Your right, there are good songs in there but it's not crazy, funky, catchy. I hope the chili peppers get there funk back. It's mostly Chad that's killin me with the toms, Nd the added precision, that is not a good sound for the peppers and it really is breaking up there sound as a band.
Actually something most of late 90's/early 00's pepper fans don't know is that John Frusciante was not a funk guitarist before joining RHCP. His funk style was created by studying mainly Hillel Slovak. Before joinnng the Peppers he was mainly into punk and calssic rock like Hendrix and Zappa. I think that's important to know before judging Josh for not being a funk guitarist.
Although this album was great the first listen, I can't find myself going back to listen to any of these songs (except for Even You, Brutus). They lack that....re-listenability I got from most songs on Stadium Arcadium. This doesn't mean I didn't like the album, though, as I think it's excellent! It's just that Frusciante had that thing. I don't know what it is, but he knows how to work with a track and use his guitar as his voice and can turn any average track into an amazing one.
You made some really good points! People who judge a whole band based on the absense of one musician clearly aren't true appreciaters of music for what it is! Personally I love all of their albums! I feel their music really speaks to me (and no not the lyrics, but the actual music itself). Needless to say, if you're a true RHCP fan, you'll give this album a chance and get off your high horse! you WILL find something in it that speaks to you too! I guarantee it!
Hey, redlanternman,I tend to think that pill mean different - doesn't anti drug thing - it is kind of drug stuff. that way like offering to try their new album. But what does mean a fly?! everebody knows that a fly likes sitting on shit.
This last album isn't awesome how was californication.
Does anyone know what the symbolism is behind the logo on the RHCP new lp???I've heard it like an anti drug thing??Please shed some light on this for me and message me and let me know!!!
possibly the most unbiased review i have ever heard yet you praise the chili peppers the whole time. best review i have heard about any topic. not just because im a big chili peppers fan and i learned how to play all the instruments that i do from listening to them, but because it satisfied me that everything was so unbiased and well explained and how it went over so many aspects of rhcp. awesome job man. will DEFINITELY be looking at more of your reviews.
Hey, nice review! I agree with the most of what you said, even if i think that also 'By The Way' and "Stadium Arcadium" had a lot to give to the fans for the moment they were released and the original-catchy-style that characterize the band and that never leaves. Anyway I love Klinghoffer, for your same reason and most of all for his voice. Well, probably you didn't care anything, but i liked to share my opinion with you :D bye, from Italy (subscribed to your page!!)
@andreesvensson Your stereotypes are retarded, can all Swedish people stop pretending that one person represents an entire country? It's just ignorant. (inb4imahypocrite)
I'm not going to argue with what you think about frusciante but come on dude, Kurt Cobain isn't that good AT GUITAR, there are SOOOOOO many more people better.
@Chrisban93 You Made Me Smile, But Anyway. lol I Grew Up Listening to NIRVANA and RHCP So If I Had To Choose The Best Guitarist's In The World Of course it would be Frusciante and Cobain. Cuz Like I Said There My Faves and In My Opinion Are Better Than The Rest. :)
i just listened to the album their new guitarist is amazing! hes so good, especially jamming out with flea. But i wouldnt say this is their best of the 2000s, by the way was by far the best
@Grungedude93 Hell yeah! By the way is my favorite album from RHCP and i'm liking that this Cd feels more like that album as opposed to some of their others.
Fair review. Good description. As a lifelong chili fan, I am a little stung by the 6. Couldn't have pulled a 7? Anyway, Keep it up man. I'll have to see your other stuff after this one.
I bet when Blood Sugar Sex Magik came out people whined about how they didn't sound like Freaky Styler or Uplift. And you know people whined that they sold out when they made Californication. My point is no matter what they do people will always complain that they don't sound like they used to because they don't understand that music changes over the course of 20 years and that if they remade Blood Sugar every album they would either break up and do other things or put out very uninspired music.
where is the funk ? This is a soul album...come on guys...get with the program you aren't that old yet, lemmy is still bashing out heavy riffs so can you.
Coming from probably one of the greatest chili peppers fans you will ever know, you have to know not a single one of their albums sound at all like any other they're all different so if you don't like it don't listen to it but by my opinion this is a really great album new band entirely and really is a rebirth klinghoffer's an excellent guitarist and made the best possible fit and get over it johns not coming back I honestly don't think he ever will so just get used to the new chili peppers
first of all great review! I want to see what everyone thinks: I get the feeling that they were quite smooth in this album in terms of going all out. But i feel that they are almost waiting for the next album to blow our minds. this one is great, but it's just missing that next level that they usually reach with every one of their albums! Maybe with josh they wanted to introduce the new sound, see what people think, and then bend us over and violate our ear-pussies in the next album....?
why is everyone talking about BSSM, SA and BTW? have you guys heard any of their old stuff like Freaky Styley or The Uplift Mofo Party Plan or Mothers Milk oh and One Hot Minute. Thats the Chilis at their best. To understand the chili peppers and to understand how talented they really are you have to hear those albums. Dont get me wrong i love the chili peppers and i love SA and BSSM but nothing compares to their early days. (And i realise that BSSM is before OHM but BSSM is more popular)
I agree with that it is a great album but no where near being the best album. Stadium arcadium is the greatest album of the peppers. And srry to say but frusciante is untouchable and unreplaceable. And if you dont believe listen to stdm arcdm californication blood sugar sex magic and by the way and you'll see frusciante is just irreplaceable and brilliant. But klingoffer must be respected. Frusciante=respect
have you heard stadium arcadium? you didnt mention it, and i feel like that's their best album by far. this album is probably as good as blood sugar. calcification and by the way being better. i agree with 6 though.
amazing album but to me i still think that stadium is better josh klinghoffer is an amazing amazing amazing guitarist to many people are comparing him to frusciante i think there both amazing guitarists i think klinghoffer will do great with the peppers bringing new stuff to the band
@hi8913 i am assuming you consider rhcp and justin beiber to be the only two options availible...how condescending to tell someone to "leave this world" because they disagree with your purile opinion. Grow up little boy....
I think this album is so incredible... I'll admit that I'm a diehard RHCP fan, but honestly I think songs like, Even You, Brutus?, Ethiopia, and Brendan's Death Song are among the best they've ever written. opinion.
YES! TOTALLY AGREE people are comparing it too much with John-era RHCP...they need to know that this is a totally new band. And they should formulate their opinions based on that.
I was kind of disappointed with this album. They've matured and are reflecting on their sound, but that maturity makes them sound so limited and boring. It gives a sense of tamed and underwhelming power, and that really detracts from the enjoyment of the CD, especially when that certain CD raises the bar of expectation by being hyped as an experimental album from a funky band. It seems to just go through the motions, if I were to compare it to anything, it'd be a watered down Faith No More.
@Threecreation I have to add this this compliment. Awesome reviewer. Very fair, articulate and you knew about the band's context and where they're at. I will definitely be following more of your reviews.
i don't think they will ever top Stadium Arcadium But this is still a great album! more rhcp the better and also I love brendon's death song I think vocally it's anthony's best song yet
1:30 , im 1 of them , i dont want the same songs , but they were more funk rock , little harder, not gay shit soft , if i wanna listen to soft pop , there are many bands for that .. it is my opinion , if u dont like it , u can suck it
Im gonna give the album a good month before commenting in too much detail. I think it needs more than a couple of days, how can you really give it a true rating or review in such a short time.
Its ok, growing on me. I think that the next album if they keep the same line up will be better. Personally Frusciante was definately more instrumental in some songs clearly but atleast its quite fresh.
Have to disagree with the whole thing about them not doing well with other guitarists. Dave Navaro did awesome on One Hot minute, some awesome songs there.
@8GRUM8 I guess there was some communication issues with that statement in the review! D: Sorry I meant to say the Peppers have gone through many guitar changes and have benefited greatly from them in one way or another.
@Threecreation Oh ok. Maybe I just wasn't listening properly ;). Another thing bit of a stretch to say this is the best of the 2000's but your aloud your opinion. Again I need a good month to not have bias to Stadium Arcadium and by the way because I know those albums so well.
they call this album im with you but there isn't any song called im with you or even any lyrics that have the words im with you even in it. ok album but what's with the name in with you?
havent given it much listening time but i personally dont like it too much, some of the songs got a real sort of artsy hipster sound which i dont like at all, they should stay away from indie rock or whatever you call it, that opinions subject to change though
I didn't like it the first listen thru all that much, but it definitely grows on you. In particular, Police Station and Did I Let You Know have been getting a lot of play
@89mega89able oh come on xD There's more trying things wrong with the world than some guy making reviews on youtube. And besides, while I do get a healthy deal of enjoyment out of this, it most certainly doesn't pay for the bills x_x as much as I wish it could
This is a great album, maybe not the best of all of theirs, but you have to compare it to the garbage out there today as far as general rock goes. The chili peppers always have and always will stand out in their uniqueness and ridiculous talent.. If Anthony dropped off the face of the earth, think about it, we would still have one hell of a jazz-funk fusion trio.. I liked your analysis overall, but it deserves a better rating.. This is the best shit out there relative to everything else today.
dude, how cand you say that this album is their best work of the last 10 years and then you rate it as a 6? that makes stadium arcadium a 5? that's just nasty
By all means, I really like this album, it has a bunch of great songs. But only thing, that bites me, is that there is a little lack of guitar, riffs. I miss guitar of Fru of course, but I hope, that Josh will come up to the first plan soon.
@newlifenm you'd actually be surprised. While I kinda thought like you a while back assuming no good could come out of the music industry, there's a ton of great stuff out there just WAITING to be discovered. And that's all I'm here for: to expose bands to people and rate them accordingly (:
I'd give the album a 7/10. Its nowhere near their best but there are few tracks which I think are really good. My fav is Brendan's Death Song!! Love it!
I bought and listened to it in its entirety and can say that as a RHCP fan, I'm pleased. I like a lot of the songs, and it will take a while to get used to, but they're all good. One thing that I didnt like as much was the lack of Johnny Frusciante. Klinghoffer is great, and he did great on this album. It's just that the riffs lose complexity. All in all though, a solid album.
The early sound of the chili peppers have driven my musician ship ever since i picked up the bass. And i have to say, i do miss their old sound. I have come to accept, now more than ever due to their new guitarist, that the sound they once had will only be sprinkled on their music. The chili peppers to me, were rooted deep into funk, punk, and a humor about themselves that never got old. But they've grown up, and they're a different beast. Kudos to the Chili peppers.
@FleaMaster69 dude, seriously just watch an interview of the Chilis in the Stadium Arcadium era. You can see how Flea and Anthony have become "old men", talking really really serious bout their music and then there's John and Chad and they're just like "yeah, whatever. But I was like how bout putting more pow than umpf innit and it worked!" ;D they lost it, entirely. And with John leaving, this band is gonna die. Fast. Josh is good, but he never stays in a band, he constantly moves
@DarkAngelEU The best way in responding to your comment is, you're right, and you're wrong :]
Old men, sure, they're getting old. But as one gets older, one tries to give back. Flea and Anthony have been at this about 30 years, cultivating, and pouring themselves into this band. Though, i can't say that i'm enjoying they're music like i did back during bssm, regardless, they're trying to transform into what they think they should be. Try and do something for 30 years, and see if you change.
@FleaMaster69 I admire they've been a band for 30 years, without starting to suck so hard like U2 or Metallica. The album is still good, but not GREAT like bssm Cali or SA. I just hope Josh can get a little more original (alot of his guitar work sounds like John, prob cause of their collabs etc) and give them back that spark of youth because chili's trying to get philosophical is just... weird :p
You sir, come off as a douche. but i could not know such a thing by one video, so i'll watch more of your stuff :] Because if anything, you're punctual. but i have to agree with cmarshall099.
you fucktard. Try being thirty years old and have this new shity music come from the bands you loved so much back in the day. Today's music is a shame!
I definitely agree with you that this album is about "moments". I don't think there's a single song I really like in it's entirety, but so many parts of them are so cool - like the verses in Even You, Brutus, or the intro to Monarchy of Roses, or the instrumental breakdown in Ethiopia... if only they had the control and guts to pull of a full track like that. I think the album is wasted on "safe" choruses :(
Red hot Chili Peppers my favorite band and I'm With you is a great addition to the chilis collection. Could u review the games new album if ur down to review a rap album
Red hot chili peppers have been my favourite band ever since I first hear them from the early 90's now as a fan you have a lot to expect, now when stadium arcadium came out i was quite disapointed with the 2 cds and only likeing 2 or 3 of the songs on it. When I hear this album was coming out in 2010 I was skeptic on whether to be happy or not. But I have listened to the whole through a few times now and i have say it is AMAZING! this will the soundtrack to the rest of my 2011. A solid 4.5/5
@TheFallenDidntTry Well I do prefer the latter artists you listed, even though I know that you just copy/pasted that from youtube somewhere. yay rock & roll thpirit!
I agree with a lot of your points, I love this album and have been following the Chilies for a while now. I think the only thing for me is that I miss that raw and fun funk feel I was getting from Blood Sugar Sex Magik. I'm sure I'll still be buying this one. Thanks for the review.
Hey Austin- Great review. I've only heard the lead single so far and thus can't make my own judgment on the record. I guess my only curiosity is that you proclaimed this their "best album of the 2000s" yet you only gave it a "6". I find this difficult to understand, as "By the Way" is generally acknowledged (myself included) as a pop masterpiece. What was your personal opinion of "By the Way"?
just listened to the songs on youtube its sounds a good album not great yes i am impressed with there new guitarist but this is not there best album of the naughties in years to come STadium Arcardia will rank as there masterpiecie just like the stones Exile In Main Street or Dylans Blond on Blonde yes i will purchase a copy of I,m With You hope we will not have to wait another 5 years for the next release
you know what man, my initial reaction is completely in line with your review, but some of the songs definitely resonated with me in a way I look forward to revisiting and I think it may grow on me... we'll see!
i really enjoy your review alot, i think you make alot of valid points, my feeling about this album is that it takes some getting use to, some of the songs jump at you and you feel them instantly, but i really feel that some of the songs need more time, it was only at the 4. or 5. time i listened to the album i started to really feel and fully appreciate many of the songs... i would give the album 8 or 9 out of 10... but thanks for the review :)
I agree with you. I think if Frusciante had stayed with the band, the RHCP sound would've changed and probably alienated some mainstream fans. I love JF, but he is so far into experimental music (even borders on techno at times), it might have been even further away from their roots than "I'm With You".
@Threecreation Ha! Funny you noticed that. I saw an interview on here the other day where Flea was talking about reading Jane Eyre and how much he identified with it.
I like what you said about Klinghoffer being more of a rhythm guitarist than a Frusciante-esque funkadelic demigod. I enjoy I'm with You enough; I agree with you about Anthony's confidence and Flea's awesomeness. I think I dislike Even You Brutus? because it feels too similar to their 80's sound, which I don't always enjoy. However, I do like Goodbye Hooray, Factory of Faith, Monarchy of Roses and a few others. Thanks, Austin!
Your right, there are good songs in there but it's not crazy, funky, catchy. I hope the chili peppers get there funk back. It's mostly Chad that's killin me with the toms, Nd the added precision, that is not a good sound for the peppers and it really is breaking up there sound as a band.

YES! TOTALLY AGREE people are comparing it too much with John-era RHCP...they need to know that this is a totally new band. And they should formulate their opinions based on that.

I was kind of disappointed with this album. They've matured and are reflecting on their sound, but that maturity makes them sound so limited and boring. It gives a sense of tamed and underwhelming power, and that really detracts from the enjoyment of the CD, especially when that certain CD raises the bar of expectation by being hyped as an experimental album from a funky band. It seems to just go through the motions, if I were to compare it to anything, it'd be a watered down Faith No More.

Im gonna give the album a good month before commenting in too much detail. I think it needs more than a couple of days, how can you really give it a true rating or review in such a short time.
8GRUM8 6 months ago
Its ok, growing on me. I think that the next album if they keep the same line up will be better. Personally Frusciante was definately more instrumental in some songs clearly but atleast its quite fresh.
Have to disagree with the whole thing about them not doing well with other guitarists. Dave Navaro did awesome on One Hot minute, some awesome songs there.
8GRUM8 6 months ago
@8GRUM8 I guess there was some communication issues with that statement in the review! D: Sorry I meant to say the Peppers have gone through many guitar changes and have benefited greatly from them in one way or another.
Threecreation 6 months ago
@Threecreation Oh ok. Maybe I just wasn't listening properly ;). Another thing bit of a stretch to say this is the best of the 2000's but your aloud your opinion. Again I need a good month to not have bias to Stadium Arcadium and by the way because I know those albums so well.

This is a great album, maybe not the best of all of theirs, but you have to compare it to the garbage out there today as far as general rock goes. The chili peppers always have and always will stand out in their uniqueness and ridiculous talent.. If Anthony dropped off the face of the earth, think about it, we would still have one hell of a jazz-funk fusion trio.. I liked your analysis overall, but it deserves a better rating.. This is the best shit out there relative to everything else today.

By all means, I really like this album, it has a bunch of great songs. But only thing, that bites me, is that there is a little lack of guitar, riffs. I miss guitar of Fru of course, but I hope, that Josh will come up to the first plan soon.

I bought and listened to it in its entirety and can say that as a RHCP fan, I'm pleased. I like a lot of the songs, and it will take a while to get used to, but they're all good. One thing that I didnt like as much was the lack of Johnny Frusciante. Klinghoffer is great, and he did great on this album. It's just that the riffs lose complexity. All in all though, a solid album.
smp894 6 months ago
The early sound of the chili peppers have driven my musician ship ever since i picked up the bass. And i have to say, i do miss their old sound. I have come to accept, now more than ever due to their new guitarist, that the sound they once had will only be sprinkled on their music. The chili peppers to me, were rooted deep into funk, punk, and a humor about themselves that never got old. But they've grown up, and they're a different beast. Kudos to the Chili peppers.
FleaMaster69 6 months ago 12
@FleaMaster69 dude, seriously just watch an interview of the Chilis in the Stadium Arcadium era. You can see how Flea and Anthony have become "old men", talking really really serious bout their music and then there's John and Chad and they're just like "yeah, whatever. But I was like how bout putting more pow than umpf innit and it worked!" ;D they lost it, entirely. And with John leaving, this band is gonna die. Fast. Josh is good, but he never stays in a band, he constantly moves
DarkAngelEU 6 months ago
@DarkAngelEU The best way in responding to your comment is, you're right, and you're wrong :]
Old men, sure, they're getting old. But as one gets older, one tries to give back. Flea and Anthony have been at this about 30 years, cultivating, and pouring themselves into this band. Though, i can't say that i'm enjoying they're music like i did back during bssm, regardless, they're trying to transform into what they think they should be. Try and do something for 30 years, and see if you change.
FleaMaster69 5 months ago
@FleaMaster69 I admire they've been a band for 30 years, without starting to suck so hard like U2 or Metallica. The album is still good, but not GREAT like bssm Cali or SA. I just hope Josh can get a little more original (alot of his guitar work sounds like John, prob cause of their collabs etc) and give them back that spark of youth because chili's trying to get philosophical is just... weird :p

I definitely agree with you that this album is about "moments". I don't think there's a single song I really like in it's entirety, but so many parts of them are so cool - like the verses in Even You, Brutus, or the intro to Monarchy of Roses, or the instrumental breakdown in Ethiopia... if only they had the control and guts to pull of a full track like that. I think the album is wasted on "safe" choruses :(

Red hot chili peppers have been my favourite band ever since I first hear them from the early 90's now as a fan you have a lot to expect, now when stadium arcadium came out i was quite disapointed with the 2 cds and only likeing 2 or 3 of the songs on it. When I hear this album was coming out in 2010 I was skeptic on whether to be happy or not. But I have listened to the whole through a few times now and i have say it is AMAZING! this will the soundtrack to the rest of my 2011. A solid 4.5/5

Hey Austin- Great review. I've only heard the lead single so far and thus can't make my own judgment on the record. I guess my only curiosity is that you proclaimed this their "best album of the 2000s" yet you only gave it a "6". I find this difficult to understand, as "By the Way" is generally acknowledged (myself included) as a pop masterpiece. What was your personal opinion of "By the Way"?

I agree with you. I think if Frusciante had stayed with the band, the RHCP sound would've changed and probably alienated some mainstream fans. I love JF, but he is so far into experimental music (even borders on techno at times), it might have been even further away from their roots than "I'm With You".

I like what you said about Klinghoffer being more of a rhythm guitarist than a Frusciante-esque funkadelic demigod. I enjoy I'm with You enough; I agree with you about Anthony's confidence and Flea's awesomeness. I think I dislike Even You Brutus? because it feels too similar to their 80's sound, which I don't always enjoy. However, I do like Goodbye Hooray, Factory of Faith, Monarchy of Roses and a few others. Thanks, Austin!
