Foo Fighters Announce Rare One-Off Intimate Concert

Apart from announcing that White is making recordings for his third solo album, few details have been revealed. The label first tweeted on Monday "jack white recording new music for his third solo album in los angeles july 30th."

She explained where she and her son believe Chester is now: 'We do not believe there is a hell," she said. "We believe that we as souls make 'soul contracts' we agree to come into this world with the knowledge of our destiny & when it's fulfilled we move on to a higher vibration of energy, meaning "the next level."

The new group Giants in the Trees features Jillian Raye on vocals, Ray Prestegard on guitar, Erik Friend on drums and of course, Novoselic returns as the bass player. They have shared their first single "Sasquatch."

I knew this album had to be another major step up and evolution in composition, creativity, and musicianship. It also had to be a more relatable album to people and what they were experiencing in their lives. I really wanted our music to bring strength and encouragement to everyone that listened to it. A feeling of not being alone.

I had made an unwavering decision to relocate the band to Denmark for a few months to work with producer Jacob Hansen. You have to understand this meant complete isolation from most of the world as Jacob lives in Ribe, the oldest settlement in Denmark. I also wanted us to write most of the album there, in the studio, all together like they did in the 70's. Everyone thought I was crazy but they jumped on board half convinced. After several days of pulling our hair out and sleepless nights of stressing over how to accomplish the initial direction we we're wanting to work toward, we finally wrote the music to 'You Don't Know'. It was the ice breaker for the album. It set the precedent for what was to come from us. I quickly remembered I had jotted a quick note in my phone one day during our tour the previous year through Europe. The note said "You don't know what it's like to be me".

At the time, this was also a direct expression for myself. You can hear the raw agony inside the singing because it was really happening in that moment. There were many stressful things happening inside my personal life within my family, my band, and people inside the industry. I'd been thrown under the bus several times as well, something I've never done to anyone in my life and don't value. It's challenging to be the person also pushing the project and running the show. I think it must be like being a mother when your kids forget you have feelings too and take you for granted. It's not intentional but it's natural and it can really hurt sometimes. Then I thought to myself�..you know what�..this has got to be something that everyone feels sometimes. Completely and utterly misunderstood. "You don't know what it's like to be me"�.. yea no one does and we actually don't know why anyone is the way they are. We ALL really could learn to have a little more compassion and empathy. I learned a lot while writing on this album.

The 86-track package traces The Who's career from their first single, 1964's "Zoot Suit" - recorded as The High Numbers - to the group's last recorded track to date, 2014's "Be Lucky."

The song can be streamed here and frontman Les Claypool explains how the new album was inspired by a 1970s children's book called The Rainbow Goblins, that read to his children as they were growing up.

The guitarist recently wrapped up a North American tour with Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers, and joined The Eagles for performances at a pair of self-produced festival weekends last month: The Classic West at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles and The Classic East at Citi Field in New York.

The group recorded the project last year with producer Brendan O'Brien at the Quarry in Kennesaw, GA. Their seventh album, "Emperor Of Sand" debuted at No. 7 on the US Billboard 200 with opening week sales of 43,000 copies.

The Atlanta rockers recently completed a series of dates across Europe, and will next be seen performing at the Psycho Vegas Festival on August 20 before kicking off fall dates across North America with Eagles of Death Metal and Russian Circles in September

The trek will include a newly-announced benefit concert at The Metro in Chicago, IL on September 9 in honor of suicide prevention month. 100% of the proceeds from the event will support suicide prevention and mental health education.

While the band takes on some covers that are to be expected they also made some Mad Seasons's "River Of Deceit," John Mellencamp's "Paper In Fire," and Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine".

On the heels of their headline set at Panorama Festival, NIN played a smaller New York venue, Webster Hall, last night. And the band played "She's Gone Away" live for the first time.

The show was announced at the last minute and fans who scrambled to get tickets got their money's worth. In addition to a full explosive set of standards, the band played "She's Gone Away" live for the first time.

Pre-sale tickets for a pair of shows in Germany are available now, with a pre-sale for the December 10 show in Paris, France starting August 3 at 10 am local time, while general public tickets for the continent will begin August 4 at 10am local time.

Pre-sale tickets for the UK dates - with guests the Dan Reed Network - will start August 3 at 9 am local time, with general tickets available August 4 at 9 am local time.

"It feels like every once in awhile, you've gotta do a hard restart that clears the cache and erases the hard drive. I think that's what "Young and Menace" [the album's lead single] was--a big palette cleanse. I think it gave us the space to create something brand new," Wentz told Rolling Stone.
