Top 10 Era Vulgaris Facts

Business:

Let's talk:

INFO: Era Vulgaris is the fifth studio album by the american rock band Queens of the Stone Age. Released on June 12th 2007, the album went on to be the last album Queens released in the 00s. Marking the end of an era and a transition into new musical territories. Although a lot of old-school fans enjoy the band’s 3 first albums the most, a generation of new fans seem to favor this album and their newer material. Opinions and musical taste aside, in this video we’ll take a look at the album’s history and the top 10 most interesting facts about it.

Era is such an underrated album that really shines through repeated listens. It's the most interesting direction the band has gone in, musically and visually, and I hope they decide to revisit this crazy, acid, robot, looney landscape. Josh had never sounded more cool.

This is one of my fav QOTSA albums. Very unique and quirky and the cover art is very memorable. I just wish the title track and "The Fun Machine Took a Shit and Died" were included.

According to the Desert Session credits, Josh does vocals on that version of Make It Wit Chu. He just sings it differently.

Era Vulgaris is a brilliant album, as are all the songs they made during that time period, like the title track "Era Vulgaris", "The Fun Machine Took a Shit and Died", "Running Joke", etc. They made SO MUCH incredible music during this era. I don't get why people act like "Era Vulgaris" is a "bad album". QotSA doesn't make "bad albums". Every single album, all the way to "In Times New Roman..." are all absolute fucking masterpieces. -

To explain the Era Vulgaris single, the band was mad at the record label and decided to take that song off the album and give it to everyone for free. So that's their attempt at doing that before just putting the mp3 on their website for free titled "you know what you did" which is probably a sarcastic comment towards interscope

The test of time has absolved Era Vulgaris. Probably the one I'd take to a desert planet.

Easily one of their most underrated albums. But wouldn't recommend it to people new to QOTSA.

[forthedoggiesguitars]

3s & 7s is one of the best QOTSA songs from this album. A top 5 from their whole catalog.

[MrDrumGuru]

This was a great video and in my opinion the animation fits the style of your videos the best of all formats you have tried previously. Keep it up man!

[TangoMango]

Not gonna mention the other unreleased tracks that kinda came out with the album? Running Joke and Fun Machine deserve more love.

[renapeppers]

Era vulgaris is one of my favorite qotsa albums, it's so dirty sounding and sinister, definitely one of their best imo, thanks for another great qotsa video!!!

Mark Lanegan did not sing the lyrics on make it witchu on DS. It was Josh.

[thstguy]

Josh Homme sang lead vocals on the desert sessions version of make it witchu

[wvy_nt]

Turnin' on the screw, Into The Hollow, I'm Designer, Misfit Love, 3s & 7s, and Suture Up Your Future are easily one of my favorite album songs

[muchodisaster]

I first became aware of Make it Wit Chu on their Through the Woods live album and I assumed it was a cover when I first heard it. That is still my fav version over both studio versions.

[tylerevans]

Sweet, I haven't actually heard this album yet. I look forward to checking it out now. Glad I just found your channel

[Atheistliberterian]

Sorry but the voice I Wanna Make It Wit Chu (DS) is JOSHUA HOMME isn't Mark Lanegan, for totally sure.

[kainvonbeiden]

when hearing something like "sick, sick, sick" bringing in the DFA1979 Bassist would have made so much sense. to bad it never worked out.

[maxsolis]

Why isn't 3's & 7's the third single and the seventh song? 😭

[peytondoesthings]

Woah!!! Haven’t seen this channel in so long (maybe 3 months or even 5). You are great now!!
