“Something From Nothing” is definitely more than something

 

Waiting for new Foo Fighters music this year has been killing me, and the sneak peeks they’ve been giving haven’t made it any easier. Luckily for all of us, they finally released one of the songs off the new album, Sonic Highways.

Incredible. “Something From Nothing” is the Foo Fighters at their best. The song starts out quiet and calm, but don’t be fooled. “Something From Nothing” continues to build over the course of 4 minutes and 48 seconds into a wild frenzy fueled by Dave Grohl’s energetic, passionate vocals and the frantic guitar work that accompanies them. The Foos keep it interesting though, as expected. A unique (and unexpected) addition to the song that immediately caught my attention was the funk-fueled guitar effects that are seamlessly mixed in around the middle of the song, right before all hell breaks loose and things start getting crazy.

After listening to this song, my excitement over their new album has grown exponentially. Sonic Highways doesn’t come out until November 10, so feel free to join me in playing this song on repeat for the next few weeks!
