Gold-certified alternative rockers Queens Of The Stone Age have officially announced their ninth studio album, \u2018Perfecth\u2019, which is set to arrive on October 30th. Alongside the announcement, the band have debuted the album\u2019s second advance track, \u201cInsignificant Other\u201d.<\/p>\n

The new record follows an extensive campaign of increasingly bizarre and comedic teasers from the band. Frontman Josh Homme offered some insight into the unusual title, explaining:<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing in this world is perfect, but everything seems to be \u2018perfecth\u2019. And that title is funny when you\u2019re in a group, but it ain\u2019t so funny when you\u2019re alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for \u201cInsignificant Other\u201d, Homme described the song as dealing with the emotional aftermath of someone suddenly disappearing from your life.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a song about distance. About how someone can be your entire world only to simply vanish. And about the strange vertigo of being on the receiving end of that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The band have also continued their strange promotional campaign with another offbeat video, which was written by Homme and directed by Chapman Baehler. The latest clip features a \u201cBig Chongus\u201d adoption storyline and continues the surreal humor surrounding the album rollout.<\/p>\n

Homme co-produced \u2018Perfecth\u2019 alongside Queens Of The Stone Age bassist\/vocalist Michael Shuman. The pair also incorporated the Japanese art of Kintsugi, which traditionally involves repairing broken objects while highlighting the damage, into the album\u2019s overall creative approach.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery song sounds like it\u2019s from a different world. And that\u2019s on purpose, because it\u2019s trying to stitch together all these emotions revolving around love, lust, foolishness, and the sort of wisdom that comes as a gift from all that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The track listing for \u2018Perfecth\u2019 runs as follows:<\/p>\n

01 \u2013 \u201cIt\u2019s Only Love\u201d
02 \u2013 \u201cInsignificant Other\u201d
03 \u2013 \u201cWhere The Goth Girls At?\u201d
