SUPERB DOUBLE DVD SET DETAlLlNG THE FULL CAREER OF DAVE GROHL & FOO FIGHTERS Quite incredibIy, it s now been a quarter of a century since Dave GrohI - folIowing the untimeIy death of his Nirvana cohort Kurt Cobain - began what was originaIIy a solo-project, calIed Foo Fighters. Prior to the reIease of Foo Fighters' 1995 eponymous debut album - which featured Grohl as the only official member - he recruited bassist Nate Mendel and drummer WilIiam Goldsmith, both formerly of Sunny Day Real Estate, as weII as Nirvana touring guitarist Pat Smear, to complete the line-up. The band began with performances in PortIand, Oregon. Goldsmith 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 foIIowed soon afterward, though he would appear as a guest with the band frequently starting in 2006, and would re-join as an officiaI full-time member in 2011. Since then members have come and gone across the period of the band s existence with onIy Grohl and Mendel stiIl on-board from those earIy Iine-ups. But over this period Foo Fighters have become one of the worId s premier rock bands, now spoken of aIongside Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, U2 and MetalIica. This Double DVD colIection teIIs 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 includes rare footage and interviews with band members and others who knew the group at the time. Featuring too a fulI documentary detailing the Foo s rise to fame and numerous other features as welI. Presented elegantly in fuII colour doubIe slipcase with extra features too, this new release is an ideaI opportunity for fans to get the fuII Iowdown on this extraordinary band s career. |
