Produced by Mark Ronson?

That's unfortunate.

kris. · Jun 14, 2017

Cooool. Hope it can live up to Like Clockwork. Interesting choice of producer, though, I guess.

I have those headphones Mark is wearing.

infiniteloop · Jun 14, 2017

but wheeeennnnnnn

jstripes · Jun 14, 2017

Mark Ronson? How's that gonna work?

Undrey · Jun 14, 2017

That video is funny and I'm really excited for the album. It'll be interesting to see how it fares to Like Clockwork.

Alpende · Jun 14, 2017

That snippet was great. Cannot wait for the record, Ronson will do fine.

Osahi · Jun 14, 2017

Just want to know if Lanegan is on this or not.

GeeTeeCee · Jun 14, 2017

Goddamn that snippet is strong.

Username1198 · Jun 14, 2017

1) fucking hyped
2) whose mark ronson?

wesleyshark · Jun 14, 2017

Whheeennn

Affeinvasion · Jun 14, 2017

Getting a Them Crooked Vultures vibe from that song clip...and that's not a bad thing.

greyshark · Jun 14, 2017

That video was hilarious - can't wait for the new album.

AgentOtaku · Jun 14, 2017

Whoa

Faster Queens plz.... Clockwork was a drag

Geist- · Jun 14, 2017

Hyped for this, there hasn't been a QotSA album I haven't loved.

Ninhead · Jun 14, 2017

Snippet sounds like Smooth Sailing part 2. That's a very good thing.

yyzjohn · Jun 14, 2017

I absolutely love Like Clockwork, hope this one doesn't disappoint.

Yup I still listen to it daily.

I appear missing is my top 3 favorite QOTSA song. Such an amazing track.

Glad QOTSA has a lot of gaf fans, I can't wait for the QOTSA OT.

GuitarAtomik · Jun 14, 2017

Ronson produced huh? That should be interesting. Like the clip.

Very prominent producer/DJ. More or less responsible for Amy Winehouse's old school sound. Uptown Funk is actually his song and only features Bruno Mars.

Robot Pants · Jun 14, 2017

I must have forgotten.
When did Jon theodore join the band?

That clip is flames

Enoch Root · Jun 14, 2017

I am at work and can't watch the video, so I don't know if the release date is mentioned. Coming Twenty Five. I am assuming August 25th. It is a Friday and most indie releases come out on Fridays I think.

Wish it were MICK Ronson instead (obviously back from the dead).

Why?

NotTheGuyYouKill · Jun 14, 2017

That snippet sounded great. Can't wait.

Always-honest · Jun 14, 2017

Interested. Mark Ronson is a pretty good producer.
Better than Josh Homme. He totally killed the Arctic monkies.

nah, he's cool

kwogfaf · Jun 14, 2017

Got high expectations for this. Like Clockwork is one of their best albums

Steeven · Jun 14, 2017

Like Clockwork and Songs For the Deaf all the way. I am really excited for this. Maybe someday, I Appear Missing will be regarded as a masterpiece of our time, which it surely is.

Mayor_McCheeze · Jun 14, 2017

Love me some QotSA. Best live band I've seen too. Broke out in a jam session in the middle of No One Knows.

He's awful.

Although great if you like utterly banal interpretations of music stolen from someone more talented.

that tracks really makes me want a QOTSA James Bond intro song.

He's not performing with the band, so if your objection stems from his cover/dj work it feels unfounded here. His work with Amy Winehouse was brilliant.

I appear missing is truly a masterpiece love that song can't praise it enough. Glad to see others agree

DaRealMVP · Jun 14, 2017

Wouldn't be surprised if the album sounded a bit like a harder version of this song by Ronson and Kevin Parker. Even the snippet sounds a bit like it.

blue_phazon · Jun 14, 2017

Teaser sounds great. I'm SO ready for this album

Also, I Appear Missing is the GOAT QOTSA song

But he's an excellent producer?

DaRealMVP · Jun 14, 2017

I am also in agreement that I appear missing is one of the goat Queens songs.

I know. I'm saying he's a terrible producer of bland as fuck music he's appropriated from people with talent.

Sora the Cat said:

No.

Uptown Funk is one of the worst songs ever made.

Even worse than the Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum) by The Cheeky Girls.

Rien · Jun 14, 2017

Yep. I appear missing is amazing. Excited for the new album

Oh absolutely

timetokill · Jun 14, 2017

This is gonna be a hard pop album, I feel it. More dance-y, more groovy. I'm hoping for stuff like Smooth Sailing and I Wanna Make It Wit Chu style stuff all over it.

norm9 · Jun 14, 2017

Thought this was going to be about the Queen of the South tv show.

Meier · Jun 14, 2017

Absolutely love Mark Ronson. I'll listen to this for him.

Dilly · Jun 14, 2017

That winking at the end though.

Sorry but "One of the worst songs ever made" sounds like hyperbole.

So you don't like one song he produced? Guy has an amazing record, he's really good.
