"godawful" is harsh, pretty sure i'd like medicine more on second listen, it just did nothing i want a foo fighters record to do outside of "love dies young," which is the cruelly the last song

idk, I think "godawful" isn't far off for MatM, and I'm usually an apologist for these guys

the new one is basically what i'd want there is nothing left to lose to have been, a similar shiny guitar tone but the songs are stronger overall

post-wasting light grohl seemed to become obsessed with recording session gimmicks to keep him interested? & they got out of their comfort zone but completely forgot how to play to their strengths at all

I still think it's their best.

A coworker just sent me pics from a recent music fest; he was standing with his bf watching Peaches perform, and noticed Grohl was standing right behind them. His bf got a few selfies w/Grohl... pretty cool!

five months pass...

revisiting the new one, god the best parts of this are like the best foos record ever. also really appreciate “the glass”’s resemblance to “in the meantime”
