Dave Grohl<\/a>\u00a0has revealed that\u00a0Foo Fighters<\/a>\u00a0finished work on their new studio album \u201cthe other day\u201d.<\/p>\n Yesterday (January 24), the band played the opening date of the Australian leg of their \u2018Take Cover\u2019\u00a0tour<\/a>\u00a0at the UTAS Stadium in Launceston, Tasmania. During the encore, they\u00a0played \u2018Exhausted\u2019 from the self-titled 1995 debut album, and as he introduced it, Grohl dropped the news.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ll be back here sooner than you think,\u201d he said to the Aussie crowd. \u201cI know when we\u2019re coming back! It is before my next birthday [January 14, 2027], just so you know.\u201d<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cAnd we might have a whole new record of fucking songs that we just finished the other day. I\u00a0dunno!\u201d<\/p>\n The band\u2019s last studio album was \u2018But Here We Are\u2019 in 2023, their first since the passing of both\u00a0drummer Taylor Hawkins<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Grohl\u2019s mother\u00a0Virginia<\/a>.\u00a0NME\u00a0<\/i>gave the album the full five stars<\/a>, writing:\u00a0\u201c\u2018But Here We Are\u2019 is a beautiful, noisy celebration of brotherhood and a stark, painful exploration of loss. It is messy, gut-wrenching,\u00a0ambitious\u00a0and gorgeous, as the remaining members of Foo Fighters push themselves to their limits and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n Last year,\u00a0they celebrated their 30th\u00a0anniversary as a band with the single \u2018Today\u2019s Song\u2019<\/a>, and followed that up with\u00a0another new track \u2018Asking For A Friend\u2019<\/a>.\u00a0In October, they also teased at a new era of music\u00a0with a blistering teaser and the phrase, \u201cabout to take flight\u2026\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/blockquote>\n
