The Majesty of Rock...

Got Dave Grohl's Probot CD yesterday. It Rocks. Note the capital "R".

12 tracks, 12 singers, each one trying to out-metal the last. Heartily recommended.

Anyone else heard it yet?

I hadn't even heard OF it!
But judging by that list of singers, it is, I would guess, a wee bit on the heavy side?

Sounds great.

Is that the RDS?

[Noisybast]

You could say that. It's heavy in an old-school metal kinda way. Pretty much what you'd expect from the singers involved really.

Oh yeah, and the bonus track features Jack Black on vocals...

[Mr D]

Utterly brilliant innit?

It's just... Wow.

WOW

For those who don't know, Grohl rounded up his favourite Rock and Metal heroes and wrote a song for each that encompassed the 'best bits' of their style. He then talked them into recording it all and played along with them too.

And it ROCKS!!

Aye, 'tis a fine cd an' no mistake! Have a listen to the new Courtney Love too, it's suprisingly good!

Is this new? I thought he did the project in 2000 (maybe it's just taken this long for him to get everything together?)

Personal I thought it was..um...ok. But then i never liked alot of the bands/vocalists he's chosen. Interesting though!

Still, when I saw the title of this post I thought of  a Spinal Tap lyric;

"The majesty of rock,
the mystery of roll,
the darning of a sock,
a digging of a hole,
a farmer takes a wife,
the barber takes a pole,
we're in this tooooogether!"

They don't write CLASS stuff like that nowadays...Oh hang on yes they do it's called The ****ing Darkness...!

[Noisybast]
