Eagles Of Death Metal (lyrics, alternative, rock, fav song, debut album)

Merkaba · 04-11-2006, 05:42 PM

I can't remember if I've already made a thread on them or not.

Anyway, another supreme effort coming out of the Palm Desert, California. And another supreme effort coming out of the Josh Homme corner. Despite their name they are not a death metal band. They were formed in 1998 and have released 2 albums, with a range of their songs appearing on versions 3-4 of the Desert Sessions.

Jesse Hughes - vocals/guitar/lyrics
Josh Homme - Drums/lyrics
Samantha Maloney
Dave Catching
Claude Coleman
Brian "Big Hands" O'Connor
Joey Castillo
Tim Vanhamel
Brody Dalle

Genre: Alternative Rock or "Bluegrass slide guitar with Canned Heat style vocals"

You can listen to them here.

^ About that:

Quote:

Despite the name, the Eagles of Death Metal are not a death metal band. Hughes says the name came for a response to a drunken man who argued Poison were death metal. He said that Poison were the Eagles of death metal. Later, Josh Homme inspired him to write music that he thought would be the Eagles crossed with death metal, and their debut album was the result.

9 and imaginary huh, ok let me try this.

Sidestep - to dodge, to miss, to move away from, sidestepping is usually seen in bull fights in which the matador will sidestep the charging bull. Idiomatic uses including, avoiding disaster (such as the SJ's CD)
