Queens of the Stone Age have today revealed the details of their 8th studio album.

In Times New Roman... is the next effort to come from the rockers and comes six years since they released their last record Villains in 2017.

Their first take from the record comes in the form of lead track Emotions Sickness, which you can listen to below.

This Friday (12th May) will see the track's Liam Lynch-directed official video premiere at 6pm. Until them, watch the band's album teaser below:

Glory To Rome! - In Times New Roman… Coming June 16

The forthcoming album, which consists of 10 tracks, has been described as "raw, at times brutal and not recommended for the faint of heart."

A press release explains: "Founder Joshua Homme's most acerbic lyrics to date are buoyed by the instantly identifiable QOTSA sonic signature, expanded and embellished with new and unprecedented twists in virtually every song.

"With In Times New Roman… we see that sometimes one needs to look beneath scars and scabs to see beauty, and sometimes the scabs and scars are the beauty."
