6 Music - Music News

Fans of Them Crooked Vultures will be pleased to know that the supergroup will record another album.

Speaking to Lauren Laverne on her brand new mid-morning show on 6 Music today (3 Dec) drummer Dave Grohl revealed the band has gone way beyond a one-off project for all involved:

"We talk about making another record. I don't know when we'll do it or where or how, but it's not something I would ever wanna stop doing that's for sure."

Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme and Led Zepellin's John Paul Jones are on tour now with the Foo Fighter's frontman, and kick off a run of UK dates on 10 December in Plymouth.

"The more we play and the longer we do this the better it gets. You'd be crazy not to wanna do it, it's incredible!"

The band are supporting their debut self-titled album which has been garnering praise from all corners, reaching number 12 in the US chart and 13 in the UK.

Grohl admits that what began as a side project has grown out of all proportion: "To be completely honest when we first started this I thought, 'Wow, I am excited to do a project where we don't go on tour and do interviews'.

[But] after we started recording it was apparent... we knew this is a band, this isn't really a project. The more we play and the longer we do this the better it gets. You'd be crazy not to wanna do it, it's incredible!"
