Why all the hate for this band? They've done some very comfy albums, and are great live too.

The Best?
They're for teenagers and normalfags, my least favorite people desu

Nirvana Lite
>Nirvana without Kurt Cobain doing quality check on the songs
Jesus Christ, it's not like Nirvana were that great in the first place but the Dave Ghrol band is just godawful

So are Death Grips.
they're ok
people on 4chan get angry at things irrationally and grohl is kind of an ass sometimes

Really? I don't think they sound anything like Nirvana at all.

It's what Nirvana would have sounded like if he actually let Dave write songs

they're reddit personified
first few albums are good but everything they've done in the past 10 years is the same radio arena rawk trite that becomes unlistenable after awhile.
i remember reading an interview from sonic highways i think awhile back where dave said "we could've released this really weird radiohead like album but we decided to stick with what we knew" and someone in the comments said "so you could have released a good album" and i laughed my ass off haha.
dave can write a great tune, i just wish it wasn't masked in the nickelback-like production that every one of their songs now has. there is nothing left to lose proves that they were once really good...

Nirvana is grunge, Foo fighters is post-grunge. They have a few things in common: Shouting vocals, simple but catchy chord riffs, etc. Nirvana just does it better imo.

For instance. The song Monkey Wrench took me forever to get into, I couldn't appreciate it until I really noticed the bassline. You hear the song Lithium on the radio, and everybody instantly knows that's a great song.
Daily Reminder
If you have songs from a band called "the Foo Fighters" in your library, you should off yourself
>they're all OOOOOOOHHH YEAH THE POWER OF ROCK N ROLL!!
and it's cringeworthy
music isnt terrible but it's the same for what 15 years ?
If you're just looking for "rawk" for the sake of getting your blood pumping, they might fit the bill. (Even then, there's far better choices.)
That's all they're good for. Actually stopping to examine their music or lyrics, it's nothing but boneheaded bullshit without even the tiniest shred of substance. It's radio music to the fullest.

Wasting Light was great though, come on.
their debut is secretly patrician desu
