Queens of the Stone Age to drop new album in 2017

Queens of the Stone Age to drop new album in 2017

Josh Homme and Co. will be back in 2017 with the follow-up to 2013’s "…Like Clockwork".

The news comes from Mastodon’s Troy Sanders, who is in Gone Is Gone with QOTSA’s Troy Van Leeuwen. Sanders let it slip, talking to "Rolling Stone" that QOTSA have a new album coming this year:

I like to think none of us needs this band, but we all really want this band. When that’s the mentality, this is special to the four of us. Otherwise, we wouldn’t dedicate the first week of 2017 to working on this band. For example, Queens of the Stone Age, Mastodon and At the Drive-In have all been recording, and we all have new records coming out this year. We’ve all been extremely busy writing and recording, and we’re about to get super busy touring the world. So I believe we’re all fulfilled to a certain degree with all we have going on.

During summertime, Homme had revealed that QOTSA was “next on his schedule,” adding, “Same lineup, we’re locked in”. Then Van Leeuwen said the band planned to hit the studio before year’s end - but it didn't happen.
