Watch Queens Of The Stone Age’s NSFW ‘From The Cliff’ video, co-written by Josh Homme

Queens Of The Stone Age have shared a steamy and violent new video for ‘From The Cliff’, which was co-written by frontman Josh Homme – watch below.

The track is taken from the band’s ninth studio album ‘Perfecth’, which was released on October 30 and went straight to Number One in the UK.

The video was co-written by Homme and filmmaker Nathalia Pizarro, who also directed and edited the clip, and it stars Homme alongside actors Kaiman Kazazian, Natalia Safran and Steve Olson.

The cinematic short film begins with intimate topless bedroom scenes between Homme’s character and a woman, before revealing that the two are holding an older man captive in the next room, tied to a chair. The woman is seen stabbing the man, while his blood is plastered in hand and footprints across the apartment.

Pizarro is a Canadian-born, Los Angeles-based filmmaker who is currently working on her debut feature film, Illomen, which will also star Homme alongside Sol Rodriguez, Lou Lou Safran and Booboo Stewart, and is expected to begin its festival run in spring 2027.

The ‘From The Cliff’ clip continues the band’s series of elaborate videos accompanying ‘Perfecth’, including ‘Easy Street’ and ‘Where The Goth Girls At?’.

In NME‘s four-star review, the record was described as the band’s “most intimate and adventurous work yet”, with ‘From The Cliff’ singled out as “a finger-pickin’ good lullaby” on which Homme gives himself over to love.

In a recent interview with NME, Homme opened up about the album’s themes and his willingness to explore more vulnerable emotional territory.

“Honestly, this is a record about all the facets of love,” he explained. “I don’t think that we could have or I could have written about that exclusively in the years previous, but we’re here now.

“I think writing about family, friends, significant others, insignificant others, the immense soul-crushing brutality of heartbreak and how love is the only conduit to some semblance of hope – there are so many facets to the mental health issue that is love.”

He also described the new era as the beginning of the band’s “third act”, characterised by a search for peace after years of embracing chaos and confrontation.

Meanwhile, Queens have announced North American and European dates for their 2027 ‘Perfecth’ world tour, with further European and UK shows expected to be announced.

Speaking about their live plans, Homme recently told NME: “I think we’re going to do something that’s beyond what we’ve ever done before. We learned something about the theatrics of all that, almost Vaudeville and magic. We’re going to do something I really don’t want to talk about.”

The band will first complete a run of shows in Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand before returning to the road in 2027, including a huge co-headline show with Interpol in Mexico City.
