Queens of the Stone Age have reunited with frequent collaborator Liam Lynch for a new music video for In Times New Roman… cut “Negative Space.” Check out the visual below.
“Negative Space” fuses the Queens of the Stone Age of past and present; Josh Homme and Troy Van Leeuwen play the unique blend of scratchy and slide guitars that made them hard rock titans back in the early aughts, but Michael Shuman hammers out a bass line more akin to the band’s recent experiments in funk.
Lynch described his inspiration for the “Negative Space” clip in a statement. “Acceptance is lonely, messy, and tough, especially when it’s all that is left,” he said. “This video takes place between the end and a beginning. It’s the desperate and lost, message-in-a-bottle emotions that are tossed out and let float away. No action required.”
This evening, Queens of the Stone Age begin their North American tour in support of their latest LP. Phantogram and The Armed support the first half of the dates, while Viagra Boys and Jehnny Beth open up the latter. Grab tickets to a show via here.
