Anyone else like In Your Honor?

(Also, is Wasting Light worth picking up or is it trash like One By One?)

Besides their debut I think One by One was their best effort. In your honor kinda sucked to me. The new album is pretty average. I like the sound quality just fine being recorded in his garage, but it lacks enough quality songs.

Same. I've always found them just a tad generic, and unspectacular.

Yeah, most Foo Fighters is just too boring and generic for me.

I think 2011 marks the pinnacle of they're career, they have appeared on every MTV, VH1, etc. music award show of the year.

They may be at their popularity may be at its peak, but they hit their creative pinnacle years ago. Grohl's side projects are way better than FF is.

I've never heard any of his solo work (side projects) before to be honest, I'm really not that big of a fan of the Foo Fighters. I know that Grohl is one of the great drummers of rock. What is some of his side projects? I might want to check it out sometime.
