This is a legit DJ you’d hear on Songs for the Deaf

Interview starts at 13:00

At 1:13:45 where he talks about his Grandpa telling him it's how you get back up and knowing now that those are the lyrics to Fortress, a song for his kids, just gives me such chills.

''if you expect anything out of music, you expect too much'' - if I'd heard those words 10 years ago , maybe I wouldn't be so sour and disillusioned.   Fuck fame, success, validation, just fuckin do it

This was recorded in 2013, not 2017.

this podcast saved my life. no joke. I'm up and writing instead of fetal and dying.

Homme is an original. His music doesn’t sound like anyone else. First heard QOTSA in ‘99 off their debut album and I’ve been interested ever since. He makes writing, playing, soloing, singing and performing look and sound good. And effortless. Not jealous yet? You will be.

Tomorrow never comes... chills! Marc you took the words out of my mouth: " I begin weeping just thinking about that song"  The Real Shite

every time you hear the word 'desert', you gotta take a scorpion barb to the forearm.

i remember listening to this when it was released. the context Josh gives with regard to this record hit me so hard when i first heard it. it's like, beauty, terror, fuck it, and love. there is nothing out of place on Like Clockwork. everything fits and hits so hard when you know even just a bit of the story. truly authentic and consistent in its aesthetic the entire way through.

i'm just getting to the bit where they begin discussing his health and Like Clockwork @1:03:00, but i wanted to pause and get this outta my system because i'm getting the chills already.

i remember a quote from this that i absolutely love. i'm gonna butcher it cuz i'm not clicking ahead for you fuckers, but when josh has doubts about releasing a song called 'vampyre of time and memory' and he says to his wife, 'no one wants to hear that depressing shit' -- she encourages him to do it because it's real.

those last 30 minutes are potent. bye bye black balloon

Marc interviews Josh Homme so much better than Rogan. In fact maybe Marc is just so much better an int.... well anyway.

I’ve listened to this interview a few times. Absolutely incredible!

You can learn a lot about how to be in a band the right way, from this interview. I listen to it during cocaine come-downs, often,  and take different things away from it, every time.

Josh is exceptional .. really enjoyed this thank you so much

I loved Queens, but I'm embarrassed to say I never heard of Kyuss before this interview. I've been going through a Kyuss loop for the last two weeks. Amazing! Space Cadet takes me to places I've never been.

Fuckleberry Fins. A great band name

So grateful I had a chance to see them open up for Rage Against the Machine in 2007 at Alpine Valley front row. It was an outdoor venue, it rained, and everyone was covered in mud head to toe. Not only was it the most fun I've ever had at a concert, I knew I was seeing something important.

No disrespect, AT ALL, but this started playing, and I couldn't get to it to change because I have all my blacksmith kit on, but you struck a chord (pun intended) when you started talking about creativity, then I couldn't switch off. Nice one brother, from an English guy hidden deep in a French forest (not a euphemism). Best wishes from a new fan! 👏👏👏

Last Queens album was a masterpiece imo.  I also like the respect this guy has for rock n roll.  He is very much like Dave Grohl -- an ambassador for rock.

“You know, It’s great to be a dreamer, unless you can’t fuckin’ wake up for second see what’s going on, You know”

Haha I was driving through Sky Valley when they were talking about it
