Former QOTSA bassist Nick Oliveri announces solo album

Nick Oliveri, the former member of Queens of the Stone Age has announced a new solo album, Leave Me Alone, scheduled for a late September release via Schnitzel. Oliveri has made the album cut "Human Cannonball Explodes", which features guitar work from Dean Ween, available here. Oliveri plays almost all the instruments on the LP, and he produced the record himself, recording it at Thunder Underground Studios in Palm Springs, California. It includes guest contributions from Motörhead's Phil Campbell, Bruno Fevery from Kyuss Lives!, Mike Pygmie from Mondo Generator, Stephen Haas from Moistboyz, Marc Diamond from the Dwarves, and Blag Dahlia from the Dwarves among others.

Oliveri is due to tour later this year. His shows typically consist of acoustic sets and shows with his full band, Uncontrollable. An Irish show is doubtful.
