    Foo Fighters’ second record following the death of co-frontman Taylor Hawkins, Your Favorite Toy, shows an artist struggling under the weight of overwork.

    Ultimately settling into a safe, at times boring sonic bubble.

    On Your Favorite Toy, it's all loud and all fast all the time. (One notable exception is "If You Only Knew," a relatively straightforward rock song that nonetheless stands out thanks to an excellent hook.) Compounding this problem is the fact that Grohl remains a frustratingly boring lyricist.

    This new music is never offensively bad, but it’s far from convincingly inspired. It’s paint-by-numbers Foo Fighters that you can expect to hear while you wait for “Everlong” at the end of the night.
