Queens of the Stone Age - "Smooth Sailing"

Work till you drop, party till you black out. That is the mantra of the Japanese salaryman, featured front and center in this new music video directed by Hiro Murai for Smooth Sailing, taken from last year's 'Like Clockwork' album. Featuring Josh Homme as the captain of a ship headed straight to debauchery, things slowly begin to spiral out of control as the evening progresses.

While the lyrics of the song are slowly spelled out on a dimly lit Karaoke screen, a steady flow of alcohol and drugs eventually lead to some truly unexpected events. The end result is something that would fit perfectly in a  twisted Japanese adaptation of The Hangover.

Queens of the Stone Age ...Like Clockwork

With Queens of the Stone Age's new album, ...Like Clockwork's release date just around the corner, the band has been releasing some incredible music videos to hype us up. You might actually recognize the art from a while back when we featured the Knockout collection by Boneface. The above video is a compilation of songs set for the album's June 4th release. While none of the songs are complete, it gives a pretty damn good representation of just how good this album is going to be. I mean it has been six years, so I would expect some quality, but this is an entirely different level.

If you're planning to get some sleep, I suggest waiting for daybreak before giving a peak at the video, it's undeniably creepy. The collaboration between Boneface and Queens of the Stone Age is a match made in heaven, though and it's definitely something I wouldn't mind seeing more of.

Queens Of The Stone Age - The "Like Clockwork" Narrative Unfolds

After featuring I Appear Missing a few weeks back amid rumors about the video being part of an overarching narrative that would come together like a puzzle, I couldn't be happier to confirm that it's true. Since May 6th, there's been a total of slew of new music videos: Keep Your Eyes Peeled, Kalopsia and If I Had A Tail, each featuring doomed protagonists meeting their untimely (Or deserved) end in the dystopian, post apocalyptic world that's been crafted for the new album.

In the final installment prior to the release of their June 4th album, My God Is The Sun features all the dead stars from the previous videos resurrecting to witness the birth of a winged sun and the end of the world. Check out the rest of the music videos after the break!

Queens Of The Stone Age - "I Appear Missing"

Queens of the Stone Age gives us a glimpse into the brooding, dark world of their upcoming June 4th album, Like Clockwork. Featurign a bloodied, bandaged man waking up in the desert, and a mysterious force leadign him on a journey through desolate landscapes. It's all a little out of control, but deeply atmospheric at the same time. The final version of 'I Appear Missing' is rumored to be over six minutes long, so consider this a taste of things to come. We're excited.
