Brought this one outta the vault for a few spins today ... and as with every time I dust it off, it'll probably end up ruling my playlist for the next couple of days. I love this frickin' CD!!

I thought it was genius on his behalf to do this, to bad he wasn't more metal with his band Foo Fighters.

I have utmost respect for Grohl, I run kind of hot and cold on The Foo Fighters but they do have quite a bit of good material and they are GREAT in concert. I loved Dave's short-lived stint in Queens Of The Stone Age as well.

A followup to this album would be a wonderful thing.

The album FAILS! A BIG Emphasis on FAIL! The only song I liked was with Lemmy! Every other song made me realize why Grohl sticks to mainstream pop and thus why he didn't indulge more on a musical genre he supposedly ''loves.''

What a poser.

People that actually still use the word "poser" have seriously "FAILED".

Please don't get defensive over an opinion... It's what I think of him (Grohl) and his ''project.'' Why not stick to the matter at hand instead of personal attacks?

Who fails now?

Peace.

Fair enough.

If Dave ever decides to revisit this project and put out another, I'd buy it. I like this cd.

really? exactly what's so bad about it?

I was wondering that as well - it has an old-school Voivod feel to it, which is why it rules. And the Voivodian track on there is probably the highlight for me. I've put off purchasing a copy because I have WAY more music I want that it doesn't take precedence at all, but a fun idea. Had I been a major fan of Foo Fighters (rather than just a casual fan), or more a Grohl follower, I probably would have bought it on the release date. As it stands, I have yet to buy this one.

It's hit or miss, overall it's decent.

I've been reading a biography of Dave Grohl this week (This Is A Call) and it prompted me to bust out the Probot CD out of the vaults again for the first time in a while... and dammit, I still love this album!! Wish he'd do another one!! headbanger
