"Your Favorite Toy" is the twelfth studio album by American rock band Foo Fighters, released on April 24, 2026, through Roswell Records and RCA Records. It is the band's first studio album to feature drummer Ilan Rubin and follows their 2023 album "But Here We Are". The album was announced on February 19, 2026, alongside the release of its title track. Frontman Dave Grohl described the song as influential in establishing the overall direction and tone of the record after a period of experimentation. "Your Favorite Toy" was recorded primarily at Dave Grohl's home studio, with additional sessions taking place at the band's Studio 606 facility in Los Angeles. It was co-produced by the band and engineer Oliver Roman, marking the first Foo Fighters album since "Sonic Highways" in 2014 not to involve co-production by Greg Kurstin. The preceding album, "But Here We Are", was created following the death of drummer Taylor Hawkins, with Grohl performing the drum parts during its recording. During 2024 and 2025, the band developed new material that eventually evolved into a set of more energetic songs following the creation of the title track. The album also marks the first Foo Fighters studio release featuring Ilan Rubin, who joined the group after touring lineup changes following Hawkins' death. Rubin and Grohl recorded rhythm tracks live without the use of a click track, with other members overdubbing their parts afterward. The album has a total length of 36 minutes and 26 seconds, making it the shortest Foo Fighters studio album to date, slightly shorter than "Medicine at Midnight". Early descriptions of the album characterize it as a return to a more high-energy rock style, with uptempo songs reminiscent of the band's earlier work while maintaining the melodic alternative rock sound present throughout their career. In the lead-up to release, short audio excerpts from several tracks were shared on the band's social media platforms in February 2026, followed by longer previews posted on their official website. The title track, "Your Favorite Toy", premiered on February 19, 2026. The band also announced a world tour scheduled to begin in mid-2026 in support of the album.
