Number 21
Them Crooked Vultures
"Them Crooked Vultures"
Released: November 16th 2009
Key Tracks: "Dead End Friends" / "Elephants" / "Caligulove"
The very definition of supergroup. Josh Homme, Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones come together in supersonic fashion to create a supreme blues rock stormer, worthy of all the greatness that the three men have done before.
Songs like "Elephants" are effortless, the sound of three amazingly talented guys letting loose and having fun. Homme's vocals are immense throughout, Grohl's drumming is as powerful as anyone could have hoped. And well, it's John Paul Jones on the bass. And the keys. And backing vocals. Just brilliant.
A treat to fans of any of the component bands. A treat to rock music fans. "Them Crooked Vultures" is just a great album. That is all that can be said.
