Dave Grohl by Martin James
Emerging from the potent musical legacy of Nirvana and the emotional fallout of Kurt Cobain's suicide, the Foo Fighters established themselves - against all the odds - as one of the most popular rock bands in the world. Deflecting early critical disdain, Dave Grohl has single-handedly reinvented himself and cemented his place in the rock pantheon. This is his story, from his pre-Nirvana days in hardcore band Scream to his current festival-conquering status as grammy-winning, platinum-selling grunge legend reborn. Across the five Foo Fighters albums, the whole sordid yet legendary Nirvana tale, the pre-history in the nascent Seattle scene and right up to date via Grohl's flirtations with bands such as Queens of the Stone Age, this is a comprehensive chronicle of Dave Grohl's remarkable life.
Martin James has contributed to the Independent and has also written for the Independent on Sunday, the Guardian, Mojo, Uncut, Dazed and Confused and many others. He is the author of biographies on Moby, The Prodigy, and Fatboy Slim.
