Foos To Record In Space?
We suspect Dave Grohl may have been joking on this one
There's been reports in recent weeks that the Foos had already started thinking about a follow-up to the multi-award winning Wasting Light, and Dave Grohl has some ideas about what they want to do.
"We have an idea. It’s kind of a really big idea,” he told MTV News. "We’re going to record it in space. To tape. An analog moonshot.”
In the meantime, Grohl has his Sound City movie on the way.
"We released a teaser trailer ... there may be an album that accompanies it,” Grohl said. "I recorded a lot of songs with a lot of people in the past couple months. There used to be a recording studio called Sound City that was in the San Fernando Valley. Nirvana recorded there in 1991. It was this really beautiful dump in the middle of a warehouse district. A lot of great records were made there.
"Fleetwood Mac made records there; Neil Young made records there. Tom Petty, Cheap Trick, Dio, Ratt, Pat Benatar, Rick Springfield, Rage Against the Machine did their first record there, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica ... Evel Knievel, Charles Manson recorded there, Barry White, Johnny Cash,” he continued. "So I interview them to tell the history of the studio, but then I invite them back to record with me, and we make a record.”
