"DOA" is the second song released as a single from Foo Fighters' fifth album, In Your Honor.

DOA refers to the medical term "dead on arrival". The song reached number one on Billboard's Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart for six non-consecutive weeks. The cover artwork features an Ampeg Dan Armstrong guitar.

"DOA" has also been released as a Rock Band and Rock Band 2 DLC track on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network on December 23, 2008.

The video for the single shows the band in a 360° revolving room and on a train where objects act as if the train is rotating. The band said that the video made them feel ill and they felt like wetting themselves. It was directed by Michael Palmieri.

Another music video was also aired on MTV2 on the program Video Mods that featured Darth Maul, Boba Fett, Darth Vader, and General Grievous in the place of the real band members. The video also featured clips from the video game Star Wars: Battlefront II.
