Speaking to NME, Josh Homme’s Eagles Of Death Metal bandmate added that the material he’s heard from the follow-up to 2007’s ‘Era Vulgaris’ is “really cool”. Hughes said: “The shit I’ve heard from the new Queens album is so badass. It’s really cool. It’s the kinda shit that makes John Holmes [legendary porn star] have a bigger dick and he’s dead, so that’s pretty rad.”
