Chasing Birds is taken from Foos' recent 4/5-rated album Medicine At Midnight. Speaking to Kerrang! last year about its creation, Dave Grohl enthused, "When we finished the album, it was exactly what we wanted it to be. We started thinking about this album and writing it almost two years ago, and we recorded it in a way that we’d never done before; we didn’t sit in a room and rehearse and write these songs. They were all born from these demos that I had been doing where I had decided, 'Okay, it’s our 10th record, we’ve been a band for 25 years, what do we do? Do we make some sleepy acoustic album as we ride off into the sunset of our career, or do we make a fucking party record?’

"And our love of rock bands that make these upbeat, up-tempo, almost danceable records inspired us to make the album that we did," the frontman continued. "We sort of relied on a lot of these really energetic references and influences to put this one together – and we surprised ourselves."
