Concert presale: Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones bring their supergroup to Seattle


Posted at 10:42 am

Them Crooked Vultures certainly gets to check the boxes on that supergroup application form.

The three-man band is top-heavy with big names. Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters) and John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin) teamed with Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age) to put together the band.

The group's sound is pure rock and roll. Hear the first single, “New Fang,” at their Web site, or listen at the bottom of this post.

The group will embark on a headlining tour to promote the Nov. 17 release of their self-titled debut, which features the songs "Interlude With Ludes" and "Caligulove." Word play!

Also, a brief apology: I haven't been updating this blog regularly. That's on me — not you. No, no, really, I won't hear it. It's not your fault. I'll be more vigilant with updates going forward. For any readers I have left — there are what, four, five of you, maybe? — I'll be better in the future.

  • Them Crooked Vultures, Nov. 17, Paramount Theatre, Seattle; $41.50; presale from 10 a.m. Thursday to 10 p.m. Friday. Password is “scumbag,” for serious.


  • Here's that first single:
