I think we can all agree it's essentially a load of old pony. No Macca, no Bowie, no Dylan, no Zeppelin, no Jagger / Richards, no f**king idea frankly. They are all predominately nice indie guitar white boys designed to appeal to the middle classes. It's just soemthing used to promote whoever seems to be touring and nothing more.

Grohl fits in quite nicely in amongst that lot.

The way people keep talking about this reward you'd think it actually matters or that the NME is important to music.

a bit off topic but related because its about the foos:

heard the teaser from the new album and tbh from the small clip it seems that the album is heavy rock (possibly even metal).
