DESERT SESSIONS, the ongoing collaborations project founded by Queens Of The Stone Age frontman JOSH HOMME, has been busted on the week before its release.
‘Desert Sessions 9 & 10’ is released on Monday, and was due to have been available on limited-edition vinyl alongside the CD release.
However, the entire 5,000 consignment of 12″ editions has been seized at customs at New York’s JFK Airport. A spokesperson for the collective’s UK label, Island, could not confirm why the records had been seized or whether they would be returned or destroyed.
‘Desert Sessions 9 & 10’ features Homme alongside PJ Harvey and former Marilyn Manson guitarist Twiggy Ramirez. A single, ‘Crawl Home’ is released on November 3.
