Always willing to experiment, guitarist Josh Homme recorded the two tracks on this split EP in 17 minutes on April Fools Day. The result is two of the best songs Queens of the Stone Age recorded. "The Bronze" features elaborate guitar solos that were few and far betweeen on the band's self-titled debut. The space-cowboy atmosphere the guitars create are accented by Homme's steadily improving vocals and lyrics. Homme's voice sounds like a road-proven rock & roll veteran.

Too bad Queens of the Stone Age couldn't record two more songs for a full EP. ~ David Thomas, Rovi Read Less
