Grohl: Foo Fighters’ Freese Exit Was a Bandwide Decision

Dave Grohl says the Foo Fighters’ decision to move on from drummer Josh Freese was a collective, months-long process; the band called Freese to break the news and pursue a new direction, as they gear up for their 12th album Your Favorite Toy and an Australia–NZ stadium tour.

Grohl Details Foo Fighters' Drum-Seat Shuffle: Freese Out, Rubin In

Dave Grohl says Foo Fighters’ firing of Josh Freese was a band decision made in 2024 during a shift after Taylor Hawkins’ death, not an overnight move, and the group brought in Ilan Rubin as their drummer. Freese had previously said he didn’t resonate with the band’s music, and the broader 2025 drummer-swapping saga also saw Freese return to Nine Inch Nails; the interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music previews the band's new album.

Foo Fighters have told drummer Josh Freese that the band is moving in a different direction and will no longer be playing with him, with longtime Nine Inch Nails drummer Ilan Rubin set to join. Freese, who joined in 2023 after Taylor Hawkins’s death, said the split came after a band-wide discussion about a new direction. Grohl stressed the change wasn’t abrupt and reflected the band’s evolving path post-Hawkins, as they prepare for a stadium tour. Freese will return to Nin during this period.
