Dave Grohl confesses he's been 'reading lips for like 20 YEARS' due to hearing loss

Liam Gallagher has responded to Dave Grohl saying he’s one of “the last remaining rock stars” on social media.Earlier this month, Gallagher released ‘Everything’s Electric’, the first single to be taken from his upcoming new solo album ‘C’MON YOU KNOW’, which is set for release on May 27 and is the follow-up to 2019’s ‘Why Me? Why Not.’.The song was co-written by Foo Fighters frontman Grohl, who also plays drums on the track, and its producer Greg Kurstin.In a new interview with NME, Grohl, who was promoting Foo Fighters’ new gross-out splatter horror Studio 666, praised Gallagher and talked about how the track came about.“Unfortunately we didn’t do it in person but I love being in the same room as Liam,” he said of the collaboration. “It’s like putting a fucking quarter in a juke box and just turning it up with that guy. It’s fucking great. Obviously, he’s an amazing singer and he’s a fucking rock star.

Dave Grohl has praised Billie Eilish for starting what he calls a rock’n’roll “revolution”.The Foo Fighters frontman said in a new interview that rock music is a “different game” now for younger acts but is certainly still relevant, after a line from his band’s new horror-comedy film Studio 666 touched upon the “rock is dead” trope.The Independent quoted a line that Jeff Garlin’s character says in the movie about the current music climate (“Rock’n’roll, it hasn’t been relevant for a long time”).“Well, I think you have to define ‘relevant’,” Grohl responded. “It’s hard for us to say that rock’n’roll is in a rough patch, because we get up on stage and there’ll be thousands of people fucking going bananas and singing along to our songs.”But he acknowledged that there’s been a shift in how rock music is received.

Dave Grohl has said he would never go solo because he “actually like[s] being in the Foo Fighters“.The frontman is currently busy promoting the band’s new gross-out splatter horror Studio 666, and in a recent interview about the film he talked about never wanting to split from the Foos to go it alone.Describing the new movie, he told Sky News: “The premise is based on a lot of really hilarious rock and roll cliches and stereotypes, right? The lead singer that wants to go solo and is at a creative war with his own band – and some lead singers do exactly that.”He then added: “That’s something I would never wish to do because I actually like being in the Foo Fighters.”Grohl formed Foo Fighters in 1994 as a one-man project following the dissolution of his former band Nirvana. The band have won 12 Grammy Awards, including Best Rock Album four times, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year.Meanwhile, Grohl told NME in a new interview that he thinks Liam Gallagher is “one of the last remaining rock stars”.Earlier this month, Gallagher released ‘Everything’s Electric’, the first single to be taken from his upcoming new solo album ‘C’MON YOU KNOW’, which is set for release on May 27 and is the follow-up to 2019’s ‘Why Me?

Dave Grohl has made his debut appearance on the hugely popular YouTube interview series Hot Ones.The Foo Fighters frontman made the appearance on the First We Feast show, which sees celebrity guests answering questions while eating increasingly hot chicken wings, to promote the band’s new movie Studio 666, which is set to be released tomorrow (February 25).During the interview, which you can watch in full below, Grohl was told that he was one of the “most-requested Hot Ones guests of all-time” and responded by regularly taking shots with host Sean Evans throughout the wide-ranging interview.The former Nirvana drummer spoke highly of Lorde, Thundercat and Billie Eilish‘s respective appearances on Hot Ones, while he also recalled how he was once electrocuted on stage after jumping into a pool mid-performance.Grohl reserved particular praise for Alabama Shakes during his Hot Ones interview, despite recalling how they beat Foo Fighters to the Grammy for Best Rock Performance in 2016.Grohl also spoke about his ambition to one day play live with AC/DC (“the only thing I have left to do in my life is jam with AC/DC”) and was asked about his long-standing fascination with UFOs.“From an early age, I was super-into UFOs,” he explained. “I read this book, Above Top Secret, and in that I saw the term ‘Foo Fighters’.

Dave Grohl failed to name Foo Fighters songs during a game on The Late Late Show With James Corden this week.The musician, who was joined on the talk show sofa by actress Hilary Duff, was tasked with guessing which songs the show’s host Corden was attempting to play on keyboard – despite him not knowing how to play the piano.A visibly frustrated Grohl failed to to guess a single song, shouting at one point: “Just play the fucking song, man!” You can watch his attempt at ‘James That Tune’ in the clip below.The first song ended up being Foo Fighters’ ‘Learn to Fly’, while the second tune was ‘My Hero’ – both of which were unrecognisable from their original compositions.Grohl was on the programme to discuss Foo Fighters’ new horror-comedy film Studio 666, which is released in cinemas tomorrow (February 25).The movie follows the bandmembers as they move into a mansion in Encino, California that is “steeped in grisly rock and roll history” to record a new album. Once they’ve arrived, though, Grohl “finds himself grappling with supernatural forces that threaten both the completion of the album and the lives of the band”.

Dave Grohl wasn’t impressed with James Corden’s “Late Late Show” game Wednesday.

Dave Grohl has paid tribute to Mark Lanegan who died earlier this week, remembering him as an artist that could expertly express emotion through singing.The Foo Fighters frontman said that Lanegan, whom he joined in being a sometime member of Queens Of The Stone Age, was “so pure and so real” in his artistry.“If he sang about pain, you believed it and if he sang about love, you believed it,” Grohl told The Independent about the late singer.“If you know anything about his story, or have read any of his books, you’ll understand why he sang what he did and why he sang it the way that he did. There was nobody like him.

The price you pay to be a rock star!

Dave Grohl is opening up about the hearing loss he's suffered after years of being a rock star.During a conversation on SirusXM's , the Foo Fighters frontman revealed that he has a hearing impairment, but has not had his ears checked out by a doctor.“I know what they’re going to say,” Grohl shared. “’You have hearing damage (Tinnitus) in your left ear, more so than your right ear.’’ The 52-year-old rocker admitted that while he’s on stage, he doesn’t use ear monitors during concerts, because he believes they don’t allow him to fully hear what’s happening around him during the set. However, Grohl credits having the same sound technician for 31 years to helping him pull off each show seamlessly, despite the circumstances.

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl, 53, has seemingly rocked too hard. He confessed that he’s basically “deaf” and has been for the past 20 years. “I haven’t had them tested in a long time — I mean, I know what they’re gonna say,” he said of his ears on The Howard Stern Show. “You have hearing damage tinnitus in your left ear, more so than your right ear.”

Dave Grohl is getting candid about his hearing loss.

Dave Grohl has said that years of performing live without hearing protection have left him with tinnitus and hearing loss. But if you think he’s going to change anything, you’ve got another thing coming.

Dave Grohl has been dealing with hearing loss for a long time.

Dave Grohl has discussed his hearing loss, saying that he’s been lip-reading for years and that COVID mask-wearing has caused further issues for him over the past two years.The Foo Fighters frontman explained in a new interview how it impacts his life, highlighting that it somehow hasn’t affected his ability to tune into the specifics of recording music.“If you were sitting next to me right here at dinner, I wouldn’t understand a fucking word you were saying to me the whole fucking time,” Grohl told The Howard Stern Show. “There’s no way. In a crowded restaurant – that’s the worst.”He added: “The worst thing about this pandemic shit is people wearing masks.

“Studio 666” — their new horror comedy that opens in theaters on Friday — Dave Grohl’s gang took unlikely inspiration from another band: Spinal Tap.“In our way, it was like this ultimate gore ‘Spinal Tap,’” Grohl told The Post, referencing the fictional band’s 1984 mockumentary “This Is Spinal Tap.” “It was one of the most inspiring rock ’n’ roll films because it made everyone take a look at themselves and think, ‘Oh s—t, I hope I’m not like that.’ And so it was kind of a manual of what not to do — or else you might become Spinal Tap.”But unlike the pretentious, fictitious band Spinal Tap, Foo Fighters have proven to be the real deal — and then some — with hits such as “Learn to Fly,” “Best of You” and, of course, “Times Like These.” The 11-time Grammy-winning group was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame last October in its first year of eligibility.After the Foo Fighters found themselves enshrined in the pantheon of rock immortals, “Studio 666” — in which the band plays and pokes fun at themselves during some haunted sessions — might seem like a strange choice for an encore. But the project developed organically while the Foos were recording their 10th studio album, 2021’s “Medicine at Midnight,” at a mansion in the Encino neighborhood of Los Angeles.“It is something I never wanted to or expected to do.

Dave Grohl's pitch for was succinct but effective, because the rest of the Foo Fighters immediately jumped at the «wild» idea.ET's Matt Cohen caught up with Grohl and the rest of his bandmates at TCL Theater in Los Angeles for the premiere of their horror comedy, which hits theaters Feb. 25. When asked what his pitch to the guys was for this film, Grohl didn't skip a beat and laid out exactly what he envisioned.«Food Fighters need to make a record,» Grohl's pitch begins.

Dave Grohl has said that he hopes to release a full album of new thrash metal music by next week.The Foo Fighters frontman was speaking ahead of the release of the band’s supernatural horror comedy film Studio 666, which is set to arrive on February 25.Earlier this week a track by the fictional band Dream Widow, which features on the Studio 666 soundtrack, was released, and Grohl has now revealed that more new music is on the way.Speaking on The Howard Stern Show this week, Grohl explained more about how the film’s soundtrack connects with its premise, which sees the Foos setting up to record their tenth album in a haunted mansion.“I wind up finding this creepy basement. And I go into the basement, I find this tape by a band [Dream Widow] from 25 years ago that recorded there,” Grohl said.

Dave Grohl hasn’t sat still for more than 30 years, so it’s not much of a surprise that he’s ended up creating and starring in his own feature film.

Foo Fighters performed a selection of rarities and deep cuts during a special VR show over the weekend.The band pre-recorded the gig at the Los Angeles Convention Center. It was then streamed online on Sunday evening (February 13) following the Super Bowl as an “immersive 180-degree VR concert”, which was broadcast on the band’s Facebook and Instagram pages (AKA the ‘Metaverse’) and the Horizon Venues app.While the livestream encountered technical issues on the night, the gig itself saw the Foos play a 10-song gig which included a small number of songs that don’t usually feature in the band’s set lists.This included ‘T-Shirt’, the opening track from 2017’s ‘Concrete and Gold’ which received its live debut on Sunday, and ‘Walking After You’, which was performed by the Foos live for the first time since 2006.A post shared by Foo Fighters (@foofighters)The gig concluded with a rendition of ‘Home’, which was played live by the band for the first time since 2007.
