Probot by Probot

Pros: A great idea, wonderfully achieved. Lemmy & Wino's tracks.
Cons: A little flat in places.

My reason for checking out Probot was simple – I liked the concept and I really, really dig one of the performers on the album. Honestly, I could mostly care less about Dave Grohl and some of the singers featured on Probot and even though I ...

Pros: intense heavy metal with no nu-metal leanings
Cons: a couple of weaker tracks

If only every rocker's side project was this interesting and worthy of my time. That was the first thought that went through my head after giving a few listens to Dave Grohl's heavy metal project he dubbed Probot. Released back in ...

Pros: A wonderful pet project from a fan's worshipful side. Features tons of metal greats!
Cons: A few of the songs bring the album down a bit.
