Queens of the Stone Age’s latest album, “In Times New Roman,” is their most raw and personal record to date. It chronicles a series of struggles experienced by the band’s lead singer, Josh Homme, including his public divorce and custody battle, the loss of several close friends, and his surgery to remove cancer. He tells Tom how he reflects on his spirituality after facing so many hardships, how his first guitar teacher taught him polka, and why he wanted to play “Let's Dance” by David Bowie at Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert.

When he talked about writing lyrics about a snippet in time, an introvert image, but then discovering parts of oneself, look at dark night of the soul, and seeing a new angles of what that frozen moment was about, was so cool. I think he's a rare kind. Not many can continue to create and innovate like Josh has.

Josh is indeed spiritual. If youve ever been to one his shows, you feel it. He is practically glowing when he gets into the zone. That is an energy you can feel. Its mountainous. Its awe inspiring and scary, funny, and somehow also light at times. I remember the first time my girlfriend and I saw him walk onto the stage in San Francisco. The moment he walked out it felt like everything was in slow motion. It was by design. The tempos and melodic choices he makes are inspired by spirituality. Those generator parties, the ideology of his youth, etc. are all products of the desert. Its a place of profound spirituality. Its not like that punk mentality just came out of nowhere. It’s a real strain of spirituality. It’s instantly hypnotic, and you look up at him and he is embodying that. It’s wild. Grohl has that quality too. I call it the blue aura. Its extremely rare.

So much of his music has gotten me through some of my darkest times. "Fortress" reminds me of my late mother as it came out in the summer when we found out she had cancer and she'd be gone a little over a year later. I knew her fortress would be caving, and I wished I could make her safe in mine while knowing all along all I could do was care for her and give her my love for the time she had left on this earth. And that's pretty much all we can do for anyone, and hope that perhaps someone will care enough about us to do the same. Life is short! QOTSA has been my favorite band since I first heard "If Only" on WSOU (Seton Hall Pirate Radio) late in 1998. Still feels like yesterday and those 25-plus years have flown by so fast...scary fast! Anyway, thanks to Josh for so much great music in that time period...yeah, it gets me by...and will continue to do so until it is time to say "goodbye."
