Dave Grohl proves there IS life after Nirvana after all...

Review Score: (8/10)
After the end of one of the biggest alternative groups in history, Dave Grohl, the former drummer, regroups with an album that proves him to be a great lead singer and guitarist. Of the three albums Dave and his cohorts have put out, this is by far their best. Do get the other two if you can ("The Colour And The Shape" and "There Is Nothing Left To Lose") for they are still good. It's just that their self-titled debut is very raw and more guitar-oriented than the other two. Plus, the production isn't as slick as the production on the other two. In other words, Dave and the boys just let it all hang out! Dave plays and screams out the passion in him in songs like "This Is A Call", "I'll Stick Around", and "Floaty". There are some quiet ones too, mind you (i.e., "For All The Cows"). But overall, this is a record that is meant to be played loud! "Foo Fighters" would pass as an excellent indie-rock record. Well done, Dave!
