Foo Fighters main man Dave Grohl has spoken with Kerrang! magazine about the band's upcoming 10th studio LP, saying, “We just finished another f**king record, and I'm so f**king proud of it. It's unlike anything we've ever done.”
Grohl added, “I'm f**king excited for people to hear it and I can't wait to jump on that f**king stage to play it. There are choruses on this record that 50 f**king thousand people are gonna sing, and it's gonna bring everyone's f**king hearts together in that moment. And that's what it’s all about.”
Grohl told us a while back that the most important thing is keeping the human element in music: “The most important thing is that there's a human element to what you're doing. With digital technology, it became a lot easier to manipulate these performances. I think what that does is it really takes a lot of personality out of music, you know. Like John Lennon didn't really sing perfectly in key and John Bonham didn't really play perfectly in time, but they just — it felt great.”
The new album will follow up 2017's Concrete And Gold and will be part of Foo Fighters' 25th anniversary celebration. The band will kick off a tour next month that takes them along the same route the Foos played on their first trek back in 1995. The band will also headline D.C. Jam in the nation's capital on July 4th — 25 years to the day that the Foos' self-titled debut album came out.
