Album
Your Favorite Toy
Your Favorite Toy is the twelfth studio album by Foo Fighters, released on 24 April 2026 through Roswell Records and RCA. The band produced it themselves with Oliver Roman, which ends a run of three albums with Greg Kurstin behind the desk. It follows 2023's But Here We Are and is the first studio record to feature drummer Ilan Rubin.
The album was announced on 19 February 2026, alongside its title track. Dave Grohl described that song as the one that set the direction and tone for the whole record after a long stretch of experimentation. For anyone following the band's story, it is a chance to hear a new line-up and a self-directed approach, shaped by that title track's sense of purpose.
