Rock's most dangerous gang returns after 6 years with In Times New Roman, a brutally beautiful and highly complex 10-track collection packed with devastatingly delicious trap doors, richly lush production and musical blades sharpened in the friction of opposing forces.

Mithridatism is the practice of ingesting small amounts of poison with consistent frequency over a long period of time, with the eventual goal of building immunity. After the tribulations of the last several years in the world of Queens, such hard-won immunity is a fitting metaphor for the depth of potency and power of In Times New Roman.

In a stark departure from QOTSA's previous two albums, In Times New Roman has absolutely nothing to do with existential dilemmas or contemplative ambivalence. Vulnerability, uncertainty and longing have been traded out for a renewal of lava-in-the-veins certainty and purpose, the discovery that all these little sips of poison over the years have led, finally, to inoculation. 

Rock's most deadly goliaths have created a brilliantly brutal new fire, and just may have discovered immortality in the process.

Queens are back.

Knives out, bitches.

Foo Fighters have returned with "Rescued," the first single from their new album But Here We Are, out June 2 on Roswell Records/RCA Records. The only problem? The song is not very good, and there's something significant missing.

We also dive into the Sonic Temple festival happening May 25-28 in Ohio, as well as the return of Queens of the Stone Age and more. And while not a single publication ran with the (highly exciting) Soundgarden lawsuit + new album story for 11 days after we broke the news in ep. 66, it has now been confirmed by the band. For future would-be naysayers to prevent more embarrassment, in this episode we provide a little verifying backstory on Antiquiet - as well as a Johnny Firecloud career highlight reel.

Antiquiet Exclusive: A long-running lawsuit between Soundgarden and Vicky Cornell over the use of her late husband Chris Cornell's unreleased vocal tracks has been settled. This means the nearly-completed new Soundgarden album can now be finished and released, an enormously exciting development for fans.
