Juding by the previews I like "The Feast and the Famine" more than "Something From Nothing" but I'm very excited anyway

I like it. It's not as good as "The Pretender" (obviously) or even "Rope", but it's not bad. Most of it is fairly soft, while the last minute or so goes really hard. It would have been much better if it were all hard, or the softness being shorter.

Not bad. There's some good guitar work in this.

Hmmmm I'm not sure about this one. Sounds kinda like a non single album track. It only comes alive in the last minute.

I like it. I thought "Rope" was underwhelming when I first heard it, and it didn't really grow into much either. This is still a bit of a grower, but it's pretty solid.

On the fence on this one, Everlong will remain my favorite single from them.

It's pretty good. I enjoy the build, and when it goes batshit crazy at the end is just amazing. Fingers crossed that this will have a HUGE debut tomorrow.

I guarantee I'll be screaming "F**k IT ALL, I CAME FOR NOTHING!!!" all the time this week.
Now if only radio stations had the balls to play that line uncensored.

Another great song by the Foo Fighters. I did like Rope and The Pretender better, but not being as good as those songs is nothing to be ashamed of. Plus, These Days was my favorite single from their last album, and that was the 3rd release. Does anyone else hear "Holy Diver" in the riff? It sounds a lot like it to me.

This is why they are my favorite band of ever. No disappointment! I think it's better than "Rope", but not better than "The Pretender". It's cool, I can't see this song being included on "Wasting Light", it might mean they are coming with a different work.

Coming with a huge debut! 150 spins @ Alternative imgur.com/KllPsMwI think they premiered it too late, "Rope" was premiered on radio in the morning.

I like this more than Rope, and probably The Pretender too. Their best lead single since Best Of You. I tend to prefer their second singles I think but the first ones are always smashers.

Do you have any numbers for Rope's first-day numbers split by AM, PM and Eve? You really need to keep in mind that #29 today and #29 in 2011 is about 150+ spins of a difference. 300 spins used to be near enough to get to #29, right now you need 461. Also take into account the afternoon debut as oppose to the morning one, as mentioned above, which results in about half the spins. So when you really think about it, this will have roughly the same spin-by-spin debut as Rope.

The Foo Fighters aren't capable of letting me down. This is amazing. All hail Dave Grohl!

Love the song, hate that it's the lead single. Their lead singles are usually straight-up rockers, but this one is build up then explosion.
