Think that's enough rock for one person? Nah. He's also one-third of rock supergroup Them Crooked Vultures, along with QOTSA singer John Homme and Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones. In addition to the Foo Fighters greatest hits and a previously-unreleased Nirvana live album, out now, Them Crooked Vultures' debut album hits stores Nov. 17.
