Poison the Well’s Chris Hornbrook has unveiled his video audition originally created to become Queens of the Stone Age’s new drummer.


QOTSA apparently picked their new drummer before Hornbrook submitted his video, with the musician writing the following:


“So a good friend of mine was told to round up a group of drummers to video audition for QOTSA with the departure of Joey Castillo. Pretty much as this was being finished up, they apparently picked his replacement; even before I had a chance to submit mine! Bummer. Regardless, it was super fun learning and recording this song.


Enjoy!”
