Over the Years and Through the Woods

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.{{Cite web |last=NME |date=2005-11-04 |title=Queens Of The Stone Age to unleash double live DVD/CD |url=https://www.nme.com/news/music/queens-of-the-stone-age-194-1366215 |access-date=2024-03-10 |website=NME |language=en-GB}}

• Joey Castillo – drums

• The track "Spiders and Vinegaroons" from the 1997 split EP Kyuss/Queens of the Stone Age is played during the DVD's main menu.
• The song "The Fun Machine Took a Shit & Died" was initially slated to be included on Lullabies to Paralyze, but was misplaced. During that time, the band assumed that the tapes of the song were either lost or stolen. The song was later released as a single in June 2007.

• During every weekend in the month of November 2005, DirecTV aired an edited version of the main feature DVD content on their "freeview" channel to promote the DVD/CD release on November 22, 2005. The songs that were removed for time constraints were: "Feel Good Hit of the Summer", "The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret", "The Fun Machine Took a Shit and Died", "I Think I Lost My Headache" and "I Never Came". The edited version also censored some explicit language and brief nudity from the program.
• A hidden audio commentary can be enabled for the bonus footage. It features comments from the entire band (Josh Homme, Joey Castillo, Alain Johannes, Troy Van Leeuwen and Natasha Shneider) and was recorded on October 1, 2005 on the day of their performance as the opening act for Nine Inch Nails at the Hollywood Bowl. It is accessible by entering the Sound Options menu in the Bonus section and turning on the French subtitles, or by switching the audio track while watching the footage.
• Although credits for the bonus tracks were not included, two songs from the Rated R section ("Better Living Through Chemistry" and "Auto Pilot") were recorded at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, Ohio on October 4, 2000 — not "somewhere in Europe" as surmised by Homme in the bonus clip commentary. These tracks were recorded and edited by Sie Callebs and John Waters.
