Foo Fighters have unveiled a gory zombie apocalypse video for their new single 'Spit Shine,' written and directed by frontman Dave Grohl. The clip, from their latest album Your Favorite Toy, depicts the band performing amid a bloody zombie attack on concertgoers. Grohl's daughter Harper handled casting and appears in the video.
The music video for 'Spit Shine' opens with an emergency alert warning of a viral outbreak, before cutting to the band in crisp white outfits playing to a similarly dressed crowd in front of a Lemmy mural. Zombies soon overrun the venue, launching a massacre with eaten innards and splattered blood, while the mosh pit continues unabated. By the end, the Foo Fighters are covered in gore as they perform. Casting was led by Dave Grohl's daughter Harper, who also stars in the video. Grohl, a noted horror fan, previously starred in the 2022 Foo Fighters film Studio 666. 'Spit Shine' follows singles like 'Asking For A Friend,' 'Of All People,' and 'Caught In The Echo' from the band's 12th studio album Your Favorite Toy, released last week. NME awarded the record 3.5 stars, praising Grohl's rediscovered vocal roar on tracks like 'Child Actor' but noting throwaway lyricism elsewhere. The band recently performed 'Caught In The Echo' and 'Child Actor' on Saturday Night Live UK, appeared in a sketch with host Nicola Coughlan and Jimmy Fallon, and surprised fans at a London album launch listening party. Foo Fighters are set to begin a European stadium tour in June, including two nights at Liverpool's Anfield Stadium, followed by North American dates starting August 4 in Toronto and wrapping September 26 in Las Vegas. They have also announced an Australian and New Zealand tour for late 2026 and early 2027.
