More Info Than You Will Find Anywhere Else

Yes, it's true that there is probably more detail than many people will want to know about punk rock and you may not agree with all of the authors opinions as he discusses each album and track (The Colour and the Shape is a great album start to finish!), but if you are the kind of person that looks for magazine articles to learn more about Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters, you will get a lot of insights within this book that you won't find anywhere else. No question, you need to be a big fan of the band to get this book, but I'm guessing you must be or you wouldn't be looking for this book anyway. The author did his homework and extracted comments from many sources throughout Dave Grohl's entire career to give a lot of behind the scenes information. I enjoyed the book enough that I wish it had been longer and covered their recently released album. I recommend it for the die hard fan that is looking to get the inside information that they haven't been able to find anywhere else.
