Foreigner are finally heading into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, after being eligible for induction for more than 20 years. The legendary rock act was announced on Sunday night (April 21st) as part of the institution’s Class of 2024 alongside Ozzy Osbourne, Cher, and more.
While truly deserving, Foreigner may have been helped out by a Mark Ronson-led campaign (see below) featuring Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, Slash, Chad Smith, and Jack Black calling for the hit-making classic rock band to be inducted this year.

Guitarist Mick Jones acknowledged the honor with a statement listing the band’s fellow classic members Lou Gramm, Dennis Elliot, Al Greenwood, Rick Wills, the late Ed Gagliardi, and the late Ian McDonald.

Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme’s benefit concert for the Sweet Stuff Foundation on Wednesday (March 20th) at The Belasco in Los Angeles was an epic event. One of the many highlights was his son Ryder’s band Vivant performing classics by Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.
As we reported on Thursday, “Josh Homme & Friends: A Benefit for the Sweet Stuff Foundation” featured a drum-off between Dave Grohl and Chad Smith, plus performances from Beck, St. Vincent, and more, not to mention comedy from Sarah Silverman and Bill Burr.
Vivant, featuring 12-year-old Ryder Homme behind the drum kit alongside his fellow young bandmates, rocked Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” (watch below) and Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs.”
Back in December at another benefit show, Ryder played tambourine onstage alongside his dad and Queens of the Stone Age members Troy Van Leeuwen and Michael Shuman for a rendition...

When a friend calls, Dave Grohl answers. And when that particular friend is Josh Homme, calling to ask him to make an appearance at the Josh Homme & Friends benefit concert, the Foo Fighters frontman jumped straight into rehearsal mode. Grohl’s process started with pulling up the lyrics to Doja Cat’s rebellious single “Paint the Town Red” and concluded with him penning a completely new song specifically for Homme.
“I spent a couple of days trying to figure out like, ‘What the fuck am I gonna play?’” Grohl told...

Josh Homme hosted an all-star benefit concert in support of his Sweet Stuff Foundation at the Belasco in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Over the course of the evening, he welcomed friends and collaborators to the stage, including Dave Grohl, Beck, St. Vincent, The Kills, Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys, Jesse Hughes of Eagles of Death Metal, Bill Burr, and more.
Not surprisingly, Grohl provided several highlights. He went head to head against Smith in a drum off, and briefly attempted to sing a duet of Simon & Garfunkel’s “Sound of Silence” with Homme. Later, after joking that he attempted to learn how to play Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Read” to no avail, he instead debuted an entirely new song he wrote about Homme.
Other notable moments included tennis legend John McEnroe briefly trying his hand at covering Beck’s “Fume,” before...

Josh Homme addressed the possibility of a Them Crooked Vultures comeback during a fan Ama on reddit, saying he would love to get the band back together — but ultimately it’s not his call.
In a response to a fan who asked whether Vultures would ever record a new album, Homme explained, “It’s sort of not my job to put Vultures back together, that’s Dave [Grohl]’s job. My job is to dance around, write words, and try to write some music.”
That said, Homme continued, “I really want to — Dave knows this. I really want Vultures to get back together and do one more round.”
Them Crooked Vultures, which featured Homme, Grohl, Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones, and Alain Johannes, released their first and only album to date in November 2009. They toured extensively behind the release, but then went their separate ways in 2010. In 2022, the group briefly...

Founding Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones has revealed that he has been battling Parkinson’s disease for the past several years. The legendary rocker disclosed his health status in an open letter to fans.
Jones is the lone original member still left in Foreigner, who are among the nominees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this year. In recent years, he’s rarely performed with the band, and has now disclosed that it’s his struggle with Parkinson’s disease that has kept him off the stage.
On Foreigner’s social media pages, Jones wrote the following:
“Fans will have become very aware that for some time now, I have not been performing onstage with the band. Several years ago, I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. I want everyone to know that I am doing alright. However, I’ve always liked to be at my best when performing onstage,...

Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme revealed earlier this year that he was diagnosed with cancer in 2022, and subsequently underwent surgery as a method of treatment. In a new interview, the singer-guitarist reports that he’s gotten the “all clear” as far as his battle with cancer is concerned.
“I’m good. I’m all clear,” said Homme when asked by ITV about his current health status, adding that he’s feeling “the best I’ve felt all year.”
Homme also opened up the recent losses of several people who were close to him. “A lot of people have passed away near [me], nine people in the last … year and a half now.” While he didn’t name any specific people, among his close friends who have passed away in that time were his former Queens of the Stone Age bandmate Mark Lanegan and Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins.

Queens of the Stone Age launched their first North American headlining tour in five years on Thursday evening (August 3rd) at the Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
The outing, dubbed “The End Is Nero Tour,” is broken up into in two legs, with this first one running through August 19th, and the second one launching on September 16th and wrapping up with an October 8th gig at the Aftershock festival in Sacramento, California. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster or StubHub.
Frontman Josh Homme recently said he’s disappointed when bands don’t play their hits, and he certainly didn’t let down Qotsa fans by kicking off the show with perhaps the band’s best-known song, “No One Knows.”
The 18-song set also included four songs off Qotsa’s new album, In Times New Roman…, alongside favorites like “My God Is the Sun,” “Little Sister,” and “Go With the Flow.

Queens of the Stone Age have reunited with frequent collaborator Liam Lynch for a new music video for In Times New Roman… cut “Negative Space.” Check out the visual below.
“Negative Space” fuses the Queens of the Stone Age of past and present; Josh Homme and Troy Van Leeuwen play the unique blend of scratchy and slide guitars that made them hard rock titans back in the early aughts, but Michael Shuman hammers out a bass line more akin to the band’s recent experiments in funk.
Lynch described his inspiration for the “Negative Space” clip in a statement. “Acceptance is lonely, messy, and tough, especially when it’s all that is left,” he said. “This video takes place between the end and a beginning. It’s the desperate and lost, message-in-a-bottle emotions that are tossed out and let float away. No action required.”

While it’s understandable that bands want to play the “new stuff” when they go out on tour, most fans still want to hear the hits. Count Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme among those who think music acts should perform their “big songs” in concert.
While appearing on the Tuna on Toast With Stryker podcast (as transcribed by Ultimate Classic Rock), Homme remarked, “I understand that I’m always going to play [Qotsa hit] ‘No One Knows’ because I still like playing that song and that’s something that it’s an agreement with the audience. I assume that this is a part of coming here to see us, and here you go.”
He continued, “When there’s bands that don’t want to play their big song or their big songs, I always think it’s a little c*nty to do that. Acting like a song that...

Queens of the Stone Age helped close out Glastonbury with a scorching career-spanning set on Sunday evening.
Over the course of their 15-song performance, Qotsa mixed greatest hits with material from their latest album, In Times New Roman… The setlist included songs like “Go With the Flow,” “The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret,” “Little Sister,” and “No One Knows,” plus new tracks “Paper Machete” and “Carnavoyeur.”
Early on in the set, frontman Josh Homme encouraged the Glastonbury crowd to “fuck shit up together… This is it motherfuckers. This is your last night!” Many fans responded in kind — especially during set closer “A Song for the Dead,” when a massive mosh pit broke out. (A special shout out to the guy in the brown shirt screen captured above.)
Additionally, Homme dedicated the band’s performance of “In the Fade” to frequent collaborator Mark Lanegan, who passed away last year.

Queens of the Stone Age’s music has never been short on bad vibes and lacerating observations, so the significant bile quotient of In Times New Roman…, the band’s eighth studio full-length, comes as no real surprise — especially when you consider what Qotsa leader Josh Homme has experienced in the years since the band’s last album, 2017’s Villains. His divorce from singer Brody Dalle led to a rough public custody child battle, and he recently revealed that he has cancer. Homme has never been one to deny his emotions,...

Queens of the Stone Age are back with In Times New Roman…, their first album since 2017. Listen to the record below via Apple Music or Spotify.
A lot’s gone down since Qotsa dropped their funky, Mark Ronson-produced last album, Villains. We’ve lived through a global pandemic, and frontman Josh Homme navigated a messy divorce — and received a cancer diagnosis. These events influenced the sounds and themes of In Times New Roman…, which features classic Queens guitar and some of Homme’s darkest lyrics to date.
Consequence caught up with Homme to discuss the new LP, his desire to “be like Dr. Jekyll,” and why “loud is important.” You can read the full conversation here. Additionally, Homme guested on a recent episode of Kyle Meredith With…, where he shared his approach to creating “music for all stereotypes,” and explained how the band’s new album is essentially soundtracking his own life.

On Friday, Queens of the Stone Age will return with their first album in six years, In Times New Roman… In anticipation, the band has shared one final preview in the form of “Paper Machete.” Take a listen below.
In an upcoming interview with Consequence, frontman Joshua Homme spoke at length about the song and its connection to past Qotsa tracks like “Little Sister” and “Regular John.”
“There’s some classic us here… Like, that lead line that’s going through the song, that’s such quintessential Dean [Fertita] — it’s very him, the style and the way it’s played. And Troy [Van Leeuwen] was saying, ‘I’m going to do a lead that’s the exact tone as ‘Little Sister.” I guess we call them cousins, like ‘Little Sister’ is related to ‘Paper Machete’ — and it’s also related to our first song, ‘Regular John,’ all the way back.”

Josh Homme has revealed that he was diagnosed with cancer in 2022. While he didn’t get into specifics, the Queens of the Stone Age frontman says he underwent successful surgery to remover the cancer, and is still in the process of healing.
In a new interview with Revolver, Homme talked about the difficulties of the past few years, which have included the pandemic, the deaths of close friends, and a messy legal battle with ex-wife Brody Dalle of The Distillers. As it turned out, he privately battled cancer, as well.

Queens of the Stone mastermind Josh Homme has taken the band’s dusty hard rock from generator-powered shows in Palm Desert all the way to mainstream festival stages. The group’s early revolving door of members solidified into a core quintet that pushed their fuzz rock into weird new places and, eventually, something akin to pop respectability on albums like 2017’s Villains. Regardless of how one feels about Qotsa’s musical development, though, no one could accuse them of repeating themselves. At least not until In Times New Roman….
While the desert rockers’ eighth album abandons the glossy dance-rock of its predecessor, it doesn’t do so in favor of exploring new styles, sounds, or textures. The subtle slapback guitar that opens the album’s first track, “Obscenery,” immediately recalls the retro-futurism of 2007’s Era Vulgaris. The sputtering garage-rock song hops along in a characteristic stop-start staccato, as spacey synths hover ominously.

Queens of the Stone Age are back with the new single “Carnavoyeur,” the latest sample of their upcoming album In Times New Roman…
“Carnavoyeur,” the follow-up to the new album’s lead single “Emotion Sickness,” is built off a steady rock groove, punctuated by bursting staccato chords. As the track progresses, it becomes more intricate and layered, culminating into a sweeping cacophony of sound near its end complete with staggering strings and some psychedelic production.
Thematically, “Carnavoyeur” seems to reckon with life’s natural ebbs and flows, finding power in accepting the things that can’t be changed: “When there’s nothing I can do, I smile,” vocalist Josh Homme sings in a darkly sweet croon, sounding equal parts sinister and restrained as he watches the world around him turn to dust. “We live, we die, we fail, we rise/ I’m a vulture, so I hear goodbyes.” Listen to “Carnavoyeur” below.

Queens of the Stone Age have announced In Times New Roman…, their first album since 2017’s Villains. The LP is out June 16th via Matador Records, while lead single “Emotion Sickness” is out now.
In Times New Roman… was recorded at Qotsa frontman Josh Homme’s Pink Duck, as well as Rick Rubin’s Shangri-La studio. While Villains had a funk groove thanks to Mark Ronson, the band produced its follow-up on their own, with Mark Rankin handling its mixing. The record will be available on streaming, CD, and a variety of colored vinyl, and pre-orders are ongoing.
“Emotion Sickness” feels like a natural progression for Queens of the Stone Age, who over time have paired their growling guitars with a whimsical swing in their step rather than a hard rock scream. “Use once and destroy/ Single servings of pain/ A dose of emotion sickness I just can’t shake,...

Pussy Riot’s Nadya Tolokonnikova has been placed on Russia’s most-wanted list for allegedly “offending against religious feeling”.
The news was first reported by the Russian news outlet Mediazona, which is founded by Pussy Riot.
The report confirms that Tolokonnikova, 33, is facing criminal charges, but does not specify any details of the case.
Earlier this month, Russian human rights attorney Pavel Chikov said that Tolokonnikova is being charged with “offending against religious feeling,” according to Meduza.
The news was reported a few days after Pussy Riot released footage of their latest protest video called “Putin’s Ashes.”
In the video, Pussy Riot burned a painting of the Russian president and then stabbed the earth while watching his ashes fall.
According to documents verified by Pitchfork, Tolokonnikova is under investigation for some images on her Instagram account that the Russian government deems offensive to Christianity.

Charlie Puth has been called out after comments he made about the meaning of his 2017 song, “Attention” were resurfaced.
Last week, the 31-year-old singer mentioned the song in a since-deleted tweet. He also hinted at the supposed meaning of the tune in the post, shared via BuzzFeed, as he wrote: “’Attention’ is about what you think it’s about.”
“Attention” is widely believed to be about Puth’s rumoured relationship with fellow pop singer Selena Gomez, to whom he was romantically linked in 2015, after she split briefly from her then-boyfriend, Justin Bieber.
Gomez and Puth released a single together in 2016, “We Don’t Talk Anymore”.
Since Puth shared then deleted his tweet, fans have resurfaced a 2017 interview he gave where he discussed the lyrics of “Attention”.

“I don’t want to [do it]. They’ll send me angry emails, and I don’t want to get them,” she says.

In 2019, the lead singer of the Distillers, Brody Dalle, filed for divorce after 14 years of marriage with the lead singer of Queens Of The Stone Age, Josh Homme. Since the split, the two have been trying to civilly abide by the 50/50 custody agreement for their three children while keeping it out of the public’s eye, but in 2020 things took a turn for the worse.
In a new statement, Homme revealed that Dalle had violated the agreement by, “withholding the children from seeing their father. Despite multiple orders by the Los Angeles Family Court to return the children, as well as being found in contempt of court, Dalle continued to violate the custody agreement.”
According to the statement, things continued to get ugly in 2021 when Dalle tried to file a restraining order against Homme on behalf of their two sons. The court denied the action, and, “It has since been...

Josh Homme has issued a lengthy statement addressing the custody battle over his three children with ex-partner Brody Dalle.
The Queens of the Stone Age frontman and fellow musician Dalle were married between 2005 and 2019, and share three children together: a 17-year-old daughter and two sons, 11 and seven.
Over the past two years, the former couple have been involved in various legal disputes involving their children. In 2021, Dalle was sentenced to 60 hours of community service after being found guilty of withholding their youngest son from court-mandated time with Homme.
Now, Homme’s representatives say he and his family have been granted a restraining order against Dalle.
“Recent actions by Brody Dalle and [her current boyfriend] Gunner Foxx have not only caused the children emotional harm, but have also put them in great danger,” the statement alleged.

The split between Homme and Dalle made headlines in recent years, with TMZ reporting in September 2021 that their daughter filed a restraining order against Homme, and that their sons attempted to do the same. The new statement reveals that Homme is the sole legal guardian of the former couple’s minor children, and insists that the restraining-order paperwork was actually filed by Dalle’s current boyfriend, Gunner Foxx, with Dalle admitting that she knew Foxx forged her signature on at least one of the documents.

“We also know that you, the fans, meant as much to Taylor as he meant to you. And we know that when we see you again – and we will soon – he’ll be there in spirit with all of us every night,” the statement added.

When Nikki Lane was in eighth grade in Greenville, South Carolina, her basketball coach approached the chalkboard and scribbled “Complacency Kills” for her and her fellow middle-schoolers to digest. It lit a fire under the future country singer.
“Oh, that just burned me,” Lane tells Rolling Stone. “I grew up broke. I wanted money. I didn’t want to stress my mom. [From that moment], it was, ‘We’ll figure it out, just keep going.’”
And go and go and go. A day before Lane’s 39th birthday last month, the country singer-songwriter...

“Miley, it’s Taylor. Heard you’re moving — waah!” Hawkins says in the recording, mock crying over the prospect of losing Cyrus as a neighbour.
“I’m listening to ‘Photograph’ by Def Leppard,” Hawkins adds. “You could kill that one.”
A personal request from the legend himself. #TaylorHawkins my friend, my idol…. My neighbor. Growing up on a farm I never could see the light of another house nearby, but living by Taylor for the years that I did out in LA were some of the most fun times of my life.

Brian Ray, a familiar sight to Paul McCartney fans as a 20-year multi-instrumentalist stalwart in the superstar’s band, has a dream for making Palm Springs a destination on the routing of touring rockers, as well as more of a cultural hub for the arts in general. It’s a dream whose destination is well in sight. He’s helping with the already partially funded campaign to restore and reopen the Plaza Theatre, a 1936 gem that has sat unpolished, if not quite completely dilapidated, through eight years of notable dormancy right in the heart of Palm Springs’ famous shopping district.
Since he moved to the desert part-time four years ago, Ray has often thought about what could be, or what could have been, when it comes to the Plaza. It hasn’t been fit for ages to use as a hub for the annual Palm Springs Film Festival, as it...

The show continued with performances by Joan Jett, Chevy Metal, Kesha, Coattail Riders, Mark King, Rufus Taylor, Joe Walsh and the James Gang, Cyrus, Mötley Crüe, and Def Leppard among others.
