Queens of the Stone Age
Queens of the Stone Age
Palm Desert, USRock, Alternative, Metal
4.2bn all-time streams (28 Jul '26)
Queens of the Stone Age emerged from the stoner rock underground of the 1990s to become one of the leading heavy rock bands of the 21st century, a transition sparked by the release of their major-label debut, Rated R, in 2000.
A murky immersion in chemical excess, the album showcased QOTSA's skill in wedding thick, grimy guitars with shape-shifting psychedelia, a blend suited for the desert that frontman Josh Homme called home.
