In 2003, Juliette formed Juliette and the Licks, a five piece outfit whose guitarists, Todd Morse (from NY hardcore act H20) and Kemble Walters would prove a constant in its fledgling, revolving line-ups. Deciding that the live arena would be the best way for the band to discover its identity, J&TL hit the road appearing on the Vans Warped Tour in 2004 as well as opening for acts as diverse as Turbonegro, Social Distortion and Courtney Love. The following year brought with it a hurricane of activity that saw the band’s first studio releases (Like a Bolt of Lightening EP in February, swiftly followed by self-produced debut full-length, You’re Speaking My Language in May), while a relentless touring schedule saw them play to over 500,000 people in over 20 countries. The Licks crossed paths with many during their International travels and as luck would have it, one such encounter played an integral role in shaping their sophomore album. The end of 2005 came with the departure of Licks’ drummer and in stepped Foo Fighters frontman and former Nirvana drummer, Dave Grohl. Originally brought in to play on demos, Grohl extended his stay for the album while they recorded at his 606 Studio in California.

Adding a bit of Hollywood glamour to their ramshackle punk rock, Juliette And The Licks retain an air of credibility as they deconstruct the contrived notions of guitar music and personal identity. 'Got Love To Kill' is the second single from their album You're Speaking My Language, with this enhanced version featuring the title track backed with 'I Never Got To Tell You' (XFM Session), 'Got Love To Kill' Virgin Session and the video.

Second full-length album (and third release overall) from this Alterna-Rock band fronted by actress Juliette Lewis. Since the release of their debut album, the Licks have established an unshakable presence as a live act, then their first stable line-up brought with it the chance to develop as a song writing unit. Writing as they toured, the band concentrated on capturing their stage energy to provide a definitive Licks sound for the next record. Unfortunately, the departure of their drummer at the end of the year left them drummerless. Luckily, the road had also seen their paths cross with someone who would play an instrumental role in the most important chapter of their career - Foo Fighters front man and former Nirvana drummer, Dave Grohl. Originally brought in to play on demos the band recorded at his 606 Studio in California, Grohl extended his stay for the album. Features 10 tracks including the single 'Hot Kiss'. Hassle. 2006.
