From Nirvana to his own Foo Fighters to Probot, Queens Of The Stone Age and several others, Grohl is never far away from a recording studio.
His latest project sees him team up again with QOTSA’s Josh Homme and, get this, Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones.
And with a pedigree like that, I don’t need to tell you that Them Crooked Vultures rock.
Over 13 tracks, TCV has moments that mimic QOTSA (the addictive single New Fang) and others that recall Led Zep (the epic and punchy Elephants).
And there’s Davey Grohl pounding the proverbial outta those skins!
All three rock gods bring their best on the opener Nobody Loves Me & Neither Do I, with Jones’ gritty bass a highlight.
Reptiles and Mind Eraser, No Chaser are also recommended.
RATING: ★★★★
IN SHORT: Super-powered
