Foo Fighters are set to take a "long break" from music and have warned fans not to expect a new album any time soon.
Frontman Dave Grohl told BBC Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles that the band were set to go on hiatus then return with a new sense of purpose further down the line.
"We've never really taken a long break, I think it's time," he said.
The former Nirvana drummer continued: "After doing Wembley [the band played Wembley Stadium on June 6 and 7] we shouldn't come back there for 10 years because we've played to everybody.
"We're over in the UK every year, every summer, so I think it's time to take a break and come back over when people really miss us."
