Queens of the Stone Age returned to Cardiff last night for their first headline show in the capital for over twenty years, and it was worth the wait!
The sell out show at Cardiff Castle, part of their End is Nero tour in support of their new album, In Times New Roman…, will be one of only a few shows in the UK this year, with the veteran rockers also headlining The Other Stage at Glastonbury on Sunday.
QOTSA remain frontman Josh Homme’s longest and most consistent musical outlet. He’s regarded as one of the most influential rock guitarists of his generation, developing a unique style of melodic yet deeply heavy rock with desert rock titans Kyuss. In the wake of their demise, and after a brief spell with the Screaming Trees, Hommes formed QOTSA in the late 90s but has continued working on a host of side projects and collaborating with legends as diverse as Iggy Pop, Mavis Staples and Elton John.
