i dunno, i think i like "one by one" a little better. the guitar solo sucks. and taylor's drumming has really fallen off.

Perhaps but you have to admit the "spooky voice" part is awesome.

This is the best thing Grohl has done since In Utero. Seriously, this rocks.

I'd say its on par with everything else they've done. Now excuse me while I fix my Cross Colors hat and shake a leg to that song.

Dammit, not only did I fall for this, but I'm afraid that this will indeed be stuck in my head all damn day. Great "Rockin' the iPod" errr, excuse me, "Rockin the Walkman" picks too.

The important question is--Stereogum is rocking the Walkman? WTF?!? Chris Gaines? Amy Grant? Okay, I take that back. I own that very same CD too.
