Everyone seems to be complaining about the change in style, and I'm just sitting here loving this multi-city-inspired album that is giving off a 60s/70s rock'n'roll feel. The Foos have kept modern rock alive, now they're reviving classic rock. These guys are heroes - "My Hero"s to be exact! :)
Heck yeah 😁😁
Day after day when I listen to FF, its hard to live without taylor's drumming.
This song is an incredible mix of Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Beatles, Zeppelin, Queen and God knows what else hahaha. Beautiful masterpiece!
I don't mean to spam the comments section, but I think some people are forgetting the concept that created this album. Of course the styles of each song will be somewhat different and this album will definitely be different from other Foo albums. But if you understand and know the background to how this album was inspired to be made, you'll definitely get it. If you don't, look it up, it'll help you get it. And if you absolutely hate it, to each his own, but still don't give up on them. This is basically a concept album so it doesn't define them permanently from here on out. Either way, I'll always love these guys.
Thank you, that was what I was just preaching. lol When the Foo Fighters go back into the studio with the sole intention of just making another great rock album and nothing else; THAT is the day we'll hear their greatest music to date. For now, I'll do more than just enjoy these awesome little experiments and "love letters to American music". These 4 songs are fantastic.
GrohlStatus Absolutely agree. And all the real Foo fans will be right here no matter what. Btw, badass username man hahaha
Thanks man. haha I've had it since I was like 13. I'm 19 now, never wanted to change it. xD But yeah, no matter what, the real fans will stick by and appreciate what they're doing here. It's awesome.
Awesome haha. Don't take this weirdly, but I'm gonna subscribe to you because it's rare to find cool people on RUclips, haha and I just like bookmarking them as 'hey, this dude's cool.'
Alright! I'll do the same! haha
Foo Fighters will forever be one of my all time favorite bands. No matter what different styles they pursue, I'll always support them. They're keeping true rock surfaced enough to stay alive above ground. Legends.
Rock on guys!!!
What Did I Do? / God As My Witness"
There you go again,
putting words into my mouth.
This one's for you to know,
and for me to find out.
All that trouble, and you on about.
How you gonna know, til you hear it out loud.
Stop, ask myself what did I do?
what did I do to deserve you?
Come on, tell me now what did I do?
what did I do to deserve you?
I heard every word comin' from the 13th floor.
Your song came along,
and I heard the voices telling me to save yourself,
I'll behave yourself.
I stop, ask myself what did I do?
what can I do to preserve you?
Come on, tell me now, what can I do?
What can I do to conserve you?
Your name, year of fame,
I could see the writing on the wall.
Come on, flip a coin, bet it's going to tell you
to save yourself, I'll behave yourself.
Your man, channelin', knowin' by the x on his hand
You raise, runaways singin' at the gate,
to save yourself, I'll behave yourself.
So here I go again,
putting words into your mouth.
This one's for me to know,
and for you to find out.
All that trouble and I'm on about,
how you gonna know, til you hear it out loud.
All of your heroes, where are they now?
I'm lost, deliver me,
I crossed the river finally.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah you gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah you gonna heal my soul tonight.
Four incredible songs down, four to go. I can't imagine what the whole thing is going to sound like; halfway through it already has my vote for Album of the Year!
A live version of "Outside" was released a few hours ago, it's great.
Mitch Wotton 3 to go...
Mitch Wotton yes but it sounds like the break on The Pretender repeatadley
does not u lil shit
Listen to it very carefully.
And then I might listen to what you say
God as my witness, it's going to heal my soul tonight.
💗
I'm not religious but that composition and lyric just bring me to tears, as does 'River.
such a magnificent album. 🙌❤
Grohls best bit of vocals IMO
I don't think these guys have ever put anything out that sucks. Good job fellas. I like it.
This has Classic Rock written all over it. Great song, things just keep getting better.
This is too much guys, I cried a lot with this song. Is just perfect.
Thanks for all the legendary tempos brother, rest in peace Taylor! We all miss you!
Foo Fighters are unquestionably one of the best rock bands in the history of rock, and they continue to inspire others to create.
Really feeling this song!! Something about it, the rhythm and vocals throughout, but especially at 3:30 onwards!!
I met you on one of the darkest days of my life, thank you for spending that moment with me and my girl - you are still writing those songs for me....I will always treasure that day!
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
I've missed you Foo Fighters. :')
The feel of this song reminds me of the There is Nothing Left to Lose album
This album just keeps getting better, can't wait for this episode tomorrow night!
I LOVE being one of the few that enjoys Sonic Highways, more for us
Just listened to the remaining 4 songs "Outside", "In the Clear", "Subterranean", and "I Am a River"...SO AWESOME. Love the back half better than the first half by a thousand miles!
Subterranean by far is the strangest song, GREAT foo vibe and into new territory with Ben Gibbard on vocals. LOVE IT.
My personal favorite song on the album. Got to see them play it live for the first time ever when they did their taping for Austin City Limits about a month ago.
i just love how the song transforms into a different tune! Awesome! just reminds me of old rock music...... ! brings me back in time!
This is righteous! Sonic Highways is going to be a classic album, no doubt!!
I love bands that grow and expand their wings. The Foo has done this time and time again. Love love this. Only complaint? Wish it was longer.
One of my favourite concerts is Foo Fighters! Their energy and friendship came through!
Amazing guitar solo. Simply beautiful
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I can’t believe it’s been 5 years already since this came out
I swear to god, these new songs are like the fucking greatest thing on the face of the earth!
Waiting for the Foo's to come back to Toronto.I saw them last time they were here.They are an amazing band.
Whats with the hate? I think its a brilliant album
Me too
Me three -6 years later
Some people just hate change, this album is great for me, but you can't please everyone
Opinions right, I think its good too lets be friends
This album to me is the what the foos stand for pure rock and admiration for it, it tells story of the beginning, in my opinion better than wasting light! but thats a sore topic for some
Foo fighters, Keeping rock alive! don't ever stop.
In the end of the track, i listened Queen: "so you think you can stone and spit in my eye" Bohemian Rhapsody guitar's riff. Another great track! Keep rocking Foos! I'll be waiting here in Brazil :)
As músicas desse álbum estão lembrando outras músicas demais, sei não... k' Pelo visto "The Fears and The Famine" vai ser a melhor música desse álbum.
Carascoroscovaldo Cara, esse e o objetivo do album. Como Dave ja disse, esse album e uma "carta de amor" para outras musicas famosas, e uma forma de homenagem a estudios famosos daqui dos Estados Unidos. Pesquisa mais sobre, eh bem interessante. :)
Carascoroscovaldo tmbm to achando
Não chega nem no chulé do primeiro. Aquele sim é um álbum foda, o melhor pra mim.
não tinha notado essa parte do Queen, bem legal !!
I've cried many times to this song, especially the second part. Just beautiful.
They just keep getting better... I cannot wait for this album to come out!!
I haven't had much faith with in the music industry, for a long time. Then came the Foo Fighters!!!!!! Thank you guys. I believe again!!! Rock on!!!!!!!!!
Best song on sonic highways!!
I am addicted to the FOO FIGHTERS....I cannot go a single day without listening. Vey talented musicians. The journey they were on when they wrote the music and lyrics was a journey of a life time. We are all getting the benefit of that soulful trip.
I was a little uncertain about this album at first but the more I listen to it the more I love it. Another great piece of work by Foo Fighters.
My only problem with this is the fade , I need the God is my witness part to still be playing now. Never ever stop.
Just one of the most beautiful lyrics that I heard ever
dear dave grohl and company this song lit my heart on fire. i am now once again playing guitar thank you for the motivation. stephan.
"God as my witness, gonna heal my soul tonight"This is album that just felt, sounded great the first, but gets better every times. Awesome project.Thank-you, Foo's.
Been a Foo Fighters fan since day 1 "LOVE IT!!"
This song is so brilliant. Especially the part at the end where he keeps repeating "God as My witness" GOOOOOOD so good
There isn't a bad song on this album yet. This may be my new favorite album. I cannot wait. Super hyped. Keep on rocking Grohl and company!
this goes to all the people hating this album i think you all should be glad that dave and the rest of the band are still around giving us some kick ass music im really blessed listening to this music its great !!!!
I don't get why people are hating on this. Sure it's not their hardest rocking music but it's still good. I for one like that this different musical styles show off their range. This was a very ambitious musical project and in my opinion they've executed it nearly flawlessly
This song is the best yet! Gives me chills! Would love to see it performed live!
THIS SONG #FeelLike90's
I caught the "All You Need Is Love" riff pretty much instantly, and automatically assumed it had to be deliberate. Just like how Oasis used the "Imagine" piano riff on "Don't Look Back In Anger", in fact, this is probably the most epic "homage" I've heard since then!
Tal cual!! Agreed!
Thanks! I didn't catch "all you need" riff until you mentioned it. This song has really grown on me. They did a great job of representing Austin's past and future both lyrically and musically.
Gary Clark jr. Solo is amazing
No one can deny Foo Fighters expanding there diversity with this album. Like it
So excited for this album!!
Incredible!! Fantastic!!
Every song..makes every Friday better.. so glad I pre-ordered..The Show is astounding.. Foos Forever!!
I totally love this track. I keep listening over and over. Amazing
Favorite song so on the album so far. I love how upbeat it sounds.
My god this is absolutely incredible! Every song so far on the the album is amazing...one of the best albums to come out in the last 14 years.
This album can't come soon enough. Need more Foo in my life!!!
Great job by Gary Clarke Jr. --> First take guitar solo...priceless
"Your man, channeling, know him by the X on his hand" hits different when you've been front row at a FF show with X's on your hands. Don't know if I, or anyone, will ever see them live again. RIP Taylor 😞
Okay, people please. We all have our own opinions which differ from each other. One may hate this song one may love it. I personally love it,but that doesn't mean I have to go and pick a fight in the comments section with someone who says they're disappointed. Music feeds our souls, so listen to what you enjoy and find inner peace (that probably sounds religious but it's not). Look at the bright side, this song (like many others on the album) where wrote as a love letter to american music. Bands such as the Foo Fighters make music because they love to, it's their passion. They are doing a project like this as an experiment of sorts, and the concept is amazing but really hard to pull of! Anyways, what I'm trying to say is at least this isn't Nikki Minaj or some other shit that is made for the pure purpose of profit. And if you like music by Nikki so what? It's your opinion to so why should everyone else jump on you. Music is amazing and we all share a love for it; so why do we have to jump on someone if their taste differs from ours?
Agreed. That bit about "inner peace" doesn't sound religious at all to me; peace is peace regardless. Good points, and thank you for saying it.
Christon Varner-Halback It's just like saying "Oh My God" That statement alone doesn't determine one's religion. Although Dave is a Christian (I think, correct me if I am wrong) I feel people are interpreting the song wrong.
*****
I thought the same thing about Dave being a Christian until I saw the Sonic Highways tv show when he says he's not even sure if he believes in god and also states unambiguously that he's not religious at all in the Nashville episode whilst talking about how the music from that area is influenced by gospel. I'm an atheist and I definitely judged this song by it's name before i even heard it, but it's one of my favourite's off the album. So what if it was intended to be religious anyway? It wouldn't make the music any more or less beautiful in it's own right!
420Leopard tl;dr
+Dan Dunn Its Great music leave it at that.what does being an atheist have any thing to do with Music?
IDGAF what people say about this band, the Foos keep getting better and better! I always say they will never top their last album and they never cease to amaze me and I love them that much more for it! This album is going to be fucking fantastic!!! Too the Foos!!
Very Queen.
Much love.
Such Foo's.
Wow!! All too fighters song in this new album are amazing so far!!!
Classic Queen style Rock, every song has surprised me. First album im actually goin to buy in a long time.
The best comments you read down every new song that is released of Sonic Highways are the comments by people who actually know how this album is written, probably cause they watch the HBO sonic Highways show as well. And with the knowledge of that docu this album is actually a incredible piece of music! So to all the people who did there research, Thank you!
Love seeing the "new video, foo fighters" update on my phone. It reminds me of how close the album is to be released and how excited I am to pick it up and listen to it relentlessly for days.
This is amazing.
Gary Clark Jr. You're a legend.
Amazing. Love you guys
Love it! And I absolutely love the foos. They never disappoint.
Every time i listen to these four songs, i like them even more. Foo Fighters rock!
I love this one, it's my favorite music from this album.
What a beautiful song. This kicks butt!
If you watch the episodes that go with the songs, you really gain a much bigger appreciation for them.
Gary is the fucking man! I highly recommend his live album. Unbelievable. So great to see him working with Foo Fighters
I love this song, you really can feel the feeling of the song
Has to be my fave so far! Keep going foos and this album will be another amazing album!!!
Hello, How are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
Anyone who doesnt know and love Gary Clark Jr already start listening to him! Really enjoyed this track overall! The others are still growing on me!
Thanks dave, you healed my soul today
I think it rocks....comparisons to Foo's 'other' songs are inevitable, yet are irrelevant. This has the classic energy, power, passion and all-things Foo........watching the songs performed at the end of each of the Sonic Highways TV episodes, played at volume, made my spine tingle. They continue to rock, continue to be one of the world's hardest working bands, and they remain The Foo Fighters. Fans are divided....and i get that......but even the Foo's must evolve, and they have done here....but not at all in a bad way. My ears continue to hear - without them having any choice at all - the same hard, driving force & passion that The Foo Fighters have always brought to me.....and i look forward to much, much more of that..
Best foo fighters album ever!! And best song ever composed by them: "outside".
i love the last part... the meaning of this song is so good.
These guys are doing what noone else did before and they are doing it perfectly IMO.
So here I go again,
putting words into your mouth.
This one's for me to know,
and for you to find out.
All that trouble and I'm on about,
how you gonna know, til you hear it out loud.
All of your heroes, where are they now?
I'm lost, deliver me,
I crossed the river finally.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
I love this shit and if you don't then oh well man. What can I say? Foo Fighters are one hell of a band and always have been. I cannot wait to hear the rest of the tunes on this record. I am buying this album now. I am and always will be a Foo Fighters fan. They will always be my favourite band. Nothing will change about that
love it!
Damn this is great! Foo Fighters have never done anything like it but it is truly great!!! I knew they were gonna bring something great for the Austin track!!!
all these songs are giving me goosebumps now
Goosebumps... Love it!
These musics are so so so beautiful!
Amazing!
maravilloso!! wonderfull!!
Love it! Best song from this álbum
These songs flat out rock! I love what I am hearing off the new album Sonic Highways.
Que potente la voz de dave y esas guitarras en god as my witness !! Esplendido!!
Greatest rock band ever, no question.
Zgadzam się
Ever heard about Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Motorhead?
Andronk Not even the best foo's album. Probably the worst in all honesty. The best rock album ever is Led Zeppelin 1
XxCrazyRedneckHackerxX i can agree with that.
IMO its AC/DC but hey we all have opinions.
Excelente, Hey foo! you're amazing
this album will be awesome!!
