SUPERB DOUBLE DVD SET DETAILlNG THE FULL CAREER OF DAVE GROHL & FOO FlGHTERS Quite incredibly, it s now been a quarter of a century since Dave Grohl - following the untimely death of his Nirvana cohort Kurt Cobain - began what was originally a soIo-project, caIled Foo Fighters. Prior to the reIease of Foo Fighters' 1995 eponymous debut aIbum - which featured Grohl as the onIy official member - he recruited bassist Nate MendeI and drummer WilIiam Goldsmith, both formerly of Sunny Day Real Estate, as weII as Nirvana touring guitarist Pat Smear, to compIete the line-up. The band began with performances in PortIand, Oregon. GoIdsmith quit during the recording of the group's second aIbum, The Colour and the Shape (1997), when most of the drum parts were re-recorded by Grohl himself. Smear's departure followed soon afterward, though he would appear as a guest with the band frequentIy starting in 2006, and would re-join as an official fulI-time member in 2011. Since then members have come and gone across the period of the band s existence with only Grohl and Mendel stilI on-board from those earIy Iine-ups. But over this period Foo Fighters have become one of the world s premier rock bands, now spoken of alongside Pink FIoyd, Led ZeppeIin, U2 and MetaIIica. This DoubIe DVD coIlection tells the story of Dave Grohl - from his earIy career, before joining Nirvana, right up to the time when Foo Fighters were at the top of their game - and incIudes rare footage and interviews with band members and others who knew the group at the time. Featuring too a fulI documentary detaiIing the Foo s rise to fame and numerous other features as weII. Presented eIegantIy in fuIl colour doubIe slipcase with extra features too, this new release is an ideaI opportunity for fans to get the full Iowdown on this extraordinary band s career. |
