...Like Clockwork

...Like Clockwork is the sixth studio album by American rock band Queens of the Stone Age. It was released on June 3, 2013 in the United Kingdom and a day later in the United States by Matador Records, as the first of three albums on the label. Self-produced by the band, it is the first Queens of the Stone Age album to feature full contributions from bassist Michael Shuman and keyboardist and guitarist Dean Fertita, who both joined the band in 2007 to tour in support of the band's fifth studio album, Era Vulgaris, and record its bonus tracks.

After several false starts and stops, the band began recording ...Like Clockwork in August 2012, initially hoping that collaborator Trent Reznor would produce the album. Following a stormy recording period, which included the departure of long-time drummer Joey Castillo, founding member Josh Homme described the album as "documenting the journey of moving forward, you know. It was a tough time and I thought, 'I can run away from this, or I can run into it.'"

Upon release, ...Like Clockwork received critical acclaim and was a commercial success, debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200, earning the band their first US number-one album, and number two on the UK Albums Chart. The album was nominated for three Grammy Awards, including Best Rock Album.
