Huge QotSA fan here.

You wanted news? Here's news...

 

Queens Of The Stone Age have a new drummer. It’s sort of their old drummer. You might recognize him.

His name is Dave Grohl.

 

Moments before Queens Of The Stone Age frontman/nucleus Joshua Homme broke the news to Zane Lowe on BBC’s Radio 1 today that longtime drummer Joey Castillo had left the band, the official QOTSA Facebook account posted a portion of the following photo:

Antiquiet has since gotten confirmation that Grohl is handling drum duties on the new Queens record, which is due in early 2013. In addition to teaming with Homme for the incredible Them Crooked Vultures project, fans will remember that Grohl played on Queens’ most successful and what’s widely considered their best album, 2002′s Songs For The Deaf.

Here’s a taste of what we’ve been missing:

 

 

 

With the Foo Fighters on hiatus, there’s no stopping Grohl from returning as a full fledged member of the band as Queens kicks into touring mode to support their yet-untitled new release. Joey Castillo is a beloved member of the QOTSA family, and while info is still scant on his departure, we enthusiastically wish him well.

Dave Grohl has never been shy about his love for Queens: “Queens Of The Stone Age are the best band I have ever been in – without question,” he said in 2005. “I usually get nervous when I go on stage, but when I was in QOTSA I never got nervous, because I knew the people in the crowd were about to witness the best thing they had ever seen live. I felt like that every single night I played with them. It’s like the best lover you’ve ever had in your life – you don’t have to talk about it, you just do it.”

Welcome back.

QOTSA NAME JON THEODORE AS NEW DRUMMER, ‘…LIKE CLOCKWORK’ TO ALSO FEATURE ALEX TURNER

 

BY FERNANDO SCOCZYNSKI FILHO

After the much-awaited, cryptic announcement of Queens of the Stone Age‘s sixth LP …Like Clockwork last week, comes a more formal note from the band in the form of a press release. Along with confirmation that the record will be out in June, comes a little bit more of detail.

Described by QOTSA mastermind Josh Homme as “an audio commentary of a manic year,” …Like Clockwork was produced by Homme himself and the band, and recorded at his Pink Duck Studio in California. The bit of actual new information in the release comes via the fact that Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner is also on the record, as well as UNKLE’s James Lavelle.

The album also features three drummers: Dave Grohl, as was previously reported; Joey Castillo, the band’s now-former drummer; and Jon Theodore, who played drums for The Mars Volta on their first three records and accompanying tours, as well as One Day As a Lion with Zack De La Rocha of Rage Against The Machine. The announcement below is cryptic in just how much of a role Theodore plays, but it’s our understanding that he is the current active drummer in Queens of The Stone Age.

It’s worth noting that the band’s “official” drummer is still unannounced, as the listed lineup above features only the four members that fans were already aware of – Josh Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen, Michael Shuman and Dean Fertita.

Queens of the Stone Age are reportedly in discussions to turn their recent animated videos into a full movie.

 

Insiders close to the band have claimed that major Hollywood studios have approached them and graphic designer Boneface about a possible feature-length film, NME reports.

Quentin Tarantino

 

Quentin Tarantino and Tim Burton are allegedly being courted for the project.

 

Dave Grohl, Elton John and Alex Turner - who featured on the band's new album ...Like Clockwork - are also wanted to appear in the film.

 

Boneface has created several animated movies for the band's album, comprising 'My God Is The Sun', 'If I Had A Tail', 'Kalopsia', 'I Appear Missing' and 'Keep Your Eyes Peeled'.

 

 

 

Queens of the Stone Age compiled the films for a 15-minute promo for the album.
