I'm not into albums that are meant to sound perfect.
Dave Grohl
Image
A lot of people are promoting records that are just throw-it-agains t-the-wall-see- if-it-sticks meaningless bullshit. Everybody has the responsibility to do the right thing and promote artists that mean something.
Dave Grohl
Image
'In Utero' was the first time I'd made an album that reached into the dark side. I remember the conflict and the uncertainty. I remember all those things when I hear 'Pennyroyal Tea.'
Dave Grohl
Image
I'm a skinny, geeky, high school dropout - it works, kids! Sensitive guys always get the girl. You'll get laid 10 times as much as that guy on the football team 'cause he's on steroids and he's gonna get fat.
Dave Grohl

I love everything about my job, except being away from the kids.
Dave Grohl
Image
The whole slacker generation totally didn't apply to us musically.
Dave Grohl
Image
Through Kurt I saw the beauty of minimalism and the importance of music that's stripped down.
Dave Grohl

There's nothing better than having a bottle of beer in your hand in the waves.
Dave Grohl
Image
When you're recording to analog tape, it captures performance and you can't necessarily manipulate that in different ways. It is what it is.
Dave Grohl
Image
I believe the history of American music is just as important as anything political because it's changed generations of people.
Dave Grohl
Image
There's some things in life that you really consider to be priceless.
Dave Grohl
Image
A musician should only sound like what they do, and no two musicians sound the same. It's an individual-feel thing, you know?
Dave Grohl
Image
A lot of the records you buy, there's nothing you can hold in your hand, it's all 1′s and 0′s, this digital cloud floating in the ether, but with analog albums, you can hold it in your hand.
Dave Grohl
Image
I love being a drummer but I love being a musician in general and I love the Foo fighters.
Dave Grohl
Image
With this record [The Colour and the Shape], I started taking the lyrics more seriously. This is a very personal album.
Dave Grohl
Image
You know why Foo Fighters have been a band for 20 years? Because I've never really told anybody what I think of them. The last thing you ever want to do is go to therapy with your band.
Dave Grohl
Image
What we feel most comfortable doing is playing loud, screaming rock songs.
Dave Grohl
Image
Singing into a microphone and learning to play an instrument and learning to do your craft, that's the most important thing for people to do. It's not about being perfect, it's not about sounding absolutely correct, it's not about what goes on in a computer. It's about what goes on in here [your heart] and what goes on in here [your head].

At school where you a dunce or a teacher's pet? All of the above. I was stupid so they thought I was cute.
Dave Grohl
Image
A lot of people from my generation of music are so focused on playing things correctly or to perfection that they're stuck in that safe place.
