How Did Unreleased Queens of the Stone Age End Up on Australian Folksinger’s Album?

August 18, 2017 Alan Cross 0 Comments 0 min read

In a major oops, fans of Australian folktronica singer Gordi, noticed that she sounded…different on side two of the vinyl edition of her debut album, Reservoir. That’s because those songs are from the still-unreleased Queens of the Stone Age album, Villians.

The error at the pressing plant had QotSA songs “Fortress,” “Head Like a Haunted House” and “Unreborn Again” on the B-side of Gordi’s album.

Both albums will officially be released next Friday (August 25) but are set to come out on different labels. People at the vinyl plant are looking to solve this issue ASAP.

Hey, it’s good publicity for Gordi, right?
