FOO FIGHTERS: THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE Third Album (1999)

FOO FIGHTERS: THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE Album cover

There Is Nothing Left to Lose is the third studio album by the Foo Fighters, released on November 2, 1999, through Roswell and RCA Records. It marked the first appearance of drummer Taylor Hawkins, and is often seen as a departure from the band’s previous work, showcasing a softer, more experimental sound. Vocalist and guitarist Dave Grohl has stated that the album was “totally based on melody” and that it might be “his favorite album that they’ve ever done.” The album was recorded using only three musicians, Grohl, Hawkins, and bassist Nate Mendel.

There Is Nothing Left to Lose won the Grammy Award for Best Rock Album in 2001, marking the band’s first ever Grammy win. The band would go on to win the Grammy for Best Rock Album for three of their next four studio releases (One by One; Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace; and Wasting Light).

There Is Nothing Left to Lose is Foo Fighters‘ first album to be entirely released and marketed by RCA Records since their departure from Capitol Records after the release of The Colour and the Shape two years earlier. Their two previous studio albums, originally distributed by Capitol, were since then distributed by RCA.
