Artist: Foo Fighters

It's easy to feel over-fatigued from award shows right now. They all sort of bump into one another at the same time. Though, given that the Oscars dropped the ball, skipping a handful of solid releases and performances, and that the Grammys still feel like, "one giant industry jerk-off where the ones who pushed the most quantity are rewarded for quality," as Alex Young put it so eloquently last year, who in their right mind cares? Well, America does. If Twitter is any indication, millions of people still tune in and actually gripe about the wins and losses; [...]

Music's biggest night is but days away, and though we know who's showing up and who's performing with whom , the winners of the actual 2012 Grammy Awards remain a mystery. (Okay, so we're pretty sure Adele is going to pick up a few trophies.) After posting our predictions for Best New Artist , Song Of The Year , Record Of The Year and all the Pop and Dance categories, we turn our crystal ball to the biggest award of the night, Album Of The Year. This year's group [...]

La formación original de The Beach Boys - Brian Wilson , Mike Love , Al Jardine , Bruce Johnston y David Marks - actuará por primera vez luego de una pausa de 15 años, junto a Foster The People y Maroon 5 en la ceremonia de entrega de los Grammy Awards 2012 , este domingo 12 de febrero en el Staples Center de Los Angeles.

:: Mogwai announced some U.S. tour dates . :: Foo Fighters will be busy at the Grammys this Sunday. :: Pure Love (Frank Carter's new band) will record with Foo Fighters producer Gil Norton . :: Ben Weinman of Dillinger Escape Plan tried out for Nine Inch Nails back in the day, but he didn't play a single note .

Pure Love , the new project from Frank Carter of Gallows and Jimmy Carroll of the The Hope Conspiracy and the Suicide File are set to begin recording their debut album with Foo Fighters/Pixies producer Gil Norton. The band has completed pre-production and will be recording in Brooklyn, New York. Plans are for the record to drop in late summer via Vertigo Records . So far, only a teaser video has surfaced, with the final seconds of the clip actually hinting at the sound of the new [...]

the internet really is the only place to discover new music. there is no more "music television" (like the old Mtv) and broadcast radio just plain sucks. they play the same old crap in every cookie-cutter format. you won't find many television channels dedicated to music unless you are paying for a satellite subscription service. but music videos are alive and well on the web. i promised to post some more good stuff and here it is. brand new music videos! i hope that readers of this blog take [...]

Parece que las colaboraciones en directo están de moda. Durante 2011 han sido muchos los grupos que girando juntos han sorprendido a los asistentes saltando al escenario al mismo tiempo. En navidades también vimos algún ejemplo de esto, y 2012 pinta igual, sobre todo en ocasiones tan especiales como son las entregas de premios. Hace unos días hablábamos de The Horrors y de Florence And The Machine , los cuales actuarán en los premios NME, y hoy tenemos que hablar de Foo Fighters , ya que la banda actuará con Deadmau5 el [...]

You guys know the Foo Fighters' single, "Rope," was remixed by Deadmau5, right? Well it looks like we're going to see that remix done live at the Grammy awards this year. Dave Grohl and the Foos will perform alongside the Mau5 as well as David Guetta and Lil' Wayne in a tribute to electronic music during the ceremony which takes place on CBS on Sunday, February 12. The performance will take place outside of the Staples Center in Los Angeles. I'm not really a big fan of the remix, which you can [...]

Non è un errore quello contenuto nel titolo. Non solo Mina conosce David Grohl e soci, ma vorrebbe registrare un brano con loro. Andiamo con ordine. Come probabilmente sapete, la Tigre di Cremona ha una rubrica fissa sul magazine Vanity Fair. Un fan le scrive chiedendole con quale artista le piacerebbe duettare nel prossimo disco: Con gli amici ci chiedevamo con quale artista internazionale ti piacerebbe duettare. E così abbiamo stilato una lista di artisti che potrebbero piacerti: Madonna, Lady Gaga, Liza Minelli, Cher, Barbara Straisand, Michael Buble, Joe Cocker, [...]

Filed under: News , RPM , Awards Getty Images | AFP Grammy show producer Ken Ehrlich had considered putting dancing/electronica music into the ceremony in the past, but could never quite figure out how to incorporate the high-energy club feel in front of a sometimes staid audience. He thinks he's figured it out this year. For the first time, the Grammy show will put the spotlight on the genre with a segment [...]

This has some serious face-melt potential written all over it: The Recording Academy has announced today electronic music producer deadmau5 will perform on the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards telecast this Sunday, February 12 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. He will join Foo Fighters, David Guetta, Chris Brown and Lil Wayne for a special performance, [...]

The producers of the Grammys have never been afraid to give the world fascinating, embarrassing pileups, and this year's ceremony could be a doozy. As the Associated Press reports , this Sunday's ceremony will include a vageuly ravey segment in a tent space outside the Staples Center, with 1000 fans. That's where the Foo Fighters and Deadmau5 will team up to perform a live version of Deadmau52s remix of the Foos song "Rope." And it's also where David Guetta will perform with Chris Brown and Lil Wayne. Hopefully, everyone will wear clothes entirely made out of glowsticks. [...]

Dance music didn't have its own category at The Grammys until 2003, and now the little genre that could appears to have been fully embraced by the Recording Academy. The 2012 Grammy Awards will include "a special segment spotlighting dance/electornica music for the first time ever." The lineup for this special performance? Deadmau5, David Guetta, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne and the Foo Fighters. Wait, what? During the awards show, the five artists will perform in a tent outside the Staples Center in front of a crowd of 1,000. Grammy show producer [...]

Photo by Brad Bretz Maybe this is what Justin Vernon was referencing when explaining why Bon Iver won't be performing at the Grammys. As the Associated Press reports, this year's ceremonies will include a special electronic music segment featuring Foo Fighters, Lil Wayne, Deadmau5, Chris Brown, and David Guetta, "all performing in a tent space amid 1,000 fans." According to the AP, Foo Fighters and Deadmau5 will come together for a live remix of the former's song "Rope." Weezy, Brown, and Guetta will then follow with their own joint performance. [...]

If you have some extra money you were planning on donating to the Obama campaign and a fan of intimate shows, then we have one for you. The Foo Fighters are doing their part by playing a show to raise...

Dave Grohl es uno de los músicos más importantes de la escena no sólo porque desde su cerebro de rockero nació Foo Fighters sino también porque formó parte de una de las bandas que hicieron historia (obviamente hablo de Nirvana ). Pero parece que ahora quiere expandir un poco sus horizontes y salir del círculo de confort. Ahora se supo que el multiinstrumentista está no sólo ayudando a escribir una SitCom sino también que trabajará en ella y, además, será el productor ejecutivo . Sí, Grohl debutará como actor . [...]

So, I started recording this one on Friday night. Pretty typical. Then I finished up this evening (It's Saturday night as I type this) and for some reason I got myself worked up about a particular issue. I mean, don't get me wrong. There's not a blue streak of cursing or anything, but I definitely work some stuff out over the course of a couple intros. It'll either be interesting to you or not, but I hope you'll enjoy the music that happens in between! Countdown #89 ***Featuring*** Ben Folds Five The [...]

El frontman de Foo Fighters fue confirmado como productor ejecutivo de una nueva serie sobre un grupo de rock, que saldrá por el canal FX . El programa aún sin nombre, en el que Dave Grohl también mostrará sus dotes de actuación como protagonista, fue creado por la comediante Dana Gould y cuenta los problemas de una banda y cómo buscan la ayuda de un terapeuta para solucionar sus diferencias musicales. Asimismo, trabajarán junto a Grohl y Gould [...]

Guys, I have some really, really surprising, and upsetting, news to share. Maybe you should sit down for this one, 'cause it might be kinda hard to hear. But it's gonna be okay. We'll get through this together. I promise. Alright? Are you sitting down? Okay. Good. Here we go. Courtney Love has not been [...]
