The mashup of the band’s new music comes after Dave Grohl teased they’d just finished a “whole new record” of songs “the other day”.<\/p>\n

Foo Fighters<\/strong><\/a> have offered fans a taste of their new material.<\/p>\n

The Learn To Fly<\/strong> records took to social media this week to share what appears to be a montage of several songs, along with the caption: “This is just a test”.<\/p>\n

Listen to them in action below:<\/p>\n

It’s difficult to tell the songs apart, but the rockers certainly seem to be picking up from where they left of with their Asking For A Friend <\/strong><\/a>single, which sees the band lean into a more heavy sound.<\/p>\n

According to frontman Dave Grohl, the songs should form a new album for the rockers, with him telling the crowds on the Australian leg of their Take Cover stadium tour: \u201cWe\u2019ll be back here sooner than you think.”<\/p>\n

He added at UTAS Stadium in Launceston, Tasmania on 24th January: \u201cI know when we\u2019re coming back! It is before my next birthday, just so you know. […] “And we might have a whole new record of f\u2022\u2022\u2022ing songs that we just finished the other day. I\u00a0dunno!”<\/p>\n

\n

If a new record is released, it will mark the band’s first with new drummer Ilan Rubin<\/strong> and will be their 12th studio album, following Foo Fighters <\/strong>(1995), The Colour and the Shape <\/strong>(1997), There Is Nothing Left To Lose <\/strong>(1999), One by One <\/strong>(2002), In Your Honor <\/strong>(2005), Echoes Silence<\/strong>, Patience & Grace<\/strong> (2007), Wasting Light <\/strong>(2011), Sonic Highways <\/strong>(2014), Concrete and Gold<\/strong> (2017), Medicine at Midnight <\/strong>(2021) and But Here We Are<\/strong> (2023).<\/p>\n

The My Hero<\/strong> rockers most recently joined forces with Taylor Momsen<\/strong> to cover Mariah Carey<\/strong> at the special MusiCares Person of the Year tribute concert.<\/p>\n

Carey revealed in her 2020 memoir that she secretly recorded and co-produced a ’90s alt-rock album with her friend Clarissa Dane <\/strong>titled Someone’s Ugly Daughter<\/strong> <\/em>under the moniker Chick<\/strong>. <\/strong>Though the version that was initially released in 1995 didn’t feature Carey’s voice, the singer had found the version with her vocals by 2020 and last year a snippet of it was even played for her fans.<\/p>\n

Now at the special MusiCares event, which celebrated Carey’s extensive back-catalogue and career, the Foos and Momsen were chosen to highlight Carey’s ‘lost album’ by playing two tracks, Love Is A Scam<\/strong> and Hermit<\/strong>, from the record. <\/p>\n

Watch the rockers play Love Is A Scam <\/strong>below as the R&B icon looked on delighted from the crowd.<\/p>\n

Taking to social media after the performance the Learn To Fly rockers wrote: “THANK YOU @MariahCarey @MusiCares!!! It was an honor performing “Hermit” & “Love Is A Scam” with @taylormomsen.”<\/p>\n
