Josh Homme and Queens of the Stone Age are back with a new live album and in a new interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music he explains the extraordinary nature of its recording and his own personal battle to get back out there following illness.
Thanks to being “old friends” the two slip and slide out on tangents and there’s extra helpings of mutual backslappery and in-jokes aplenty. Meanwhile Lowe’s familiar “Why are you so great and – by association – why am I so great too?” non-invasive questioning style threatens to turn the whole opportunity for a deep and insightful interview into something completely trivial.
