This is probably the most immediate and hooky and sentimental Pearl Jam album there is. I'm sure I will enjoy this a lot when it's officially released. My worry is if these immediate hooks will have staying power or if they're more like candy you get sick of.

I don't think he's saying it sounds like Foo Fighters. I think he is saying there is a "sameness" to the songs like the Foos are known for.
