Hi everybody and welcome to the blog post that relates to our podcast!
This week the podcast (which relates to this blog post) plays host to two of the biggest names in rock: Josh Homme and Joey Castillo of the Queens of the Stone Age (or QotSA for short). In an alternately insightful, amusing and incoherent interview, we discuss death, drugs and the weather, while the Queens also tell us why they've decided to go dancier with their new album, Era Vulgaris, out next month. Have a listen for yourselves - there's a taste of the album in the shape of forthcoming single Sick Sick Sick for your delectation at the end of the show. Oh yeah, none of the Music Weekly crew took Latin GCSE, so can you help translate the album title for us, please?
In the dongles reviews, we ask: has Dizzee ditched his edginess for greater commercial success? Are the Dears a bunch of bedwetters? And just what is the point of Good Charlotte?
With Rosie Swash on her hols, joining the pod is Guardian music journo, Laura Barton. And as Bruce Forsyth says, didn't she do well.
