Recently, I began watching clips from Sound City, a documentary about the history of the Sound City recording studio in Los Angeles, where some of the greatest rock albums of all time were perfected and recorded. The primary focus of the film features Dave Grohl and his journey regarding the studio after it closed in 2011 and he purchased a few pieces of equipment from it.

I loved this documentary as a kid and it had a compilation record featuring artists such as Grohl, Trent Reznor, Josh Homme, Paul McCartney, Corey Taylor, Stevie Nicks, Rick Springfield, and many other notable names. It’s a solid compilation record, and one of my favorite tracks is Mantra, a long crescendo piece with Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, and Trent Reznor. If you haven’t seen it already, give it a viewing or two.
