See I don't really think of the Foo Fighters music as catchy. When I think catchy I tend to think off stuff like Back in Your Head by Tegan and Sara that has a more poppy bouncy element with a kind of shout along feel to it that very easily gets stuck in your head. I tend to place the Foo Fighers in more of a category where they aim to write the big rock anthems which can be catchy but I think it's too big? to be catchy. I can't really explain it anyway that's irrelevant digressing. I think there are bands on the mainstream doing it finer than them. No Cars Go by the Arcade Fire is a good example of this as well Dashboard by Modest Mouse. I don't think what they do has any real value to it or that they even do it better than their current contemporaries.
