Queens of the Stone Age have confirmed that current line up - Nick Oliveri on bass, Josh Homme on guitar and vocals, Mark Lanegan on vocals, Troy Van Leeuwen on guitar and keyboards and Joey Castillo on drums – will become permanent. Since they formed in 1997 QOTSA have been notable for the regular guest appearances in certain roles in the band - with Screaming Trees Van Conner, Soundgarden's Matt Cameron, Dinosaur Jr's Mike Johnson and, of course, Foo Fighters Dave Grohl all making appearances on certain recordings or tours. But the band now say the current line up is permanent and they will be working together for the foreseeable future. The band plan to tour for much of the rest of the summer before returning to the studio to work on a fourth album which they hope to release early next year.
