Oddbean new post about login | logout @2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b Queens frequently featured Mark and is arguably a supergroup of it's own. Formed by former members of Kyuss Josh Homme and Nick Oliveri (check out Space Cadet by them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcU-IfF-CWY) they frequently had Mark as a contributor. Absolutely kills it on tracks like [In the Fade](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P92tZ5ae720), [Hanging Tree](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=473wEdL_GzU) or [Song for the Dead](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOsmG-sufNc)
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b Eagle-eyed watchers may notice that in Song for the Dead, there is a familiar drummer Dave Grohl, from tiny bands like Nirvana or the Foo Fighters. That's it's own thread which we're going to come back to in a second, but you might also want to check out The Desert Sessions, which is just Josh Homme from Queens asking everyone cool if they want to jam, and everyone cool being like "yeah." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Desert_Sessions
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b But anyway, back to our topic at hand. Dave Grohl is in Josh Homme's band. Did they collaborate further? Oh, that's right, the literal answer I thought of when this topic came up. Josh played guitar and did vocals in a band with Dave on drums. Completing the three-piece - John Paul Jones from a little band no one's ever heard of called Led Zeppelin. They form Them Crooked Vultures, and release one album.
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b Them Crooked Vultures self-titled, aka the album that carried me through 2010 had personal faves like [No one loves me and neither do I](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMLHqAUyhEk), [Scumbag Blues](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8MlvHJPveY), and [Elephants](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkUMp7oWXvc)
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b Alright, lets cd ../../.. a few times back in this thread to Chris Cornell. Post Soundgarden, Chris releasesd a bunch of bangers solo like [Can't Change Me](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecoWjR3fDT0), [Seasons](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uwT1Q6JeB4), and [Nothing Compares 2 U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuUDRU9-HRk)
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b But folks, we're not here for Chris's solo work (I'm always here for it, actually) we're here for Supergroups. So what happens when political protest rap-rock group like Rage Against the Machine have a falling out with the lead singer? A band that made [Killing in the Name](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8de2W3rtZsA), [Calm Like a Bomb](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKm6GkXOHCc) and [Guerilla Radio](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rm1nCYOZB-s)?
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b Easy my children, you take all of the instrumentalists from Rage, add Chris on vocals, and form Audioslave and become known for this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rm1nCYOZB-s, though I'm partial to [Cochise](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDMvN45sjo4) and [Shadow on the Sun](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGYGfaM694M)
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b And we can pull that thread a little more. Tom Morello, probably one of the best/most influential guitar players in the last 3 decades, would also go on and form another supergroup with members of Cypress Hill and Public Enemy. They sound like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2220MdXVPGw
@2fe92171 @cfcf7cd7 @a6ff0b2b Anyway, fun topic. If we turned this into a coolest collabs thread, holy shit I'd be here all night. Pick basically any name in this thread, and they've worked with someone amazing that you didn't expect. anyway, go listen to @2fe92171, my favorite show about buying a refrigerator and learning if we can even do a vacation (I told you I was bad at pitching this.)
