Hughes' titillating vocal performance makes these Eagles soar. [26 Mar 2004, p.73]
-
Canned Heat mixed with Kiss and chopped into lines with Elvis and Queens Of The Stone Age.
-
80Eagles of Death Metal aren't air-quote ironic like the Darkness; they're a passionately played goof for Homme. [May 2004, p.120]
-
Opener "I Only Want You" busts the QOTSA model with a little funk and jive. The rest of the album follows suit: a Queens backbone and Seventies rib.
-
72Peace Love Death Metal is at its best when the inside joke is buried deep in the music, but whenever the deathtongue is planted squarely in the deathcheek, the songs turn not just silly, but lumbering and self-indulgent, overburdened by the overriding concept.
-
70A swaggering, intoxicating tight-but-loose debut. [Jun 2004, p.107]
-
70Often shambolic and in-jokey, it's also sensationally good fun. [May 2004, p.93]
-
70Splendidly queasy listening. [May 2004, p.100]
-
If there's a problem, it's that the fifteen songs tend to blur together after nearly forty-five minutes.
-
So authentic, you'll think songs like "Bad Dream Mama" were put to tape 25 years ago. [Jun 2004, p.108]
-
Like all great garage rock, it all sounds the same, but that doesn't matter.
-
The two-man, woogie-filled boogie team is fine for 30 minutes.
-
20The worst record [Homme's] name has ever graced. [#10, p.89]
