I\u2019ll bite: how about the fact that frontman Josh Homme\u2019s ex-wife Brody Dalle testified in court that he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/music\/2022\/jan\/25\/brody-dalle-testifies-josh-homme-headbutted-her-queens-of-the-stone-age\">head-butted her so hard that she \u201csaw stars\u201d<\/a> and said he had fantasised about killing her?

Homme has recently talked about coming through a dark period, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/music\/2023\/jun\/13\/josh-homme-queens-of-the-stone-age-frontman-reveals-cancer-treatment\">successful treatment for cancer<\/a>, and getting a handle on his vices. Nevertheless, there is clear footage of him brutally kicking the camera of photographer Chelsea Lauren back into her face, which he acknowledged in an apology video, and court testimony from Dalle alleging that a drunk Homme told her \u201cI want to fucking strangle you right now\u201d on one occasion, and head-butted her on another.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/music\/2026\/sep\/03\/josh-homme-newly-cosy-image-makeover-should-not-let-us-forget-his-violent-history\">Continue reading&#8230;<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/music\/2026\/sep\/03\/josh-homme-newly-cosy-image-makeover-should-not-let-us-forget-his-violent-history\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"feedzy-rss-link-icon\">Read More<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.guim.co.uk\/img\/media\/05bc4653c24fae3a851d5f0bd6012923884e77b4\/483_0_4820_3857\/master\/4820.jpg?width=140&amp;quality=85&amp;auto=format&amp;fit=max&amp;s=cf88d21dcfd5a35deca42fcfe09194c2\" title=\"Queens of the Stone Age\u2019s Josh Homme kicked a woman and his ex-wife alleged domestic abuse.
