Foo Fighters - you're the Philadelphia Eagles of rock n roll. Everything is there that would suggest you would kick ass in your field, but some unidentified element is missing. Foos are one of my favorite bands, but as their latest offering, "Echoes, Silence, Patience, and Grace" illustrates, it's not good enough. There's 4 strong tracks on this record. Four songs does not a good record make.
Kanye's latest is disappointing for a different reason - he's trying to hard to be an Usher-like club banger dude. Synthesizers overload this album, and it totally takes away from the tracks themselves. Perhaps Kanye should've listened to "Touch the Sky" from his second album to get an idea of how a club anthem should be composed. It just doesn't sound like good ole Kanye.
Radiohead's 7th album is released online this Tuesday. It won't suck. It CAN'T suck. Do me proud, Radiohead. OK-Computer-proud.
