Lullabies to Paralyze [PA] by Queens Of The Stone Age

Pros: A simply amazing album from instruments to arrangement and from vocals and creativity.

Cons: .

The Bottom Line: Queens of the Stone Age reminds me what rock and roll is really about. Lullabies to Paralyze is one of the most impressive rock albums of the last few years.

Review: Songs for the Deaf renewed my faith in rock n’ roll. In 2002, the whole scene was well on its way to taking a permanent nose dive into oblivion. When all star outfit Queens of the Stone Age released their outstanding third album I was reminded of ...

Pros: i find it spiffy

Cons: you may find it squiffy

The Bottom Line: -

Review: You know how sometimes you hear over and over again how exceptional an album is, and you put off buying it because you don't want to be disappointed, and when you finally do buy it, you find it's good, but it doesn't live up to the hype at all? Queens of ...

Pros: A tremendously impressive rock album, captivating from start to finish

Cons: One or two songs that fail to excite

The Bottom Line: This is a remarkably great album that shows the band at the apex of their creative peak and how fine a group they actually are.

Review: Queens of the Stone Age’s albums not only have some of the finest and most powerful rock songs you are likely to hear this millennium, but they also have these huge, sweeping and cavernous rock epics that are both simultaneously hypnotising as they ...

Pros: Good variety, well produced, flows almost perfectly from track to track,

Cons: Oliveri's talent is missed, not much else.

The Bottom Line: Go out and buy it. Amazing follow up to their last album, and will get you looking for all their older CDS just so you can have more.

Review: After the last Queens of the Stone Age album "Songs for the Deaf", many people thought it would be hard to follow up with something as good, if not better than that CD. This CD does not dissapoint. Sure, you may be thinking Dave Grohl's absence on ...

Pros: diverse; complex yet accessible; no songs fail to live up to their potential

Cons: almost guaranteed not to please everyone on every track

The Bottom Line: Possibly QOTSA's greatest album, or if not, it's totally mind-blowing anyway. It makes no compromises, which is bad news for some people and great news for the rest of us.

Review: Well, I guess there's no avoiding it. Everybody's got to talk about it. The band has changed. Nick Oliveri, bassist and vocalist on QOTSA's second and third album, was fired in 2004. Note that he wasn't on the first album. Well, he did appear on the ...

Pros: Lots of variety, Gets better with time, Departure from "Songs for the Deaf".

Cons: No Dave Grohl on drums, Lacks the hard hitting style of "Songs for the Deaf".

The Bottom Line: One of the best rock albums of 2005(so far) go get it.

Review: Queens Of The Stone Age are: Josh Homme: Vocals, Guitar. Joey Castillo:Drums, Percussion. Troy Van Leeuwen:Bass, Guitar. Alain Johannes:Bass, Guitar. Track Listing: 1. This Lullaby 2. Medication 3. Everybody Knows ...

Pros: Very flowing vivid album with a distinctive edge on the QOTSA sound

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: Everything that you need is right here, and the second its over you will just start from the beginning again.

Review: Two things came out of Queens of the Stone Age most critically successful album, Songs for the Deaf, a much broader fan base and their longest standing lineup. Add this to the advantageous Josh Homme and you have a receipt for a dynamic album built on ...

Pros: flawless sound and recording.

Cons: not as trippy as "rated r"

Review: thank god they (josh) didn't screw this up. that was my apprehension building up to the release of this cd. i had "found" queens through an interview with eddie vedder and went back and bought their first two cds along with "songs". Love the first ...

Pros: Fun, cool, rocking, experimental...

Cons: Loses momentum after a while

The Bottom Line: Don't stay paralyzed: Check out Queens Of The Stone Age.

Review: We've heard enough about the turmoil inside Queens of the Stone Age. All I want to talk about here is the music because after breakups, makeups, quittings, firings, whatever, the music is all we're left with. QOTSA's follow-up to their stellar 2002 ...

Pros: continuing the queens of the stone age success story very nicely indeed

Cons: if you think about it, they probably could've made a better job of some stuff

The Bottom Line: -

Review: It's fairly apparent that most bands, when given any sort of positive attention from the mainstream music moguls (oooh, lovely alliteration there, and we've barely even started…), will adapt their sound in order to better suit the needs of their now ...
