10. Foo Fighters - In Your Honor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_L4Rixya64 Helmed by the second coming of Christ himself; Dave Grohl, the Foos are yet to have an album as important to the cultural climate that it changes the entire face of the industry like the likes of Nevermind once did, however that was an album for a different time brought about by different people and a completely different mindset. In Your Honor on the other hand is (probably - let the debates roll in) the best all-round Foo Fighters album ever put out. Of course you can argue for the likes of Colour and the Shape thanks to its unabashed intensity dynamically contrasted with the timeless Everlong, however it's the double disc epic-ness of IYH that is easily the biggest-sounding of the lot. It takes just six words to cement that sentiment too. "I got another confession to make!" screams Grohl at the opener of career-highlight Best of You, and whilst other singles from this album Resolve, No Way Back and DOA are also suitable Wembley-tamers, it's the short-running fury of Hell and the take-on-all-comers spittle-flinging primal-drive of the title track that give this entire work a slight edge over everything else. It's impossible to get sick of: Best of You. The composition, the one-man-vs-the-world nature of the lyrics, the ferocity in Grohl's delivery, the...everything about this track. It can go from barstools to festival headliner-slots and retain everything along the way. One of the best rock songs ever written.
