"Dave Grohl or Bob Segar... seriously"


The Foo Fighters NEW album "Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace" dropped today.
I listened to the preview online over the last few days. Here's my review:

1. The Pretender - 10 of 10 (Best song on the album - hard rocking goodness)
2. Let It Die - 8 of 10 (Almost hypnotic, then kicks into a jam
3. Erase/Replace - 7 of 10 ( Catchy guitar & drum riffs)
4. Long Road To Ruin - 8 of 10 (Heard it live & it's a great song - definitely a single)
5. Come Alive - 7 of 10
6. Stranger Things Have Happened - 7 of 10 (Mellow but a nice feel to it)
7. Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make-Up Is Running) - 9 of 10
8. Summer's End - 6 of 10 (country feel - "West Virginia country side")
9. Ballad Of The Beaconsfield Miners - 6 of 10 (another country feel)
10. Statues - 7 of 10 (late 60's beatles - Dave on Piano I think)
11. But, Honestly - 6 of 10 (ehhh... not my favorite)
12. Home - 9 of 10 (Saw Dave perform it live on the piano - beautiful & awesome!!)

Bonus track
Once & For All (Demo) - 8 of 10

Online Exclusive (through Apple)
Seda - 6 of 10


Over Rating: 7.5

I do feel like it's a good solid album, that flows nicely.
Dave mixes it up a little, especially learning to play piano.
Looking forward to seeing them live a couple more times in
the next 12 months.
