* WannabeLine: The point of the song "Silverlake", which has a recurring refrain of someone trying to get in.
-->''Don't be uncool man, 'cos the owner's like my best friend.\\
Make sure you tell him girl, just how important that I am\\
I am from Silverlake and therefore I don't give a damn\\
Don't you know who I am\\
Don't you know who I am\\
...\\
So if you date this guy he's gonna let us in\\
Don't be uncool baby, you know you are my everything.\\
Make sure you tell him, girl, just how important that I am\\
I am from Silverlake and I am in a "cool band"\\
...\\
OK, I'm not the guy\\
I might have said I am\\
Its almost closing time c'mon, man\\
Please just let me in.\\
Can you not the see the style of hipster\\
I most surely am\\
I'm trying twice as hard as anyone you just let in.''

Hughes said that a friend was trying to introduce Josh Homme to the death metal genre. When he played a song by the Polish band Vader and made a claim that the song was death metal, Homme called them "The Eagles of death metal". After hearing this phrase, he wondered what a cross between the Eagles and a death metal band would sound like. In a 2003 interview Homme described the sound of the band as a combination of "bluegrass slide guitar mixed with stripper drum beats and Canned Heat vocals." Jesse Hughes is known and loved by fans for his enthusiastic and charismatic interaction with audiences at live performances.
