This Song Rocks: Better Living Through Chemistry


Original video located here. Accessed 22nd August 2021

Song title: Better Living Through Chemistry

Artist: Queens of the Stone Age

Year: 2000

Why I like this song:

No One Knows and it's parent album Songs For the Deaf may have been huge but I doubtful that would have occurred without it's predecessor Rated R.

And it was through Rated R that I discovered this band. And I can't emphasize enough how much of a breath of fresh air this was when Nu-Metal was a big deal. At the time, i was looking for something more tougher than what i was listening to and QOTSA delivered with creativity, chunky riffs and mood - all encapsulated in this song - to leave the likes of Limp Bizkit looking....well... rather limp.
