Oh boy, are you guys ready for this? 🤯 Queens of the Stone Age just dropped a new music video for their single “Where The Goth Girls At?” and I’m still trying to process the sheer magnitude of awesomeness that is this song. I mean, who wouldn’t want to watch a video featuring comedian Steve Agee, dancer/artist Scarlett Kapella, and singer/actress Lou Lou Safran, all while Josh Homme and the gang do their thing? It’s like a match made in heaven, or in this case, a match made in the depths of a goth teenager’s bedroom. 🖤
The video, directed by Christopher Gruse and Tony Wolski, is a wild ride that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about goth culture. But hey, who needs to understand it when you can just rock out to the sick beats and riffs that QOTSA are serving up? The song is the third single from their upcoming album “Perfecth”, which is set to drop on October 30 via Matador Records. I mean, it’s not like we’ve been waiting for new QOTSA music or anything… 🙄
According to Josh Homme, the song is all about his youth in the suburbs of Palm Desert, California, and the goth girls who worked at the local JCPenney. Because, you know, that’s exactly what you think of when you hear the words “goth girls” – JCPenney. 🤣 “Watching the goth girls working the counter at JCPenney and giving goth makeovers to the old ladies, that’s when I knew the only place I want to be is where the goth girls at,” Homme stated. “Teenage love, ain’t it grand?” Yeah, because nothing says “teenage love” like a bunch of goth kids hanging out at the mall.
The Album: A Masterpiece of Chaos
But enough about the music video, let’s talk about the album. “Perfecth” is the ninth studio album from QOTSA, and it’s a real doozy. With songs like “Easy Street”, “Insignificant Other”, and “Where The Goth Girls At?”, this album is shaping up to be a masterpiece of chaos. I mean, who needs cohesion when you can just throw a bunch of different styles and genres together and hope for the best? 🤪 It’s like they say: “nothing in this world is perfect, but everything seems to be ‘perfecth'”. Yeah, because that’s exactly what I want in an album title – a made-up word that sounds like a cross between “perfect” and “heh”.
The album was produced by Homme and bandmember Michael Shuman, and it features a bunch of different guests, including Nikki Lane on the song “Easy Street”. Because, you know, QOTSA wasn’t already cool enough, they had to go and collaborate with a country singer. 🤠 But hey, who are we to complain? The result is a song that’s equal parts country, rock, and goth, with a healthy dose of sarcasm and wit thrown in for good measure.
The deluxe edition of the album is available for pre-order now, and it comes with all sorts of cool stuff, including handwritten lyrics, stationary, and a bespoke piece of art. Because, you know, what every QOTSA fan needs is a fancy art piece to go along with their music. 🎨 I mean, it’s not like we’re just buying the album for the music or anything… 🙄
