Over the Years and Through the Woods

Over the Years and Through the Woods is the title of a live album and video by Queens of the Stone Age. The release features material on audio CD as well as video DVD—both recorded at London's Brixton Academy on Monday August 22, 2005 and KOKO on Tuesday August 23, 2005.

Recording and release
Over the Years and Through the Woods is the first live release by the band, and is sold as two different packages—either a CD case or a DVD case. Both versions include the same content on the discs. The DVD content was directed by Chapman Baehler.
