I gave them a good listen a few years ago because of the QOTSA connection, and they did indeed seem too much like a novelty act for my taste. It's hard to even classify their music, not that it really matters, but it just makes it hard to understand where they are coming from. It's almost like post-punk party music.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
A lot of their songs actually do sound like The Eagles with a slightly harder edge (I assume that's where they got their name from?). I'm trying to give them a chance because of Homme, but I think I'm in the same boat as you.
