Them Crooked Vultures

This past summer, Them Crooked Vultures unleashed themselves on the world in a small club in Chicago during Lollapolooza. It was only during Lollapalooza, not a part of it - kind of an “off-Lollapalooza” type thing. Even so, it was the most talked about act of the weekend. Why so much hype? Probably has something to do with the lineup: Dave Grohl, John Paul Jones (that’s right, the John Paul Jones) and Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age. A bonafide supergroup. Bonafide. Don’t get use that word a lot. Bonafide! Anyway, I took my sweet ass time, like I sometimes do, and have decided that now is the time to feature them here in the spotlight - after the initial hype has passed. I’m jogging everyone’s collective memory and reviving their hype machine. Consider it revived.
