Red Hot Chili Peppers

John is a guitar god
And another random fact that makes him so great is that he did the back up vocals on the By the way Album and to me the back up vocals made the album what it is.


And about metallica people are stupid
And don’t get real metallica fans
 
Good Lord,

I just listened to Hump de Bump. I think I must have skipped over it or something back when listening to Stadium Arcadium, but this song showcases what a redundant, lame band they really are. You know what it made me think of? Old Aerosmith. Different style, of course, but the creative integrity (or lack thereof) seems to be about as strong as garbage pop metal. This is a band that is right now simply following a set routine. A purely mechanical process. Shameful.
 
I made my guitar lessons dude mad because he said to burn a cd with ten songs I wanted to learn and I put CrossroaRAB Blues on there. :D
 
i saw it on wikipedia a while back hehe it's quoting from an RS interview keidis gave last may.

apparently flea is in school at USC (funny enough his daughter should be hitting uni around this time too). frusciante is focusing on his solo career. keidis is a new dad. chad smith seems to be all over the place, some jazz band in japan, along with something cheeseball supergroup with the half of van halen that doesn't have that name and joe satriani.

either way i think it's time put the socks back in the drawer. i'm still REALLY anxious to hear flea's proposed solo album, he's only been hinting at it for the better part of a decade now.
 
One of my favourite banRAB, and a huge influence to my drumming.

Their Greatest Hits album is brillient, it just shows their talent and diversity. Favourites are probably Scar Tissue, Californiacation, Save The Population and The Zephyr Song.
 
That's certainly possible... The Beach Boys and The Beatles were keeping a close watch on what each other were doing at the time.... Rubber Soul influenced Pet SounRAB, which in turn influenced Sgt Peppers.
 
yeah i suppose but it's still only on a minority of their tracks. i know at this point alternative rock has little to no meaning but back in their day Jane's fit that bill to a T. Stephen Perkins is too much of a monster drummer on those albums to settle into the pocket and while Avery is a phenomenal bass player capable of cutting deep grooves they just don't feel funky to me.

when i dug out that clip for 'nobody's weird like me' last night i also found a bunch of rhythm lessons hosted by Chad Smith with Flea on the side to fill things out. they dissect what a funky rhythm section is all about and while those two guys can slip into a funky groove smoother than water comes out of a tap at the drop of a hat, Jane's never got that funky. they could get people to free their minRAB and bob their heaRAB but they could never get their asses to follow the way the Peppers did.

i can't think of more than 4 Jane's tunes that i'd call funk metal. stop / been caught stealing / idiot's rule / standing in the shower thinking, hardly enough to categorize the band especially when they've got superior songs in different styles.
 
I can't argue with you. For example being a terrible lyricist....at least give me a shred of proof or example to back up your opinion...
 
yes he is a genius.

dude what kind of drugs are taking?

At any rate, I think John would be getting a lot more attention if he'd been making solo albbums long before he joined RHCP seeings how they are slowly becoming a tad bit overrated. or rather their latest albums aren't too great as everyone claims they are.
 
The song that hooked me when I was younger was 'Can't Stop'. Then I bought the Greatest Hits CD and couldn't get enough of songs like 'Suck My Kiss' and 'Higher Ground' and dug deeper...
 
Is this a rhetorical question?
boo boo said:
I get picked on a lot because I don't display a "don't f*ck with me" persona like some other moRAB do.
I can take being the butt of peoples jokes, because I'm used to it and I tend to play along. But I don't accept direct insults from anybody, and if you intimidate me enough you will certainly regret doing so. So yeah you had your fun, but you've already annoyed Corey with it so you need to cut it out.

Look man, I know i probably went a bit OTT its sound It doesnt really matter whether u were a male or female in first place , were here to talk about music after all.



Stop being a smart arse, I was banned from this site from a week and it didnt change anything. I will always speak my mind.

I liked it. They keep changing directions. This album has a bit more of a relaxing tone to it. Puts me to sleep. In a good way.
