Death by Sexy


Death by Sexy is the second album by the American rock group Eagles of Death Metal. It was rumoured to be released in summer 2005 but was pushed back to April 11, 2006.
The album cover of Death by Sexy has elements similar to the covers of The Rolling Stones' 1971 album Sticky Fingers, Mötley Crüe's 1981 album Too Fast For Love, and Loverboy's 1981 album Get Lucky. The track "Don't Speak " was featured in a 2008 Nike commercial directed by Guy Ritchie, which included the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimović, Cristiano Ronaldo, Cesc Fàbregas, and Ronaldinho and is also featured in the 2006 video game

Critical reception

In a similar vein to its predecessor, Death by Sexy received mostly positive reviews, earning a rating of 72 out of 100 on Metacritic. Uncut and Allmusic both gave the album four stars out of five, with the latter calling it "thoroughly trashy fun". Rolling Stone agreed, stating that at the album's high points "the sexy propulsion could light up a bar, or a strip club" though conceded that the band's debut was "slightly hookier". Some reviewers weren't so enthusiastic, with The Guardian likening the band "to how Electric Six would sound if they were drinking tepid water instead of vodka" and giving the album two stars.
