Dave Grohl has been branded a "complete control freak" by his band mate.

The Foo Fighters singer - who was drummer with Nirvana before forming the 'Everlong' rockers - regularly criticises Taylor Hawkins for his technique on the drums when they are rehearsing.

Taylor is quoted as saying: "Dave is a complete control freak. But he's the nicest control freak you ever meet in your life. He tells me what to do but we work off each other as well.

"He's a drummer first and foremost. He's become a great singer and songwriter but he's a drummer first. When we're working together on music, not only do you have one drummer's ideas but you have two of them coming from totally different places."

Despite officially being on a break, Taylor revealed the group have already started planning their next album.

He added: "We've gotten together and minced ideas already. Just basic ideas and we'll probably do that over the next year until we have a log of ideas. We'll take our time and let everybody else enjoy other things - their families and stuff. I'd say maybe by summer we'll get in the studio and start getting serious about a record."
