Foo Fighters Sessions: Exhausted ( 1992-1993 Laundry Room Studios, Seattle, WA ) possible been on Nirvana's final record with alone and easy target
I'd told Kurt I was recording and he said, 'Oh, I wanna hear it, bring it by.' He was sitting in the bath-tub with a walkman on, listening to the song, and when the tape ended, he took the headphones off and kissed me and said, 'Oh, finally, now I don't have to be the only songwriter in the band!' I said, 'No, no, no, I think we're doing just fine with your songs.
Tracklist:01 - Times Like These
02 - The Feast and the Famine
03 - Rope
04 - Congregation
05 - What Did I Do?/God As My Witness (With Gary Clark Jr.)
06 - Tuff Enuff (Fabulous Thunderbirds Cover With Jimmy Vaughan & Gary Clark Jr.)

The Colour and The Shape is one the best full albums of 90's. At least in top 15. It's an album you don't have to skip a track.

Never been a big Foo Fighters fan. I do enjoy disc 1 of In Your Honor and some other songs. Saw them on the Weezer/ Foo Fighters co headlining tour and thought they sounded pretty good live. They are just a little unforgettable to me outside of Everlong.

Going to see them at Pinkpop in June and again at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam in November. I'm not a superfan, but I do like most of their songs and Dave Grohl is one of the coolest rockstars to walk on this planet right now.

Early Foo Fighters stuff was good.
Just imagine if stuff like 'Exhausted' had ended up as Nirvana tune though ?
Fuck. Just imagine that song with a Cobain vocal.
Bah. It is so irritating to think what might have been.
Even though relationships weren't great late on in Nirvana Kurt did still put out
Marigold as a Bside , he still used Daves riff for Scentless Apprentice.
There was an early written setlist for Unplugged by Kurt and Marigold was on it.
He actually was opening to Dave writing a bit.

Love this band. It might be a bit cliche but Everlong might just be my favourite song ever written. It's just perfect.
Also gave the new EP a listen, it was ok but Im glad none of the tracks made it on Sonic Highways or the next album, but some nice little rock numbers on there.

Saw them 3 weeks ago and it was one of the best bands I've ever seen live, and I've seen some greats. Dave is such a boss.
Everlong is my favourite song of theirs and they opened with it. Their acoustic recording of Everlong is great too.

Too American. Too generic. Dislike.

I’m split with this band; I think some of their songs are really good especially learn to fly, everlong, monkey wrench, I fell into etc. Great band but……….. they seem really corporate to me. About as rock n roll as a lettuce. It just seems forced. Big riffs, anthemic choruses but lacking in soul. Nirvana were a real band but Foo fighters seem a diluted version.
And was totally put off by Dave’s stance on only playing to crowds that had been cvd vxd. Another sign he’s a corporate sell out. And his terrible anti conspiracy song with jagger🤦🏻♂️
I went to see them play 2 nights in a row (like the band but only went coz it was a local gig) and I noticed he said EXACTLY the same things between songs, exactly the same jokes etc which again is a sign to me he’s false.
But he’s obviously an amazing drummer and “everything’s electric” is my favourite LG song so kudos to him for that. It’s a shame the other things put me off him. I don’t think Noel likes him much TBH. I think Liam likes him more (and liked Taylor)

I like The Foo Fighters but I don't like everything they've done though.

I don’t think Noel likes him much TBH. I think Liam likes him more (and liked Taylor) There's Foo Fighters pre and post There is Nothing else to lose. The first 3 records sounds very fresh, honest. Then they began to be what you are saying. Maybe one by one still has a bit of that magic and i really like the risk of the double album, the acoustic side is nice, but the electric one not so much. I would never go to one of their concert though, too many "here we go" for me. apparently Grohl is a bit of a false dude since he cheated hehe. But hey, dont trust rock n roll stars... |

Went to see them in Amsterdam in 2015, amazing! But they always remind me of Green Day. About the chat between songs: many artists do this, even Noel. |
