El batería de Foo Fighters, Taylor Hawkins, ha hablado con el New Musical Express de la ayuda que ha tenido de Dave Grohl para el debut de su proyecto paralelo The Birds Of Satan, cuyo primer disco llegará el 14 de abril.
Dave solo estuvo dos días pero llegó y le dije, “Quiero componer una canción que sea un fandango prog-rock con partes de locura por todos lados. Quiero que suene como una mezcla de “March of the Black Queen” de Queen y “Station To Station” de Bowie y el puto “Band On The Run” y “Three Days” de Janes Addiction. Por qué, ¿a quien le importa? Y lo hicimos en un día.
Asimismo explica que Grohl ha ayudado a componer los temas “The Ballad Of The Birds Of Satan”, “Raspberries” y “Wait Til Tomorrow” mientras que su también compañero de Foo Fighters, Pat Smear, le echó una mano con “Too Far Gone To See”.
Según había admitido Hawkins en entrevistas anteriores, el disco fue grabado en menos de una semana.
El tracklist del disco será el siguiente:
‘The Ballad Of The Birds Of Satan’
‘Thanks For The Line’
‘Pieces Of The Puzzle’
‘Raspberries’
‘Nothing At All’
‘Wait Til Tomorrow’
‘Too Far Gone To See’
