im genuinely tempted to get this, they really are prolific singles-writers. hmm.

Solid rock band. Nothing more and nothing less.

Yeah, the Everlong acoustic is unnecessary. It's a greatest hits compilation, so Generator or I'll Stick Around should have taken its place. Or Low

But the Everlong acoustic is the best thing they've ever done so... what, get rid of the amp'd version, or what?

Yeah. They should have dropped the electric version.

but both of those are like the best things this band has written, getting rid of one would make this incomplete.

This needs "I'll Stick Around" badly.

If they're going to put on the acoustic Everlong, they should add the awesome unplugged version of My Hero.

THERE GOES MY HERO
WATCH HIM AS HE GOES

Album Rating: 4.0

Thanks so much for all the feedback, guys!



Anyone remember when Grohl got pissed at McCain for using My Hero in his campaigns?

Yeah I read that on ultimate guitar. Also forgot to say great review David.

Album Rating: 4.0

Thanks, dude!

Didn't Aaron Gillespie play a part on this album? Haha.

Rock solid review DavID. You hit on some great points, if obvious ones. Even on their crap album 'One By One', the singles were good... So a Greatest Hits suits.

One By One was hardly crap, in fact it was better than their last two IMO.

"Crap" may be harsh, but I definitely prefer their last 2. See my reviews, blah, blah, blah.

It probably was crap towards the end, but the Foo Fighters have never had particularly consistent albums, except the colour and the shape.

The second paragraph illustrates how i feel about this band perfectly. I may have to check this out.

One by one is super weak, although the singles were ace. Since I own most of the foo albums I won't be picking up this, although it would be such a strong release.

Think i'll save my money for Them Crooked Vultures, which is coming out this week in Aus, yes yes yes!!!!

great review. I love Long road to ruin.
Too bad they didn't include D.O.A though

Yeah D.O.A is awesome fun.
