      He played every instrument on the self-titled debut album, but not for The Colour and the Shape, which this is from. The band's lineup was still very much in flux at this point in Foo Fighters history, though, so that is Dave Grohl drumming on the album even though he didn't play drums in their live shows.

    That is Dave's natural voice - no walkie talkie. AND he is normally singing, and playing the guitar and chewing gum. All this from the drummer of Nirvana. He is an anomaly, and only his spirit surpasses his musical abilities. Not only one of my favorite musicians, but one of the most humble people to ever grace music. The world is a better place because of the Fighters of Foo.

Sadly, without Taylor Hawkings (the drummer RIP.) I’m sure you’ll have so many favorites. I hope you go down the rabbit hole. Dave Grohl also wrote a great book “The Storyteller, tales of life & music!” After you explore more of the FooFighters and fall in love with Hawkings…I suggest watching the live tribute to him where his 16 year old son Shane performs “My Hero”…you’ve got to get to know the band some first though. Grohl is supposedly one of the nicest guys. He’s down to earth and volunteers and gives to charities. You’ve discovered a real gem. Have fun.

    The two live performances of "My Hero", the Howard Stern Show in 1999 and the Taylor Hawkins tribute where Taylor's son Shane plays the drums in his father's stead after Taylor's untimely death. Absolute must see's. Both wonderfully moving for completely different reasons.

    The videos are mini movies!! Hilarious in many forms, and they actually made a horror movie before their drummer passed away. The Taylor Hawkins tribute concert is outstanding-especially the My Hero with Taylor’s son, Shane, playing the drums for his dad

    The Foo Fighters are most likely the best rock band still in their prime. This is off their 3rd album, David Grohl (former drummer from Nirvana) plays guitar and lead vocal as well as writer of most of the music. The Pretender is a great cut. They also have great videos, one of my favorites is Learn to Fly, w/Jack Black.

    Dave Grohl (the drummer) had started writing a lot of these song while he was still in Nirvana. After Kurt died he needed an outlet and new project so took those songs and started the Foo Fighters, but on this first record he did it alone, so he sang and played every instrument. An absolutely incredible accomplishment and album. I would consider this album post-grunge rock.

    Yep. You’re right. This one is one of their hits. Check out Hero… IMHO, that’s the best song Dave has ever written. The lead singer is Dave Grohl. He was the drummer for Nirvana. The drummer of the Foo Fighters, Taylor Hawkins, who is Dave Grohl‘s best friend, used to be a drummer for Alanis Morissette. Taylor Hawkins passed away a little over a year ago while they were on tour. It was devastating for the fans, but especially for the band and Dave. Please do some more Foo Fighters. They have an extensive library that I believe you would enjoy.

    A "foo fighter" was a secret German weapon during WWII that Allied pilots described as being balls of light that wizzed around the sky at very fast speeds making impossible turns and basically defying the laws of physics. These foo fighters basically harassed and scared off the Allied pilots, but never did any real harm to the aircraft or their inhabitants. Please check out "The Pretender" and "Best of You" next.
