Formed from the ashes of stoner rock icons Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age reunited the group’s singer/guitarist Josh Homme, drummer Alfredo Hernandez, and bassist Nick Oliveri along with new guitarist/keyboardist Dave Catching. The project’s origins date back to Homme, who in the wake of Kyuss’ 1995 demise relocated to Seattle to tour with the Screaming Trees; he soon began working with a revolving lineup of musicians including the Trees’ Van Conner, Soundgarden’s Matt Cameron, and Dinosaur Jr.’s Mike Johnson, recording a series of 7″s originally issued under the name Gamma Ray. After rechristening the group Queens of the Stone Age, Homme recruited Hernandez to begin work on their self-titled debut LP, issued in late 1998 on Loosegroove; after the album was completed, Oliveri left the Dwarves to rejoin his former bandmates, with the subsequent addition of Catching rounding out the roster.  Who played drums on Queens Of The Stone Age’s third album?

A) Alfredo Hernandez

B) Matt Cameron

C) Dave Grohl
