Editorial Reviews

But Here We Are is the new album from Foo Fighters, and marks the bands return after a year of staggering losses, personal introspection and bittersweet remembrances. A brutally honest and emotionally raw response to everything Foo Fighters have endured recently, But Here We Are is a testament to the healing powers of music, friendship and family. Courageous, damaged and unflinchingly authentic, the album opens with “Rescued,” the first of 10 songs that run the emotional gamut from rage and sorrow to serenity and acceptance, and myriad points in between. But Here We Are is in nearly equal measure the 11th Foo Fighters album and the first chapter of the band’s new life. Sonically channeling the naiveté of Foo Fighters’ 1995 debut, informed by decades of maturity and depth, But Here We Are is the sound of brothers finding refuge in the music that brought them together in the first place 28 years ago, a process that was as therapeutic as it was about a continuation of life. This is a single Compact Disc in a Soft-pak, with a folded poster insert

It's certainly been a while since I've thoroughly enjoyed a Foo album. Wasting Light slapped me in the face and woke me up (hadn't loved a spin since One By One, and even that hit me less than the initial 3 releases), but then was lulled back by projects that were somewhat experimental and novelty for them, didn't seem to have that... something.So it's been a rocky 20yrs, and starting to have that same issue with Muse (hopefully they'll release something worthwhile again soon), but in the end there is so much GOOD material that you love that it's difficult to be too hard on them, sometimes it's just current relevance that's in question outside of just great tours.But Here We Are hits a lot of feels, and I definitely recommend if you're on the fence. On first listen, I was not sure if any of their best tunes were on this, but I think The Teacher may make that list, and several others will knock on the door of that top 15 or so spot. I don't think there's a weak link in the album, and that's one thing that I appreciate so much when I don't feel inclined to skip a track. That quality balance has been on Nothing Left to Lose, but even on C&S there are a couple I don't need even if the rest are outstanding, and heck Wasting Light had White Limo 🤷‍♂️ >> 👀.If there is anything critical to say for this record, it's that sometimes the big moments compression is a bit eh, and many of the lyrics are fairly cliche for loss and healing. The thing is... they come across as sincere, so it hits more as genuine listener relation instead of laziness.It opens with the 1st streaming release, Rescued, which has a great verse and wonderful drum work (Grohl behind the kit again for a FF recording), and while the latter chorus growing and repitition almost loses me a bit. Under You follows, this was the 2nd stream release, and it's incredibly catchy. Something about this song makes me feel very nostalgic melodically, and I think this is where I realized there was some harkening back to the 90s on this album. It's very radio friendly, and you'll find yourself singing it in your head later in the day.Track #3 is Hearing Voices, the tone changes a bit here, and it's a little haunting but in a very listenable way. "I'm hearing voices... voices in my head, but none of them are you. Speak to me, my love..." Emotional response starts up a bit here, the chorus has an interesting and unexpected tonality change, and it's one of the better fadeouts I've heard in a while... leading out to Grohl and an acoustic guitar, calling out and pleading for response.The title track is in the middle, and it hits on that same rhythmic verse quality that FF are so good at, the same comes out in Rescued and later in Nothing at All. But Here We Are has screaming harmonies and builds to a great stadium rocker, leading into The Glass which somehow packs such sad lyrics into a tune that you want to listen to while riding with the car top down in summer.Nothing at All was the last streaming release I heard before the album came out, but it was a live YouTube practice performance by FF and I wasn't quite sure what to think of it. The verse was somewhat dance-y, and then the chorus went to this Nirvana-esque (or debut Foo "I don't owe you anything!...") angry repetition, however on recording it works and I hear what was being done better.Show Me How really fights for the album top spot, what a great Foo-gazer track. Grohl's daughter sings along with her father on the track, and it is special. Its very much a passing of the torch-type tune, perhaps from Dave's mother's passing, to Dave, to his own child. Great harmonies and feel, and one of the songs where the compression complaint from earlier isn't at all an issue. Next is Beyond Me, which may be technically my least favorite on the album, but that's not necessarily a negative and it's still very solid, and the latter half pulls off some wonderful classic rock moments.Here we go, The Teacher. It's a 10min song, and those can be concerning to see before listening lol. This is definitely Grohl telling a story, a musical journey ala Pink Floyd a bit, and something I have not heard out of Foo Fighters. The music video is a bit odd, feels like something from 30yrs ago, but maybe that's not a bad thing? It's worth diving in, my top tune in the bag, and it ends on this fantastic guitar progression that gets swallowed in overall distortion and then is abruptly cutoff without any notice (perhaps something being said there..?) and then into Rest, a Foo lullaby that I'm probably going to learn and sing to our own little one hopefully one day. It has a surprise in it, and is also very much a highlight on the record, but ultimately is an acoustic acceptance and path to peace that hasn't traditionally been seen in their work. The mix complaints that I had earlier in the album are not really an issue on the latter half, especially #7, 9, and 10.Hawkins passing, and then Dave's mom.... that had to have been so difficult last year, and this was quite the surprise. The loss and learning and hope are all over But Here We Are, and while it doesn't top Color and the Shape, Nothing Left to Lose, or Wasting Light for me, it may one day challenge their debut or One By One. It's not important if it does or not, we'll see, but its certainly worth our time.
