Editorial Review:
It's likely that a decade after its debut record this band now has fans who might ask, "You mean Dave Grohl was in a band before the Foo Fighters?" But they, or any Foo followers who pine for the increasingly refined vocals and polished pop-punk uniformity of the first four albums, will swallow this one whole--or at least half. For as much as vocalist/bandleader Grohl and Co. mix a similar concoction on the 20-song double CD, they manage to agitate the formula ever so slightly. Disc one follows the Foo's classic sonic blueprint: lip-smacking melodies and enigmatic lyrics, double-barrel guitars and drums that attack. But songs take a gentle turn on the second CD, showcasing Grohl's underrated vocals amidst a high-energy ensemble of acoustic guitars, piano and mandolin (by studio guest John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin). Singing, not shouting, Grohl flips potential teen-rock anthems like "Miracle" and "Cold Day in the Sun" (with drummer Taylor Hawkins handling lead vocals) into impending adult-oriented radio staples and, 11 years after Nirvana, the Foo Fighters may finally have their triumph. --Scott Holter

Rating:  - and im on the mend my friend.
brilliant!! unsurpassable by Foo's standards. this CD didnt quickly become a favorite of mine until i found myself constantly grabbing it if i was going somewhere for a long drive or if it was nice out. i dunno why i just really liked it.
disk 2 stayed in its case for more than a year before i listened to it after the first time i got it. i remember thinking, ok this is good, better than i remembered and then after a few spins within a few days it hit me that it was actually AWESOME, ... Read More
Rating:  - Warning...Skip second album
I was impressed with the first disc and disappointed with the second disc. Also, there were very few b-sides, but that's neither here nor there. I don't know, if Dave wanted to release some slow stuff then he should have released a solo album of content from the second disc. But like I said, first disc, hard-hitting, epic and a return to full form.
Rating: - I love Foo Fighters...and this cd might be my favorite!
Ok, so the copyright protection thing sucks...this is true...intellectual property is a hot issue right now and probably won't be resolved anytime soon. I have it on my computer..it worked just fine...so there...
But just because I don't agree with copyright laws doesn't mean I am going to deny myself the bliss and wonder of the music of Foo Fighters. It would be like cutting off your nose to spite your face. The music moves me and every song is wonderful! I especially like the second album ... Read More
Rating: - Great Album, Once You Circumvent the Copy Protection
Hold down the SHIFT key the first time you insert they disc into your computer's cd drive, then immediately rip it to your hard drive, and that will prevent the obnoxious auto-protect software from auto-installing on your computer.
The album was amazing, a new, charged-up sound for the band that was refreshing to an old fan's ears. The first disc, the hard-hitting side, is solid from start to finish. It's too bad that "Best of You" was acutely overplayed on the radio; songs like "No Way ... Read More
