Dave Grohl Tells Metallica To Write Kick-Ass New Album
Published Friday, 9th May, 2008 at 4:05 PM
Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters has written an open letter to Metallica asking them not release their new album until they've recorded a "kick-ass" bunch of songs.
The letter was posted on the Blabbermouth website and reads:
"Hey, it's Dave! Remember me? Yeah, I'm the guy that's been listening to your band faithfully since 1983. I bought your first album Kill 'Em All from a mail order catalogue called Under The Rainbow, I think. Actually I can't remember. It was 1983 for Christsakes! But that album changed my life and I've been listening to your albums ever since (even St Anger!)."
"I can't wait to hear the new shit, and no matter what you guys do I'll always be first one at the shop waiting to hear it. I'm sure you'll come out and blow everybody's fuckin' minds, because you're fuckin' METALLICA!"
"Good luck. And don't release it until it's kick-ass. Yours, Dave Grohl."
"P.S. Are you finished recording the drums yet?"
