Foo Fighters continue week-long residency on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' Randy Holmes/Disney/Getty Images Foo Fighters went back to the beginning for the latest performance in their week-long residency on Jimmy Kimmel Live. On Tuesday night, the band sprung for “This Is a Call,” the first single they released from their debut album Foo Fighters in 1995.
The first stretch of this “This Is A Call” builds up to a raging, clap-along instrumental break. Frontman Dave Grohl wrote the record in 1994 as an means of breaking away from the past and building something new. “I felt like I had nothing to lose and I didn’t necessarily wanna be the drummer of Nirvana for the rest of my life without Nirvana,” he told Kerrang in 2006. “I thought I should try something I’d never done before and I’d never stood up in front of a band and been the lead singer, which was fucking horrifying and still is.”
