Nov 15, 2013Anyone who says this album is bad is obviously an idiot. There is not a metal band that exists that can dish out these riffs and vocals. No One Knows has one of the greatest guitar riffs of all time. Maybe the best metal riff ever.

Nov 22, 2013My favourite album (very, very closely followed by their Self-titled), every song is just brilliant. I would recommend this album to anyone, and have bought it for countless people. Please, if you haven't already, buy this album and all of QOTSA's discography.

Aug 5, 2014This is the most powerful record ever made. In Songs For The Deaf, Queens Of The Stone Age are at their best. There are just two or three songs that aren't unforgettable, but all the others are fists to your hears. An album for those interested in heavy guitars, low chords and intense strong drumming.
This record is a **** masterpiece of contemporary music. -
Aug 17, 2014This is an amazing album. Probably one of the best of the 2000s (but in my personal opinion, White Blood Cells by the White Stripes is the best of that decade). If you like Stoner Rock, Alternative Rock or just wanna hear so good music of the new millennium, buy this album. It's on Vinyl, Cassette, CD & Digital Download. I plan to buy it on all 4.

Nov 27, 2014It goes without saying that damn near anything Dave Grohl touches turns to gold, and his presence on this album is no exception. This is a classic QOTSA album from start to finish. The bass is aggressive and chunky, guitars are haunting, the vocal delivery from Hommes is drawly and sleazy as always, the drums are kickin', and the riffs are instant classics.

Jun 22, 2017That's one of my favourite album ever made.
The opening with "You think I ain't worth a dollar" is like being shot right in the ears. The concept of the Radio stations is well executed, they explore different types of songs to match hypothetic stations.
Like "Another love song" is their take on pop and catchy lovesongs.
The album featured Dave Grohl playing drums and is a blast. -
Apr 26, 2017A full throttle ride through the deserts of California that never slows down. Every riff from this masterpiece has managed to establish itself as an instant classic. The album always seemed a bit under-appreciated because of its besettling nature, so it was nice to see it recognized and praised like it deserves to be. One of the best albums of the century for me.

Mar 26, 2018I was kid, confused and didn't know what I should listen. I was searching something new. I my music taste didn't form yet and I found what I want, I found many new albums, music ,singer and one of the albums was this. Thank for the memories. If you like rock, metal, if you brain can take loud music, this album will be treasure for you.

May 20, 2022Good ol' sleazy dessert rock with a traditional edge that imbued the 90's with it's generation defying ethos of counter culture. It's an uneven effort overall.

'The Sky Is Fallin' is a beast.... 'God Is In The Radio' has got just such an awesome riff, like the Lord himself hotwired to a Marshall amp.

BlenderWhile cliches abound... this huge music is delivered with panache. [#9, p.154]

'Songs For The Deaf' is a triumph, a record forged with fire and sweat in the pits of Valhalla... It is the very essence of Rock.
