Watch Queens Of The Stone Age perform new single live

A live video has been released showing Queens Of The Stone Age performing their new track The Way You Used To Do.

It was filmed during the band’s recent set at the Splendour In The Grass festival in Byron Bay, Australia, and will feature on the band’s upcoming album Villains, the follow-up to 2013’s …Like Clockwork.

The record was produced by Mark Ronson and will arrive on August 25, with pre-orders now available.

Queens frontman Josh Homme said: “The most important aspect of making this record was redefining our sound, asking and answering the question ‘what do we sound like now?’

“If you can’t make a great first record, you should just stop – but if you can make a great record but you keep making records and your sound doesn’t evolve, you become a parody of that original sound.”

Last month, Queens Of The Stone Age added an extra London date to their planned tour of the UK and Ireland in November. They slotted the show in at the Wembley Arena after their previously announced performance at the city’s O2 sold out.
