Dave Grohl will re-join Queens of the Stone Age to drum on their new album.
Frontman, Josh Homme, revealed the news in an interview with Zane Lowe on BBC Radio 1 last night.
Homme said: "[Grohl] and I have this wonderful musical relationship which we don't have with other people. It's a very cool and comfortable position."
Shortly after the band also posted a picture on their Twitter that showed the words 'DAVE DRUMS' written on a studio mixing desk. Check it out below.
The former Nirvana drummer previously played with the band on their 2002 record 'Songs for the Deaf'.
The album is considered as one of the band's greatest pieces of work, and features singles including 'No One Knows' and 'Go With the Flow'.

And Grohl has since collaborated with Queens of the Stone Age frontman, Josh Homme, when they set up 'supergroup' Them Crooked Vultures.
The 2009 project also featured Led Zeppelin bassist, John Paul Jones.
The new album will be Queens of the Stone Age's first since 2007's 'Era Vulgaris'.
Yesterday the rockers were also unveiled as one of the latest bookings for next year's Download Festival at Derbyshire's Donington Park.
They will join headliners Slipknot, Iron Maiden, and Rammstein at the festival which takes place 14-16 June next year.
It is as yet unclear whether Grohl will become the band's permanent drummer. The Foo Fighters man has also had short-lived guest appearances with The Prodigy, Nine Inch Nails, and Juliette and the Licks.
But the news is likely to excite those with tickets for download. Following the release of 'Songs for the Deaf', Grohl joined Queens of the Stone Age for a triumphant set on Glastonbury's Other stage in 2002.
Last month Grohl denied rumours that Foo Fighters had split. But he did admit the stadium-rockers were on an indefinite break after 2011's 'Wasting Light' album.
