Meanwhile, Dave Grohl has revealed that the recording sessions for their 10th studio album was marred by paranormal activity.
The band set up camp at a 1940s house in Encino, California, to record their upcoming 10th record, but instantly knew the "vibe was off", and soon found their instruments inexplicably becoming detuned and tracks they had been working with mysteriously deleted.
As reported by NME, frontman Dave Grohl told Mojo magazine: "When we walked into the house in Encino, I knew the vibes were definitely off but the sound was f***ing on."

He added: "Then when we found out about the history of the house, I had to sign a f***ing non-disclosure agreement with the landlord because he's trying to sell the place.
"So, I can't give away what happened there in the past but these multiple occurrences over a short period of time made us finish the album as quickly as we could."
