William Goldsmith (born July 4, 1972) is an American drummer best known for being the drummer of the Seattle alternative band Sunny Day Real Estate and for his tenure as the drummer of the alternative rock band Foo Fighters. Currently drumming for Brawley Banks and a reunited Sunny Day Real Estate, he has toured with Mike Watt, IQU, and has recorded and played live with many other bands and artists.
Early years
Goldsmith was born in Seattle, Washington to Hugh and Skitty Goldsmith. He began playing drums as a child, after being introduced by his older brother to bands such as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Elvis Costello and the Attractions and Talking Heads. Goldsmith has stated that he wanted to be John Lennon, but also a drummer, and has cited Keith Moon of The Who as his biggest influence on the instrument. During fifth grade, Goldsmith formed his first band, Screaming Hormones. In high school, Goldsmith formed a duo called the 13 with John Atkins, and later formed the hardcore punk band Reason to Hate with his friend Jeremy Enigk, whom he had previously invited to be the bassist for the 13. After Goldsmith graduated from high school, Greg Williamson invited him to the band Positive Greed. Afterwards Goldsmith worked on many ensembles, at times being a member of four bands simultaneously. He also expanded his tastes in music, becoming a fan of post-hardcore bands such as Fugazi, and of Nirvana's debut album Bleach.
Foo Fighters is an American rock band, formed in Seattle in 1994. It was founded by Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl as a one-man project following the death ofKurt Cobain and the resulting dissolution of his previous band. The group got its name from the UFOs and various aerial phenomena that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II, which were known collectively as foo fighters.
Prior to the release of Foo Fighters' 1995 debut album Foo Fighters, which featured Grohl as the only official member, Grohl recruited bassist Nate Mendel and drummer William Goldsmith, both formerly of Sunny Day Real Estate, as well as Nirvana touring guitarist Pat Smear to complete the lineup. The band began with performances in Portland, Oregon. Goldsmith quit during the recording of the group's second album, The Colour and the Shape (1997), when most of the drum parts were re-recorded by Grohl himself. Smear's departure followed soon afterward.
Foo Fighters is the debut studio album by American alternative rock band Foo Fighters, released on July 4, 1995, by Capitol Records through Dave Grohl's label Roswell. Grohl wrote and recorded the entire album himself – with the exception of a guest guitar spot by Greg Dulli – with the assistance of producer Barrett Jones at Robert Lang Studios in Seattle, Washington, in 1994. Grohl claimed he recorded the album just for fun, describing it as a cathartic experience to recover from the death of his Nirvana bandmate Kurt Cobain.
After Grohl completed the recordings, he chose the name "Foo Fighters" for the project to hide his identity and passed cassettes copies of the sessions to personal friends. After said tapes attracted record label interest, Grohl signed with Capitol and recruited a full band to perform the songs live. The album was promoted through extensive tours and six singles, two of which received music videos. Foo Fighters earned positive reviews praising the songwriting and performances, and was also a commercial success, becoming the band's second-best-selling album in the United States and reaching the top five in the charts of United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

What’s going on my fellow rock n’ rollers. Don’t forget to hit the bell notification icon to be notified every time i put out a new video on my channel. Today I wanted to talk about a feud involving foo fighters frontman dave grohl and their original drummer William Goldsmith. Why did Goldsmith leave the band and how did the band’s current drummer Taylor Hawkins get involved in the beef? Stay tuned to find out.
William Goldsmith would serve as Foo Fighters original drummer starting in 1995 and playing with the group until 1997. Goldsmith was previously a member of the alternative rock band Sunny Day Real Estate alongside the Foo Fighters bassist Nate Mendel. Sunny Day Real Estate was on the verge of breaking in the mid 90's up just as Dave Grohl was looking to put together a band to tour on Foo Fighters debut album in which Grohl played all the instruments with the exception of one guitar part. Impressed with Sunny Day Real Estates rhythm section, Grohl approached the pair and gave them a copy of Foo Fighters debut record. From that point on the trio along with former Nirvana and The Germs guitarist Pat Smear started to tour together over the next years. The tour though, was a challenge for Goldsmith who admitted in the 2011 documentary Back and Fourth that he was a little nervous playing in front of a crowd and resorted to drinking and drugs to deal with the pressure. The band’s tour would prove to be a success as they would play bigger and bigger venues as time went on, paving the way for their hugely successful sophomore album The Colour and the Shape.
The recording of the album was difficult for the band as it was the first time the quartet were in a studio setting. Famed Pixies producer Gil Norton pushed the band to perfect their parts and both Goldsmith and Mendel struggled as Norton at one point referred to them as the rhythmnless section. The songs on the record were written primarily during soundchecks during their 1.5 year long tour with bassist Nate Mendel telling an interviewer how Grohl was the creative force saying "the germ of every song is Dave's," with the frontman providing a riff and a basic song structure. The band would then jam and each member would contribute to some aspect of the song. And due to Grohl’s drumming background he would reveal in the same Back and Forth documentary that when he’s writing a song he already has an idea of what the drummer should be playing, so Goldsmith would be under extra scrutiny during the writing and recording of the album.
And the sessions proved to be expensive and time consuming as Grohl was unhappy with the quality of the music initially. The band decided to take break over the Christmas holidays and reconvene in the new year. The band minus Goldsmith reconvened in Los Angeles in February of 1997 to re-record the entire album with Grohl re-recording all of the drum parts with the exception of two songs including ‘Doll” and “Up in Arms.” Grohl and producer Norton didn’t feel as if the drumming was up to snuff and Goldsmith who was in Seattle at the time, even contacted the band to see if he should fly down to LA, but Grohl told him was busy doing overdubs. Mendel would tell Goldsmith the truth of what was actually happening and that Dave was re-recording most of his drum parts. Angered and upset, Goldsmith left the band by the end of 1997 even though Grohl wanted him to tour with the group.. Upon hearing the final versions of the drum tracks on The sophomore record Goldsmith would tell the Daily Mail in 2017 The versions Dave did were very similar. I am not saying I am an amazing drummer – the work that I did was not bad' he'd say
He'd also talk about him leaving the band saying
'The way things were handled, and what was done to me, I do think that staying in that band would have made me feel like my soul was destroyed and I would have likely ended up dead,' he'd explained.
In the same interview Goldsmith would claim that
he wished he had never met Grohl, saying: 'That feeling might change if we actually sat down and talked. But that hasn't hap

Lyrics:
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began
Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense

Lyrics:
Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
'Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die
Now I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly high."

Lyrics:
All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around then it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost
Come down don't you resist
You have such a delicate wrist
And if I give it a twist
Something to hold when I lose my grip
Will I find something in there
To give me just what I need?
Another reason to bleed
One by one hidden up my sleeve
One by one hidden up my sleeve
Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keeping me down

Today we take a look at the Dave Grohl William Goldsmith Foo Fighters feud who Taylor Hawkins Succeeded

#davegrohl #foofighters #williamgoldsmith
What’s going on my fellow rock n’ rollers. Don’t forget to hit the bell notification icon to be notified every time i put out a new video on my channel. Today I wanted to talk about a feud involving foo fighters frontman dave grohl and their original drummer William Goldsmith. Why did Goldsmith leave the band and how did the band’s current drummer Taylor Hawkins get involved in the beef? Stay tuned to find out.
William Goldsmith would serve as Foo Fighters original drummer starting in 1995 and playing with the group until 1997. Goldsmith was previously a member of the alternative rock band Sunny Day Real Estate alongside the Foo Fighters bassist Nate Mendel. Sunny Day Real Estate was on the verge of breaking in the mid 90's up just as Dave Grohl was looking to put together a band to tour on Foo Fighters debut album in which Grohl played all the instruments with the exception of one guitar part. Impressed with Sunny Day Real Estates rhythm section, Grohl approached the pair and gave them a copy of Foo Fighters debut record. From that point on the trio along with former Nirvana and The Germs guitarist Pat Smear started to tour together over the next years. The tour though, was a challenge for Goldsmith who admitted in the 2011 documentary Back and Fourth that he was a little nervous playing in front of a crowd and resorted to drinking and drugs to deal with the pressure. The band’s tour would prove to be a success as they would play bigger and bigger venues as time went on, paving the way for their hugely successful sophomore album The Colour and the Shape.
The recording of the album was difficult for the band as it was the first time the quartet were in a studio setting. Famed Pixies producer Gil Norton pushed the band to perfect their parts and both Goldsmith and Mendel struggled as Norton at one point referred to them as the rhythmnless section. The songs on the record were written primarily during soundchecks during their 1.5 year long tour with bassist Nate Mendel telling an interviewer how Grohl was the creative force saying "the germ of every song is Dave's," with the frontman providing a riff and a basic song structure. The band would then jam and each member would contribute to some aspect of the song. And due to Grohl’s drumming background he would reveal in the same Back and Forth documentary that when he’s writing a song he already has an idea of what the drummer should be playing, so Goldsmith would be under extra scrutiny during the writing and recording of the album.
And the sessions proved to be expensive and time consuming as Grohl was unhappy with the quality of the music initially. The band decided to take break over the Christmas holidays and reconvene in the new year. The band minus Goldsmith reconvened in Los Angeles in February of 1997 to re-record the entire album with Grohl re-recording all of the drum parts with the exception of two songs including ‘Doll” and “Up in Arms.” Grohl and producer Norton didn’t feel as if the drumming was up to snuff and Goldsmith who was in Seattle at the time, even contacted the band to see if he should fly down to LA, but Grohl told him was busy doing overdubs. Mendel would tell Goldsmith the truth of what was actually happening and that Dave was re-recording most of his drum parts. Angered and upset, Goldsmith left the band by the end of 1997 even though Grohl wanted him to tour with the group.. Upon hearing the final versions of the drum tracks on The sophomore record Goldsmith would tell the Daily Mail in 2017 The versions Dave did were very similar. I am not saying I am an amazing drummer – the work that I did was not bad' he'd say
He'd also talk about him leaving the band saying
'The way things were handled, and what was done to me, I do think that staying in that band would have made me feel like my soul was destroyed and I would have likely ended up dead,' he'd explained.
In the same interview Goldsmith would claim that
he wished he had never met Grohl, saying: 'That feeling might change if we actually sat down and talked. But that hasn't hap

Welcome to the Letterman YouTube Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. The language may strike you as quaint & flowery, the clothing comically lacey & ornate — but that’s how things were back in this colorful and now bygone era.
William Goldsmith (born July 4, 1972) is an American drummer best known for being the drummer of the Seattle alternative band Sunny Day Real Estate and for his tenure as the drummer of the alternative rock band Foo Fighters. Currently drumming for Brawley Banks and a reunited Sunny Day Real Estate, he has toured with Mike Watt, IQU, and has recorded and played live with many other bands and artists.
Early years
Goldsmith was born in Seattle, Washington to Hugh and Skitty Goldsmith. He began playing drums as a child, after being introduced by his older brother to bands such as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Elvis Costello and the Attractions and Talking Heads. Goldsmith has stated that he wanted to be John Lennon, but also a drummer, and has cited Keith Moon of The Who as his biggest influence on the instrument. During fifth grade, Goldsmith formed his first band, Screaming Hormones. In high school, Goldsmith formed a duo called the 13 with John Atkins, and later formed the hardcore punk band Reason to Hate with his friend Jeremy Enigk, whom he had previously invited to be the bassist for the 13. After Goldsmith graduated from high school, Greg Williamson invited him to the band Positive Greed. Afterwards Goldsmith worked on many ensembles, at times being a member of four bands simultaneously. He also expanded his tastes in music, becoming a fan of post-hardcore bands such as Fugazi, and of Nirvana's debut album Bleach.

Lyrics:
Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
'Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die
Now I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly high."

Lyrics:
All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around then it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost
Come down don't you resist
You have such a delicate wrist
And if I give it a twist
Something to hold when I lose my grip
Will I find something in there
To give me just what I need?
Another reason to bleed
One by one hidden up my sleeve
One by one hidden up my sleeve
Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keeping me down
