    Not only that, but that record was decently priced, shipping was not bad.   Made it an instant purchase for me.

    Shame Shame kind of reminds me of “Sweet Sour” by the Band of Skulls.  I really like the song.

    That new Foos song is even worse than Dance of the Clairvoyants.
    Absolute horse manure.
    After two dire albums this is a make or break album - bad start.

    After a couple of listens, Shame Shame doesn't really do much for me. It just doesn't rock like I expect a Foos song to do. I still welcome a new album and maybe the rest of it will rock a little harder.

    dave said in an interview that this album is a "party record", and while Shame Shame is different than anything they'd ever done before, and isn't exactly indicative of the rest of the album, it has its purpose and has a place on the record (reminding me of DOTC).

    Shame Shame is alright. Kind of strange that they went for a song that features Grohl's singing as much as it does. He ain't the best singer in the world.

    i think he has a fabulous voice for rock. he doesn't have much range, but i think he's a great singer. he can sing soft if it warrants it, and he can scream like the devil if it calls for that too.

    Vinyl is priced reasonable but $6+ shipping to PA. Shipping prices are unreal. I'll probably wait for an amazon listing.

    Wait a second. you think $6 for shipping a record is UNREASONABLE??? jesus i saw that and i was like "sign me up, that's a steal!". i wish getting a vinyl record sent to me from anyone (canada or otherwise) was that cheap

    Woah you think $6 is unreasonable?  It was 14.99 to Canada and that's cheaper than what I've seen other online stores ship to Canada for.  Unfortunately it's starting to cost $20 or more to ship records from the US to Canada.

    Is it common for Dave to sing while chewing gum? 
    I liked that part of the performance on Saturday.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    I like it! :plus_one:
    Me too, I like that it's a little experimental. I've a feeling it will grow in me.

    so i just watched an instagram live with dave and sofia (the girl in the new video), and it got me to first listening to the Million Dollar Demos and then exploring the Foos on discogs....I forgot about all those numbered EP's they kept releasing digitally. i can't find them on itunes. were they ever for purchase, or just spotify playlists? I'm not on spotify, we're an apple family (for better or worse).
