'''Probot''' was a [[heavy metal music|heavy metal]] recording project led by American musician [[Dave Grohl]], as a [[side project]] from his primary group [[Foo Fighters]]. The album was released in February 2004 by [[Southern Lord Records]]. 

Described by Grohl as "a [[death metal]] ''[[Supernatural (Santana album)|Supernatural]]''", the album mixes instrumentals recorded mainly by Grohl, along with various metal singers whom the musician admired.

The album featured two [[single (music)|single]]s, entitled "Centuries of Sin" backed with "The Emerald Law", and "Shake Your Blood" for which a music video was also released. Critical reception was mixed to positive, and the album was a modest commercial success globally.

==Background==
After years of popularity in the [[alternative rock]] scene, Dave Grohl wanted to express his longtime passion for heavy metal music. He mentioned the catalyst of the experience being during the first leg of the tour in support of the [[Foo Fighters]] album ''[[There Is Nothing Left to Lose]]'' (1999), with the mellower songs making him think about the heavier bands he used to listen to. 

Following the tour, Grohl went to his house in [[Alexandria, Virginia]], to record some heavier songs in his home studio Studio 606 with [[Adam Kasper]]. Grohl would play with his [[Gibson Explorer]] through a small [[Peavey Electronics|Peavey]] amp as he watched TV with Kasper, and once he got a [[guitar riff|riff]] that interested him, he would bring Kasper along to the basement, recording a drum arrangement followed by bass and guitar.<ref name=gw>[http://www.fooarchive.com/features/guitarworld04.htm Man of Steel]</ref> Each [[instrumental]] would take about 45 minutes to complete. Grohl said that he did not intend to make an album out of the recordings – "I didn’t even call them songs because they were bare instrumentals with no intention of putting vocals on them and no direction as an actual song."<ref name=ew>{{cite web |title=Building The Perfect Probot |website=[[Entertainment Weekly]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180824135143/https://ew.com/article/2004/02/13/building-perfect-probot/ |archive-date=2018-08-24 |url-status=live |url=http://www.ew.com/article/2004/02/13/building-perfect-probot}}</ref>  After four days of recording, Grohl and Kasper had done seven tracks, with Grohl making some copies out of the master tape before labeling it Probot to distinguish from the Foo Fighters' work.<ref name=gw/>

[[File:Dave grohl modified.jpg|thumb|upright|left|[[Dave Grohl]] played the majority of instruments on the album, including all of the drum tracks.]]
Some time later, inspired by the [[Santana (band)|Santana]] album ''[[Supernatural (Santana album)|Supernatural]]'', Grohl decided to attempt collaborations with singers he had idolized.<ref name=mtv>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150501085717/http://www.mtv.com/news/1438589/dave-grohl-preps-a-death-metal-supernatural-with-probot/ Dave Grohl Preps A ‘Death Metal Supernatural‘ With Probot]</ref> He came up with "my wish list of all of my favorite singers from this era which is '82 to '89 [[underground music|underground]] metal, and all the bands I listened to at the time: [[Eric Wagner]] from [[Trouble (band)|Trouble]], [[Denis Bélanger|Snake]] from [[Voivod (band)|Voivod]], [[Conrad Lant|Cronos]] [from [[Venom (band)|Venom]]], [[Lemmy]] and [[Scott Weinrich|Wino]]," and started contacting the musicians,<ref name=rs/> some of whom were reached by Grohl's friend [[Matt Sweeney]] given the Foo Fighters had restarted their tour.<ref name=gw/> Grohl feared his fame built out of being "a stupid, middle-of-the-road, alternative-rock idiot" could drive the metal singers away, but many agreed immediately.<ref name=mtv/> Cronos would later explain that "I'm open for everything. And Dave's cool," detailing that Grohl's email opened with "a real fan letter" where he mentioned his longtime appreciation of Venom, and then explained about his idea of a metal album with all his metal heroes "to get something off his chest."<ref name=cronos>[http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/venom-singer-comments-on-probot-project-this-was-heavy-shit/#v5g5GlmYxmAUy8WW.99 VENOM Singer Comments On PROBOT Project: 'This Was Heavy Shit!']</ref>

Seeing the positive response, Grohl brought Kasper and Sweeney back to do five more instrumental tracks and round out the project.<ref name=mtv/> According to Grohl, the songs sent to Eric Wagner and [[King Diamond]] had been previously done for [[Ozzy Osbourne]] as he was contacted to write for the then-upcoming ''[[Down to Earth (Ozzy Osbourne album)|Down to Earth]]'', but when Osbourne's label did not respond, he repurposed them for Probot.<ref name=ozzy>{{Cite web|url=http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/dave-grohl-responds-to-zakk-wylde-s-threat/|title=DAVE GROHL Responds to ZAKK WYLDE's Threat|date=11 February 2004}}</ref> Sweeney would organize the project as Grohl toured with the Foo Fighters, getting vocalists on board and organizing tracks.<ref>[http://www.fooarchive.com/features/terrorizer04.htm Dave Grohl's League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen]</ref> Then the demo tapes were sent to the singers, each of whom was asked to come up with lyrics, record them and then title the song.<ref>[https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/dave-grohl-readies-metal-side-project-20001109#ixzz3XaNTZaY8 Dave Grohl Readies Metal Side Project], Rolling Stone</ref> Cronos detailed he wrote three different versions of the song so Grohl could choose one.<ref name=cronos/>

==Production and style==
{{Tall image|Probot guitarists.jpg|165|693|From top to bottom: [[Kim Thayil]] and [[Matt Sweeney]] played additional guitar parts on the album. [[Conrad Lant|Cronos]] and [[Lemmy]] played bass guitar on the songs they sang, while [[Scott Weinrich|Wino]] and [[Jack Black]] played guitar on the tracks on which they sang.}}
On the album, Grohl teamed up with heavy metal vocalists from 1980s and 1990s bands who influenced his musical tastes while he was growing up. Similar to 1995's ''[[Foo Fighters (album)|Foo Fighters]]'', Grohl wrote all of the music and performed most of the instrumentation. Each track on the album features a different lead singer including [[Lemmy]], [[Max Cavalera]], [[King Diamond]] and [[Tom Warrior]]. Grohl described the sequencing as "like a compilation tape that I would have made as a kid."<ref name=bill>[https://books.google.com/books?id=hA8EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA19 DIY Spirit Led Grohl's Probot to Indie Label],  Billboard</ref>

Only Lemmy and Wino visited Studio 606 to record, with all the others sending tapes from studio to studio until the album was finished. [[Soundgarden]] guitarist [[Kim Thayil]] plays additional guitar on two tracks thanks to Kasper, who had brought the Probot tapes to Seattle and they attracted Thayil's interest. Grohl was pleased with the addition as Thayil had more experience with [[lead guitar]]s, while Grohl was "more about the [[riff]] and the [[rhythm guitar|rhythm]]".<ref name=gw/> A bonus track titled "I Am The Warlock" was provided by comedian/actor/musician [[Jack Black (actor)|Jack Black]]. According to Black, who described the song as "a homage to '[[Iron Man (song)|Iron Man]].'" after Grohl approached him regarding writing lyrics, Black's wife [[Tanya Haden]] suggested "it should be about a fucked up relationship," so Black made it about a [[Magician (fantasy)|warlock]].<ref>[http://www.fooarchive.com/probot/probot_jbkerrang.jpg Black and Grohl: Back together]</ref>

Grohl also approached [[death metal]] legend [[Chuck Schuldiner]] of [[Death (metal band)|Death]] to contribute to Probot. However, Schuldiner was struggling with [[brain cancer]] and was unable to be involved despite the efforts of Grohl and others to raise funds for his medical treatment.<ref>[{{BillboardURLbyName|artist=chuck schuldiner|bio=true}} ''Chuck Schuldiner: Biography'', Billboard.com], (retrieved February 18, 2011)</ref> Grohl also attempted to get [[Slayer]]'s lead singer [[Tom Araya]] on the album, but scheduling conflicts prevented collaboration.<ref>[http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/dave-grohl-explains-tom-araya-s-absence-from-probot-cd/ ''Dave Grohl Explains Tom Araya's Absence From Probot CD''] Jan. 11, 2004 [[Blabbermouth.net]]</ref> Grohl subsequently invited [[Kurt Brecht]] from [[Dirty Rotten Imbeciles|D.R.I.]]<ref name=visions>[http://www.fooarchive.com/features/visionsprobot03.htm The Fan Has Won]</ref> Grohl mentioned he and Sweeney had discussed and considered a lot of different singers, including the retired Jeff Becerra of [[Possessed (band)|Possessed]], [[Chuck Billy]] from [[Testament (band)|Testament]], [[Pantera]]'s [[Phil Anselmo]], and the vocalists from [[Kreator]], [[Destruction (band)|Destruction]], [[Hirax]] and [[Candlemass (band)|Candlemass]].<ref name=ozzy/> Sweeney vetoed [[Unleashed (band)|Unleashed]]'s Johnny Hedlund, who at the time was rumored to be a [[Nazism|Nazi]] sympathizer.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/unleashed-we-are-not-nazi-sympathizers/|title=UNLEASHED: We Are Not Nazi Sympathizers!|date=2002-10-23|work=BLABBERMOUTH.NET|access-date=2017-08-01|language=en-US}}</ref>

In a 2007 interview for ''[[Guitar World]]'' magazine, Grohl was asked about the future of Probot. He explained that the idea behind Probot had been successfully realized and he doubted it would continue in any form.<ref>{{cite journal|date=December 2007|title=Dear Guitar Hero|journal=Guitar World|publisher=Future US|volume=28|issue=12|pages=78|issn=1045-6295}}</ref>

==Release==
Despite Grohl's label Roswell having a deal with [[RCA Records]], he knew such an unorthodox project featuring [[cult following|cult]] musicians of the past would not be easily accepted by [[major label]]s. RCA was interested at first, but later Grohl decided to follow the spirit of the original bands "on independent, punk-rock [[DIY ethic|do it yourself]] [[Independent record label|labels]]."<ref name=bill/> So Grohl's friend [[Pete Stahl]], with whom he had played in [[Scream (band)|Scream]] and was then in the band [[Goatsnake]], suggested the label of his bandmate [[Greg Anderson (guitarist)|Greg Anderson]], the smaller metal-based [[Southern Lord Records]].<ref>[http://www.fooarchive.com/probot/probottimeout.htm Heavy Mettle], ''[[Time Out (magazine)|Time Out]]'' (2004). Retrieved on 2-14-08.</ref>

The album is available as a single CD and a double LP (available on red and black vinyl). Southern Lord released a double A-sided single, "Centuries of Sin/The Emerald Law" in a limited edition of 6,666 on 7" vinyl only. It is available on black, green, red & red/black swirl vinyl, and sold out shortly after release.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.southernlord.com/press/probot/|title = PROBOT – Centuries of Sin}}</ref>  The album artwork was created by musician [[Michel Langevin|Away (Michel Langevin)]] of [[Voivod (band)|Voivod]].<ref name=visions/>

Critical reception to the Probot album was largely positive with few recurring complaints; [[Metacritic]] shows a 72/100 critic rating based on 21 reviews. ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' declared it as "the year's first great metal album," while ''[[Blender (magazine)|Blender]]'' reported, "Unlike similar records... this has a unity of aesthetic purpose, a competitive wallop, even (kind of) a seriousness."

David Browne of ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' gave ''Probot'' a B− rating. He notes, "For a lark, it aims for (and hits) a few bull's-eyes, including the whiplashing 'The Emerald Law' and the [[post-apocalyptic]] death march 'Ice Cold Man'." However, Browne comments how the mystery and thrill of vintage metal bands is "largely gone" with many lyrics on ''Probot'' sounding "more amusing than menacing" and even "unintentionally funny." He sums it up as "lying somewhere between homage and howler."

''Probot'' earned an A rating in [[Stylus Magazine|''Stylus'' magazine]] as well as the title of StylusMagazine.com's Album of the Week for February 8–14, 2004. Scott McKeating's extensive review describes how "Probot balances the grit with the sonic polish without lapsing into [[Metallica]]'s ''[[Metallica (album)|Metallica]]''. This is metal that demands banging, shaking and stamping." He commends the ambition of its overall conception, noting, "Very few [artists] go as far as Grohl and actually create something vital and new in their mid-thirties from their teenage obsessions. . . ''Probot'' is an inspirational record in every sense."

Adrien Begrand of [[PopMatters]] describes it as "One of the coolest ideas for an album in a long time, Grohl has put together a record that not only serves as a sincere tribute to the metal and hardcore bands of his youth, but features all his favorite vocalists as well." He gave a favorable review but heavily discussed Grohl's guitar skills and songwriting as lacking: "The biggest problem on the album is Grohl's complete lack of inventiveness as a guitar player. . . Had Dave Grohl used more guest musicians instead of trying to do everything himself, ''Probot'' would have been much better." Despite these criticisms, Begrand considers it "impossible not to like this album, mistakes and all."

Awarding a 4/5 rating, [[Allmusic]]'s Alex Henderson emphasizes the wide variety of genres featured on ''Probot'' and adds, "Whatever the style of metal that he is embracing, Grohl's drumming is passionate throughout this fine album, which is as rewarding as it is unpredictable."

=="Shake Your Blood"==
Although Grohl recorded the guitar and drums himself, Lemmy performed his own [[Bass guitar|bass]] and wrote the lyrics to "Shake Your Blood". He noted, "I wrote the lyrics in about ten minutes. . . It's rock & roll, you know. It's not one of those complicated things."<ref name=rs/> The song bears strong resemblance to Lemmy's style and was considered "a terrific Motörhead clone" by Adrien Begrand of [[PopMatters]].

The "Shake Your Blood" [[music video]] was filmed in November 2003 and released shortly thereafter. It features an appearance by 66 women from the [[SuicideGirls]] adult entertainment website. The music video also appears on the extras section on the movie SuicideGirls: The First Tour. In the video, the band is represented with Dave Grohl on [[Drum kit|drums]], Lemmy on lead vocals and bass, and [[Scott Weinrich|Wino]] (who sang on the Probot track "The Emerald Law") on lead guitar. Lemmy regarded the performance as "just like a tour in the '60s, when things were a lot more fun."<ref name=rs>Appleford, Steven [https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/dave-grohl-drums-up-probot-20040206 Dave Grohl Drums Up Probot] ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' (February 6, 2004). Retrieved on 2-13-09.</ref>

==Live performances==
[[Foo Fighters]] performed "Shake Your Blood" live with Lemmy at their 2006 [[Hyde Park, London|Hyde Park]] (UK) show, and on June 18, 2011, at Foo Fighters concert in Berlin. "My Tortured Soul" was performed live on ''Headbangers' Ball'' in 2004, with [[Eric Wagner]] on lead vocals, Grohl on drums, Wino on lead guitar, [[Greg Anderson (musician)|Greg Anderson]] (of [[Goatsnake]] and [[Sunn O)))]]) on [[rhythm guitar]], and Foo Fighters producer [[Nick Raskulinecz]] on bass guitar. This performance is available on the compilation album ''[[MTV2 Headbangers Ball, Vol. 2]]''. [[Soulfly]] has also been known to play "Red War" live as recently as 2009.<ref>[http://www.rocksound.tv/news/article/soulfly-stoked-on-forthcoming-uk-tour Soulfly Stoked On Forthcoming UK Tour] RockSound.tv (January 12, 2009).
