Who will be seen as the defining rock artist of the 00's?

Foo Fighters haven't really done anything to deserve being seen as a defining band of the 00's, I don't think they'll be remembered for the below mediocre crap they released in that decade compared to the stuff they released in the mid to late 90's. QOTSA and The White Stripes there would certainly be a case for.

I agree, their latest album was utter junk. Being vintage recording it in their garage does not mean it's going to be automatically good. I used to really enjoy them, I still have their albums from the 90's that I play now and again. I think I passed that phase of being really into them.

Are you really slagging off Wasting Light?

I think Wasting Light had some good songs. I know it's predictable and has some obvious melody patterns, but hey.

I know Wasting Light actually surprised me with how good it was especially the first half of the album.

I thought it was a bit formulaic, but The Foo always is. I really enjoyed Bridge Burning, Matter of Time and Miss Misery. They haven't really changed much to me period, but I can see them becoming stale to some over time. It was a good record in my estimation.

Dave Grohl needs to do another Probot album, that was far more interesting than anything Foo Fighters have done since the '90's

Fair enough, but you're right, they certainly could lose their appeal with people soon. I think they need to reinvent themselves.

I love Probot, I really enjoyed their music when it came out.

I didn't like the For Fighters until I heard Wasting Light
