Question: of the bands whose sound hasn't changed much, which of those have first songs that don't sound anything like the rest of their music?

Warehouse very much encapsulates a lot of what DMB was before 2009 but it is neither their first hit or the first track on their first album. Ants Marching would be both of these, depending on your criteria of 'hit'.

I wish to god they had continued down this track

I’m by no means a Foos historian, so I ask out of naiveness. But how much of the Foos first album were songs that Dave wrote in his time with Nirvana? If there were ones written after Nirvana disbanded, it seems like most were affected by Nivana’s style. curious how much of his writing for that album was reflected by the type of songs Nirvana wrote (in contrast to the type of songwriter he evolved into)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo_Fighters_(album)

Nine of the songs in the album were composed before or during Grohl's tenure with Nirvana ... The only compositions done after Cobain's death were "This Is a Call", "I'll Stick Around", "X-Static" and "Wattershed".
