Making of Something From Nothing - Foo Fighters

From Sonic Highways

[@zekie106]

Damn. I remember watching this years ago and being so inspired to play the drums... RIP to Taylor Hawkins. Great drummer. Gone too soon. RIP legend 🤘

[@ChannelEleven59]

Killed by Dave Growl.

[@gavinmckillop8006]

Dave can’t keep his eyes of Taylor even for just a second. A beautiful bromance.

[@coyotehollowband]

Talk about underrated? Chris Shiflett. That dude is a beast.

[@YonyGut1MoviesandVideogames]

let's talk about Pat also! Awesome guitar player! :D

For my taste, this was his best drumtrack , powerfull, energy to the roof, a master at is game, damn, so hard to watch. RIP Taylor, can only imagine Dave sadness....

[@JLunaarS]

The bass is like the gluten in the bread and the bread is the song so that means like the studio is the oven and we're cooking it up but it ain't gonna taste right unless the bread has gluten in it We ain't makin no gluten free bread You know what I say No gluten, no gooten Dave Grohl, 2014

[@markorollo.]

it is on my bucket list to be in a recording studio witnessing a band recording stuff, wish it couldve been the foo fighters :(, RIP Taylor.

[@goudagirl6095]

funny, one of my bucket list items used to be "watching a fashion show in person." But that has since been replaced with what you said (you can add to the Foos: AIC, QOTSA, Them Crooked Vultures, Screaming Trees). 👍

[@jamezason]

I thought I was the only one with a bucket list item like this. Good luck with yours!

Holy shit, why didn't Dave keep in that riff at 15:04? As Taylor said, 'THAT SHIT WAS *FUCKIN' RAD!!!!*

Taylor Hawkins is so underrated

[@Anthony-iu6xr]

You think so? I've heard he's one of the best technically sound drummers around though?

[@BigHumz155]

+Manuel Molina jr You heard right, he's a mind-blowing drummer.

[@Anthony-iu6xr]

Yea I know I have like all their albums and saw them in Anaheim last month haha. But I've never heard he was underrated I'd always heard great things about him

[@JeeniusGaming]

+Manuel Molina jr i guess you confused underrated with overrated

[@luchadorito]

Luis Fernando Barbosa Pérez Thats a very kind offer thank you :) However i have been through this and couldn't find a place in my homeland of Hungary where I can order an embroided patch for a sensible price and ordering it from the USA and shipping it is a bit too pricy

Actually, I live in Colombia. Besides, I could send you the digital file to print.

[@StLProgressive]

I love this behind the scenes stuff. Some of this was in the show, but obv not all. Hearing them play thru the song without the vocals was really cool.

[@ArthurDunger]

Great insight into the band without them referencing cameras too much. The way they kick into the Schifflett solo via plug interference is bloody awesome. Totally different feel but almost same technique as opening of 1st song, 1st album -this is a call...

[@indre_7077]

This is sick... and that riff before the end so chaotic love this band.

Rick Nielsen's hat alone is worth a like. Hilarious.

[@shaneinsco]

Mark Matsko don't forget him on his own shirt

[@The90sGamingGuy]

I've been a Foo Fighters fan since hearing Ever Long and My Hero in 1998 on radio. I saw some of this and the main program of this on HBO in 2015 and bought the blu-ray set and really enjoyed all the content. I also own the vinyl record and played it for my dad and he liked some of the songs off it. Was very sad when i heard the news that Taylor passed away he was a talented drummer and huge part of the Foo's.

[@TananJess]

Me too that's some of what I always listened to before football games then ironically that song alone made the movie varsity blues a must watch for me.

[@XxTheJimsterxX]

15:05 is fucking hysterical and Taylor’s face shows you how badly Hawkins wants the band to sound like Metallica 😂

[@joshajcip]

Lol yeah, I love Dave’s songwriting but a few thrashy riffs wouldn’t hurt in my opinion

[@420Bassist]

"No gluten, no gootin" Thanks Dave, I'm gonna say that all the time now when necessary

[@stevenlong9101]

I'm so into the foos it's crazy just watching them is fun and inspiring

[@chris.fitzgerald]

As cool as all the Foos are, the coolest guy in the room might be Butch Vig.

[@romansauce17]

The bass is the gluten, and the song is the bread, so the studio is the oven, and we cooking a song up in here. we aint gonna have gluten free bread.

This is a great insight of behind the scenes on how the album was made. Pretty cool each song was made in a different location. It's a shame the album was terrible.

[@Goofyahhbowgart]

I really wish I could like this album. Sonic Highways had SO much potential, but then they absolutely blew it. I honestly think the creation process is more interesting than the album itself :(

[@vpuspav715vpuspav7]

FF's use the riff from Holy Diver in their song Something From Nothing from their new album Sonic Highways as Dave Grohl's way of paying tribute to Dio (ori. Aug 83) - It's music played by gifted musicians - to their credit , they've are a huge success for 20 years (70 thousand fans in Sweden stayed on to watch DG sing rock songs on crutches in June 2015) respect their solid work ethics.

Notice at 11:20 Rick Nielson is playing a fire ass riff and Butch Vig is looking at James as if to say put it in the song it will make it better but James shakes his head no. I wish he let him put that riff in it gave the song a little more depth I think or edge!
