Musicians Josh Homme (L) and Jesse Hughes of Eagles of Death Metal perform at the Teragram Ballroom on October 19, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

Members of the band Eagles of Death Metal are talking about the night terrorists stormed their concert in France and killed 89 people.

In the preview clip, band members Jesse Hughes and Josh Homme described to Vice cofounder Shane Smith how their Friday night show earlier this month became part of the worst violence in Paris since World War II.

"Several people hid in our dressing room," Hughes told Vice, saying everyone there was killed "except for a kid who was hiding under my leather jacket."

The attack on November 13 was the culmination of a massive terrorist operation that ended the lives of some 130 people across the French capital.

Most of the people killed were at the Bataclan theatre, where fans gathered to watch the Eagles of Death Metal perform.
