Queens of the Stone Age - Villains

Mark Ronson's flat production doesn't do any favors for Villains, Queens of the Stone Age's most mixed bag of tracks to date.

Queens of the Stone Age - "The Way You Used to Do"

Queens of the Stone Age's previous album, ...Like Clockwork, was one of the best rock albums the year it came out, and arguably the band's most downbeat and sobering release to date. But things are slated to take a poppy turn with the Mark Ronson-produced Villains, coming out August 25. I think he and QOTSA jell pretty well on this lead single, but you be the judge.
