Advantages: IT ROCKS Disadvantages: The cardboard cover
...of all time is found in "Best of you", but all that screaming is balanced out by the beautiful Virginia moon (with a guest vocal, and piano from Norah Jones). And just for good measure there is a track featuring the vocal talents of Taylor Hawkins. (The bands drummer if you didn't know.)
Also included is an oldie, 'Friend of a friend' penned by Grohl whilst sharing a flat with Kurt Cobain, (and admittedly about him).
This record shows Dave Grohls ...

Advantages: Music to suit more people with 2 great CDs Disadvantages: People may not like the music style of both CDs
...on this single CD. So, in my opinion, even if you are unsure on whether you will like what Dave Grohl and Norah Jones(A recently emerged soul singer who teams up with dave grohl for the track Virginia Moon) have to offer(as much as i tried not to like norah jones, i have to say it seems to work very well), or if you are worried about the harm on our ears of the Heavy guitars(pretty amazing on this album), you should still buy this album soully for ...

Advantages: Different type of songs Disadvantages: Repetitiveness
This album is really good in my opinion, all the songs are different so doesn't get boring to listen to as there is change. The songs are catchy and easy to listen to so perfect to just listen to in any mood. Also i think this CD is suited for all ages as there is such a mix in the songs. It's not all hard rock, so it gives you a break with some easy listening tracks. I don't personally own this CD but i've borrowed my friends copy and don't want ...

Advantages: Has some really good potential hits Disadvantages: Some songs lack appeal, and momentum is failed to be kept.
...be better if they just used the best tracks off of both cd's and just made a single cd album. I think it has tried to go further than it has managed but is still a good album
Its not the best, but in my opinion, worth the money. ...

Advantages: Two CD's, so whatever mood you're in theres something for you. Disadvantages: Too much to listen to, too little time.
...there isn't a bad one in the bunch. I had been concerned that the band were getting stale, but this is easily them back to their best...if not better.
The second CD is much more mellow, which the band do as well as they do upbeat rock. again there isn't a bad song on this disc, and i was even slightly surprised to find i really like the collaboration with Norah Jones (Virginia Moon).
The whole package is well balanced, with something for whatever ... ...excellent songwriter, and i think this album has given him a chance to stretch his legs a little more than previous outings, which is never a bad thing.
as well as the general excellence of the writing and performance, there is the obvious benefit that you get twice as much music for your money...whats not to love?
Overall, i would highly recommend this album be bough immediately!
Happy Listening! ...

Advantages: One Loud Disadvantages: One not so Loud!
...with them is the similarity in their songs. This album is different! Each song so different and having a placid 2nd cd is really relaxing to listen.
I think the album cost just over £10 and if my friend wants it back it'll be the first thing i buy! An absolutely amazing album and a must have from music lovers and even music haters! Its just that good! ...

Advantages: something for everyone Disadvantages: dvd too short
I have always been a fan of Dave Grohl and this album has just proved his worth over and over again. Grohl is very talented and manages to sweep the band along on a highway of rock and ballads that will keep everyone happy. When I bought this album, my husband said that I will listen to disc 2 more often and how right was he. Although disc 1 is rocking and lacks nothing, disc 2 is so raw and powerful that you have to listen to it again and again. ... ...out, you don't feel like you are listening to Brian Adams on disc 2. It's still very good and very powerful.
The dvd is very funny and shows some behind the scenes looks into the making of the album. Also includes the full album for surround sound. I would have liked to see some more footage though.
It hasn't left my cd player yet! They will be remembered for this one! ...

Advantages: Its great! Maintains they're great standards Disadvantages: Hard to listen to the second cd as the first ones so good
...is one of those diamonds in the rough kinda albums that come along every so often, the kind you can play on random contently because you know you'll like every song. They've got a new take on it with this double cd idea, the first is the harder rock and the second a bit more mellow. Regularly I decide on a new favourite song of it for a matter of days until I suddenly remember one of the others again, it really does kick ass! They're def my favourite ...
