    Oliveri left Queens Of The Stone Age in 2004, with Homme accusing the bassist of disrespecting the group's fans with his on tour antics. There were also rumours, which have never been confirmed, that Homme removed Oliveri from the band when he discovered he'd been violent towards his then girlfriend.
    Oliveri said in 2010: "It took me six years to figure it out, but you know what, I would have axed me too. We did this show in Spain and I was freaking out when he didn't show up for soundcheck. When he didn't turn up, I drank a bottle of vodka and then the show wasn't good at all. Then when we supposed to go back out after the set but Josh was like 'I'm not going out there with you' and I freaked out. I wished now he had just knocked me out, I'd have been sorry when I woke up then."

    Nick had some contribution to the band, but I still think QOTSA is doing just fine without him. Josh is def now and was always the Captain of that ship. I also don't think Nick is accurate on how Josh gets rid of people after he takes what he needs from them...I think Nick's getting the boot was 100% his own doing. Actually they were buddies for years and I think Josh gave him more than his fair share of chances. Several serious drug infractions, rumors of spousal abuse and ending with a drug fueled arm stand off with the cops. come on, you can't only ignore so much.

Nick brought so much to the band while he was in it, and the band seems to lack a lot of edge since he got betrayed and was kicked. That is why "Songs for the Deaf" will always be their best album.

    That's your reaction? Really? Thank you for attempting to insult someone attacking domestic violence, you seem like a real stand up guy.

    The only thing I agree with in this video is nick’s opinion of newer queens stuff. I know a lot of people dig it but the newer albums aren’t a patch on the first 3

      Agreed, the albums that came after Nick would've been heavier if he were still in the band.

    Hmm...I was at a Kyuss Lives concert and a woman was upset about that he had beaten his wife. "He is such an asshole" but a girl I was there with just answered "Well, who knows what she did"
    I'm absolute anti-macho but there always two sides... ;)
