For 10 years Foo Fighters have been one of the world’s most respected and popular rock bands, and have carved out a place in rock history for themselves. Dave Grohl has become an iconic rock frontman, and the ongoing success of Foo Fighters (and his many side-projects) ensures that he’ll be remembered for much more than having played drums in a grunge band from Seattle. Grohl’s pride and sense of accomplishment about the success of Foo Fighters is apparent when he talks about this new album, and it’s also clear that the band’s awareness of their own history influenced the creation of this album, which is more far-reaching and creatively expansive than anything they’ve done in the past.
