"If I Had A Tail" comes from ...Like Clockwork, the sixth Queens of the Stone Age album, which Matador put out in June 2013 after a stormy stretch of false starts and the exit of long-serving drummer Joey Castillo. Behind the kit here is Dave Grohl, on drums and percussion, while Josh Homme sings his own lyric and the band take the composing credit. It's a slinky, leering strut, all menace and swagger.

Homme produced it with the band, and Mark "Top" Rankin engineered and mixed it, with Alain Johannes and Justin Smith on additional engineering. Homme framed the whole album as a record of pushing forward through a rough time rather than running from it.
