Ahead of their return to Australia later this year, the Foo Fighters have received the superhero treatment, with a new Marvel-inspired artwork unveiled to celebrate the band’s upcoming show at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees join Ed Sheeran in being enshrined with bespoke art at Marvel Stadium. The artwork, by Australian artist Wayne Nichols, sees one of the most beloved rock bands of all time clash with the iconic Guardians of the Galaxy in a galactic showdown.
The artwork has been brought to life as a limited-time four-metre mural and includes tributes to late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins and Mushroom’s Michael Gudinski. The first display of the mural will go ahead this Thursday at the Hawthorn vs St Kilda game before the band’s show there on November 14th.
The tour comes in support of their new album, Your Favorite Toy, which Rolling Stone gave a four-star review of. “The band’s 12th album, Your Favorite Toy, is the next chapter in that story of fighting through grief and looking forward,” it reads.
“Yet where its predecessor often had a reflective tone, their latest is about high-energy garage-rock catharsis, getting in a room and blasting away and letting the noise be your guide.”
