Probot

Ice Cold Man watches earth die, Eternal winter takes its reign, Devoid of light and filled with pain.

As I mentioned in Stormcast #2, Probot was a metal side project of Dave Grohl, famously the ex-drummer of Nirvana and frontman of the Foo Fighter. On the album, Grohl fulfilled his dream of teaming up with vocalists from 1980s and 1990s metal bands who influenced his musical tastes while he was growing up.

Each track has a different vocalist, with such notable legends as King Diamond of Mercyful Fate, Tom G. Warrior of Celtic Frost, Lee Dorian of Cathedral and Napalm Death, and the immortal Lemmy of Motörhead. And who can forget the hidden track, with the man himself - Jack Black.

This is a remarkable album crammed full of awesome tracks, with styles ranging from speed metal to doom metal. Highlights include Centuries Of Sin, Shake Your Blood, Big Sky, and Ice Cold Man.
