So, Them Crooked Vultures. The one band reminding us that good rock 'n' roll still exists. None of that sappy emo or hardcore grunge crap that makes you want to break stuff (for the record, I had a passion for grunge for a while). Them Crooked Vultures is
the band.
For anyone that doesn't know, TVC is a supergroup consisting of John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin, Dave Grohl from Foo Fighters, and Josh Homme from Queens Of The Stone Age. They are
the rock and roll band. Seriously. Their first album is due out on November 17th, and comes out one day before in the UK. The album is self titled and will contain the best damn music you've ever heard. The band's Youtube account (

entire album onto the site so you can listen to it. Below is probably my favorite song on the album, and is also the first song on it:
Honestly, this is probably the greatest song I've ever heard. So a catchy tune, and the way the song completely changes at 2:44 is outstanding. The rest of the album is also fantastic. Why? Because it's fucking
rock music, and it's amazing.
Now, the purpose of this blog is to get people interested in this band, and to convince them that rock still exists on this planet. This is not meant to be advertising. Just spreadin' the word.
