The Foo Fighters have released their new album, ‘Your Favorite Toy’, a home-recorded album that is their first with Ilan Rubin on drums, a Sony Music release announced Friday.
Co-produced by the American band with Oliver Roman and mixed by Mark ‘Spike’ Stent, it is the twelfth studio album by the band led by Dave Grohl, the former drummer of Nirvana.
An album that represents the return to the rawest rock of the Seattle band, which released the single that gives title to the album last February.
Critics have agreed that this new Foo Fighters album is one of their strongest in years, according to the label, and “a return to more basic garage rock,” as The New York Times said of the title track.
As a preview of the album, ‘Asking for a Friend’, ‘Of All People’, ‘Caught In The Echo’ and ‘Your Favorite Toy’ have been released in recent months.
When they released ‘Asking for a Friend’, Grohl explained that it is a song “for those who have waited patiently in the cold, relying on hope and faith for their horizon to appear.”
The band started last April 29 in Bridgeport (USA) a tour that will take them to European cities such as Oslo, Stockholm, Warsaw, Munich, Paris, Liverpool or Madrid (August 8, at Mad Cool).
On August 4, they will return to America, with a concert in Toronto, and will then stop in Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, Nashville and Los Angeles.
They will make a foray to Brazil to take part in Rock in Rio on September 4 and then return to the United States before traveling to Australia, where they will perform in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, the last concert scheduled for January 25, 2027.
The rock band, made up of Grohl, Pat Smear, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee and Rubin, will be accompanied on most of their dates by Josh Homme’s Queens of the Stone Age, reported Agencia EFE.
