Queens of the Stone Age (album)
1998 studio album by Queens of the Stone Age
Summary
Queens of the Stone Age is the debut studio album by American rock band Queens of the Stone Age, released on September 22, 1998, through Loosegroove Records in the United States, Roadrunner Records internationally, and Man's Ruin Records on vinyl. It was primarily written and recorded in April 1998 by founding member Josh Homme and his former Kyuss bandmate Alfredo Hernández, with Hernández playing drums and Homme singing and playing the rest of the instruments. Homme also produced the album alongside Joe Barresi. Bassist Nick Oliveri, also a former member of Kyuss, would join the band by the time of the album's release. Queens of the Stone Age received generally positive reviews from critics, who placed it in the stoner rock genre and drew comparisons to krautrock bands such as Neu! and Can, as well as to Kyuss and other metal bands.
