Regular Josh

I hate when people ask me about my favorite band because I cant’ pick just one band between all the music that I usually hear that, in fact, is extremely varied. I guess the best option will be to talk about a musician that I’ve recently started to admire in a ridiculous way.
Josh Homme is the vocalist and guitarist of Queens of the Stone Age, an American rock band formed in 1997. But this is not the only band in which you could hear him. Josh had been part of a series of bands and musical projects since 90’s. That’s why I used the word “ridiculous”, I mean not everyone would hear every single song that Josh has released.
Also, Josh is the forerunner of several music genres like the Stoner Rock and the Desert Rock. I think it’s pretty awesome that one single person can be responsible of the creation of new music styles and even more so in our age, where everything looks like another thing (the obsession of classify every single thing). In this order, Josh Homme is able to play under another name and we could always know that is him.
Since 2009 he is playing in Them Crooked Vultures, a “supergroup” formed by Josh, Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters) and John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin). Obviously, I can’t stop hearing them. And that’s why I want to share this song with you guys <3 name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
