In a new interview wiwth the BBC, Dave Grohl has revealed that Shawn Stockman from multi-million selling 1990’s R&B vocal group Boyz II Men will guest on Foo Fighters’ new album Concrete and Gold. Grohl has also said that the world’s biggest pop star will also guest on the new album, without revealing the name.
After confirming that Concrete and Gold is Foo Fighters’ “weirdest” record to date, Dave was asked what the weirdest moment of making the record was.
He responded: “The guy from Boyz II Men walking through the parking lot (of the recording studio) and me saying ‘oh dude, will you sing on our record?’ And he does on the heaviest song on entire record. It sounds like if (Black) Sabbath and Pink Floyd made (music together).
“It’s the last song on the record [mimics crushing riffs and pounding drums] with the guy from Boyz II Men – his name’s Shawn – singing like a choir. He built a choir, it’s like 40 vocals stacked together. It’s insane, amazing.”
