#907 Queens of the Stone Age - ...Like Clockwork

Another perfectly named album, evoking the album's relentless, inexorable chugging and the relentless, inexorable fear of the inevitable that drips from its every bone. Muscular and hard-edged, but with enough nuance and touch to keep it alive, ...Like Clockwork has all the stark lines and subtle details of its cover's skeletal seducer. Nothing on here will surprise you deeply, but its metallic sheen is agreeable enough as it hums along like, you know 3.5/5
