Homme told MTV News that the band is led by Hughes: "I just sit behind the drums and play rock and roll, which is a great change of pace for me. J. Devil writes everything, every lyric and riff, and he's a fantastic songwriter. He and I go through and arrange them, and I lay down harmonies, but it's really his thing. It's the antithesis of the bloated rock-attitude bullshit I've had to deal with recently." Homme promoted the band and wore one of its t-shirts when appearing on the Lollapalooza tour with his main band Queens of the Stone Age in 2003.

^Harding, Luke; Willsher, Kim (November 14, 2015). "From dinner in Paris to a 'war on happiness' in 15 minutes". The Observer. The group had been on about an hour and they'd just said "We love you Paris" and started singing a song, Kiss the Devil, with the words 'I met the Devil and this is his song' when we heard very clearly some explosions. [...] There was blood everywhere around us [...] A body fell on me [...] My neighbour, a man of around 50, was shot at directly in the head, and bits of his brain and flesh fell on my glasses.
