The Alternative-Rock act Eagles Of Death Metal started out in 1998 as
a side-project for Palm Desert, California USA-based singer+guitarist
Josh Homme, perhaps better known as frontman of Queens
Of The Stone Age and Jesse 'The Devil' Hughes on guitar+drums &
vocals.
After recruiting guitarist Timmy VanHamel, the band kicked off their
first tour in late 2003 playing dates with Placebo.
A few months later, in March 2004 to be exact, "Peace Love Death
Metal" came out on AntAcidAudio/ Rekords Rekords; their debut full-length
album reached the #34 on the Billboard's Top Independent chart.
In the fall of 2005 Homme and Hughes were joined in the studio by the
hilarious Jack Black from Tenacious D, The
Distillers frontwoman and wife of Homme Brody Dalle, guitarist Mark
Lanegan, ex-Hole Samantha Maloney and Joey
Castillo on drums to record Eagles Of Death Metal's sophomore CD, "Death
By Sexy"; it was released in April 2006 prefaced by the single "I
Want You So Hard (Boy's Bad News)".
