Not reaaally, sometimes live songs are faster than the studio versions. Plus I'm sure if there was a fastness problem with the drummer, I'm sure they've rectified it nearly 10 years after this recording ;)
Ive watched multiple live performances of this and ive noticed that in pretty much each one the drummer couldn't keep a steady beat. He's usually playing too fast and then every now and then he'll slow down too much. If they fired him, it's for the better.
Drummer's gotta watch about his timing, it kinda wanders all over the place. Hell of a riff to play and sing with at the same time tho! Guitarist and bassist both gotta give props.
Joey always had issues with rushing live, their current drummer for the last decade is a way way better live performer and doesn’t have problems with rushing.

Camera's on Josh Homme the entire time except for when he does one of the coolest solos ever created
Modern cameramen are allergic to guitar solos
@@gravygravyjosh I think you're right
God what I’d give to see this live!!!
Man, the 2 solos in this song are pure badassery!!!
The 8 dislikes are 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10.
underrated comment
Still at 8 XD
Surprisingly STILL at 8
Lol
Oh my god, still 8
Some odd years later on acid and this song still goes
Guitar Hero 3
\,,/
Smooth Joey at 3:00 tosses his stick and grabs another halfway through a bar.
Stephen Williams gnarly amirite
Wish they still played this one live
Freaking amazing 🤩
TURN THEM UP STAGE PEOPLE!! TURN THEM ALL UP! AND MIC THE DRUMS EVEN LOUDER!! PRETTY SURE ONE OF THEIR ALBUM NAMES REFERS TO THIS!!!
Everyone to ever play with this band is a goddamn rock god. If there’s anyone that drinks the blood of the lamb it’s Joshua and the Queens.
only 28k views for this masterpiece?

The drummer needs a metronome. He plays super fast and you can tell he just rushes the other musicians. It's super obvious in the chorus

Joey Castillo(this drummer) got fired for playing too fast lol
nealshireman No he didn't. Josh has never specified said why he asked Joey to leave the band.

He's really speeding up on every live rendition of this song. And he plays too fast usually
God I love Josh Homme
I love your song
Just before the world melted down
What?
thanks!
That’s a really hard to riff to sing and play, that’s why you don’t see mf covering this song at this level
i love it!!!!!!
JOEY FUCKING CASTILLO!!!
The drummer looks like ramsay bolton
