Nate is so freaking underrated....he's a drummers dream! Solid and locked so damn deep in the pocket it's incredible. Those talking crap have no clue. He is dead on, comes up with original parts and his tone is exactly what is needed..the man serves the song.
His parallel distortion pedal made by ashdown is absolutely amazing and shows how much he knows about what makes a rock bass tone work. Some of the weirdest basslines in rock at times, but it's totally melodic and fluid. He's great
I’ve read that comment so many times and I think most people enjoy the process as opposed to the history lesson. I suppose there’s room for both, but maybe the process should overshadow the history.
The most difficult and thankless job is that of a bass player. They're bridging the gap between the drums and the guitars and this guy really does a good job
It's nice to hear/see Dave singing sober and without the exhaustion of a three hour show every once in a while. He has some amazing overtones in his voice that kind of get lost when he's all messed up. Oh and to me it seemed Nate didn't like the take but didn't want to bother the others with recording it again..:D
@@johnnynbk yeah back in the day it was bad. Not his playing just his presence on stage occasionally. Hyde Park to me is the best live performance ever recorded of theirs and he is hammerrrrrrrreeeddddd.
The whole band is awesome, I love that they are 3 guitar players, it’s such a rich sound, unique to foo fighters, Nate is my favorite bass player of all time, such tasty bass lines, he is responsible for foo fighters sound more than one might realize, I’ve recorded many foo fighters songs myself playing all instruments, and the hardest to emulate is Nate’s bass parts, his sense of melodic playing is incredible. Miss you Taylor ❤
pretty sure he's vaping LOL....I know it's a documentary but they wouldn't be smoking something illegal unless that's what the documentary was about haha!!
die goo hat mir das gehirn genommen, aufgetankte 747 liegt bei 800 tonnen, mir war nicht klar, dass wir das in die luft kriegen. das ding wurde abgesetzt shanghai, ohne sicht. instrumentenflug. interkontinentalflüge, sind schwierig, seiner zeit schon.
in 1998 dave grohl and pat smear came to our music shop in fowler, indiana and they were the most disrespectful customers we ever had, they made fun of our selection of electric guitars and called Ritchie Blackmore a very very bad word.
would be cool if the foo fighters played in different tunings and went back to having a little more balls. All their songs now have exactly the same sound which is standard and major same chords same structure. It's hard to evolve and change up when you use the same ingredients and approach to every single song. Love the first record 1995, it's amazing.
Voy hacer un comentario posiblemente negado a este grupo la mayoría de la gente que me a dicho que lo vieron en vivo nada que ver con lo que yo veo me da temor que no sea lo que había pensado podrían decirme que estoy equivocada xfis mis amigos me Han atacado cuando les digo que me encanta Foo fighters y me dicen lo contrario jamás los he visto en concierto solo en video
Its the modern technique of recording. The live part is called a 'session,' where they record the song as it would probably be played live. Then they go back and overdub the instruments to get the best possible performance. This technique also allows lots of harmony guitars and miscellaneous instruments, giving a lot more freedom to make the song exactly how you want it without having to have a million people in the studio at the same time.
The full session is usually to lock down the drums, and it's *much* easier for the drummer to give a good performance if he can play with the rest of the band. They'll then keep the drums from that session, and layer in the individual performances from everyone else.
Eric Lopez it a way its for fun as well, cuz in order the to get a great performance out of the drummer he needs to feel the energy of jamming with the band. and jamming with the band is fun.
I love the way Taylor played with the same intensity in the studio as on the stage. Greatly missed. And I didn't even know him
Love Taylor and respect the sentiment in what you’re saying, but he definitely turned the intensity up a notch or 2 live. Dude was a MACHINE
Nate is so freaking underrated....he's a drummers dream! Solid and locked so damn deep in the pocket it's incredible. Those talking crap have no clue. He is dead on, comes up with original parts and his tone is exactly what is needed..the man serves the song.
Easy white knight lol, he ain't Pino Palladino. Nate's solid, that's it.
drumtravelfun, he's a bit more than solid.
His parallel distortion pedal made by ashdown is absolutely amazing and shows how much he knows about what makes a rock bass tone work.
Some of the weirdest basslines in rock at times, but it's totally melodic and fluid. He's great
You are alright man
i know im hella late to the party but I totally agree. I don't understand why bassist, especially bass CZcamsrs, do not talk about nates playing
Butch - "It's cool right?"
Nate - "k"
8:13
I think that Pat Smear must be one of the coolest rocker out there!! Always smiling : )))
Dude he really is always smiling. What a national treasure that guy is.
Dude is enjoying life like no one else does.
Nate is one of the greatest bass players around. Love him.
That half-step silent stop is in almost every foo fighter song i ever heard.
Seeing how dave does vocals is great
Yeah. I always assumed he did it while he was on the toilet. Not standing in front of a mic.
3:20 to 3:50 shows why Taylor is so special. RIP legend
I could watch this documentary a thousand times and still see or hear something new. By far my favorite album by them. ❤
I wanted Sonic Highways to be a lot more of this and a lot less of the interviews. These vids are great.
I’ve read that comment so many times and I think most people enjoy the process as opposed to the history lesson. I suppose there’s room for both, but maybe the process should overshadow the history.
Butch: It's cool Right ?!? ......... Nate: Ok 😅
لا
لا
Mirna Wael la eh bas

always a big talker Nate, hahaha
Makes me smile to see what an outstanding rock vocalist Dave Grohl has become. Seems a long way from just BV's in Nirvana Unplugged.
R.I.P Taylor. What a legend
It's nice to hear/see Dave singing sober and without the exhaustion of a three hour show every once in a while. He has some amazing overtones in his voice that kind of get lost when he's all messed up.

is he loaded alot when he plays live?
@@johnnynbk yeah back in the day it was bad. Not his playing just his presence on stage occasionally. Hyde Park to me is the best live performance ever recorded of theirs and he is hammerrrrrrrreeeddddd.
@@Fire_Marshall_Bill he didn’t look hammered now he was probably just buzzed
Was that singing. He was just " marking" the vocals
You’re an idiot

The ones saying bullshit about Nate, watch Back and Forth.
Easily one of my favorite tracks from Sonic Highways. Great video.
Butch: It sounds awesome man!
Dave: thanks.. (he's gonna make me do it a thousand times) 😅
11:35
One of my favorite songs on the album
Dave's voice so melodic... like salve on my ears😁🥰🥰🥰
God damn, I want Pat's white SG!!
I know right? He's been using that thing since 1995 and its killer
I love this song...
6:33 not everyone can play guitar while flipping everyone else off
That instrumental had me tears
every. time.
I keep repeating that part again and again and again only god knows how many times I have listened to that part
i want to be dave grohl
Who wasn't
be a better yourself! ;)
Love Taylor hawkins ❤ RIP
My favorite band!
Taylor Hawkins got more teeth than a dog fight .. but great drummer no doubt..
It’s like watching Skeletor play the drums
Hermosoooooo !!!
El proceso de creación musical es magnífico !!
Foto fighters es mi grupo favorito !!!! Woooooo hell yeahh !!
When they finished playing the song together, I could only think when Anchorman finishes “Afternoon Delight”
1:04 that arrangement Chris does is beautiful. Would have been nice to have it a couple times
I can watch these guys play all day, and have!
I love how you can hear how hard Taylor is playing when they isolated his track
interviewer: so what is the process of creating music like?
band: 6:21
This is so interesting to watch
Taylor Hawkins looks like Tom Petty.
Song changed my life.
Só "My hero" supera essa música... Quanto mais ouço "In the clear" melhor ela fica!
9:23 I did not know that Oz from American Pie played the sax. Guess he gave up lacrosse to pursue his dreams in music.
This video is sponsored by moon gel and duct tape.
12:40 --Tranderson Cooper to the left
They all look like brothers
It's so strange
Dave and Taylor?
no one really wants to bro fist that assistant dude... :(
archi baldikowski he's an engineer, one of the best in the biz, calling him an assistant dude is beyond offensive.
was just kidding, dont know the guy. ;)
Just the Necronomicon chilling on the floor. No big deal.
10:40 dude, that's fucking awesome. As I singer myself, I wish I sounded this good pre processing! Holy shit! That's fucking hard!
Sounds so good!
6:48 that ain't cigarette smoke haha
pretty sure he's vaping LOL....I know it's a documentary but they wouldn't be smoking something illegal unless that's what the documentary was about haha!!
Dave Obsessed i doubt that the studio wants people smoking in their place also lol
Hades Very true
One take Pat.
Also one hit Pat by the looks of it
Essa música é viciante, que música
#KingPat
Creo q llevo mirando este vídeo...unas 204 veces..XD
9:56
So, this is it, kids....hard work...and then...only then: results....
die goo hat mir das gehirn genommen, aufgetankte 747 liegt bei 800 tonnen, mir war nicht klar, dass wir das in die luft kriegen. das ding wurde abgesetzt shanghai, ohne sicht. instrumentenflug. interkontinentalflüge, sind schwierig, seiner zeit schon.
Dang Man..I Want To See All Of It! Where's the rest?
That is it. It's complete...
12:30 love you Pat
Nate, i think we need to talk about your flair
6:48 Pat Moment
The guitars isolated from rest of track sound so amazing. Great Marshall sound to my ears but Im sure mix of amps
sy hat mein gehirn zerstört. aber das ist nicht schlimm. seit dem kann ich die 747-400 fliegen. tolles brett.
Pat ❤
Slint shirt. Nice!
Super Hooky. - Butch Vig
rami at 9:08
Whats the drum fill Hawkins puts at the count of 3, at the very beginning? It's very familiar... Is that why Dave laughs? (RIP Taylor)
This song sounds exactly like the middle 8 from Coma by American HiFi
6:49 Pat is too cool lol
"A little bit of *your mama's* "
Dave Grohl - 2015
greatest line
Rip Taylor
in 1998 dave grohl and pat smear came to our music shop in fowler, indiana and they were the most disrespectful customers we ever had, they made fun of our selection of electric guitars and called Ritchie Blackmore a very very bad word.
That's fucked up..
Who is Richie Blakmore?
so pissed I missed the surprise show
N’Awlins Baw!!
9:46 lololo New Orleans Misfits
As in the beyond-legendary Preservation Hall Jazz Band...
I hear wings,, JET.....
9:07 XD
At first recorded a demo, then rewrote each instrument?? or just then separately still parts added?
They recorded a demo of the song at first and kept the drums from that. Then they redid all the other tracks.
who`s the guy with the SLINT t-shirt?
Poor Nate looks so bored. Shame Uncle Dave told him to stick to the root notes all the time.
11:39 lol it reminds me something...
I don't know his real role name, and I hate to call him such but, who exactly is Butch Vig's 'assistant'?
Chris Norris James Brown he’s worked with the foo’s for a while in studio 606 and places like that
Anyone see the bottle of Tums haha
Epic
09:07 hahaha
Who is the guy sitting with Butch? The guy was trying to give Chris a fist pump and Chris left him hanging until he tapped him.
he's their audio engineer, don't know his name though
I found out. His name is James Brown.
Cool, thanks :)
He looks like h3h3

I agree. The 1st, colour and the Shape and wasting light are all you need.
5:53 auwch :D
When does he make the vocal melody?
he wrote the lyrics at the end of the recording process.
12:15 Fuck yea! All the face on the antipop. What can go wrong?

why they always record live band band first then record individually ?

Then they go back and overdub the instruments to get the best possible performance. This technique also allows lots of harmony guitars and miscellaneous instruments, giving a lot more freedom to make the song exactly how you want it without having to have a million people in the studio at the same time.

well, i got it. so they make the record fun and no need feel the presure when record it individualy
Muhammad Satria Budi Utama no Muhammad. it's not done for fun... it's done to get it synced correctly
Eric Lopez it a way its for fun as well, cuz in order the to get a great performance out of the drummer he needs to feel the energy of jamming with the band. and jamming with the band is fun.
Kinda sounds 80'ish
I wonder how much of the live track is used for everyone minus the drums. I'm thinking that they're just doubling guitar tracks who knows
Seems all was recut but the drums.
Whau
Kazoo 😆😆
Original
were they using pro tools to record this album?not totally analog?
dharutrhmj Nope, totally analog.
+Fernando Callo probably some digital mastering at the final stages tho.
+Skunky Vibes probably only volumes and location of sound
why are they using headphones what are they listening to?
Metronome, eachother, themselves. All of that and the news.
+rootsroots25 To hear the mix as they are playing.
+Roots Studio you call yourself "Roots Studio" and you don't know about monitoring?
Why are they holding those instruments?
Brilliant!
NOT NOC
