Foo Fighters Greatest Hits

Product Information

Three singles are included from 1997's The Colour and the Shape album (" Monkey Wrench", " Everlong" and " My Hero"). I'm curious to know if this is just my copy or if others are experiencing the same thing with this pressing. Long-term fans will appreciate the ‘how to multitrack at home’ notes from Grohl, but said attraction aside this is straight-up Foos 101, best appreciated by fair-weather followers and absolute beginners.

A collection of what were little more than demos became the first Foo Fighters album, a band was formed to take the songs on tour (featuring half of Sunny Day Real Estate), and the rest, as they say, is history. Dave Grohl has stated his displeasure with the release of a greatest hits album, stating he would have preferred to wait until after the band had retired.

It comes with some great songs such as Learn to Fly, Breakout, Times Like These, Everlong and many more.

Using the name Foo Fighters in an attempt to embrace anonymity, Grohl’s first recordings stirred enough label interest to necessitate a stepping out from the shadows. So, the title Greatest Hits delivers what it promises - top-notch Foo Fighters material bundled on one disc.

Al tocar esta compilaciòn en el primer track del lado A, noté una compresiòn exagerada, bajos altos y produce saturaciòn en algunos temas. The former Nirvana drummer has always exhibited a fine ear for enormous pop hooks, and with the Foo Fighters has enjoyed considerable chart success. Read some of the recent reviews, and I remember I was super excited to land a copy of this "played once" album that was mint condition at my local brick and mortar. You can find Foo Fighters' evergreen hits like 'Everlong,' 'Monkey Wrench,' or 'Learn To Fly,' and of course the masterpiece 'The Pretender.Greatest Hits is a greatest hits album released by American rock band the Foo Fighters on November 3, 2009.

I've noticed this newer records also have thicker cardboard and a stronger spine (if it's gatefold) than the old records, a nice touch that should help avoid your new records ending up old and battered like your parents records (if they're anything like my mum's albums anyway! The presentation is incredible The sound is a tad compressed in some minor areas, but overall nicely mastered.

The band's label, however, had been wanting to release a compilation album for four years, and exercised a clause in the band's contract that allowed them to do so. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.These are big songs, full of cracking choruses; they are, at their centres, loud and proud pop songs dressed up as rock numbers simply because of the amplification addictions of individuals involved. I am baffled that this is still an affordable vinyl release, as it should be worth 2x3 times the going rate here today. Two singles are included from 1999's There Is Nothing Left to Lose album (" Learn to Fly" and " Breakout") as are two singles from 2002's One by One album (" All My Life" and " Times Like These"). A deluxe edition of the compilation includes a book and a DVD featuring some of the band's music videos and live performances.

Not to be confused with "Our Best Songs" or "Our Favorite Songs," it is a collection of the songs that have defined our band's identity to most people over the years. Some songs sound perfect, while others sound distorted to a point where it's just not pleasant to listen to anymore. It’s a perfect greatest hits set – all the songs you recognise, without any of those pesky numbers that never made it to radio.And here is that history – or at least 13 tracks of it, along with a couple of new songs and a solo acoustic take on fan-favourite Everlong (the studio version appears, too). Grohl was intimidated by Kurt Cobain’s writing for Nirvana – though he’d pen songs, he kept them to himself – but when the frontman committed suicide in 1994 Grohl struck out alone rather than man the kit for another group. Matthew Perpetua of Pitchfork also noted the lack of "I'll Stick Around" on the compilation and suggested that the release would have been stronger with the inclusion of rarities and fan favorites, such as their cover of Prince's " Darling Nikki" or their popular soundtrack contribution " The One". Grohl has also mentioned that he felt that the album did not include some of the band's best work and that it was "like a CliffsNotes version of what we've been doing for the last 15 years".
