After the demise of Nirvana following
Kurt Cobain's suicide, Dave Grohl returned with a new
band Foo Fighters whose self-titled debut album was
released in 1995.
Buoyed by the success of singles This Is A Call and
Big Me and back up by extensive touring, the album became
a big hit.
In 1997, the band returned with a new drummer and a
new album The Colour and the Shape, which spawned the
hit singles Monkey Wrench, My Hero and Walking After
You, which also appeared on the soundtrack to the X
Files Movie. This album cemented the band's status as
one of the world's most popular rock acts and with the
release of There is Nothing Left to Lose in 1999, 2002's
One By One and most recent album In Your Honour the
band look set to maintain their position for many years
to come.
With an incendiary live show honed on tour with bands
like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Muse and Queens of the Stone
Age, this is a band that must been seen live to be believed.
