  Ipecac Recordings - Desert Sessions
In other words, it's a typically adventurous and bewitching Desert Sessions album, reflecting both the assembled musicians' variegated talents and the startling songwriting chemistry and collaborative, communal creativity that the Desert Sessions perpetually draw from participants, regardless of their experience or status.
"Desert Sessions is good for me, and for the musicians that participate, because you get with a bunch of people you do and don't know — amazingly talented people — and you hear things done in a way you never would have thought of," says Homme.

The middle of the desert the place to misbehave.
On one level, it's an awkward fit: the expectations that would normally accompany one of the Queens or Harvey's 'proper' records are ill-suited to the eccentricities of The Desert Sessions.
Ironically, it's the relative consistency of '9&10' that may prove the The Desert Sessions' downfall, since it provokes a sticky dilemma for Josh Homme.

Evolving from the regular improvisational jam sessions organized by the disbanded Kyuss, the Desert Sessions albums unite a number of diverse and talented musicians under the guidance of ex-Kyuss guitarist, Queens of the Stone Age guitarist-singer Josh Homme for a solid week of songwriting, playing and recording.
For the newest chapter in his Desert Sessions anthology, Homme recruited a number of like-minded rockers, including Twiggy Ramirez and Dean Ween, as well as a few unlikely collaborators, such as PJ Harvey, to join him at the Joshua Tree recording studio in California.
As it progresses, "Desert Sessions: Volumes 9 & 10" seamlessly blends the unique abilities of every participant to build a remarkably vital collection of music that still references its creators' pasts but manages to defy any form of categorization.

Hanging out and recording at Rancho de la Luna Studio in Joshua Tree, California, Homme and various musical pals have also released a series of Desert Sessions CDs that rely on neither the kitschy ’70s references nor the recycled Sabbath riffs that have become stoner-rock clichés.
Among Desert Sessions 7 and 8’s many fine moments is an appearance by Mark Lanegan on "Hanging Tree," a top-notch rock tune that benefits from Lanegan’s grunge-perfect voice and some hypnotizing background effects.
Even better than Queens of the Stone Age’s last record, these sessions are a wild, uninhibited orgy of truly tweaked-out guitar jams.

The Desert Sessions are a musical improv series "that cannot be defined".
The Sessions began in August 1997 at a place called Rancho de la Luna in Joshua Tree when Homme brought together musicians from the bands Monster Magnet, Goatsnake, earthlings?, Kyuss (his own band) and Soundgarden.
The first "session" was not actually a Desert Session per se, but Homme and his band at the time (The Acquitted Felons) playing for three days straight under the non-stop influence of mushrooms.

So now the sessions are on a major label, attention is as big as if they were a full Queens' record and to crank their profile even higher, PJ Harvey is one of the co-conspirators.
They may be democracy gone doolally but the Desert Sessions are such a great idea that every band should sign Homme and whoever he can rustle up as consultants.

 Various - Desert Sessions 9 & 10 : album review
Now with two multi-platinum selling albums under his belt, Queens' front man Josh Homme has once again retreated to his desert ranch with a selection of friends and associates, this time including P J Harvey, to get loaded and crank out volumes 9 and 10 of his infamous Desert Sessions.
Away from the commercial spotlight that is so sharply focussed on the Queens, the Desert Sessions allow Josh and his cohorts to spin off on tangents, experiment and generally mess around.
I think it's cool that it comes out and people review it and that's good, but the main reason is, 'Do you remember why you started playing?'" The Desert Sessions are a valuable reminder of what this whole music business should really be about.
