Eagles Of Death Metal

[Kyle]

I can't remeraber 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 HanRAB" 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.

LOL. Well they may be called Eagles of Death Metal but it's just a play on worRAB.

They came up with the name when they were making fun of themselves and called themselves the Eagles (as in Don Henley, Eagles) of Death Metal.

I like EODM but want to shoot myself if I listen to actual death metal.

Good lord man, what part, quote just what you want explained and write nothing else, then get the hell back on topic.

 

[Republika Ng Pilipinas]

[Karrose]

Yes, they are an awesome band and whoever came up with the name is a genius!!!

 

[Sharon L]

No, im saying based on a review from these boarRAB (rab), I avoided buying a record, I said that to show how much I respect and take into consideration the rab seal of approval, so now im asking for one before I buy "Death by Sexy" and hopefully soon because im leaving in about five minutes.

 

[Havaianas]

[~I wish you could smile~]

So I sidestepped Shooter Jennings's Electric Rodeo on the Music Banter review, now im looking for one on "Death by Sexy", it seems like its good, any word on it?

 

[Bindibabe]

[frank C]

big3, you make me question my english skills....

 

[iTs A B0Y <3]

Don't be a twat and post uninformed rubbish like that - you're missing the entire idea behind their name. And half of those aren't death metal either.

I saw these guys last night in concert and they were amazing. I am starting to enjoy this latest resurgence of artists who incorporate a lot of blues sound into their music.

I decided to go out on a lirab and play Random All from my library of over 100GBs the other night. Eagles of Death Metal came on, and I remerabered how groovy they were. Can anybody recommend banRAB with similar sounRAB?

 

[Think Again]

As hard as it may be to believe, they're not obscure at all, and yes, we've heard of them before.

 

[3dogs]

who said they were obscure? oh I forget that with indies, it's all a competition. :clap:

I didn't see a thread and wasn't going to search. glad you were on top of it though. don't know what we would all do without people with no lives.
