The 42-year old says the &#8220;heartbreak&#8221; of Nirvana was partially healed when he started up his now acclaimed rock band.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"intelliTxt\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span>Grohl and co released their seventh studio album &#8216;Wasting Light&#8217; last week, which ended Adele&#8217;s eleven week reign at the top of the UK charts. 5th April 2011 marked the 17th anniversary of Cobain&#8217;s death and Grohl claims that the tragedy inspired him to form Foo Fighters, saying, &#8220;I remember reading an interview with Ian MacKaye, where he was talking about nostalgia and how unproductive it can be. It&#8217;s the reason we started Foo Fighters. &#8230; We started it to get away from the past. After Nirvana ended, it was the one thing healing us from the heartbreak of losing a friend and a band&#8221;. The first six Foo Fighters records were nominated for Grammy Awards and the band have so far picked up three wins. A track on the new record contains the lyric, &#8220;I cannot forgive you, yet&#8221;, which many Nirvana fans have taken as a reference to the late Cobain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"intelliTxt\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span>Grohl, who enlisted the help of Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic for &#8216;Wasting Time&#8217;, says he has modest ambitions for Foo Fighters, saying, &#8220;I&#8217;d love it if everyone knew one Foo Fighters song.
