It’s fairly safe to assume that much of the witchy, krautrock-y elements of Queens Of The Stone Age—particularly evident circa 2005’s Lullabies To Paralyze—is attributable to the influence of producer and musician Chris Goss, whose own band Masters Of Reality recently issued sixth album Pine/Cross Dover. The video for album track “Always” is a study in Goss’ brand of desert-rock weirdness, a kind of bad-acid-trip storyboard that makes you believe you’re in a German expressionist production of Alice In Wonderland and you can’t blink or else the pod people will erase your soul.
