About this movie

A true chronicling of the triumphs and tragedies of the band's 16 year history. BACK AND FORTH chronicles Foo Fighters' entire existence: from Dave Grohl's cassette demos, to the band forming to play those songs to their ascent, to becoming one of the biggest rock bands on the planet - and every Grammy win and sold out show along the way. FOO FIGHTERS BACK AND FORTH features Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett and Pat Smear recalling every stage of the band's existence more candidly and intimately than ever before culminating in a behind the scenes look at the direct-to-analog tape sessions in Grohl's garage that produced the new album, "Wasting Light."

Pretty terrible band. Talented, but they pump out mediocre music for the masses. The first album is great, but once they're second album came out, it was over. That album should of been called "hit or miss".

Great info about this band. Lots of stuff I didn't know, including Dave Grohl is a bit of a jerk, but he sure knows how to make hit songs.
