Album Description
Available in:
“Songs for the Deaf” es el tercer álbum de Queens of the Stone Age, publicado en 2002 y producido por Eric Valentine, Homme y Goss. Este es el disco que los inmortaliza. Dave Grohl toma la batería, y con él llega una brutalidad rítmica que empuja cada canción al borde del colapso.
El álbum se plantea como un viaje por las radios del desierto: una odisea psicodélica y sarcástica por los sonidos y excesos de América. “No One Knows” se convierte en su himno universal; “Go with the Flow” y “A Song for the Dead” son avalanchas perfectas de ritmo y distorsión. Las voces se alternan entre Homme y Oliveri, en un juego de ángel y demonio.
Ganó reconocimiento mundial, vendió millones, y convirtió a Queens en el nuevo estándar del rock pesado con cerebro.
User Album Review
Heavy? Yes, but in a clever, camp kind of way. Rock? Definitely.With Dave Grohl behind the drum kit and a bucket full of Sabbath style riffing, it certainly rocks.
2000's Rated R was one of the best post Nirvana american rock albums. It was an elusive, dark, slippery kind of record, a series of pastiches of rock styles past that seemed more real and cut deeper than the posturing of most grunge. Some of it sounded like Metallica, some of it like David Bowie circa The Man Who Sold the World. Lots of people voted it the best album of the year. But then as usual the ground shifted, along came The Strokes and "irony" and "bleak" became strictly last year.
The Queens have responded with typical perversity and produced a CD which is even bleaker than the last one. The shadow of death hangs firmly over its first 30 minutes. At times the wailing witches' chorus and unrelenting tales of hanging trees and murder gets a bit indigestible.
But there's still plenty of head shaking rock action. Nick Oliveri screams his head off in the groovy "Millionaire". Grohl's drum intro on "A Song For The Dead" is better than the rest of the song. "No One Knows" comes across like ZZ Top in a really, really bad mood. Slowly the mood doesn't exactly lighten but at least becomes less brutal, as the second half sets up a series of doomy love songs. "Do It Again" matches a Gary Glitter stomp with the best melody of the album while "Another Love Song" comes as a complete surprise, a perfect piece of gloomy late Sixties pop.
It all depends how you like your rock. If you like it with big airy spaces, lots of affirmation and a nice happy ending you should buy the Coldplay album. But if you like it tricky, claustrophobic but with plenty of swoons and thrills you should get to grips with this big, dense monster of a record.
(Since receiving your comments below, we have corrected the above review - Nick Oliveri screams in Millionaire, not Mark Lanegan - apologies, and thanks for your corrections! - ed)
