While the stunning, honeyed melodies of "Carnavoyeur" are undeniably, well, really pretty, this is still Queens of the Stone Age, and there's no shortage of viscera-rumbling drums and bass or spine-chilling guitar interplay.

Yet in the end all we really have in the whole wide universe is each other and that is what this CD is trying to point out" - Peter Lewis (continue)

"While on our recent 'Crash, the World Tour,' when I'd take the stage for our first number, 'Hangar 18', my adrenaline is racing. I'm not nervous, I'm pumped!

The playing ability of this guitar is superb and if I didn't look at the legs on this beauty, I would never have known the difference. An excellent guitar from an excellent company; this is a serious metal weapon." -Dave Mustaine of Megadeth (continue)
