I realize that this is tongue-in-cheek, but honestly, the Foo Fighters
music really feels this safe and banal.
Dave Grohl also knows how to suck. 3 chord songs and just scream into the mic. poo fighters.
Personally I like Dave. He seems to love what he does and he's a great performer. I don't go to FF for deep, meaningful stuff, although some is a bit moody. Mostly they produce fun music and there's nothing wrong with that. If you don't like it, you don't have the listen :)
I listen to lots of other rock, prog and assorted weird stuff, but FF seem to get a lot of plays.
Anonymous, some of the best songs ever written are 3 chord ones. You probably couldn't write a hook to save your life.
Anonymous (3/8), you probably could never write anything approaching a hit. Foo Fighter lyrics are banal and meaningless but Dave Grohl comes up with great melodies and riffs.

Adjective: So lacking in originality as to be obvious and boring.
They seem like a update of the "happy-hour blues band" concept, but for ageing rock fans (I am one) so it's in an arena setting. All good players, acting out the cliche's. I'm not trying to stop anyone from listening to them though.
