FOO FIGHTERS have released an animated music video for “Chasing Birds“. The song is taken from the band’s latest album, “Medicine At Midnight”, which landed at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Top Album Sales chart with first-week sales of 64,000 copies in the U.S. The Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on traditional album sales.
FOO FIGHTERS previously topped the chart with 2017’s “Concrete And Gold” and 2011’s “Wasting Light”.
23,000 of “Medicine At Midnight”‘s first-week sales came from vinyl LP sales, with CDs and digital albums registering 20,000 each.
“Medicine At Midnight” came out on February 5 via Roswell Records/RCA Records. The LP is a nine-song, 37-minute effort which was produced by the FOO FIGHTERS and Greg Kurstin.
The first single from the disc, “Shame Shame“, was released in November. An accompanying music video for the song was directed by Paola Kudacki and co-stars FOO FIGHTERS frontman Dave Grohl and Sofia Boutella. “Shame Shame“ renders in stunning black and white an interpretation of a recurring dream that’s haunted Grohl since his childhood days.
