The Foo Fighters, one of the most successful rock bands of the past few decades, have announced their comeback after a long hiatus. Their first new single, titled “Rescued,” was released recently as a lead-in to their forthcoming album called “But Here We Are” (Alternative Press Magazine). This is their first album since the sudden death of their long-time drummer, Taylor Hawkins, in March 2022 (Variety).
“Rescued” depicts the band’s emotional journey post-Hawkins. According to Vulture, “Rescued” is a powerful and cathartic song that seeks to explore the vulnerability of the band members, their struggles, doubts and fears. The song is already a chartbuster, having made it to the top of several global charts (Genius).
The Foo Fighters had been teasing their fans about their upcoming album for a week before announcing its release on Jan 28, 2023(Ultimate Classic Rock). The album chronicles the band’s journey after Hawkins’ sudden passing and is expected to be very emotional and raw (Planet Radio).
Fans and music critics alike have been eagerly awaiting the Foo Fighters’ new music. They have welcomed their return and praised the song for its power and energy, especially after the tragedy the band has gone through (Loudwire). According to Revolver Magazine, “Rescued” shows how the Foo Fighters have evolved over the years and their ability to keep making great rock music even in difficult circumstances.
Foo Fighters’ fans must be eagerly waiting for the release of “But Here We Are,” which is expected to be an emotional and honest work of art from a band that continues to push the boundaries of rock music (NME).
