(Harriet Gibsone’s and Mahita Gajanan’s article appeared in the Guardian, 11/18.)

Eagles Of Death Metal have said they are “still trying to come to terms” with the Paris terror attacks, in a new statement posted on the California rock group’s Facebook page.

The band, who were onstage at the Bataclan concert venue when the attack began, paid tribute to those who died, and praised French law enforcement agencies and those who helped “during this unimaginable ordeal”.

“Although bonded in grief with the victims, the fans, the families, the citizens of Paris, and all those affected by terrorism, we are proud to stand together, with our new family, now united by a common goal of love and compassion,” the band said.
