Oh man. Wasting Light

I've been listening to this new Foo Fighters album almost all day. Where do I start on how fucking great this album is?

I guess I should start at the beginning.

Here's the opening 30 seconds of Bridge Burning which is the first 30 seconds of the album. If that doesn't blow you away you need to re-evaluate yourself.

From there it goes to Rope which is classic Foo. In the vain of Learn to Fly or Breakout. Dear Rosemary is an outstanding song featuring Bob Mould on vocals.

White Limo is unlike anything the Foo Fighters have ever recorded. It's damn near metal and the video has Lemmy in it which is always great.

Arlandria is probably the best song on the album. Words cannot describe how good it is. You just have to listen to it.

These Days is a powerful current events ballad.

One of the biggest songs on the album is I Should Have Known. It's the reunion of The Grohl and Krist Novoselic. Which is a long time coming. 


This album proves to me that rock n roll is still alive and kicking and no amount of shitty pop music will ever kill it. 


9.5/10

    Ahh I need to get more into the Foo Fighers. I love the stuff I've heard, but I haven't delved into their music as much as I want to.

    I feel like I'm going to get flamed horribly, but I first heard the Foo Fighters on Guitar Hero II (The series was still good then!)

    Oh man I totally forgot about getting the album. It's physically hurts me that people out there in the world are listening to it and i'm not one of them. Hopefully pat smear will make a good addition, nice to see him back.
