It's just modern rock for the masses, accessible rock for those who only have a passing interest in music.
I have to disagree with you 110% on that last statement. I love music, and I love the Foo Fighters. Sure it might be what you call "generic" rock. But I think they are awesome and far from generic. When I think of generic rock bands, I think of bands like Three Days Grace, Sick Puppies, Creed etc.

I'm no musician and I don't claim to be an expert in music or musical theory. So the members of this board might view me as "Musically retarded".
