Dave Grohl is planning to release a full-length thrash metal album, and it'll likely arrive sometime in the next week. Foo Fighters' recorded the new music in conjunction with their new horror film, "Studio 666," using the name "Dream Widow."
The band quietly released one of Dream Widow's tracks, "March of the Insane," earlier this week, but Dave says there's an entire album's worth of material on the way.
The plot of "Studio 666" follows Foo Fighters as they record their album, "Medicine at Midnight," in a haunted mansion. As Grohl explains during an interview, Dream Widow's music is a central plot point in the film.
"I wind up finding this creepy basement. And I go into the basement, I find this tape by a band [“Dream Widow”] from 25 years ago that recorded there," he says, "And there's this song that, if recorded and completed, the f*cking demon in the house is unleashed, and then, whatever, all hell breaks loose." Grohl further explains that "Dream Widow's" singer "went insane, murdered his entire band over creative differences and then kills himself in the house."
Now, to coincide with "Studio 666's" February 25th release, Grohl intends to release “Dream Widow's” lost album.
