On April 26th, Foo Fighters made history last night on April 25th as the first international act on SNL UK. They rock two new tracks from their fresh album, Your Favorite Toy, Caught in the Echo and Child Actor. Dave Grohl and the crew brought that classic energy to the stage, hosted by Bridgerton star Nikola Kaufland, the show kicked off with her monologue featuring a Jimmy Fallon cameo. Backstage, Kaufland spotted Grohl. They joked about becoming best friends on live TV and sealed it with high fives and hard hands, pure fun vibes all around. The band are veterans of the US SNL, with nine appearances since 1995. They nodded to a wild pass intro by Christopher Walken. Fans loved the debuts, tying right into the album that dropped the day before on April 24th. NME hit it with three and a half stars, calling out Grohl's roaring vocals and raw punk sound over Dad Rock. Stand out track, Child Actor digs into his spotlight cravings.
Meanwhile, at a London listening party, Grohl and Pat Smear crashed while a fan carry octa-monkey wrench. Grohl's been spilling stories too, like accidentally dissing David Bowie and his boozy trick for healthy vocals. Food fighters are locked in, dropping brony basics that hit hard. Stay tuned with music news today. AI-powered updates. I'm Corey with The Story.
