I need to pick this one up . QOTSA are one of those groups that snuck up on me. Looked up one day and realized that I had 3 of their cd's too. I wanna get 'Rated R' and their debut.

I really love this band. I find that they're kind of ripping off Radiohead in a lot of ways which is a little disappointing. Looking forward to their new disc though.
Oh yeah, try Rated R w/  and some headphones... | |

I started checking out Radio Head about 2 years ago and noticed it (being a QOTSA fan). Then went to the CDs and looked at the dates, Radiohead did it first. It's more in a general sense, with the whole "art-rock" genre, well produced, well placed acoustic guitars...I just see too many similarities and Radiohead did it all first. It's like lets get high and listen to Kid A (for example: "Optimistic") and then let's make some music along that vibe. This is not a slam on QOTSA, I've been a Josh fan since Kyuss, I've got all the Desert Session stuff and all of the B-Sides/Rarieties. They're pretty creative cats but I was just saying the Radiohead thing kind of disappointed me. | |

Where do you hear Radiohead in QOTSA? They sound nothing alike. 
Great album, though. It's probably their most artistic and experimental.  "Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart." - Khalil Gibran | |

It's an observation and if it was one album I might go along with you but it's all of them so whatever. | |

How I could make a reference to this statement on a Prince messageboard, and have it go unnoticed, is completely beyond me. now i know what this is all about. now i know exactly what i am. |
