Foo Fighters: listen to the new single "Caught In The Echo". A streaming concert has been announced: here's where to watch it

Foo Fighters are back with a new track and have announced a streamed show. The band has released “Caught In The Echo”, the third single from their upcoming album “Your Favorite Toy”, due out on April 24.

The track opens with a vocal line from Dave Grohl that immediately sets an unstable, visionary mood: "This is just a test on a faulty broadcasting system…". It's an opening that suggests a more fragmented, reflective tone compared to the previous singles, "Asking For A Friend" and the title track.

“Your Favorite Toy” will feature ten tracks for a total runtime of 37 minutes. The album was born out of a period of internal transition: it’s the first one recorded since drummer Ilan Rubin stepped in, replacing Josh Freese, who had himself been brought in after the death of Taylor Hawkins.

The recording process followed a method already used in the band's early days: Grohl cut demos in his home studio, which were then developed further with input from the other members. A direct approach that, according to guitarist Chris Shiflett, recalls the immediacy of the band's debut.

Alongside the new release, Foo Fighters have also confirmed that the concert they played on February 22 at St. James’ Church will be streamed online, as part of the Other Voices series produced by Raidió Teilifís Éireann. The show will be available to stream on April 6 at 9:30 pm at this link.

For the occasion, Jason Falkner was on guitar, standing in for the injured Pat Smear. The setlist alternated between classics such as "Everlong" and "The Pretender" and more recent material, including "Of All People", a preview of the new album.
