Them Crooked Vultures


John Paul Jones, Dave Grohl and Josh Homme

This is a band I want to check out!  I heard about it first over at Circle of Fits, then a friend sent me this article.

"That their output delivers a punch to the gut can only be seen as the fulfillment of a promise. The band doesn’t feel like naked derivation, but its parentage is hammered home with every fat and bruising riff."

    Barbara,

    I was at that show! It was awesome! Awesome awesome awesome! I didn't do it justice on my blog, either. But it was awesome! JPJ was awesome! November 23rd is supposedly when the album comes out, and I can tell you, if they don't include all 90 minutes from the show, I'll be disappointed because it was mind-blowing.

  2. I hope that they plan some dates in Canada (specifically Ottawa) I really want to see these guys before I get squished by a bus.

  3. I saw these guys on October 8 at the Fillmore in Detroit. In a word, these guys were "heavy". The sound was very influenced by Queens of the Stone Age for obvious reasons. They were tight, loud, and really looked like they were having fun... just a great show. Can't wait for the studio release.
