Popped this in today for the first time in a really long time and I realized how great of a record it is.
Favorites are Everlong (duh) and New Way Home. This album makes me want to write music lol. I don't really listen to that much stuff that sounds like the Foo Fighters anymore, but this album is still fucking awesome. Forever a classic.

My Poor Brain, Up In Arms, and See You are also all very spectacular songs.

First album ever bought. Still listen to it quite frequently.... My Hero and Everlong are my favorite, if I had to choose.

The only cut from this album I don't enjoy is Enough Space. Everything else is gold.

This would be one of those albums I would listen to all the way through on a long drive.
I still debate whether this or the self-titled is better.

Hey Johnny Park is probably one of the most underrated Foo Fighters songs.

A mint album! It's the only Foo Fighter's album I'd actually put on to listen to. Like you said, a classic. I still always skip the first track. When the album came out, I got it from my brother and he said the first track was dumb and so I skipped it. Eight years on, I'm still skipping it. haha

I like Doll. :-( Ahhh well, I can see why someone wouldn't like it, but the album (to me) feels like one of those albums where its like a puzzle, and all of the songs set everything up for eachother, if you know what I mean.

Hey Johnny Park is probably one of the most overrated Foo Fighters songs.

The Foo Fighters may not have shaped music or anything, but The Colour and the Shape is a fucking awesome album. It doesn't have anything to do with them releasing the same song every 3 years. One of the best Alt-Rock albums ever. Also, how in god's name are they alt-country? They have probably four songs that have an extremely slight country sound to them. They aren't an alt-country band.

A+ thread. A+ album. A+ band even though the last three albums are just decent. S/T and this album are golden

I was talking about Jim Ward's side project Sleeper Car you doorknob.
Monkey Wrench, Hey Johnny Park, Everlong, My Hero were all great. The 10th anniversary edition of the album was great too. Too bad Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace was kinda disappointing.
