Allow me to spew mindless superlatives like a hyperactive little kid, but Them Crooked Vultures is probably going to be the most mind-bending, capillary-rupturing tsunami of awesomeness to pound the shores of the modern rock scene this decade. Wait, does that sound over the top? Good.

For those of you who hate living in sunlight, Dave Grohl is the accomplished (and slightly self-inflated, from what I hear) ex-drummer of Nirvana and current Foo Fighters champion, Homme is chief asskicker of Queens of the Stone Age and an all-around brilliant songwriter, and John Paul Jones is John Paul Jones. From Led Zeppelin. (Twitch, twitch. Puke.) Them Crooked Vultures is the supergroup they formed in 2005 (joined by live rhythm guitarist Alain Johannes of QOTSA). Their debut album is due out November 16 in the UK, and November 17 in the US, which probably means there are already pirated versions flying around hither and thither.

This is still OK, though, because the entire album is available right now through the band’s YouTube channel. Of course it’s sweet, from the killer drum opening and chomping guitar riff of “New Fang” to the simple jaw-busting power of “No One Loves Me & Neither Do I.” I suggest you void your bowels to make room for the sheer rock infusion that will ensue, grab the first copy you can get your hands on, and devour that ambrosia like it’s green beer on Saint Patty’s Day.

To make me even more excited, the band has a tour lined up to sweep across much of the Western world, from the release date into early next year. Tour dates are below.

The band’s music is also available through their Myspace page, with other info available on their official site, for your worshiping convenience. Now go forth and rock out a lot.

Update: A December 8 concert at the Palladium in Koln, Germany, was filmed for German music show Rockpalast, and the entire show was posted in streaming form at this site. Check it out for a fun, 97-minute live outing.

Another update: This Peter Coffin parody on “New Fang” throws a TCV-shaped slug at Twilight and New Moon. It’s pretty hilarious.
