Them Crooked Vultures

Antiquiet broke news today concerning Dave Grohl, John Paul Jones and Josh Homme's new band/project. They revealed the name to be 'Them Crooked Vultures', a midnight post-Lollapalooza show in Chicago and it looks like the websites are up too (MySpace, Facebook, official).

Since Dave Grohl's comment about the project in 2005, the only updated have come as of late. Any ideas on what this is going to sound like is mere speculation. Although, we tend to know what to expect from Homme and Grohl (together as well a la the great 'Songs for the Deaf' which Grohl drummed on) - let's see hoe JPJ gets involved with Homme's desert sound.

But, we all hope Brody Dalle was right on when she described what she had heard from the trio as '“...pretty fucking amazing. Just beats and sounds like you’ve never heard before.” in an earlier Antiquiet interview.

I think that with the sound of the track and visuals, it's also important to point out that they went into the new album recording process with Josh Homme looking like this-
