Categorize them as you may; Psychedelic rock, hard rock, alternative rock, art or desert rock.. Queens of the Stone Age (QOTSA) pours everything into their latest project with “Like Clockwork.” For “old schoolers” like myself, QOTSA harkens back to an era when iconic talents such as Starship, David Byrne, Bowie and a few notable others dominated the musical landscape. With renewed relationships with the likes of prior contributor Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters) and collaborations with Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails), Brody Dalle and Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters) and, Elton John influencing every note, the latest Matador release resonates with a haunting return to sounds that remind us “gray hairs” of Iron Butterfly’s “In A Gadda Da Vida.” Like Clockwork is a self-produced work and well worth a listen for any Rock Connoisseur.
