Foo Fighters & Violet Grohl's Albums


Listen Later

Rock is having big viral moments, including a father and daughter releasing albums spring 2026. Foo Fighters put out their 12th album Your Favorite Toy, and Violet Grohl (eldest daughter of frontman Dave Grohl) reawakens '90s punk/grunge in Be Sweet to Me. I review both albums, tying personal effects curating the new songs.
