The Foo Fighters have been pretty busy prepping for the release of their upcoming album Concrete and Gold, due out next month on the 15th. They have put out song after song after song, including one with a video now titled The Sky is a Neighborhood (which can be viewed above).
This song definitely has a lot of that Sergeant Pepper vibe that front man Dave Grohl was mentioning when it came to the overall sound of the upcoming album. I hear Beatles influence plastered all over it, but with a lot more balls and edge to it than the Fab Four would have used back in the day. It has that laid back kind of melodic groove that you would have heard out of the later era Beatles for sure.
The video definitely has some psychedelic 90's feel to it, but in such a way where it doesn't feel like the band is stuck in the past. You can tell some thought was put into it, especially in the ways it correlates to the message of the song. It mesmerizes you and sucks you in, taking you on an interesting ride to say the least.
