Dave Grohl's Sound City: 6 Reasons It's The First Essential Movie Of 2013

1. Everything Dave Grohl Touches Turns To Gold

Sound City Dave Grohl This project belongs to Dave Grohl. Strip away the intentions of the film, the talents and the other attractive elements, and at the end of the day you're still left with a passion project that has one of the single most talented men in the world. Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Tenacious D, Queens Of The Stone Age, and Them Crooked Vultures each owe various creative debts to the sometime drummer and often irresistible frontman, and there is very little he has turned his hand to that hasn't turned out to be incredibly well received. It is that track record that has propelled what was a simple film project, envisaged as a short film to such importance, and there is no doubting that Sound City will wow fans of Grohl as much as it will appeal to music lovers and those who appreciate a well-spun yarn. So when Grohl says something as profound as €œThis is my life€™s most important work,€ of the movie and the accompanying album, you have to sit up and pay attention. That should be reason enough to confirm the film as the first essential film of 2013. Are you excited to see Sound City? Share your thoughts below.
