Queens of the Stone Age - "Emotion Sickness" 

One of the greatest bands ever, I don't think I'm exaggerating. Their music is complex and layered, but catchy, groovy and poignant. Top notch musicians, can't wait to see them live.

“People come and go On the breeze. For a whole life? Possibly. I don’t really know.” I felt that.

This is definitely not my 28th time in a row listening to this song

This is by far Brody Dalle's greatest contribution to rock music.

Congratulations to the entire QOTSA crew! We've missed you, and we wish you well! I hope Josh is doing well and has sorted out all his personal issues. GLORY TO ROME!!

In 25 years you boys have never disappointed. Tight as ever. Production on point. This is the best true rock band we've had over the last 25 years.

The bass on this song! Incredible!

I love the visuals to the music, so many cool references to Greek mythology: Minotaur, Medusa, Apollo. This band is not only incredibly talented, they are smart. Probably why they're my favourite ❤

23 years a fan, been through this several times already and even with life trampling me to the point I feel nothing, I’m still giddy with fucken excitement at brand new QOTSA like it’s the first day I discovered them. Let’s fucking GOOOOO

This album is going to hit differently. Can't wait for a tour for this Album.

Am I the only one completely obsessed with this song? Feel I watch this video every night! Such a catchy chorus! I honestly think this is one of QOTSA best songs ever and considering how many great ones they have its saying something.

Josh is very very underrated in terms of what amazing catchy (vocal) melodies he can come up with!

Ugh, I say this every time…”I’m only going to listen once or twice because I don’t want it to get old before the album comes out” But it’s SOOO good! I can’t help myself

Looks disgusting. So on point! CANT WAIT FOR THE NEW ALBUM!!!!!!

That chorus is straight out of the 70's! GROOOVY ❤

Possibly the best chorus of your career full of fantastic choruses. Unbelievable.

LONG LIVE THE QUEENS! Every new album is worth the wait

Its new and old at the same time. Absolutely original yet harking back to the older grungey sounds of older albums. Love it.

Main riff has a bit of an Era Vulgaris feel to me. But damn, Homme can still write an absolutely killer chorus.

The whole song but especially the drumming is a masterclass in restraint.

No band has ever meant more to me. Long live Queens!

I don't think I can possibly explain the impact qotsa has had on my life. it has pulled me back up from the lowest point in my life. thanks for saving me and being there for me when no one else was at that point.

i'm forever grateful to qotsa for bringing this song into existence such an amazing song and hits me hard at

I stumbled across this Gem (never heard them before)! I knew Josh's Grandpa, Cap, and I know he'd be proud of him. I could see a note to Josh in that amazing handwriting of his telling him to stay strong. I am a rock-n-roller of the 60s and 70s, and, I find this style incredible. Congratulations for great music and the art in the video is fantastic, too.

I think its safe to say Liam Lynch is one of my favorite music video creators by far

Dude Liam man you absolutely nailed this, fuckin amazing imagery, if you read this then know you are legend!

Gets better with every listen, now it's stuck in my head! Definitely sounds like a return to their roots with motifs from their more recent work.

Since it came out a few weeks ago, I can't get this song out of my head. I was a bit lukewarm at first, but the chorus just infected my brain. Every part of this music video is so hypnotic: the dancers and their choreography, the machete-wielding person, the Mighty Mouse mask-wearing hooligans...everything.

Long Live QOTSA! Seriously, your songs mean a lot to me (and to a lot of other people, as you can see in the comments). Thank you for existing, guys

Absolutely loving the visuals and the sounds so far. Gwory to the Queens

Paper Machete is my fave track on this album but this video made me love this song even more. Liam Lynch never disappoints. I'm obsessed with this video. It's amazing.

I promise I’m not being hyperbolic when I say that this is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard

This has Era Vulgaris vibes and I'm here for it.... thankyou boys this is just what I need You've carried me for more years than I care to admit

Now that I have listened to it for five hours on repeat at work it reminds me of Them Crooked Vultures a lot. If this is anything to go by this may be the most monumental album of their career. It puts me in a good mood instantly and I have high hopes for this one. Who still buys their physical cds? I collect them.

Genuinely think this is one of their best songs. Josh Hommes song/riff writing is unlike anyone else. I always feel like he's trying to punch me through the speakers and I love it!

QOTSA has been my favorite band since 2003 when I first heard their music. They definitely have their own unique style and I will always jam out to their music when possible. Plus, their music helped me when I was at my lowest and kept me motivated for life. Love you guys and keep on rocking!

I'm a huge fan of those triangle-costume dancers and their wacky choreography. Really cool visual effect. Great video for the song all around.

I can't get enough of this tune. . . 🎶🎶 Baby, don't care for me Had to let her go, ohhhh Baby, don't care for me Baby, don't care for me Had to let her go, ohhhh

I swear I thought this was a cover of some 70s song that I had heard before. Unbelievable chorus. I had to look up the writing credits to believe this was an original song. They captured the classic rock sound very well with this one! Excellent!

The band that is always worth the wait.

My favorite band in the whole world. Thank you for blessing us.

Went looking for a Kyuss record in '98. Stumbled on their split EP of Queens and Kyuss. Little did I know i was getting in on the ground floor floor of one of the best bands of all time. Seeing them for the first album with 50 people in Cleveland at Euclid Tavern is still and will aleays be a highlight my 50 rotation around the sun.

The bass is so epic in the chorus

New Hives AND new QOTSA?? Delightful.

IT's so wonderful to hear some new QOTSA. Their music holds a special place in my heart. I don't know. I just dig it deeply. They're a special band.

The video complements so well the band’s mix of brutality, humor, and beauty.

This album is phenomenal and I recommend highly. Rock on friends.

My favorite band of all time! I've been to a bunch of concerts in my lifetime, but nothing beats a qotsa concert.

The drums are amazing! Especially the the bell on the ride cymbal during the chorus 😮 Soo clean

the chorus on this song feels almost angelic, hasnt left my head since it dropped

Can't wait for the rest!! QOTSA best band of the 2000s

Great lyrics, the boys never fail to deliver quality

I am almost 54 and have loved them forever! On my bucket list to see before I die! No other band sounds like them which is what I love!!

There are musical artists who have completely mastered their craft and this song is a prime example!

Best band of the past two decades 🤟🏼 Always on top of their game for music, lyrics, performance, art, videography, attention to detail…stoked for the new album 🔥🔥🔥

Absolutamente incrível! Letra, música, estética, referências. Amo ter qotsa como minha banda favorita.

One of the Greatest songs on the Album.

Thanks Justin Hawkins…..this song IS awesome….and can totally hear Bowie ❤

Got addicted to this chorus 🖤

This band never disappoints, it’s a shame that America doesn’t support rock anymore. They should be huge, should have been huge, YEARS ago!

I learned to drive listening to QOTSA. Realised it was probably not the best move to have the BEST rock music ever playing when driving. Lol.

Liam Lynch is the GOAT making videoclips man, loved him too in Boilermaker from RB

No one else comes close to these guys. QOTSA are bringing the groove back! Love this❤

Same producer of vid as 'Royal Blood - Oblivion' and 'Royal Blood - Boilermaker' ? Thanks QOTSA for the new album! We really need this

"Emotion Sickness" debuted at #2 this week on the New Alternative 40 Chart.

Love the juxtaposition between the two-faced actor carrying what looks like Medusa's head at 3:30 , perhaps what the perspective of the divorce means for Josh, and the hooded actor carrying what looks like a bison's head at 3:28 , perhaps the perspective from Josh's ex. Surely it seems that both sides look happy with the decision to split given the former walking along a beach at sunset/rise and the latter dancing around. The mono/bitonality of the latter's scene's colors sticks out to me compared to the imagery of the former's scene's colors though. I wonder if this also speaks to how Josh thinks his ex sees things in "black" and "white" or two-colors and that, to him, he sees in full/all colors, meaning that the split for him was more "right" or meaningful compared to what his ex saw. I'm sure we all can relate to this in our lives when coming out of a breakup. How we may feel like we're in the right for doing so. The juxtaposition here shows though, I think, that there's similarities to draw in both people's thoughts and feelings at the end of a relationship, and that, even if to the other person the relationship might not seem so important, the end of it might still impact them in it's own way. There's always room to be considerate for others like this, in a relationship and out of one. But a split is sometimes needed to do better in life, and we can see this at the end 4:25 of the song with how the mice are leading the charge in a parade, symbolizing triumph. What do the mice symbolize though I wonder? They show up in both sides of the story in the video.

Sounds like it has some shades of Them Crooked Vultures, I like it!

I had high expectations coming into this video. And they were blown away.

After Josh's kids the chorus to this song is the greatest gift brody ever gave Josh. Arguably the best qotsa..and I looooove love love love the early shit.

Gotta vacuum all the perfume… genius!, no one else can do it, best band in the world

Homme is a genius. Seriously.

QOTSA, Foo Fighters and The Hives all releasing new albums within a 10 week period in 2023 🥹

Personally I think Queens is the most under appreciated group in the musical world.

Why does it sound so energetic yet nostalgic?

dude, mikey on the bass is just so good

Hint of EODM in this one, love it!

This is the absolute BEST video you guys have done so far….. The lyrics, the imagery, the specific imagery you matched at certain lyrics? Brilliant. I am going through a particularly tough soul crushing and life changing experience of loss myself… and this whole thing spoke to me like someone was there experiencing it with me and created a projection of all my thoughts and feelings. It feels like this was made for me. Thank you for being so vulnerable with this piece of art. You don’t know how much I needed it. You’ve blown my mind since Kyuss and early Desert Sessions. You never compromised your realness to the music and I respect that so much. You’re my damn hero Josh ❤

Thanks Brodi for inspiring great music

These guys never cease to amaze me. I feel such strong energy when i listen to their songs. The world needed this band right now. Truly great music is so rare these days.

His divorce and emotions have come out in this album and I can't thank him enough. It's the album you need after a shitty toxic partner

All hail the mighty and diabolic QOTSA for making our lives a SAGA

Greatest rock band on the planet. It’s not even close.

this song is one of their greatest ever. top 10 I'd say

Very excited to hear the new album. This video is on point! Fantastic job by Liam Lynch!

I've had this stuck in my head since it dropped. Great stuff! Gonna have to make it out when Queens hits Chicago.

Came here for Liam Lynch. He never disappoints ❤️

Happy Birthday, Josh! 🎉 I can't get Emotion Sickness outta my head. Playing it on a loop 🖤

I never cease to be amazed at how wonderful this song is, greetings from Italy

Holy Hell they did it! Josh beat the odds and came through the otherside with enough integrity intact to just maybe save rock.

This song will win the Grammy for best rock

holy braille "feel as you might" floored me. wow that writing is genius

Finally 1M views. Took too long for this banger of a tune

I didn’t think anyone else would ever name their song Emotion Sickness. That word combination has such a direct correlation with Silverchair.

How the FCK is this song that good??? Jesus.. I am blown away.

This song has me in its grasp

This and paper machete are two brilliant stand out songs. Love qotsa 🤘

An incredibly good piece of art, both musically and visually. Josh Homme ✊

He definitely has the early Bowie vocal style. This is really well performed and produced. A wall of rock sound.

Bass line in that chorus is like cherry on the top ;)

this music video combined with the song feels like a fever dream
