Foo Fighters Ascend Further with Unexpected Release of New Single
The Foo Fighters are celebrating their 30th anniversary with the release of a new single titled "Today's Song," which has made a significant impact on various radio charts.
"Today's Song" is currently on five Billboard charts focused on radio, including the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, the Rock & Alternative Airplay chart, Adult Alternative Airplay, Alternative Airplay, and Mainstream Rock Airplay.
The single has made a swift ascent, earning one of the fastest ascents to No. 1 in the history of the Rock & Alternative Airplay chart. On the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, "Today's Song" has moved up one space to No. 17, although it has not reached a new peak on this chart this week. The song has, however, climbed as high as No. 5 on the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart.
"Today's Song" has also improved its position on the other charts, reaching No. 3 on the Alternative Airplay chart, No. 5 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, and leaping from No. 26 to No. 19 on the Adult Alternative Airplay tally.
While the release of "Today's Song" marks the first new Foo Fighters music since their 2023 album But Here We Are, there has been no official announcement of an upcoming album associated with this single as of August 2025. The focus around the song is largely on commemorating the band's 30 years and acknowledging past and present band members.
The Foo Fighters remain one of the most popular acts in both rock and alternative music, and "Today's Song" continues to hold the No. 1 spot on the Rock & Alternative Airplay chart. The band's ongoing activity serves as a testament to their enduring popularity and the continued relevance of their music in the contemporary rock landscape.
