Dave Grohl has hit out at bands who use drums machines and studio techniques which tighten performances, saying it robs drummers of their personality.
The Foo Fighters frontman, who of course drummed for Nirvana (and more recently Them Crooked Vultures) told The Sun how he's fed up of the trickery.
"All that sh-t ruins music these days", he said. "Drum machines work for pop artists but when it comes to rock 'n' roll - don't f--k with the human element."
He explained that this sort of production was the reason he insisted on recording "Wasting Light" in his garage, and that the art of drumming was better in the old days.
"I learnt to play the drums by listening to records", he said.
"I had favourite drummers because of their inconsistencies. Modern production has robbed drummers of personalities and it really p---ed me off."
Foo Fighters are set to play at the iTunes Festival in London on Monday, 11th July.
