<div style="page-break-before:always; page-break-after:always">To fully embrace the spirit of Medicine At Midnight, the Foo Fighters&rsquo; first album since 2017&rsquo;s Concrete And Gold, you are going to have to dig out your dancing shoes. No, Dave Grohl didn&rsquo;t install a glitter-ball in the control room as they tracked the album; they have not gone disco. Yet, nonetheless, this is a record that will make you move, with an insistent groove that&rsquo;s going to be hard to resist, and one that makes its presence felt when you least expect it. If you have already heard lead single, Shame, Shame &ndash; a playful jam that&rsquo;s borderline Timberlake &ndash; you&rsquo;ll have an idea of what&rsquo;s going on.<img src="https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/6239/589951/6017daf84a2c0/1612176081492.jpg" owidth=649 oheight=954" width="300" />Released on 5 February, the album started out with hard rock ideas and over-sized melodies - Grohl, Pat Smear and Chris Shiflett&rsquo;s guitars laying the foundations. But it really found its sound with Grohl channelling Bowie circa &rsquo;83. Let&rsquo;s Dance was a lodestar for the vibe. &ldquo;What happened was that we went in and we started making a regular Foo Fighters record when things started getting weird...&rdquo; says Smear. &ldquo;It went in another direction...&rdquo;<img src="https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/6239/589951/6017daf84a2c0/1612176081435.jpg" owidth=649 oheight=1153" width="300" />Written and recorded before 2020 as we know it came into focus, Medicine At Midnight is free of all that angst. If you were looking for a 2021 release valve, maybe this is it. Chris Shiflett thinks so. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s definitely what you would think of as an up record,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;I think of it as a Saturday night record. Yeah, it has a vibe for sure.&rdquo;Produced by Greg Kurstin, Medicine At Midnight was written and recorded in an undisclosed location, a rental property that was reportedly haunted and in a state of modest disrepair. Ghosts or not, Smear said it was the ideal location: &ldquo;I am telling you, even if it is a creepy haunted house, recording in houses is so cool.&rdquo;
