Foo Fighters: Wasting Light

WITH THE release of this seventh studio album from the Nicest Man In Rock and his sweat-flecked colleagues, there can be no doubt that Foo Fighters have eclipsed the in-their-lifetime success of the outfit that first launched Dave Grohl into the public consciousness. There are fans of this band today who do not own a Nirvana record. The Foos are truly in the highest echelon of the rock hierarchy, their roots so distant as to be almost irrelevant.
