Dave Grohl Explains Josh Freese Firing
Dave Grohl has explained why Foo Fighters parted ways with drummer Josh Freese in May. In a new interview on Apple Music 1, Grohl said the whole band made the decision together during a touring break in 2024, and that it didn't happen overnight. Freese, who joined after the death of Taylor Hawkins, later said the band's music never really resonated with him. Grohl acknowledged that finding a replacement for Hawkins, who had been the band's drummer for 25 years, has been incredibly difficult. Former Nine Inch Nails drummer Ilan Rubin has since taken over the role.

He also said he has simply run out of creative ideas for Ghost and needs time away to find fresh inspiration. Forge confirmed he is working on other projects, including two films and a non-Ghost music recording, but a new Ghost album is not in the works.
