CarlVApr 13, 2010This album is simply one of the best albums from all the contributing parties. It's a great experiment they made, with no one to impress after unanimous success, they still impress anyway. Mark of a truly amazing band. Other bands should take note.

CedricFNov 20, 2009JOSH HOMME IS A FRIKKIN LEGEND!!! DAVE GROHL IS A FRIKKING LEGEND- he should stick with drums and other bands instead of foo fighters JPJ says itself

SashaDec 19, 2009pretty good if you like Queens of the Stone Age, youll like this. its just more hard hitting. some songs tho, arent too good, like Interludes with Ludes and Warsaw Or The Breathe You Take U Take U Give Up and Mind Eraser No Chaser. The rest are good or great. Don't miss this.

MikeFJan 13, 2010A superb album with grat variation. Talanted musicians doing some of their best work and considering is was a project initially by Grohl it has come together brilliantly. Top marks and I hope there is another record.

ClarkA.Feb 10, 2010Hot damn, this is a good album. The musicianship blows you away, and Homme once again proves that he is master of the rock riff. Buy this.

SamHFeb 13, 2010An excellent album, which shows the talent of everyone involved, JPJ on bass and Dave Grohl on drums gel together really nicely, which is topped off by the amazing sound of Josh Homme. A great change from the general slurry of "music" which is released nowadays. Hope there's more great albums where this one came from!

TimHFeb 2, 2010These three artists are solid in their other groups, and come together powerfully for TCV. I don't always love "supergoups" but this time it absolutely works.

DylanDNov 20, 2009Wow, with some of the albums getting higher marks then this, the reviewers need to check their brains. An amazing album from three hard rock gods. Anything with Dave Grohl is going to be amazing.

OL.Dec 15, 2009Really great rock album. Retains some of the best aspects of each band. A decent amount of variation, but they don't deviate too much from their core sound, they keep it quite continuous and strong. Some brilliant songs, and though it's a fairly long album it keeps the listener very interested.

AlexCNov 19, 2009Critics dont know what they're talking about, ask for one of them if they ever tried to create something from their imagination and put it on the market, ask them if they even made it to the top100 song of the week, b*llshit talk this album is incredible, every bandmate has a huge role and it's taken in a brilliant way, I just love it.

BryanSNov 19, 2009Every listen I hear something new. Song structure is tossed out the window in favor or rocking musical arrangements that take you places you weren't expecting to go. If anything this album exceeded my already high expectations. The group sounds as if they've been riffing together since the Stone Age.

RodrigoGNov 22, 2009Excellent mix of Queen's/Zep/Grohl's thunderstorm dirty drumming. It works, although not incredible inventive. Definitely a top 10 release of 2009. Deserves a loud listening!

JaredM.Nov 22, 2009One cannot expect much better from a supergroup composed of some of the most skilled musicians in the rock n' roll business.
-
-
SilvioR.Nov 22, 2009The music is constantly new. They have the same outstandingly awesome effect on me every time I hear them as if it were still the first time. Every song has it's own attitude and personality - truly good music.

LukeJ.Nov 23, 2009This is one of my favorite albums this year. The only weakness being Grohl on drums and not vocals. Homme gets the job done but it lacks a little intensity that Grohl delivers. Grohl does rock the drums pretty fierce.

JohnT.Nov 24, 2009saw these guys in seattle. some of the greatest hard rock moments ive ever seen live. and that includes sabbath, metallica, soundgarden.. they have only scratched the surface of the endless possibilities

-
BlackSkunkDec 26, 2009Excellent, has a bit of everything thrown in, whilst sounding a bit different to the norm. Dirty, raunchy sound. Rock music at its best. Well done chaps, a super album from a super group. Hope you do another.

-
RogerTDec 31, 2009The name change from Josh's QOTSA moniker hardly seems necessary, but damn its good to hear an album of this calibre from him again. From them all again!

It’s an oddball groove-rock album, played very well, imprinted with Homme's undeniably interesting personality. Yet when all’s said and done, it's not particularly memorable and entirely lacks the type of yee-haw exuberance that might have made it a sloppy treat.
-
This stomping, panting, sweaty monster is a great listen.
-
Homme and Grohl are old hands at this kind of thing--see their excellent Zeppelin homages on the Queens' "Songs for the Deaf." But they definitely seem inspired by Jonesy's presence, and he helps them keep it light.
