Foo Fighters remain solid as Concrete & Gold Seattle mega-rockers Foo Fighters are back with their brand new album Concrete & Gold [Sept. 15, via RCA]. The eleven tracks were produced by pop producer Greg Kurstin, which is a different route for the band. The sound of the record still remains very Foo-sounding. On the single "The Line," frontman Dave Grohl tells a story about being a satellite searching for life, while the band lays down a vintage rock backbone. The rest of the album is a solid listen all the way through. Check them out on tour as they swing through the United States with big gigs at CalJam and Voodoo Music + Arts Experience. The summer may be over, but it's a good feeling to know the iPods are refreshed with new tunes to last into the fall. The September Playlist makes a good companion for the first bonfire of the season. September 2017 Playlist

Monthly Mix: The Playlist, June 2012
According to Stephen Hawking, time travel is something of a possibility. If someone were to take a glance at the top of this month's Playlist, they might think they were in a time portal back to 1995. June treated us with mysterious happenings and Venus making a transit across the sun, which begs the question "was there something in the stars?"
Two alternative rock heavyweights grace the top 2 spots on June's Playlist, much to our approval. The Offspring kick things off with their radio friendly "Days Go By", the first single off their new album of the same name. Not to be outdone by fellow 90's rock superstars, Billy Corgan and The Smashing Pumpkins are back in the mainstream with an impressive new record of their own Oceania. As Corgan sings on "Inkless", 'the stars are out tonight.'
Perhaps there isn't a more gorgeous and energetic frontwoman in music today than Grace Potter. Her rock outfit Grace Potter & The Nocturnals are fresh off the release of The Lion The Beast The Beat, a pop heavy collection of radio candy. They will be making festival stops this summer at RBC Bluesfest, Summerfest, and moe.down, so be sure to try and check them out.
Brooklyn's Yeasayer could almost be described as "music from the future." The indie trio unveiled the first track off their upcoming album Fragrant World (August 20) called "Henreitta" earlier this month. With a jumpy beat and a synth friendly backbone, this one is sure to get multiple plays all summer long.
It's always nice to get a healthy mix of old and new artists for the Playlist. Safe to say June lived up to our standards. With plenty of alternative rock and chillwave this mix weaves in and out of the eardrums perfectly on the warm summer nights, which would leave time-traveling hero Marty McFly saying "Whoa, this is heavy."
