“PERFECTH”
New Tour, New Album, New Single
October 26th, 2026 by Traci Turner
Queens of the Stone Age have set a month-long 2027 trek in support of their forthcoming album, “Perfecth.” Pixies and Wheelchair Sports Camp will be along for the 16-date ride which kicks off in San Diego at Viejas Arena on May 1st.
SoCal fans can also catch them May 2nd in Inglewood at the Kia Forum before the band makes their way across the country, closing the tour out in Boston on May 24th.
Last week QOTSA debuted a new single from the album entitled “Where the Goth Girls At?” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” The band has previously released “Insignificant Other.”
The Los Angeles band’s ninth album, “Perfecth” is slated for release this Friday. The title allegedly refers to frontman Josh Homme’s belief “that the word ‘Perfect’ doesn’t exist.”
“Every song sounds like it’s from a different world,” he explained. “And that’s on purpose, because it’s trying to stitch together all these emotions revolving around love, lust, foolishness, and the sort of wisdom that comes as a gift from all that.”
“Perfecth” will be available on CD, standard black vinyl, and clear vinyl. There is also a fancypants limited deluxe edition that includes “handwritten lyrics, stationary, ‘stamps’ housed inside a custom envelope as well as a bespoke piece of art temporarily placed in a custom pocket.”
Queens of the Stone Age will finish 2026 out with shows in Iceland, Japan, China, Australia, and New Zealand. They will kick 2027 off with international Lollapalooza dates, then this month of shows. More headline shows for 2027 are expected to be announced soon.
Tickets for this first batch of dates go on sale to the general public this Thursday at 10 a.m. local time.
