Editorial Review: Album Description: Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 2007. Amazon.com: A major criticism of the Foo Fighters' self-titled debut was its supposed lack of, you know, passion among the well-crafted songs and well-crafted rock. This time out, if it's wreckage you want, it's wreckage you get. The Colour & the Shape grows deeper the more it's played, with the band's ripping power more than matched by Dave Grohl's fascinating examinations of pain and divorce. There's even a convincing long slow ballad, "November Stars," whose intensity should win over doubters. If that doesn't work, then the screaming "My Hero" will. --Rickey Wright Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Foo Fighters' Best AlbumI had the pleasure of getting to shake Dave Grohl's hand behind the stage at Summerfest (Milwaukee, WI) on the Colour and the Shape tour on July 5, 1997. I was keenly aware that TCATS was an amazing album at the time, but the perspective of another 10 years passed has revealed just how incredible the record is from start to finish. Never again have the Foos really recaptured the feeling, the lyric qualities, and the ability to rock with emotion found on this album (though Echoes is a close second). With unforgettable songs like "Monkeywrench" and "Everlong" and a slew of amazing songs that never saw the light of day on the radio but were indeed radio-worthy especially compared with the junk out there today, The Colour and the ...

The tragic suicide of Kurt Cobain was supposed to be the death knell for grunge music let alone Nirvana and yet out of the ashes Dave Grohl the drummer decides to form the Foo Fighters and after a decent first effort goes on to show with this the follow-up that the Foo Fighters is no fluke in what would be an even better album. Grohl shows he learned a lot from Cobain's compositions as the same "formula" of alternating loud and soft dynamics is used on track after track. Grohl as did Cobain knew that to make songs sound interesting you can't just have non-stop loud or soft music going on throughout and that alternating hard with tender spots in songs makes them much more interesting for the human ear to behold and ...

(with the exception of bass). that is a true musician. surprisingly his voice is pretty good. the big hit here is monkey wrench but they are all pretty good. Rating: - SolidGreat album, catchy but not overtly so, from soft silly vocals on "doll" to the semi metal screams of "enough space". Even though my hero and everlong have been played millions of times they're still great songs and all the other songs on the album are just as good, if not better. Play it right through, there's no slow spots. Rating: - The second album=same excellent rockThis album it is the beginnig of the big success of this band, you will find songs like MY HERO and EVERLONG, Foo Fighters mix the fun with rock with sad love history, if you like an alternative rock music buy this album |
