## Summary

Queens of the Stone Age have launched a 24/7 "complaint hotline," inviting fans and detractors alike to phone in with their gripes. Announced on 5 August 2026, the initiative is a playful marketing stunt from Josh Homme and his bandmates, timed to keep the group in the public eye while they tour and continue rolling out new music.

Callers can dial +1 (760) 437-1966 to voice "gripes and grievances, moans and groans" of any size, with the band saying "no bitching too big, no whiny too tiny." A press release states that complaints will be "reviewed personally," and callers may occasionally reach a live person, possibly a band member. The hotline follows July's single "Easy Street," debuted during the band's "Catacombs" run, and arrives as the group supports Foo Fighters on a North American stadium tour, with further dates planned across Canada, festivals, Iceland and Japan into November.
