Queens of the Stone Age Release ‘Where the Goth Girls At?’

Published 23 September 2026

Queens of the Stone Age released “Where the Goth Girls At?” as the third single from their upcoming album, “Perfecth,” accompanied by a video featuring comedian Steve Agee, Scarlett Kapella and Lou Lou Safran. The album is scheduled for release on October 30, 2026, according to details shared with the release. The song follows “Easy Street” and “Insignificant Other,” previously released tracks from the band’s ninth studio album. Frontman Josh Homme said its lyrics draw on memories of his youth in the suburbs of Palm Desert, California, including goth girls working at a JCPenney and giving makeovers to older customers. He described the song as being about teenage love. The video also features members of the band. It was directed by Christopher Gross and Tony Wolski, according to one account; another account spelled the first director’s surname as Gruse. The discrepancy was not resolved in the available information. The video places its performers at a deserted power plant, where the goth characters transform people they encounter, according to its description. Homme and band member Michael Shuman produced “Perfecth.
