Overview
An absolute modern classic, Rock album. Josh Homme and the fresh Queens lineup are at the top of their game here, and a lot of that is thanks to Dave Grohl’s appearance on the record. He completely makes the percussion section his own with countless iconic beats and fills. It’s a fairly dark record with moments of madness that make it stand out in the best way possible - instantly timeless. The concept of a radio playing throughout a desert drive runs through the album, with a mix of weird hosts taking you on a Mojave trip - it’s a radio station you’re not likely to switch from. ‘Songs For The Deaf’ has moments of madness and absolute moments of beauty - this is an album everyone needs to hear and will likely fall in love with.
Recommended for mosh pit lovers searching for a 150mph desert drive.

Album Artwork Rating
8.5/10
Sometimes simplicity is key, and it absolutely works here. The deep red background, paired with the devilish pitchfork at the forefront of the album, creates a striking image, and the matching font for the title and artist name is perfect.
