Eagles of Death Metal are a garage-rock duo from Palm Desert, California, who mix a love for classic rock with a tongue-in-cheek irreverence for its conventions. While other groups flaunt their sex-and-drugs attitude, Eagles of Death Metal lightly mock that ultra-macho mindset in their songs, playing up the cocksure riffs and leering innuendo. A side project for Queens of the Stone Age frontman Joshua Homme, Eagles of Death Metal don’t take their music too seriously, targeting fans who understand that rock ‘n’ roll is best enjoyed when it’s loud and vaguely ridiculous.
