The straight-up, good-times rock played by the Eagles of Death Metal could have easily slipped through the cracks if not for two major factors: the band's drummer is Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme, and the songs really are quite good. Homme and co-conspirator Jesse Hughes definitely have their tongues in their cheeks from time to time, but as the band surely understands (as evidenced by the title of its 2006 full-length, DEATH BY SEXY), you can't have fun playing glittery boogie-metal if you're taking yourself too seriously.
