Dave Grohl: 'Grunge never went away'



Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl has claimed grunge music has never died in a Reddit fan AMA (Ask Me Anything).

The former Nirvana drummer was asked by a fan, who goes by the name of ConumdrumSteve on the community-based website, if "Grunge will ever make a comeback?"

To which Grohl replied: If you mean loud ass guitars, loud ass drums, and screaming ass vocals? That never went away ding dong.
The Foo's front man took part in the Reddit fan AMA to promote his documentary on the legendary Sound City recording studios. The movie is available to watch now at soundcitymovie.com.

The film's soundtrack will come out on March 11, and will include the Paul McCartney-featuring track, 'Cut Me Some Slack' as well as many more from Grohl's Sound City Players band, which features members of Nirvana and Foo Fighters as well as Stevie Nicks, John Fogerty, Rick Springfield, Fear's Lee Ving, Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen, Brad Wilk Of Rage Against The Machine, Alain Johannes, Chris Goss.

Dave, I love you, but that picture will haunt my dreams tonight.

You've been a real bitch this past month Dave. A real fucking cunt.
lucciolaa 11th-Feb-2013 05:36 pm (UTC)
Yeah, I hate listening to him talk about other people's music. He's such a self-important twat.

So it's not just me?! I've enjoyed Dave since the 90's, but he's been really annoying lately.

well i know that's not what he's playing. everything i've heard from the foo fighters for the last 10 years or so has been generic dad rock. so depressing

Does he still think that he's the patron saint of rock music?

Hopefully he's aware that the Foo Fighters blow ass today and there's plenty of rock bands with loud guitars, loud drums, and screaming vocals that he has nothing to do with.

okay so where is it? because i sure as hell don't consider the foo fighters to be grunge LOL or anything else for that matter other than shit

I guess it never went away in the sense that that music still exists and I people continue to make it

It's just that no one cares.

yup. this very popular artist from a very tiny sub-genre had a fit on his blog about how fans don't buy (his) albums but illegally download nowadays and if you were a real fan...

very very few genres of music die off but usually when the heyday is over, it's over and musicians need to get with the times, especially if their old albums are hard to find or out of print.

yep

Grunge was really fun in middle school/high school. You could looks like shit and be comfortable and people would think you are stylish. I miss it.

Who's that random guy behind Cobain?
aujourlejour 11th-Feb-2013 07:04 pm (UTC)
i think it's one of the guys from the melvins (iirc) who used to play with them from time to time, the one who performed at their unplugged session and such.
liberatores 11th-Feb-2013 05:42 pm (UTC)
i bet he runs a soft grunge tumblr
robotpotatoes 11th-Feb-2013 05:42 pm (UTC)
NOPE. grunge is dead and dated - it will always be a 90's thing.
blackkdiamond 11th-Feb-2013 06:31 pm (UTC)
no.
sugarcrawler 11th-Feb-2013 10:19 pm (UTC)
i honestly do not know what makes grunge sound different from other alternative rock genres other than the fact it happened in the 90s..(like you can tell if song sounds punk or metal..but the only way to know if its grunge is if it came from a 90s grunge band.)
