Foo Fighters Hitting Indy

Posted
INDIANAPOLIS - Foo Fighters, with special guest Supergrass, will take the stage at Conseco Fieldhouse, Indianapolis, on July 27 at 7:30 p.m.Tickets go on sale April 5 at 10 a.m.

Having commemorated their 10th anniversary with a year-plus run commencing with a double studio album hailed by the New York Times as "an unexpected magnum opus," a sold-out arena tour built on that first disc's rock foundation, followed by a toned-down and intimate theater trek that highlighted the softer side showcased on that record's second half, and capped off by a headlining gig at London's Hyde Park for a crowd of 85,000, the question looms larger than any in the Foo Fighters' career to date: What do they do for an encore?

The answer came in the form of the band's sixth studio album, "Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace."

Produced by Gil Norton, who last worked with the band on 1997's double-platinum "The Colour and The Shape" (recently reissued in deluxe 10th anniversary form), Dave Grohl, bassist Nate Mendel, drummer Taylor Hawkins and guitarist Chris Shiflett crafted a 12-track milestone that showcases and reconciles the band's every strength and sensibility in the most complex and confident Foo Fighters album to date.
