iTunes Review
With 2005’s In Your Honor, the Foo Fighters distinctly divided their approach into acoustic and electric collections that helped the band fully explore their disparate influences without watering down either approach. For the follow-up, 2007’s Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace, the group string their various approaches together for what flows as a naturally stylistically diverse album, comfortable expressing its angst with distorted guitars and emotionally charged pleading (“But, Honestly”) or with the piano and gentle orchestration of the album’s closing ballad (“Home”). Singer Dave Grohl has always seemed most comfortable leading a hard rock charge, and “The Pretender,” “Cheer Up, Boys” and “Long Road to Ruin” are readymades for the Foo Fighters’ live assault. However, the album’s most surprising and affecting moments are the subdued shades of the whispered forecasts of “Stranger Things Have Happened” and the duet with acoustic guitar virtuoso Kaki King for “Ballad of the Beaconsfield Miners,” where Grohl displays an emotive range that establishes him as a first-rate singer, in case there was any doubt.
Customer Reviews
Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace
The Foo Fighters are back with an absolutely brilliant 6th studio album, Echoes Silence Patience & Grace. With the brilliant first single, The Pretender, (which could be one of the best songs thay have done), i couldn't wait for their new album to come out. This has to also be one of their best albums they have done. I have said this many, many times but once more cannot hurt. Dave Grohl is a genius. My rating on Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace is 10/10. Top 6 1 - The Pretender 2 - Let It Die 3 - But, Honestly 4 - Erase/Replace 5 - Home 6 - Once & For All (Demo) Song Ratings The Pretender - 10/10 Let It Die - 10/10 Erase/Replace - 9/10 Long Road to Ruin - 8/10 Come Alive - 9/10 Stranger Things Have Happened - 9/10 Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make Up Is Running) - 9/10 Summer's End - 8/10 Ballad Of The Beaconsfield Miners - 7/10 [It is instrumental, but it is good] Statues - 9/20 But, Honestly - 10/10 Home - 10/10 Once & For All (Demo) - 9/10
Seamless blend
In this new album, I feel the Foo boys have finally achieved the seamless blend of gorgeous acoustic melodies and hard hitting overdriven riffs that they've been looking for since they turned their backs on their jolly summery power chords sound of the 90s. This new sound is no better demonstrated than in the tracks; "But, Honestly" and "Long Road To Ruin". Grohl's guitar ability seems to have got even better if that's possible, best demonstrated in the instrumental track "Ballad of the Beaconsfield Miners". And his lyrics are gold, he could sell them as poetry on their own, but the music seems to complete it seems throughout that he's talking to one person and every now and then you feel that's you. This is a top album I highly reccomend everyone to buy it. Favourtie track is either "Stranger Things Have Happened" or "Home".
Thanks Dave!
Well it's finally here and well worth the wait. The stadium rockin' track 'The Pretender' has kept the waiting Foo fighting fans jumping until the album release. A carefully crafted piece of work, 'Echoes, Silence and Patience & Grace' doesn't allow you to rest for a second. 'The Pretender, Let it Die and Come Alive' leap boldly from acoustic melody into Grohl's patent throat shredding vocals. Track 9 takes you off on a jaunty acoustic melody until you are safely returned back to earth with the appropriately named 'Home'. The Foos and particularly Dave Grohl show a diversity and imagination that can only breed success for the future. Take it easy!
