Probot - Trivia
The album artwork was created by musician Away (Michel Langevin) of Voivod.
The video for the lead single, "Shake Your Blood," features an appearance by 66 women from the SuicideGirls adult entertainment website. In the video, the band is represented with Dave Grohl on drums, Lemmy on lead vocals and bass, and Wino (who sang on the Probot track "The Emerald Law") on lead guitar.
Some of the singers who contributed to the album did not work directly with Grohl; instead, the tapes were shipped from studio to studio until the album was finished. Grohl approached death metal legend Chuck Schuldiner of Death, who was at the time battling brain cancer, to contribute to the project, and even campaigned to raise funds to help Schuldiner pay his medical bills, but Schuldiner succumbed to the disease before any collaboration could happen.
Grohl attempted to get Slayer's lead singer Tom Araya on the album, but he was unable to due to scheduling conflicts. |
