Even the glossy final mix of Nevermind has nothing on the unapologetic arena rock of The Colour and the Shape -- it's all polished thunder, rock & roll that's about precision not abandon. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine.

ReviewsRanked #46 in Nme's 1997 Critics' Poll., 6 (out of 10) - "...That's Dave Grohl, a simple rock guy in a simple rock band who occasionally manages to write some really good songs. He'll probably never come up with a godhead masterpiece, but then again, he already played drums on one.", "The first of THE COLOUR AND THE SHAPE is a furious dialogue/duel between old-guard stadium rock and DIY guitar bashing. Plus, former Sunny Day Real Estate bassist Nate Mendel adds artful dimension, throwing in hooks...", Ranked #21 on Melody Maker's List of 1997's "Albums of the Year.", "...The band heard on THE COLOUR & THE SHAPE is not a ragtag slacker unit but a bunch of confident, powerful pros--brawny, metallic, able to shift gears and tempos on a dime....In fact, the album often feels like the new-wave metal Metallica should have but didn't concoct with LOAD..." - Rating: B, 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...COLOUR has a big, radio-ready, modern-rock sound....gives the impression that Grohl is working out some romantic issues--there are lots of relationship tunes both about breaking up and about a new love...", Included in Q Magazine's "100 Greatest Albums Ever"

It was not entirely brand new but it was serviceable with little scratches here and there on the case, and the lyric book was also a bit damage. Other then that the CD serves its purpose and plays songs.
Granted it’s impossible to find a bad Foo Fighters CD but ‘The Color & the Shape’ exemplifies them at their best - ballads, raw rock & even some borderline thrash, this CD has it all.
