Queens of the Stone Age have unveiled their highly anticipated eighth studio album, In Times New Roman, set to release on June 16th through Matador. This album is a raw and at times brutal journey, definitely not for the faint-hearted. Yet, it stands as one of the most beautiful and rewarding entries in their remarkable discography.
Led by founder Joshua Homme, the album features his most incisive lyrics to date, complemented by the unmistakable QOTSA sound. Each track is enhanced with new and unexpected elements, showcasing the band’s evolution. In Times New Roman invites listeners to explore beauty beneath the scars, as Homme and his bandmates deliver music that resonates deeply with their personal experiences.
As the band reflects on their own feelings of alienation, they’ve created an album that resonates with anyone searching for a sense of belonging. The lyrics poignantly ask, “The world’s gonna end in a month or two,” prompting listeners to consider what they want to do with their remaining time.
Recorded at Homme’s own Pink Duck and mixed by Mark Rankin, In Times New Roman will be available on all digital platforms, as well as on vinyl and CD starting June 16th. The stunning artwork and double LP gatefold packaging are crafted by long-time collaborator Boneface, making this a must-have for collectors.
Available in multiple colors including black, green, red, silver, and blue, this limited edition vinyl is among the best limited edition vinyl records of the year.
