Villains

Queens of the Stone Age

A sharp, danceable pivot into glam-rock territory. High-gloss production meets staccato riffs and a sinister, velvet-smooth croon.

Find on Amazon

It's the Queens of the Stone Age album you can actually dance to without losing the heavy riffs.

A sinister, high-gloss swagger that balances winking humor with a dark, rhythmic intensity.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The two-minute slow-burn synth intro of Feet Don't Fail Me that suddenly snaps into a precise, driving stomp.
The frantic, 1950s-on-speed guitar soloing during the bridge of Head Like a Haunted House.
The way the dry, hand-clapped rhythm section in The Way You Used to Do creates a claustrophobic dance floor energy.
