  1. EODM thrives on confidence, not exploration, and Heart On finds the pair plenty cocksure.
  2. 80
    The tracks on Heart On don't veer from EoDM's favored subjects of Los Angeles fakery, sex, girls, sexy girls, and how they're gonna get sexy girls. But shit, that doesn't matter because they're sure as hell sticking to what they do best (with their trusty cow-bell, no less): they make you want to rock out and get your sleazy dance-on at some greasy bar with a PBR.

    All round, a party atmosphere prevails--and undoubtedly a good time is had by all.
  4. 60
    Their third album is more highly evolved than what normally constitutes straight up good-time rock. [Feb 2009, p.105]

    I love this album. It wakes me up in the morning and puts me in the right mood for the day. Awesome!

    Excellent. Absolutely superb. Their best offering yet. Everything that's great about EoDM is captured on this album and refined to perfection. It's the perfect mix of catchy EoDM tunes you expect with a couple of interesting more complex tracks thrown in. If you're a fan, this is a must have! Expand

    Oh man, just as much fun as their first two albums, but surprisingly complex.
  4. Eagles Of Death Metal still manage to make some great hip-shakin' tunes, but on Heart On the song-writing is a lot better and the way the songs are arranged aren't as sloppy as they were in Death By Sexy. Eagles are slowly becoming a better band and I can't wait for what they do next. Expand
