I know damn sure that Lithium and Alt Nation on Sirius/XM need to take a break from them. Seriously Alt Nation: Best of You? That's alternative? Really?

Dave,

During your hiatus, please listen to this repeatedly:

And if on the next Foo's album you cover Black Betty, I will hunt you down and personally kick you in the taint.

I don't like the band that much. But I do respect him going away when he knows he should vs. a d-bag like Bono saying rock is dead b/c their latest album has shiaty sales.

 
Ni!

And they were right.

"the color and the shape" is indeed a masterpiece! i really love foo fighters, but that and "there is nothing left to lose" are my favorites of theirs

Hopefully (insert crappy band here) takes a hint and follows suit

Dear Dave Grohl,

Everything you've ever done outside of the Foo Fighters is awesome. Hopefully you've made enough money doing that to now make more cool stuff instead.

Nothing Left to Loose
has grown on me. For some reason I avoided it for years thinking it was just Foo's Light, but Headwires is a great song.

I've always liked the Foo Fighters more than I should given my tastes that reject most everything punk and post it. Kind of sad news, "Colour" and "Echoes" are really good albums and the rest have at least one great song each.

This Vulture thing seems promising though. Dave belongs behind a kit anyway.

Just as a side note, Them Crooked Vultures released a free single for download before their album comes out (Nov 17th). It's called 'Mind Eraser No Chaser' and you can get it on Itunes for free

or you can use megaupload

The Foo's rock...every album is pretty good stuff. Some of their stuff took a bit to grow on me, but their albums are good a couple are great. I'll eagerly await their next release. TCV might be awesome as well....only heard 1 song & we'll see how that works. That is all.

Works for me, I always like hearing Dave on the drums. It's obvious he's just a guy that likes to play, if you can find it, check out the clip of him backing John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page on drums covering some Zeppelin songs during the Foo Fighter Live At Wembley Stadium show.

I thought it was a beer commercial.

I like Foo Fighters, but that song sucks.

15 years of pretty much consistent popularity is a hell of a run.

i have not rtfa. i read a different very short interview with him, though, about the hiatus. he said he's surprised they've been together 15 years, let alone so successful the whole time. he says they put their all into every album with the thought it could be their last
