Garbage’s Shirley Manson has called Dave Grohl “the most incredible expanse of joy”.In a new conversation with NME, the frontwoman opened up about her experiences working with Grohl, who contributed drums to the track ‘Bad Boyfriend’ from their fourth studio album ‘Bleed Like Me’ when it was initially recorded in 2004.

The album’s 20th anniversary reissue was released earlier this month.Speaking to NME, Manson said: “Dave Grohl is the most incredible expanse of joy that you can hope to meet as a human being.

Him stepping in and playing on ‘Bad Boyfriend’ was a big boost to the male members of the band.“He was a really good friend with Butch [Vig, drummer], of course, through their work with Nirvana [Vig produced ‘Nevermind’],” she continued. “I had very little to do with it, but I had very little to do with the members of the band at this point.

That’s the eternal loneliness of being the only female in a male band, but that’s a whole other story.“I love Dave Grohl with a passion, as does the world.
