Three years after the release of Wasting Light, Foo Fighters have officially stated the birth of their eighth studio effort, Sonic Highways, which is set to be released on November 10, 2014.

True to its name, the band recorded the songs as they travelled through different cities. Each song gives way to a guest musician who hails from the city where the song was recorded in.
