ZAGREB, September 27, 2021 – Legendary American rock’n’roll savages, Eagles of Death Metal, return to Zagreb for a club concert, at the Culture Factory, on Friday, March 25, 2022.
EODM had already sold out Boogaloo in Zagreb and the Culture Factory.
This time they are coming to Croatia as part of the second part of the world tour, which marks 24 years of playing, and in the first half of next year they will visit 30 cities in 19 countries across Europe. The performance at the Culture Factory in Zagreb will be the only one in the region.
“Anyone who loves rock’n’roll should go out into rock’n’roll. I feel like I’ve been locked in for years and ready to let go of the chain. The Eagles of Death Metal are ready to rise again,” said frontman Jesse Hughes.
Known for their infectiously good energy and performances, the EODM live band also includes Jennie Vee on bass, Jorma Vik on drums and Joshua Jove on guitar.
Eagles of Death Metal was founded by best friends Jesse Hughes and Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age) in 1998 in California. The name came about when they wondered what the combination of Eagles and death metal would sound like, a genre they don’t play despite the name, but with unbounded frames they represent energetic rock with fierce guitar riffs and drums, playing with the aesthetics of dirty rock and witty lyrics.
One of the most entertaining rock’n’roll bands and giants of the genre. The albums “Peace, Love, Death Metal” (2004), “Death by Sexy” (2006) and “Heart On” (2008) launched them to the very top of the world guitar scene, while hits like “I Want You So Hard ”,“ I Got a Feelin ’(Just Nineteen)”, “Wannabe in LA”, “Miss Alissa”, “Cherry Cola”, “Only Want You” promise destructive energy.
The band also announced the release of a six-song EP, and “Eagles of Death Metal Presents A Boots Electric Christmas” will be released on November 19th. At the release, EODM’s Jesse “Boots Electric” Hughes with his alter ego will contribute to holiday classics such as “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” “Put A Little Love In Your Heart,” “Little Drummer Boy” or “Little Town Of Bethlehem” . “O Holy Night” will be recorded in a special acappella version, which will be sung by EODM’s Joshua Homme.
EODM returns to a club in Zagreb they know well, in front of a loyal audience that is more and more with each new arrival. They will be accompanied on the tour by the band Bones UK.
