Queens of the Stone Age Drop Visuals for 'From The Cliff'
The desert rockers have released a harrowing new short film for their latest single.
Queens of the Stone Age have unveiled the official music video for "From The Cliff", a standout track from their ninth studio album, "Perfecth". The visual piece serves as a narrative exploration of love and trauma, directed by Nathalia Pizarro. Pizarro, who also co-wrote the track, helmed the production via her company, The New American Picture Show.
While Josh Homme typically leans into themes of melancholy or anger, "From The Cliff" marks a departure toward a simpler, more direct expression of affection. The short film stars Homme alongside actresses Kaiman Kazazian and Natalia Safran, and actor Steve Olson. Pizarro is currently in post-production on her debut feature, "Illomen", which is slated for a festival run in 2027.
From The Cliff represents an intentional effort to express a straightforward 'I love you'.
"Perfecth" has already made waves on the global charts, hitting number one in the UK and Australia. The nine-track collection, released via Matador Records, was recorded across various locations from New Orleans to Los Angeles. Homme describes the record as an attempt to weave together disparate emotions including lust, foolishness, and hard-won wisdom.
Fans can witness the band's live craft during a performance on NPR's "World Café" on November 13. Furthermore, the band has announced a massive "Perfecth" world tour beginning May 1, 2027, in San Diego. The trek features supporting acts The Pixies and Wheelchair Sports Camp, following a comprehensive autumn 2026 headline run through Asia and Oceania.
