Nick Oliveri and the Mondo Generator "Lie Decector"

[klauslerner]

@luizinchains you said "decector"... khkhkhkkhk

[luizinchains]

@klauslerner i can't find my comment hahah

[luiscobacolli]

QOTSA no es lo mismo sin olivery :D

[ChuckMcChip]

this video has been on youtube for well over 4 years now and it is still mispelled, WTF Suburban Noize.

[VBoodZ]

nick is the man saw kyuss lives! the other night...awesome show

[BigOlBagOfWhatsNew]

I know he's a woman-beating son of a bitch, but I totally miss him being in Queens of the Stone Age.

[joerandli1986]

This is just sad.. This is a waste of Oliveri's talent..

What a shitty song.. And the music video looks like it was made by kids..

[ktmyamaha01]

And the most epic beard award goes too...

[TimBuktu666]

@ktmyamaha01 ZZ - Nick!

[aiodiacho]

@ktmyamaha01 Neil Fallon from Clutch? ;)

[xxKingxofxSpadesxx23]

Tthe beginning sort of sounds like "Someone's in the Wolf" by QotSA

[adiosa850]

fuck you chonlot18why don´t you dress like woman and let nick take a swing at you .i care about qotsa

[MythicShot]

Vox a bit iffy....music solid though

[karnicericimo]

CHANGE THE TITLE PLEASE!!! xD

[powdereddonut]

@ralphwiggum14 nawww. too quick to assume.

[joskeeeee]

@ralphwiggum14 Lol I know what you mean + listen to " A Horse Called Golgotha - Baroness" Also same kinda intro !

[karnicericimo]

@joskeeeee You are deaf.

[joskeeeee]

@karnicericimo You are neglecting the fact that those are the same intro chords just played different, Oliveri's song is much older than the one from baroness so it's only an apperception in no one's disadvantage. Still, both great songs!

[jmaer91]

Nick Oliveri = Sold out ?

[Stowee01]

@jmaer91 sold out? wow you really know nothing. this has been a side project that he;s been involved in for years

[jmaer91]

@Stowee01

this just isn't anything near the best Nick's done...that's all. it sounds like a generic crappy riff made by "them" which Nick has used.... I would (at least) hope he can write better stuff than this. Unless it truly was Josh who wrote ALL the stuff Nick is most well-known for in QotSA which only Josh and Nick know....

[jacksie111]

@jmaer91 It was Josh, Josh carried Nick alot of the time. Nick is fairly talented, but Josh is on another level in my opinion.

[jmaer91]

@jacksie111

yeh I agree. Josh is just...WOW

[anothergunner]

@jmaer91 well.. he is wearing a shirt... sold out? no way, man

[jmaer91]

@anothergunner

sold out? yeh maybe not then.... but gone severely downhill?...Yes....Yes indeed he has.

[gramoukdoom]

QOTSA is nothing without Nick.

[cassidy1674]

@gramoukdoom yeah because alain johannes or mikey shuman are such horrible bassists. i think the band took a positive step at the time by booting him. you proally think that they are nothing without dave grohl either...

[gramoukdoom]

@cassidy1674

sorry but albums with Nick are far more convincing. He composed alongside Homme and you can tell. Nick is more than a basist, hes an accomplished musician.

[porsaspersereika]

@gramoukdoom so not true

[GANGSTAsizeZAK]

Dood so meth i hear you callin is the only good mondo song and whats weird is that everything else they have made sucks so fucking bad.and this video looks like some cock rock retard shit like a fuckin nickelback vid or something,seriously i think nick may have only been good with doods from qotsa's influence.really nick what the fuck happened?

[STEEVEBUSTER]

geil ersma is der song so geht eher lame... und dann baaaaaaaaaam der chorus fickt voll!!! daumen hoch!! aber bei qotsa is nick besser!!

[Bigant55]

a bunch of great instrumentalists thrown together and now they sound like a neighborhood garage band. Needs clarity and a more controlled chaos feel instead of sound waves crashing into each other.

[rossoarancione]

His voice is a bit Hetfield-like, don't you think? Just during the verse though.

[Thewonkandfriends]

Pretty damn good, I must say. Nick's kept his groove.

[EILIVdrummer]

He lefte QOTSA for this? D:

[RIPjohnbonham]

@EILIVdrummer He didn't leave, he got kicked out by Josh. Plus he's been doing this on the side since the late '90s.

[EILIVdrummer]

@RIPjohnbonham Uh, sorry... but why?

[RIPjohnbonham]

@EILIVdrummer The story is that he was kicked out because Josh heard that he had been beating his girlfriend. Google "Nick Oliveri fired" and you'll come up with a few news stories giving the reason.

[EILIVdrummer]

@RIPjohnbonham

Well, I hope that's not true D:

[puma0927]

@EILIVdrummer he didn't leave, Josh kicked him out

[MattMadoni]

Opening for them on August 29 at Skillman Street Pub in Dallas...can't wait! Gonna be an awesome show!!!

If anyone would like tickets, message me!

[jmaer91]

this is ...just...awful

[renansbern13]

miss Nick in QotSA =/

[janerga]

This band is fucking awesome live! Nick jumped out in the moshpit with us!

[blasterman9]

fucking tight!

[jmaer91]

ah...so this video/music explains why Nick got kicked out of QotSA ..... this is just...awful.

[bamsebomsen]

@jmaer91 According to Homme: "Oliveri was fired from the band by Homme for what was said to be disrespect of the group's fans and excessive partying. In July 2005 however, Homme claimed in a BBC Radio 1 interview that Oliveri was fired when Homme had become convinced that he had been physically abusive to his (Oliveri's) girlfriend", so who knows. Maybe it has nothing to do with QotSA.

[bigbowlowrong]

probably not a good idea to outsource your video production to nearest high school AV club, nick. jesus

[MoonlightShadowlolz]

worst. rockvideo. ever.

[Chaveydvdabn]

this is bad

[ThePunisher1024]

Sick riffs, vocals by nick not so so.

[Outlawstar615]

ya know, somewhere deep inside me i believe that this could've made a kickass qotsa song. no offense to mondo generator..but just think of the majik that josh could've done on this song perhaps even Lanegan's vocals.. damn. oh well i still like it.

[hantront]

@titanisaac

Dude he got kicked out so stfu!

By the way he is still a awesome and skilled musician so Titanisaac FUCK YOU!

[IKTET]

this is a sick song and a sick album so stop hating listen to the freakin music and look beyond what youve been brainwashed to believe

[GeneralForgeron]

you're right, man. that's sick and i'm brainwashed.

but i can do nothing about it. and the music is awesome. haooo!!

[dookie2kie]

I shall hog the screen no longer!! Apologies, good way of getting rid of bad vibes and spreading a better word!!!

Please change the record regarding nick and the bad vibes!!

Desert rock, fuzz rock, stoner metal aint about bad vibes, from what iv learned there about good ppl having good times with good tunes!!

Be it a beach, a desert, a wood, a lake, desert rock iseems to be an outside music!! A trip,a journey with friends!!

Lets keep it that way!!

Medicate the nation from Ireland!!

[dookie2kie]

Freedom Hawk (US) Far Flung (US) Ten East (US) Witch (US) Colour Haze (Germany) Black Land (Italy) Green Leaf (Swe) Sleep (US) Wheel of Smoke (Belgium) Acrimony (Wales, UK) Orange Sunshine (NL) Spirits of the Dead (Norway) Los Natas (New York) Boogieman (Sweden) Orange Goblin (UK) Saturnalia (Ireland)

[motajunin]

Los Natas re from argentina man!!!i know that cause i´m from argentina!!

[dookie2kie]

Sorry, so they are, typo error... A kick ass band!!

[yovioleatuzorramadre]

why you speak about natas in a mondo generator video? lol, thats spam

[1930sg]

you should check out astroqueen from sweden,they're fuckin wicked.

[rgf030]

I just checked them out, awesome band

[dookie2kie]

Sorry for listing, i have been building up a huge list of Fuzz/desert/stoner rock from around the world:: Lowrider (Sweden) I am Droid (Sweden) Haieeta (Ireland) Misdemeanour (Sweden) Dalis Llammas (US) Karma To Burn (US) Treasure Cat (US) Year Long Disaster (US) Dead Meadow (US) Earthless (US) On The Verge (US) Hypnos 69 (Belgium)

[dookie2kie]

Why not check out other bands besides qotsa, and not them crooked vultures, i think the music is good but the vocals are drown out during any gig footage you see!!

Try Yawning Man, yawning sons for US brilliance and there are literally hundreds of desert/fuzz/stoner rock bands from europe with some sweet tight riffs and vocals which would rival any Fu manchu/nebula bands that i started off on!!

Jaysus I am freom ireland, we dont have a desert he he!! check europe esp Sweden for fuzz rock!!

[dookie2kie]

Real desert rock fans support music no matter if there over or underground and popular or not!!

The bad comments come from ppl who have been brain washed by mass media about how bad Nick is due to rumours and they should just stick to listening to whats popular!!

Go on feed the flames, blah blah blah!! nick hit this person.. blah!!

OR you could open your eyes and see Mondo G is pretty good experiment outside of Qotsa!!

Im gettin very bored of ppl who put qotsa so high up!!!

[mauricezwart]

this shows us that nick sucks :P please don't go back to qotsa!!!

[chonlot18]

Nick back to QOTSA NOW!

[anothergunner]

@chonlot18 QOTSA arent that lucky

[pattonPwr]

@chonlot18 who cares about qotsa? their only good album was the debut

[iamspikeyoko]

@chonlot18 unfortunatley thats never gonna happen :( nick got kicked out 'cause he was physically abusive towards josh's wife... :(

[sodemored]

@iamspikeyoko i thought it was because he was abusive to his own wife, not josh's

[iamspikeyoko]

@sodemored hmmmm, im sure i read differently :/ i will do a little research anyway :P :)

[GodOfPies76]

@sodemored Nick was abusive to his own girlfriend, never to Josh's, that was always a misunderstanding

[sodemored]

@GodOfPies76 yeah i knew that, i just didnt want to sound like a dick to iamspikeyoko

[GodOfPies76]

@iamspikeyoko Not Josh's, his own girlfriend

[iamspikeyoko]

@GodOfPies76 thanks, i thaught differentley but now i know better :P ::)

[FractureOfReality]

@chonlot18 much happier to see Nick back in Kyuss

[ssil08420]

@FractureOfReality lol...i see your point...but you cant have Kyuss withough Garcia.

[lazer59882]

@FractureOfReality fuck kyuss, so overrated

[SmithMD7]

@lazer59882 Fuck you.

[25209098]

Theres alot of bad comments on here.

[fieldofbrokenpianos]

dude. nick needs to go back queens

[Outlawstar615]

I like everything about this except Nick's voice on some parts....I miss him with the queens....he has a back up voice...not a lead voice....i still luv him though his crazy shirtless antics and the way he looked awesome in "No One Knows"

[Keneo619]

I ilke everything on this video execpted nick's voice..

[Incubated81]

looks like this old kyuss vid from the 90´s cant remember the name of the song right now

[hellraisermoe]

You're probably thinking of Green Machine.

[IKTET]

@Incubated81 green machine

[immernochAlex]

i do not like nick

[TylerPiatt]

Nick Oliveri stop making music now

[theydontwantit]

the verse sounds like a song from era vulgaris lol...

[dookie2kie]

I keep comin back to this song on a weekly basis, sòmething about the intro and the vocals that conjure up the shoe stomping neck bobbing gigs that ye really get into!!!

Balls out, thumbs up, come back to Dublin mate, your always welcome for a pint or two!!

Eagles of DM week after next in Dublin, some sexy dancing rock!!! Let there be chicks!!! Peace love deathmetal!!!

[demoncleaner1988]

Apart from that whole QOTSA-thing, i think this song is kinda cool. The Mondo Generator album that features it got a few better ones than this and is pretty decent, only the older version of "so high" kicks way more.

[randomovertone]

sounds like hes trying too be kyuss

[juli66666]

he was kyuss

[aostereo]

no, he was IN kyuss...

he wasn't Kyuss

[Toft123]

yeah, Scott Reeder was more a creative part of Kyuss' sound than Oliveri was

[borntohula]

hahaha

[aostereo]

i don't like nicks music outside qotsa...

he thinks so linear... like no deep arranges at all.

and his lyrics are always so basic...

the only good thing about his music is his dessert sessions/palm springs rock scene influence.... thats all

just my opinion

[omnistatic]

i'm not his biggest fan, but i do like this song...

[Joah1991]

I agree. When he and Josh worked together, it was magic, but alone, not so much.

[justwannamakeluv]

Pretty good stuff, how can anyone not think this guy has talent. He proved it in queens of the stone age and with this band!

[Paulocity8]

No doubt he had a enormous pull on Kyuss and QOTSA's early stuff. QOTSA continue at pace but you just have to wonder how great they'd be with Nick writing songs. Fuck I miss Kyuss!

[dookie2kie]

Kyuss have left a serious wake of inspiration behind them which still ripples with sweat hair and adrenaline!!! I for one love the whole scene, the naysayers who put nick down for what he supposedly done need to look at other "artists" such as Wacko and Gary children Glitter and before judging so quickly!!

Lose the NME/Kerrang attitude which I liken to Hello/OK magazine at this stage. Formulate an opinion based on the music which is what used to count!

IN KYUSS WE TRUST!! IN EARTH WE MUST! T

[torkrench]

Yess, it still nipples with sweaty hair and adrenaline....you said it comrade..you said it. Let us together burn the trees down....who needs em eh?

[dookie2kie]

I think of it as a big extended family, the "family" is John Garcia, Josh Homme, Nick Oliveri, Brant Bjork, Alfredo Hernandez, Scott Reeder, Molly Maguire, Dave Catching, Joey Castillo, Mark Lanegan, Natasha Schneider, RIP, Fred Drake, Mario lalli, Dean Ween And all the ppl who have played with Kyuss or Qotsa!

Then You take all these guys and follow their career paths in the many many fantastic bands that play from the creation of Sons of Kyuss and sit back and exhale deeply with a smile :)

[Multibjarne]

Fred is also dead, dude...

[dookie2kie]

unfortunateley,, pity!!

[RMNTNayn]

@dookie2kie Um.....you're missing a big one. Dave Grohl!

[dookie2kie]

@RMNTNayn

Some dudes need no mention!! Its the smaller fish that need a chance at the fry!!

Thats why I mention them!! Im about getting the Rock and making it roll muddefuzzer!!!

Desert Rock Ireland - finding a groove in the spaces in between!! :)

[BrixSnBs]

i think this shows who the primary songwriter has and always will be in queens

[ThePsyrix]

Ye...blatantly Josh!!! think this band is ok but nothing on QOTSA even without Nick...

[megaponchogdl]

why?

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyy?

do you lie me josh, and kick my ass out of queens of the..... ? hahahahahahahaha

[megaponchogdl]

without queens of the stone age, he lost the way!

[SpaceRitual]

Queens of the stoneage lost their way without Nick. I will say I prefer Queens to Mondo generator, but once Nick was booted, Josh took the band in a sort of "meh" direction.

[DegenerateJackrabbit]

Btw that was a reply to bobbyfalcon

[muleofthepackthatis]

Ha. I always thought it was weird that Nick was too stoner for QOTSA and too punk for the Dwarves and too pyschedelic for Kyuss.

QOTSA's last two albums sounded more like the bands Josh was producing like Millionaire. Not sure if that's a good thing but I'm pretty sure everyone agrees that QOTSA would be better with Nick.

Also I heard Josh is producing the new Artic Monkeys album, so if the last two albums are anything to go by expect some scumbag- Sheffield-indie-rock on the next QOTSA album.

[Sparne91]

I gotta say you're right about the fact that more recent QOTSA tracks, especially 3's & 7's or Sick Sick Sick, sound a lot like Millionaire. I personally like it, about as much as the older tracks.

[garagedancer]

thats true, hes missing badly

[h1soka]

sorry? baldly?

[bobbypfalcon]

QOTSA has sucked without Oliveri - now Queens are a pretentious outfit that has seemingly run out of riffs. And I am a HUGE Kyuss, Qotsa, etc. fan - it would be neat to see Josh crush that ridiculous ego and start making the music that got him where he is. Oliveri isn't a frontman but this new album is more interesting and entertaining than the last two QOTSA albums.

[Fratzicaaaaa]

true

[Het81]

To each his own man. Personally I think Mondo Generator is pretty run of the mill at best and plain bad at worst. I think Era Vulgaris is QOTSA best album yet.

[azambory]

obviously you dont listen to mush QOTSA

[Het81]

Really? You are basing this on what? That I have a different opinion than you about something that is totally subjective and no real answer to? If you want to listen to Rated R or Queens of The Stone Age, (which I fucking love) then great. I am just saying I like Era Vulgaris more than anything. In other words go fuck yourself.

[nikhilsippy]

has to be rated r

[mekchaa]

why do you all hate on each other? its always interesting to listen to a new qotsa album. never know what to expect. That's what i like about them.

[PhasersOnFunky]

Yeah. Because honestly, fuck progression. That's boring. Let's make Blues for the Red Sun over again or ten variations of Mexicola for every album.

[DegenerateJackrabbit]

I almost agree with that. Keeping in mind that Tangled up in Plaid, Burn the Witch, Little Sister, I Never Came, Im Designer, Into The Hollow, Make it Wit Chu, 3's & 7's etc. are some of the best QOTSA songs... so basically i dont agree with that..

[hunter2979]

I find the littler ones are a little better such as First It Giveth and In The Fade

[DegenerateJackrabbit]

Oh yeah same, i was just saying the good songs on Lullabies and Era Vulgaris

[420Honey]

Wheh... this reeks. From the high ranks of qotsa, to this... ? cmon.

[Dmitrii1399]

Amazing song, in my opinion.

And,hey, do you all mind stopping all this Nick\Josh crap????right now,they are what they are and thee's no use arguing about it.

[HamburgerMartyr]

I prefer this over the newer Queens stuff. Nick rules.

[mashmnky]

sounds kinda like old kyuss

[BlackVirusxz]

yeh, nick is nothing without josh. good thing josh is still amazing without nick

[master3ape]

I dont like QOtsa with out Nick Oliveri, but Mondo Generator is ok :)

[finchism]

this band is great...shitty record label though

[KinoHermesJourney]

Everybody defending wife-beating is a misogynist.

[Y2Kevo]

Defending Oliveri beating women makes you a dumbass. Defending Oliveri's music without Josh Homme though, makes you brain dead.

[bangsmacky]

Yea I meant that. Cmon KYUSS is a very favorite band of mine from waayy back, but music is just music, who cares if Nick is a beater of his wife or not? thats his personal shit. pussies :}

[bangsmacky]

HEY, maybe his bitch ass wife needed a fuckin beat down did you ever think of that? huh? maybe he caught her blowing his buddies or somthing. wtf maybe if more women took an ass kicking their wouldnt be so many divorces. divorses ruin more lives then a little domestic violence. hell my dad beat my mothers ass when she needed it and ive NEVER punched a woman. ind believe me i had a few that really deserved it.!! so get over it you pussys.

[NuclearGuru350]

...that's just terrible.

[SnozzberryStout]

...you are fucked up

[danielhl22]

hahahaha

motherfuuuuuuuuuuuuucker

[mutjuren]

Who cares if he was beating his wife. He's a great musician and i enjoy listening to him. Bring him back to queens of the stone age, QOTSA needs Nick to get the great sound back.

[M3lloW55]

the wife beating makes him a bitch. BUT besides that this is one bad ass muther who should be in Queens for life. rock the fuck on.

[danzig5]

I mean, I feel him 'cause I sing and play bass. but i don't know...his screaming sounds like Billy Talent or something haha. Definitly NOT qotsa, that's for sure. and don't respect the whole wife beating bullshit.

[emilioasis]

I miss Nick in QOTSA

[jmaer91]

QotSA is too good or Nick.

[EveryGlanceYouShotMe]

i miss Kyuss.

[thunderryu04]

sounds like a QotSA b-sides song... it's alright but would never make it onto a Queens album. Sorry nick, you kick ass as a bass player but you'll never leave that sound outta your music...

[UltimateBeliever]

Mondo Generator will fucking kill you! Gimmie a Triple Cuervo and anything but a Miller.

[RATMBesiktas]

why is no one from the desert scene working with nick anymore

[christopherross1991]

because he beat his wife.

[MattNJM]

xD

but seriously that's kinda weird. Nick's a really... charismatic stoner-as-fuck guy.

[dookie2kie]

Think bout it.. why would you not follow Nick as well, thats a kick ass tune!!! its got the heavy and the groove!!

Why? cause some ppl forget that they can make a choice NOT based on what Josh thinks or does!!!

They be called the fans of Desert rock and everything this genre came from and is originating into!! Not just the Qotsa fans!!

Desert/Fuzz rock can be heard in Europe from the Baltic states right down to Ireland where I am!!

Support a band for the music not the media hype!!!

[dookie2kie]

The split!!!!

You know when u break up with a girl and all the shared friends u had suddenly have to choose between the 2 of yee!!

Well this is the shiznit -

Some ppl who adore Josh in the screaming fan way allied to him & in turn do d bitchy comment route same as an ended relationship.

while others will ally to both - Neutrality!! Good way to be, means u can appreciate both..

while others still will recoil and ally to Nick, and only follow the punk end of thing dwarves mondo et al!!

[jhizzie89]

i like nick, but this isnt good.

[lozzyloveyou]

oooo alot of anger in these set of embarrassing comments hmm?

Sexy song. Go nick!

[nosensenow]

why?

[Pregidth]

boring

[uploadexplode]

wild man. wild.

[jimgraph]

Ian Taylor is amazing in guitar!

[jivestick123]

I agree....fuck nick in his face!

[wontgetfooledagain1]

Fuck Oliveri.

[lastcallpagee]

I second that

Fuck Oliveri

[cregmac79]

this video(song) is fuckin awesome considering nick probably doesnt get most of the credit fot qotsa...m2cents

[cregmac79]

i think i heard this sentiment on other threads as well, but remeber autopilot, gonna leave you well sung, hes got different attributes to to a band that used to collaborate. ive seen them 2x once with turbonegro in hartford probably my favorite show ever

[peteole]

i think it would make the song if he got mark lanegan to sing all the non screaming. it needs a gravelly voice.
