The Queens Giveth!
One of the dark horses from the 'Songs For The Deaf' CD, 'First It Giveth' builds tensions with Dave Grohl's frenetic drumming and Josh Homme's awesome guitar work. This is one of the heaviest songs from the album, especially the chorus, yet Homme's vocals are light in contrast. It's an excellent track that should be listened to loud!
The first b-side 'Wake Up Screaming' (a Subhumans' cover) is sung /screamed by Nick Oliveri, that takes you on a 5 minute trip from restrained (by Queens' standards) melody to outright punk. It rocks!
The second b-side is 'The Most Exhalted Potentate Of Love' (a 'The Cramps' cover)is a rollicking adventure as Homme's vocals (remeniscent of Iggy Pop) collide with hardcore surf guitars (and an evil final laugh) to pound your ears for 2 and a half minutes!
The 'First It Giveth' video is a collection of live outtakes from Queens' concerts, and features Nick's naked onstage antics in full force. It's cool to see the guys hanging out, and to se their live capabilities. Anyone who has seen the Queens Of The Stone Age play knows what I mean! Hopefully they can release an uncut live video soon (even though past clips like 'Feel Good Hit Of The Summer', 'Monsters In The Parasol', 'No One Knows', and 'Go With The Flow' are quite possibly the best videos made in the last decade!).
If you're a fan, pick this up, because the b-sides are decent recordings, and worth what you pay.
