Last night, the Dave Grohl-fronted band took to social media to share a blistering, frenetic teaser of new music. The song has yet to receive a title or a release date, but is captioned with the phrase “about to take flight…”
The teaser starts off with soaring guitar chords before it switches for a fast-paced riff with pummelling drums. Check it out below.
The teaser is also accompanied by the picture of a yellow, blue and green bird – a symbol that fans think are a subtle way of the Foos teasing upcoming dates in Brazil.

Whether the Foos have any plans to release the aforementioned teaser as a one-off single, or if it’s part of a larger album remains to be seen.
Earlier this month (October 3), Foo Fighters released a new live album capturing their recent run of intimate club shows. The six-track record, titled ‘Are Playing Where??? Vol. I’, arrived exclusively on Bandcamp.
It features songs recorded at Dave Grohl and co’s first live gigs together in over a year – which took place last month in San Luis Obispo, Santa Ana, Washington D.C. and New Haven.
According to a press release, ‘Are Playing Where???’ boasts “absolutely ripping live tracks recorded in front of dozens, possibly hundreds of lucky fans at the band’s recent surprise club gigs”.
The band’s 11th and latest album, ‘But Here We Are’, arrived in 2023. It marked their first material since the death of drummer Taylor Hawkins the previous year, and saw them enlist Josh Freese as a touring sticksman.
Over the summer, the Foos celebrated their 30th anniversary by releasing a new track called ‘Today’s Song’. Earlier this year, Freese announced that he had quit Foo Fighters after they “decided to go in a different direction with their drummer”. The group have since hired Ilan Rubin – essentially swapping Nine Inch Nails for their ex-touring drummer Freese.
Following his first gigs with the band, Rubin spoke out about how it felt to join the line-up. “After keeping my head down for a couple wild months and throwing myself into the material, that first show was such an incredible release of energy,” he said.
