If you know Eagles Of Death Metal, you’re well aware of the power of Jesse “Boots Electric” Hughes’ strut-rock charms, delivered in an uptempo booty groove never more than an arrow’s shot away from The Rolling Stones’ Brown Sugar. You know how hard the good Reverend can rock it – now Antiquiet’s got an exclusive download to add a little sexfunk in your Friday.
We recently spent the day with Jesse, who showed us around his favorite Los Angeles digs while sacrificing many plants to the fire gods, arguing about politics & religion and spinning some jaw-dropping rock n’ roll yarns. That shitkicking riot of weird is a story for another day, but in the midst of it we were also witness to a dose of musical history, Boots Electric style. Among some of the more ridiculously delicious things Jesse played for us was his own cover of Guns N’ Roses’ classic reckless-living jam It’s So Easy.
Naturally, the band that GNR nucleus Axl Rose personally dubbed the “Pigeons Of Shit Metal” has taken the song, smacked it up, flipped it, rubbed it down – and the end result is sexy as a motherfucker. The best part? AQ’s hooking you up with the song, courtesy of Jesse himself. Downloads are on hold until we switch to a different host – stay tuned.
Update: Soundcloud seems to have put a stop to the free downloads.
Eagles Of Death Metal are about to embark on their next record, with Queens Of The Stone Age’s Joshua Homme back behind the kit and the knobs. Keep up with that on the official EODM site and Facebook.

AWFUL!!! and i love EODM
I much prefer this over the GnR version.
You made me laugh.
I’ve got to think this is an EODM spoof, that they are making fun of the song.
I have to agree, considering the whole “beef” the lot have between each other.
Not downloadable you morons. IT SAYS IT IS IN HEADLINE!!!!
Where is the download?
Soundcloud cut off the free downloads at a certain point.
Is this a real band? This is completely horrible. Waste of 2 minutes of my life and waste of however much money they spent to record this track.
probably about $0.
Sexy as a motherfucker? Either that was a spoof or EoDM have lost it, I’m guessing the former. As a massive fan of Jessie & co., I’m speaking with no bias when I say that was pretty awful, makes sense if it’s just the latest in the Axl/Eagles beef. Can’t wait for the next album from both parties.
Excellent.
Idk what everyones complaining about, I think its awesome haha. It’s obviously got some out of tune guitars and ad-libbed lyics. Just adds to the Reverend’s charm :)
Love it! So much fun, I didn’t think it was possible for me to like something connected to Guns and Roses.
