Their two albums There Is Nothing Left to Lose and One by One won Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album. On top of their six studio albums, they have also contributed to several movie soundtracks.

David Grohl spent four years as the drummer for Nirvana. Unknown to most of Nirvana's fan base, Grohl gradually wrote a build up stocks of songs that he largely held back from the band for fear of ruining their chemistry.

Grohl has been the key-member of the band and capable of singing and playing almost every instrument but Grohl did not want the Foo Fighters to be a one-man studio project, so he worked to form a band to support his upcoming albums. Initially, former band mate Krist Novoselic was a main candidate for the band, but both became concerned that it might portray Foo Fighters as a rebirth of Nirvana. There were rumors about the disbanding of Seattle-based band Sunny Day Real Estate (SDRE) Grohl drafted SDRE's bass player, Nate Mendel, and drummer, William Goldsmith. Pat Smear from Nirvana was added in the band as a second guitarist, completing the band. The Foo Fighters undertook their first major tour in the spring of 1995, opening for Mike Watt.

Near the end of 2001, the band reconvened to record their fourth album. After spending four months in a Los Angeles studio completing the album, Grohl spent some time helping Queens of the Stone Age complete their 2002 album Songs for the Deaf. Once the Queens of the Stone Age album was finished, Grohl, inspired by the sessions, decided to reconvene the Foo Fighters to rework a few songs on their album. Instead, they re-recorded nearly the entire album in a ten-day stretch at Grohl's studio in Virginia. The final album was released in October of 2002 under the title One by One.

The band's next studio album In Your Honor, released on June 14, 2005. it was a two CD album and Grohl said that the two disc release one full of rock songs, the other featuring acoustic tracks was a perfect memorial for the band's 10th anniversary.

In further support of In Your Honor, the band decided to organize a short acoustic tour for the summer of 2006. The tour included former member Pat Smear, who rejoined the band as an extra guitarist, Petra Haden on violin, Drew Hester on percussion, and Rami Jaffee on piano. While much of the set list focused on In Your Honor's acoustic half, the band also used the opportunity to play lesser-known songs such as Ain't It The Life Floaty, and See You.

The new album, titled Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, was released September 25, 2007. The album's first single, The Pretender, was issued to radio in early August. The second single, Long Road to Ruin is due to be released on November 26, 2007.
