Probot - Shake Your Blood



Probot is a musical project masterminded by Dave Grohl.

On the album, Grohl fulfilled his dream of teaming up with heavy metal vocalists from 1980s and 1990s metal bands who influenced his musical tastes while he was growing up.

Similar to 1995's Foo Fighters, Grohl wrote all of the music and performed most of the instrumentation. Additional lead guitar work on the album is performed by Kim Thayil (ex-Soundgarden guitarist).

Each track on the album features a different lead singer including Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead who features on this video clip here entilted "Shake your Blood". Some of the singers who contributed to the album did not work directly with Grohl; instead, the tapes were shipped from studio to studio until the album was finished. Grohl approached death metal legend Chuck Schuldiner, who was at the time battling brain cancer, to contribute to the project, and even campaigned to raise funds to help Schuldiner pay his medical bills, but Schuldiner succumbed to the disease before any collaboration could happen.

Grohl also attempted to get Slayer's lead singer Tom Araya on the album, but he was unable to due to scheduling conflicts.

The video here features an appearance by 66 women from the SuicideGirls adult entertainment website. It also features Wino on guitar & Lemmy on bass and vocals.
