Eagles of Death Metal found themselves at a poignant moment in their career around the time of the live recording with U2 at the Bataclan in Paris on November 14, 2015. The band had released their album "Zipper Down" just a month earlier, on October 2, 2015. This performance marked the band's first public appearance following the tragic terrorist attacks that targeted their concert at the very same venue just days prior, resulting in significant loss of life and a profound impact on their community. The collaboration with U2 during this emotionally charged event highlighted not only their resilience but also the solidarity of artists in times of crisis. It became a symbol of hope and unity, showcasing how music can intertwine with healing and remembrance.
