The top 2 are head and shoulders above the rest. The other tracks are fine but nothing special. I will say though that I was shocked the bonus track was actually good as those tend to be throwaway nonsense.

Foo Fighters is a band that I've tended to enjoy their various singles over the years and yet never listened to an album. This album did not convince me to change my mind. That said, in my mind they are a quintessential band of my initial formative music listening years, when 92.3 K-Rock in New York was where it was at.

Also going to pile on to the Everlong being "an absolute classic rock song" bandwagon. Funny thing, the first time I heard that song (and probably the Foo Fighters) was an acoustic cover, which the internet has thankfully archived: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-89uZOIFok. I eventually heard the "real" version and it kind of blew my mind a little; both are good, each in their own way.
