All complaints will be reviewed personally. There is a chance that some callers may even find a live ear at the other end of the line. Sometimes people just need to complain, and Queens of the Stone Age are here to listen.”<\/p>\n

The news comes after the band released a new single titled, Easy Street single, featuring American country music artist Nikki Lane.<\/p>\n

Produced by Josh Homme and Michael Shuman and debuted live last year during the band’s Catacombs tour, the song marks the band’s first new taste of material since 2023’s In Times New Roman.<\/p>\n

The track was accompanied by a Tony Wolski and Christopher Gruse-directed video, based on a story and idea from the mind of Homme. <\/p>\n

Queens of the Stone Age – Easy Street (Official Video)<\/p>\n

\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,\u201d Homme says of the song. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe 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\u00a0 <\/p>\n

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

It’s not the only country connection Homme has made of late, recently featuring on Shania Twain’s new track, Faded Blue Jeans, which features album Little Miss Twain\u2014which was released on 24th July 2026.<\/p>\n
