I have never been a fan of this band
just always was too poppy for my taste
but holy shit
this song is actually fucking good, and the video is even more awesome as Lemmy is in it...
FOO FIGHTERS are great. Don't fight it because your missing out on rocking out to good tunes bro. I know I sound like a Chode, but that band rules clevohardcore - 2-17-2011 at 11:42 PM
FUCKING AMAZING!BDx13 - 2-17-2011 at 11:58 PM

dave grohl is METAL.
steve, have you heard probot?clevohardcore - 2-18-2011 at 12:08 AM
I am going to see them live no matter what when they tour. BDx13 - 2-18-2011 at 12:18 AM
i've seen the foo two or three times over the past ten years or so. not a fan of stadium shows, but definitely well worth it.clevohardcore - 2-18-2011 at 12:20 AM
BD you were the one who insisted in a thread for me to check em out. I finally did and now they are up there as one of my favorite fucking bands.
Amazing tunes. lifeisabitch - 2-18-2011 at 12:23 AM
I know he's metal, I've heard some probot and it's okay
but the foo's were too pop for my liking
to radio friendlyBDx13 - 2-18-2011 at 12:27 AM
see, clevo, making youz work hard!
you're right, steve, it's definitely radio friendly.
but the metal is right there, ready to bust out at any moment!lifeisabitch - 2-18-2011 at 12:29 AM
this song is almost more queens of the stoneageSix66Mike - 2-18-2011 at 01:53 AM
Dave Grohl rules. I still need to hear Probot & this new song, will check when I get home.mattybar - 2-18-2011 at 05:44 AM
Dave Grohl is a definitely good people. He randomly showed up at a bar a bunch of us were drinking at in London and was totally happy to hang out and
shoot the shit for a good while as well as posing for photos with passers by every 5 minutes.
One of my friends in such a state she actually threw up on his shoes and was still cool about it haha
You might wanna check out Torche if you like Foo Fighters as they are often compared to them.
I love Torche. Totally poppy but very heavy too.XHonusWagnerX - 2-18-2011 at 07:53 AM
I think the Probot record is amazing and the whole concept of him writing songs for his favorite bands, playing all the instruments and then having
the singer of those bands sing them is awesome!
You can listen to that record and its like a compilation. He literally sat down and wrote a Sepultura song, a DRI song, a King Diamond song, a
Motorhead song etc....Spoiler - 2-18-2011 at 07:59 PM
I've always kinda dug the Foo Fighters,just good catchy rock n roll songs. I just hate that mentos commercial that used their song....and I hate that
song because of it.BDx13 - 2-19-2011 at 08:52 AM
i don't think the song was ever actually used IN a mentos commercial, was it?
their video for the song was a parody OF the mentos commercials, though.
the characters in the video were all eating FOOTOS, The Fresh Fighter!

QOSA tix for Philly go on sale tomorrow BDJawnDiablo - 2-19-2011 at 09:48 AM
damn that song and especially the video ruled.....
3 thumbs up for Lemmy contentclevohardcore - 2-19-2011 at 12:05 PM
I keep going back and checking it out. Good stuff.Discipline - 2-19-2011 at 01:01 PM
I liked seeing Lemmy in the video, but I've got no love for that song.XHonusWagnerX - 2-19-2011 at 01:28 PM
the new FF album is suposed to be all rock/metal like that. no balladstireironsaint - 2-21-2011 at 01:57 AM
Lemmy was the only thing good about that and even his presence couldn't get me all the way through that. Grohl is a talented musician and all that,
but this stuff is definitely NOT for me.3rdDistrict - 2-21-2011 at 07:29 AM
used to see dave a lot around dc
at first he kind of had a holier then thou attitude, but the next couple of times he was actually chilling with the p0oNx and being cool
i think its real cool that Skeeter Thompson (from SCREAM) is subbing in on bass. Dave doesnt forget his roots or his old friends.newbreedbrian - 2-21-2011 at 04:55 PM

Agreed. Dave seems like a pretty down to earth guy, likes good music, and is more than capable of playing music I like but I don't understand this
band at all. Boring, bland pop music. No thanks.clevohardcore - 2-21-2011 at 05:53 PM

^^^^^^ How can you hate that song? Be honest with yourself. Nothing about that song sucks. Even the fact that it is mello does not suck. The song is
amazing. The video amusing, corny etc. I liked the song then and like it even more now. lifeisabitch - 2-21-2011 at 07:23 PM
not saying I like the band just I liked this song... and it seemed out of place for the band itselfSS76 - 2-22-2011 at 08:46 AM
Great song, great video. It definately sounds like a Queens of the stone age song. Probably the only foo fighters song I've ever liked. And Probot
fucking rules.
