Dave Grohl about the new album of Foo Fighters

Sacado de // From –> http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/ – http://portalternativo.com/

El nuevo disco de Foo Fighters llegará en noviembre aunque aún no tiene título. Hablando con el Hollywood Reporter, Dave Grohl ha explicado que el álbum tendrá 8 temas y será el más largo que haya hecho la banda hasta la fecha.

Como bien sabemos, el disco se graba en ocho estudios distintos siendo el proceso documentado para una nueva serie documental de la HBO.

He tenido que tomar un enfoque cinemático. Es decir no podía componer un jingle de tres minutos y medio y filmarlo para el final de un episodio sobre la historia de la música en Nueva Orleans, ¿sabes? Realmente hemos tenido que subir el nivel. La música es una progresión o una evolución, sin duda, pero es un disco de Foo Fighters.

Reconocerás a Foo Fighters en este disco pero te sorprenderemos. Hacemos cosas que no hemos hecho nunca. Sinceramente hay secciones de canciones que te sorprenderán y hay estribillos que reconocerás como de Foo Fighters a los tres segundos.

No hay duda de que Grohl sigue en racha porque como reconoce, ya tiene la idea del próximo disco de la banda, que será aún más experimental.

Ya sé lo que vamos a hacer para el próximo disco de Foo Fighters y es una locura aún más grande, joder… Se me ocurrió esta idea hace un mes y medio. Los chicos me dijeron, “Tío, tenemos que terminar este primero”. Lo sé, ¡joder!

IN ENGLISH

How does the show connect to the sound of the next Foo Fighters album?

You’ll recognize Foo Fighters in this record but you’ll also be surprised by us. We’re doing things that we’ve never done before. And I want to say that it’s only eight songs but I think it might be our longest record because, as I was writing these songs, I had to take a cinematic approach. Like I couldn’t just write a three-and-a-half-minute long KROQ jingle and film it for the finale of an episode about the history of music in New Orleans, ya know? We really had to step up what we do. The music is a progression or an evolution for sure, but it’s a Foo Fighters record.

So there could there be horns on a Foos record?

There could be horns on a Foos record, absolutely. We’ve never done that before. Honestly, there are sections of songs that will really take you by surprise. And then there are choruses that you’ll just recognize as Foo Fighters within the first three seconds.

How is the album being recorded?

We’ve been dragging two 24-track tape machines around the country because we still love the sound of tape. Some of the places [we recorded] are houses and some are stages and some of them are old rooms so we’d have to build a studio in some of these locations. And that’s easy to do when you just open up the laptop. It’s not easy to do when you’re dragging two 800-pound two inch tape machines across the country, but we’ve done it everywhere we’ve went.

That sounds a little crazy.

I don’t know, man. I mean, I already know what we’re doing for the next Foo Fighters record and that’s even f—in’ crazier!

What the f— are you talkin’ about?

[Laughs] I don’t know. I came up with this idea a month and a half ago. The guys were, like, “Dude, we have to finish this first.” I know, f—!
