I think that Rated R is QOTSA’s best album, I first heard “The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret” on cable-DMX, and it spun my head around; I went out and bought the album right away. NO filler on this album, and each song different from the other. Once Nick left, the band was not as good, IMO. His absolutely dangerous bass groove on “Better Living Through Chemistry” is what drives the song and builds the tension.

I found your blog about a month ago, I really like reading your reviews and memories.

Hey, I really enjoy reading your blog. I even like reading reviews about albums I haven’t listened to, just because you have a really warm and engaging writing style. The personal touch to music reviews is something the mainstream is really lacking, and it makes your blog really enjoyable to read.

Thanks.

I find most people don’t listen to QOTSA for the lyrics – a lot of it is throwaway rhymes. This is one band where it’s all about the music.

Your QOTSA reviews are spot-on.

I can’t relate to much of the lyrical content on their records, but musically speaking, it’s right up my alley. I’ve become a *much* bigger fan since reading your reviews, so THANK YOU.

Into The Fade has some of the creamiest guitar tones I’ve ever heard. Love.

(Also, I love Grooveshark and it’s great to see you using it now for your embedding. And their color scheme matches perfectly!)
