The best album ever.
Mark K. gave it a10:
Everything you could wish for in a rock album. This is the band at their best and indeed one album you must listen to before you die. Queens Of The Stone Age should be considered as one of the greatest rock bands of all time!
Mike T gave it a10:
The best hard rock album since Ozzy became incomprehensible.

Dimitri V. gave it a9:
This is a great album and was the first album I got to know by QOTSA. This is, in my opinion, one of their best albums because its a mix of diverse rock songs though not one of them is bad. In fact, they are all good and some have even made it already as classics you just want to hear if you go to a concert of QOTSA. It has a nice groove only Oliveri could have laid down and the drums are magnificent. Josh Homme performs vocally at his best reaching from the bottom end of his voice to a decent falsetto. The reason i did not give this album a clear 10 is that, though the interludes are sometimes really funny, they sometimes get the drive out of the album. Maybe a few cuts here and there would make this album perfect.
Bryden S. gave it a10:
Best metal album of the 00's. Even Dave Grohl admitted it was the best album he had ever played on. The fact that it is a loose concept album and flows cohesively is the icing on top of the fact that it rocks harder than any of the other crap currently plaguing modern rock radio. Anyone who doesn't give this album at least an 8 doesn't know anything about hard rock and should stick to the Adult Alternative section of the record store.
