I am not a big Foo Fighters fan at all. They have made a few decent tracks but I recently watched this doc and it was a decent watch:

All things said, I actually enjoy the foo fighters. Though from their new singles, i'm disappointed with their new album.

In Your Honor is great.

Too bad I can't say the same for the new one Wasting Light - pretty much generic garage rock.

Well the latest album WAS recorded in a gargage. Dave Grohl's to be exact. Not that I've heard it.

Really, you liked "In Your Honor"? I might have to give it another spin but I remember it being average and not deserving to be a double album.

Anyone else like In Your Honor?

(Also, is Wasting Light worth picking up or is it trash like One By One?)

sure - the harder edged songs hit the spot, the softer songs are soothing

i haven't heard One for One, but WL is pretty boring

Yeah, I have the 2 disc european version of One By One. Don't even bother with it because it blows. I bought it because I liked All My Life and Times Like These. Turns out, those were the only good songs.

Besides their debut I think One by One was their best effort. In your honor kinda sucked to me. The new album is pretty average. I like the sound quality just fine being recorded in his garage, but it lacks enough quality songs.
