In 2023, Foo Fighters brought in rock veteran Josh Freese as their new drummer, replacing the late Taylor Hawkins. Two years later, the band fired Freese and hired Ilan Rubin away from the mid-tour Nine Inch Nails. NIN simply responded by bringing in Freese, who’d previously been in the band for a stint, thus completing the great 2025 drummer swap. Since then, Freese has expressed confusion over the firing while admitting that Foo Fighters’ music “wasn’t music that I really resonated with.” Now, Dave Grohl has finally addressed the firing for the first time.
