This album is what I was expecting from In Your Honor - and aside from a few great tracks, IYH was generally disappointing.

My initial impressions are that I like this CD - I actually like the pretender as well. I think like most Foo works since the Color and The Shape, it sounds "deliberate" - like they figure what kind of "style" they want on an album and sort of over-do it, taking the "natural" feelings out of the songs.

I really don't care for "Let It Die." It's like they took "still" and rocked the end of it in a really obvious and predictable way. "Long Road to Ruin" also is just pretty bland - sort of the "That's The Way" of this album.

Dude, Long Road to Ruin is the shit.

I buy Foos albums more in hope than expectation these days, as soon as Dave Grohl starts shouting i lose interest. Especially when he does it throughout a song, i can take it in small doses. And £40 to see them live these days, no really worth it IMO.

why on earth would you do this?

i got 3 songs into this new one before deleting it. i still haven't heard in your honor or the one before that and i most likely never will.
the first three songs of this album let me know what i was missing with the last two: nothing.

I used to think Dave Grohl should just shut up and stay behind a drum kit, but even when he's drumming he's an arrogant pain in the ass.
