The ninth Queens of the Stone Age album, and it arrives at a moment of hard-won clarity for the band. Nine songs mapping different forms of love, family and friends and everyone else, the ones that break you and the ones that bring you back. Insignificant Other is the centerpiece, sprawling and loose and faintly supernatural. Mono catches the headspinning feeling of heartbreak with a mix that slides from mono to stereo and from claustrophobia into widescreen orchestral grandeur. Fearless and boundless, moody and menacing, gentle and strange, often inside the same song. Limited transparent vinyl, exclusive to independent retailers.
