Foo Fighters

[Electric Pandemic]

'The Color and the Shape', and 'Nothing Left to Lose' are both very good albums full of great songs and catchy hooks. Ever since the acoustic album
things have gone downhill. That big single, 'Road to Ruin' is a great tune but it's the ONLY more than average song on the album.
The best thing Dave's done in ten years is the QOTSA album. Maybe he should take a break for a while and play drums. I don't mean that as an insult in any way- he's an awesome drummer. It would give him time to recoup. How many other artists have that option?

I think their best work was on In Your Honour

[helper300]

Easily one of the best banRAB of the last decade. Each CD seems to get better. Dave Grohl could have easily fallen into Nirvana and Kurt Cobain's shadow, but he didn't. "Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace" is an amazing album, and "Long Road to Ruin" is IMO the best song of the year thus far.

Why is this in album reviews ?

[apithano]

It was released by Nirvana though, I thought,
And Noveselic (sp?) did play the bass on the track

Kurt was not the whole of Nirvana

Back to Foo Fighters:

Anyone know when they will start working on new album?

[dylancarmoney]

I would say it is more of a contractual obligation thing... I really hope it's not otherwise, and I'd highly doubt it anyways... I'm not a Greatest Hits album sorta guy so I won't be buying it.... but I am excited to see what they do next...

[Allisonツ☮]

Grohl is probably a better guitarist (and better at whatever else he plays) than Cobain as well as a better vocalist but until he starts utilizing this I'm not going to say his music's better.

[RBnumber20]

I'm hoping for the contract option because "Wheels" is a terrible song and I don't think its indicitive of their best work.

I do fear that they are moving toward bland, pat glory-rock though. "hero," "best of you," and "wheels" are all kinda that same big, boring, hollow riRAB.

They need a return to form like REM had.

[×צ.LadyJoker.¦××]

Got the new album when it was released on Monday. Excellent effort I think. Both CRAB are awesome especially the acoustic one though, it brings a whole new meaning to the band. It was a risky experiment but they certainly pulled it off. I recommend it to anyone who hasn't bought it yet, great stuff. Opinions?
