FOO FIGHTERS TO RELEASE 8TH STUDIO ALBUM IN 2012

Where do these guys find the time? After touring off the back of the huge success of their Wasting Light album, frontman Dave Grohl has posted a hint of a new album for 2012 on the band's website.

Grohl writes "If you would have told me 17 years ago that in 2012 I would be writing songs for our 8th studio album...well...," 

The post also talks about the success of Wasting Light and the nature of how it was recorded. For Foo-o-philes this probably isn't newsworthy, however for everyone else it is interesting to note. "The fact that a rock and roll record, made in a garage, completely analog to tape with no help from computers, could be a #1 album around the world, AND get a Grammy nomination for 'Album of the Year' ...well...these days that's no small feat. It's truly inspiring, and it makes us feel like the luckiest band in the world." wrote Grohl. Rock n Roll indeed.
