New albums ok, it seemds to get better with more spins, but this is the hard part of getting older. Very few albums hit you from the get go. The once that hit you over the head on the first listen are few and far between, and when you find them, holy fuck. So many albums took many listens to really appreciate them. I find it harder and harder to find the time to spin records as much as I did in my youth, so if a record doesn't catch me on the first listen or 2, it tends to get put back on the shelf. It makes me wonder how many albums I've done that to, that with more listens might of become a favourite album.Anyways, so far I sort of like the new FF album, seems to grow on me more when I give it another listen. The last record they had that got me from the first listen was Wasting Light. I love that record.0

I feel like a lot of their albums are filled with fill. Their lyrics can bounce from being pretty good, to being Sammy Hagar-cringe worthy. Their stage routine and antics remind me of Spinal Tap, and not for comedic reasons. Dave Grohl overuses the words "mother f****r" and "mother f*****s" and "mother f***ing" during their shows. It's gotten to the point where I can almost predict what he'll say next, based on how "mother f****r" or a variation will fit into the sentence. They also make bad artistic choices. For example, choosing to cover every possible overplayed classic rock song seems boring. Putting out a disco themed novelty record, which includes live versions of their own non-disco tracks seems... ???
I suppose it might sound like I'm trolling or something, but the Foos seem better than this. It's frustrating to see the product, knowing that they could, and have done far better.0 -
dave is just at a point where he's having fun with what he does. at least that's my impression.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0

and I don't think they are uninterested at all. I think they all look like they are having the time of their lives.
mayyybe except this guy: LOL
