This is my favourite Foo flavor. Loud ass guitars combined with a melodic and fragile voice. It's great to see the Foos evolve but sometimes I wish they could just come back to this formula. That mix of power and weakness is pretty damn empowering.

I think you understand... but wanting a favorite musician to do the same thing in his 40's or 50's is kind of silly. Are you still doing the same stuff with the same idiots two or three decades later? No. Bands change love the change or find a new band you love. Foos have been consistently ROCKERS and have gone through a few sub-genres... they are what I like a perfect blend of punk/metal/pop. I like the song writing and composition... most of you do as well you just dont know it.

Just imagine what Dave is going through here. Just a year ago, his good friend committed suicide, his music career in limbo, he decides to put down the sticks to go on and perform every instrument and record an album for a new band, then hire a group of guys to learn the new songs, then take the job of lead vocals and guitar and go on tour, all this at 25 years old. Dave is an incredible musician and person!
