Medicine at Midnight is the tenth studio album by the Foo Fighters. It was released through Roswell and RCA Records on February 5, 2021, after having its release be pushed out of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Produced by Greg Kurstin and the band, the album shows a slight shift in the band’s style, pairing their usual rock sound with elements of dance-rock and pop. It is the final Foo Fighters studio album to feature drummer Taylor Hawkins before his death the following year.

Five singles were released for the album: “Shame Shame” in November 2020, “No Son of Mine” on New Year’s Day 2021, “Waiting on a War” in January 2021, “Making a Fire” in June 2021, and “Love Dies Young” in November 2021. The album received generally positive reviews from critics.
