Yeah... so far this thing pretty much exceeds all of my expectations. What a killer rock album!

[Butcher]

It is quite incredible.

A low bit-rate (128 kbps) download of the entire album has appeared on Piratebay and Isohunt, and yes it rips.

[Destined]

Simply brilliant. JPJ has some badass bass lines. Grohl is incredible on drums. Homme won me over.

i was ambivalent towards all of this when i first heard it because generally, supergroups suck. now i'm boning for it. could be the viagra though.

I listened to about the first half of the album - I don't know, it's alright I guess. I'm not really a fan of Homme and Grohl to begin with, and this doesn't seem all that far removed from their usual output. I guess I don't get what all the hype is about.

Well...if you don't like Homme and Grohl, why would you expect to like a group that is 2/3 Homme and Grohl?

Good point. I wanted to give it a shot I guess after hearing basically nothing but positives about it.

There's a sweet DVD of a show ripped from a German broadcast from Rockpalast in Koln on Dimeadozen.org. It also has one song that didn't make the album.

Feb. 4, 2010

The Pulse of Radio reports that THEM CROOKED VULTURES apparently plan to record their second album later this year, according to a new interview with bassist John Paul Jones at Stuff.co.nz. Jones explained, "We'll do a second album this year. By the end of summer, something like that . . . We're all hard workers. In a way we need to do this for ourselves. Once we committed to it we worked as hard as a young band would, put the hours in. It's got to be good — we've got reputations to uphold more than anything else."

VULTURES singer/guitarist Josh Homme also expressed confidence in an interview with England's BBC 6 that a second album was in the cards, saying, "We love playing in this (band). We have such a good time together and it's fun and it feels like we're obligated to risk and challenge ourselves."

LED ZEPPELIN's Jones and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE frontman Homme teamed with FOO FIGHTERS leader Dave Grohl in the new group, which released its self-titled debut disc in November after months of rumors about the act.

THEM CROOKED VULTURES will be the musical guests on this weekend's (February 6) edition of NBC's "Saturday Night Live".

The trio plays New York's Roseland Ballroom on Monday (February before closing out its current U.S. run later that week in Atlanta. Their next scheduled dates are the Teenage Cancer Trust benefit concert at London's Royal Albert Hall on March 22 and the Coachella festival in California on April 16.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Fuck yeah. I was wondering if they were just going to do the one album/tour.

This pleases me.

[rok]

Excellent. I will need to DVR their SNL performance as well.

[ColoradoCub]

They're on Austin City Limits sometime soon here... I had it in my calendar as this weekend, but the ACL schedule is showing something different. It appears that it airs on 2/13
