After the most tumultuous year of their career, Foo Fighters have come to terms with the idea of releasing new music and we couldn't be happier. After teasing white-themed cover-art over the last few days, the rock legends have finally shared their big secret.
Overnight, Foo Fighters have announced new record But Here We Are, out June 2. It will be the first album without late-drummer Taylor Hawkins. It's so amazing to see a new era for the band after seeing the emotion of Hawkins' life at the celebration shows late last year.
To get the energy going for the new album, Foo Fighters are now streaming lead single 'Rescued'. In terms of who's taking the drum-parts, we're not sure. It could even be material from before Hawkins passed - this isn't quite clear yet.
Their first 2023 track is highly visceral. It's hard not to get goosebumps hearing Dave Grohl's lyrics "I'm just waiting to be rescued, bring me back to life". The single's energy meets the ultimate perfection with a rocky stadium song and a measured rhythm to step back into the space carefully.
