Get ready, rock fans — the Foo Fighters are back with brand-new music! The band has officially announced that their next single, “Asking For a Friend,” will be released on October 23, 2025.
The news comes after weeks of teasing on social media. Fans have been guessing for days that something big was coming, and now it’s confirmed. Foo Fighters posted a 15-second teaser of the song, featuring Dave Grohl’s powerful vocals and a scream that reminds us why he’s one of rock’s most energetic frontmen.
The band also shared a new photo featuring Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee, and new drummer Ilan Rubin. It’s still unclear if Rubin actually played drums on this new track, but his presence suggests he’s becoming an important part of the group’s future.
The single will be available worldwide at the following times:
Last week, Foo Fighters teased fans with a funny Instagram video showing a parrot sitting on top of their famous logo, with the caption “About to take flight…” It was a clear sign that something new was coming, and now we finally know what it was leading up to.
This new release follows the band’s May single “Today’s Song,” which celebrated their 30th anniversary. It’s not confirmed whether “Asking For a Friend” will be part of a new album or just a one-off release, but either way, fans are thrilled to hear fresh music from the group.
Foo Fighters have had a busy year performing around the world. They played shows in Singapore and Japan, and are now preparing for concerts in Monterrey and Mexico City next month, sharing the stage with Queens of the Stone Age and Jehnny Beth.
After the loss of drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022, Foo Fighters took some time off but came back stronger with their 2023 album But Here We Are, which was filled with emotion and healing. Now, with “Asking For a Friend,” it feels like the band is ready to turn a new page — full of energy, passion, and classic Foo Fighters rock.
So mark your calendars! On October 23, grab your headphones and turn up the volume. If the teaser is any clue, “Asking For a Friend” is going to be loud, powerful, and pure Foo Fighters.
