Dave Grohl's Sound City Revealed 2012-12-15 by Jom | 47 Comments | Dave Grohl's Sound City documentary, slated for a February 2013 release, will have a complementing soundtrack. The film's aim is "to demonstrate the human element of creating and recording music", with a number of significant recording artists writing and recording "brand new original songs on the spot".
In other words (NOTE: the following statement is in half-excitement, half-jest), Grohl wanted to make a record with some people and it's allegedly going to be THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST

Looking forward to "Cut Me Some Slack."
| | | Excited.
| | | That documentary's gonna be good.
| | | I'm looking forward to Centipede, Heaven And All and Cut Me Some Slack. These collaborations will be interesting and hopefully great. Dave Grohl still is the coolest guy in the world.
| | | Will be good.
| | | the collaborations on this are ridiculous
| | | sounds pretty cool
| | | The McCartney/Nirvana collab now makes more sense
| | | "“Mantra”
Dave Grohl, Joshua Homme, Trent Reznor"
Holy shit!
| | | I'm so happy now that I've read this amazing news article. < 3
| | | I don't care for most of these artists so meh, but it'll probably be decent
| | | How can you not care about these artists? :S
| | | Exactly :-( I mean, sure, I don't care THAT much for Corey Taylor, but other than that..
| | | I said most, I do like a few, but I don't really listen to anything from anyone else so meh
| | | paul is cool but the rest...
| | | Trent Reznor is great, guys.
| | | And Josh Homme is one of my all time biggest inspirations in music, so yeah.
| | | Sounds intelligent enough to watch.

Trent Reznor is great, guys.
Trent, Paul, Nate Mendel, Stevie Nicks, and Brad and Tim(from RATM) are cool, the rest... meh
Oh and Corey Taylor? lol
| | | corey taylor has a great voice even if his bands aren't so good
| | | I love this kind of documentaries.
| | | jesus this is AMAZING news
| | | looks amazing
| | | I actually laughed out loud at "THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST [ad infinitum]" for some reason. Great news, thanks Jom.
| | | THE BEST
JEST
EVER
| | | this sounds like it will be awesome. Sold for the last song listed
| | | As close to the followup to Probot as I'm gonna get, and I love it.
| | | damn this sounds pretty sweet
| | | So it's like a pop/rock version of Probot?
| | | raw sauce
| | | Dave Grohl's no Pretender, he's My Hero - I wonder if this documentary will be his Breakout into filmmaking. Good Grief, I'll be stuck at Home watching this one and over and over (and out). Looks like the one film I've been waiting All My Life for. I bet when this comes out Next Year, they'll be building Statues of him, surely with a Halo around his head. But, Honestly, if you're Up In Arms about this statements; if Big Me has set you on Overdrive, I don't care, go to Hell. In Times Like These, I'm Tired of You. All of these puns are making me Exhausted. This is a film I'll Stick Around for. Over and Out.
| | | This is fucking incredible
| | | "
First off, His name is Corey Taylor. Secondly, that was a disgustingly idiotic comment. Finally, you're a jackass."
You need to learn to take the internet less seriously. Also you are obviously new to sputnik as you aren't aware of Acad's humour.
| | | oh yeah, well i say fuck dave grohl.
| | | and I say fuck YEAH DAVE GROHL
| | | agreed
| | | haha nicely played.
| | | Sounds pretty legit. Pretty decent line-up of Artists here.
