I'm enjoying the new record, it doesn't sound like a "new" band or reinvent the wheel but it does feel like they've hit reset a little and gone back to a 90s alt rock sound; I wouldn't be upset with an album this decent from Pearl Jam at this point

His voice is too high in the mix to truly replicate the old sound but the album does have a sort of lost 90s outtakes vibe. It's a perfectly acceptable effort (good even) for a band this far into their career but I don't hear a single or a signature tune that matches prime 90's Foos. Rescued probably matches some of the better 00's radio friendly efforts. I doubt I'll return to it but hardcore Foo fans should be happy.

People on music forums are complaining.

I would say I really liked about half of it, and the rest kind of goes in the bucket of the Foo Fighters songbook recycled.

I should clarify I didn’t dislike any of it, but I wasnt exactly banging down the door to hear it again. I just started Ben Harper’s album which is much more interesting thus far at least for me.
