There would be far less shrines to Kurt Cobain without Dave's very fundamental (and vastly under-appreciated) contribution to Nirvana.

Foo Fighters are horrible!

Nate's (the bass player) old band Sunny Day Real Estate are amazing!

"Still" and "Everlong" - they just never came out with any songs that could match those. I love them both.  There have been derivative versions of those two, and that tends to make matters worse.  I have always felt they are capable of much more than those two songs, but it probably won't materialize.  At least it hasn't, IMO.  Keep fighting, fighters of foo.

I thought Foo was CIA lingo about Soviet propaganda.  Oh well.  Thank you for setting this straight.

loving the foos here. The aucoustic "soft side" CD In your Honor has 10 like this. Good getting in the mood muzak. Then, when your work is done with the girl, you can move on to the hard rock side of In Your Honor, drink some beer and get in a fight! Good stuff.

I don't normally do the Foos, but this is stopping me in my tracks. I'm still expecting a right mauling when the drums really kick in though!

Obviously, you thought wrong. You should have a listen to the live, acoustic album, "Skin & Bones". Dave Grohl can write in any genre.

Sounds like these guys try real hard to create some good music, and I like that...but it still seems to come a little short of something really compelling where I'd want to buy their stuff and listen to a full albums worth.  The emotions there, but they dont seem to be saying anything that I need to hear.

I am a big fan of the FF, however, I think this album is the worst.
They have some jewels like "The Color and the Shape" or " Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace" which are absolutely GREAT!!

Sounds lame but the meaning of the word is a lot cooler than it sounds. This coming from a guy who cringes every time he sees "foo" and "bar" in programming examples.
