Number 13
Queens of the Stone Age
"Songs for the Deaf"
Released: August 27th 2002
Key Tracks: "No One Knows" / "First It Giveth" / "Go With the Flow"
The band that recorded this album read like this: Josh Homme; Nick Oliveri; Mark Lanegan; Dave Grohl; Alain Johannes. Is it any wonder that "Songs for the Deaf" is an absolute classic?
As well as having essentially a grunge all-stars line up, "Songs for the Deaf" contained some of the Queens' best songs. "Go With the Flow" was pretty much as close to a pop song as the band get, while "No One Knows" is a stoner rock anthem for the ages.
Queens of the Stone Age created a masterpiece of an album, one of the finest pure rock records of the decade.
