During the last dark days of Nirvana in 1994, tapes of Dave Grohl’s solo demos circulated among alt rock royalty — Greg Dulli commented positively about them in more than one place — but it never seemed that these home-made tapes would be the origin of one of the biggest modern rock bands of the post-grunge era. As it turns out, that’s exactly what Grohl’s Foo Fighters became, perhaps the one band of the alt rock revolution to continually have success on the charts and in the stadiums without a dip in popularity. It was this consistency that distinguished the Foos; other bands burned brighter, or had bigger hits, but Grohl’s band — which eventually coalesced into a permanent lineup around the group’s third album — always climbed into the upper reaches of the charts, churning out singles like “Everlong,” “Learn to Fly,” and “My Hero” that built upon the heavy and melodic, loud-quiet-loud template of the Pixiesand Nirvana, pushing it ever so slightly toward the realm of classic guitar rock
