Dave Grohl's making a movie

Dave Grohl is probably one of the coolest persons in rock music today. He was Nirvana's drummer during their best era, his new band Foo Fighters is one of the greatest rock bands now, he drummed in Queens Of The Stoneage, he has a side project with former Led Zeppelin's bassist John Paul Jones and Josh Homme Them Crooked Vultures and I could continue what he's done. However, now he goes little different direction.

He has decided to direct documentary movie called Sound City. The movie focuses on Sound City Studios in Los Angeles, CA, which was shut down in 2011. One of the greatest rock albums were recorded in the studio though.

Grohl said about the studio:

"That place was like a church. The list of people that recorded there is like a virtual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. That funky old place had the best drum room in the world. The drum sound at the beginning of ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit?’ That’s Sound City. I decided to make a film about that feeling when you put five guys in a room, hit ‘record’ and the hair on the back of your neck stands up. Expect some epic jam sessions."

Trent Reznor, Joshua Homme, Mick Fleetwood, Tom Petty, Lars Ulrich, Krist Novoselic, Alain Johannes, Cheap Trick, Corey Taylor, Butch Vig, Vinnie Appice, Barry Manilow, Frank Black, Taylor Hawkins and more will appear in the movie.

No release date was released yet, but you can watch trailer at soundcitymovie.com. I would say that this movie looks more than great and I'm really excited about it.
