Editorial Reviews

The Colour and The Shape is the second Foo Fighter album, and followed the band's multi-platinum debut Foo Fighters. Despite the first album's success, few people at the time thought that drummer-turned-frontman Dave Grohl could possibly have a second great album in him. Nonetheless, The Colour and The Shape exceeded all artistic and commerical expectations and established Foo Fighters as one of the most vital bands of our era. With hits like Everlong, Monkey Wrench and My Hero, Foo Fighters became a cornerstone of modern rock radio and a perennial MTV favorite.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now you don't have to shell out for the "My Hero" single
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2007

Foo Fighters' "The Colour and the Shape," the album whose singles have gotten more consistent radio airplay than any of the others in the past ten years, has been remastered with the addition of the singles' B-sides.

First, the album itself: We've all heard it, and we know what to expect. There's the hard rocker "Monkey Wrench," the one-two-three punch of "Hey, Johnny Park," "My Poor Brain," and "Wind Up," the slow to screaming "February Stars" and "New Way Home," the boring yet creepy "Walking After You," and probably the best song on the album, "My Hero."

"The Colour and the Shape" has more blatantly filler tracks than any other Foo Fighters album: "Doll," "Up in Arms," "See You," and quite possibly the stupidest Foo Fighters song ever (even stupider than "Podunk"), "Enough Space."

Then there's "Everlong." I can't go to one college open mic without some douchebag playing "Everlong" on his acoustic for his indifferent girlfriend. Oh, it's a romantic song alright, but a song best enjoyed in private. All good virgins cry along to "Everlong."

On the 2007 version, we get the B-sides. Foo Fighters probably have the best B-sides of any rock band, and I have quite a few of their singles for this reason. "Fraternity" and "Normal" are two of their best songs, and they're only available (for now) as B-sides.
14. Requiem: 6/10. It's better than some of the songs that made the album. The guitar riff gets a bit repetitive though.
15. Drive Me Wild: 7/10. The only one I hadn't previously heard, and it's rather amusing.
16. Down in the Park: 9/10. I bought "Songs in the Key of X" just to hear this one. It's a very good cover song.
17. Baker Street: 10/10. The reason you should buy the remastered version "The Colour and the Shape." Yes, it doesn't have as many instruments as the original version of "Baker Street," but the guitar alone is amazing.
18. Dear Lover: 2/10. It's like a slower version of "Walking After You," originally released on the "Scream 2" soundtrack. Coincidentally, it's about as tedious as "Scream 2."
19. The Colour and the Shape: 6/10. It's rare that a title track isn't good enough to make its own album. The only other example I can think of is Soul Asylum's "Candy from a Stranger." "The Colour and the Shape" really fits in better with the Foo Fighters' S/T, or maybe a Nirvana album.

One nice thing about the remastered version is that the booklet contains a historical account from Nate (the bassist). He says that it's not their best album, just the one the rest get compared to. He's right; in terms of quality, the album that followed, "There Is Nothing Left to Lose," is the Foo Fighters' best album (not just because it won a Grammy). Still, "The Colour and the Shape" has its own fumbling charm.

Read mixed reviews on this pressing, but thought I would give it shot since it was cheap. I'm super happy with it, not noisy at all, sounds clean and mostly free of pops. All discs sound the same to me (some reviews had mentioned sides A and B had a different tone than sides C and D). Nicely mastered copy of this album, would recommend to anyone who is a fan of this album.

A lenda todo mundo conhece: Dave Grohl toca bateria nesse disco. Independente disso, é um grande álbum com riffs poderosos e uma banda "azeitada" cumprindo bem seu papel. A prensagem do disco não desmerece em nada a "pegada pós-grunge" da banda. Particularmente, ou seja, de acordo com a minha humilde opinião, é o melhor álbum do Foo Fighters; o que viria a partir daí seria "mais do mesmo", com a exceção do disco Wasting Light, que soa bem diferente.
