Foo Fighters 'like a mixed reaction'

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl has claimed that he likes it when his music receives a mixed reaction.

Speaking to MTV News, Grohl explained that he isn't upset about the response to the band's new single 'Wheels'.

"We kind of took it in this direction that we haven't gone before, which, as a band, is exciting," he said. "You do a song like 'Wheels' and people go, 'Really? That's the Foo Fighters?' People get all scared. 'Oh no, is that the direction they're going?'

"It's one of those songs that our biggest fans hate. I like that we have songs that lots of different people either enjoy or dislike."

'Wheels' appears on Foo Fighters's Greatest Hits album, which will be released on November 3.
