STILL RED HOT!,
By Chris Pollard (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Californication (Audio CD)
The Red Hot Chilli Peppers haven't released that many albums considering how long they have been together, but you know when they do release an album, it's going to be something special. Californication is the result of a good few year's work, writing, recording and producing. The Chilli Pepper's production mastermind, Rick Rubin, produced this little gem. Actually it's not a little gem, its a big gleaming thing, crying out the words "Im a big gleaming thing!" The Chilli Peppers knew very well what type of album they were making here. It's grand, it can be complex and intricate, and it can be all out funk rock. I'd say the guitar sequences and riffs are one of the most major assets of this album, doing a lot of holding together. The guitar glue can be heard clearly on tracks like 'Scar Tissue', 'Californication' and 'Road Trippin'. In the old days, The Chilli Peppers were influenced heavily by disco, funk and soul acts like George Clinton and the Parliament. Nowadays in their music you can still hear Flea's funked-up bassline and the out of the ordinary rhythms, but its dressed with newer influences, i would say indirectly the Smashing Pumpkins or Nirvana being examples. The Peppers have certainly moved with the times, but remained with their very unique sound. Anthony Keidis' voice has definetley improved over the years. The songs on Californication allow him to do things that he has previously not done very much (ie Actually sing instead of just rapping). There are a lot of very mellow songs onthis album, like 'Porcelain' and 'Road Trippin'. I like the Chilli Peppers when they are mellow. It gives a good break from the hard stuff, and also Keidis' voice suits them very well. The hard stuff is also very good. The melodies on some of the chouruses are brilliant, for instance one of my favorites is 'Get on Top'. The tunes are just great and theres plent of them. You forget how many of these tracks they have actually released- 'Scar Tissue', 'Otherside', Around The World' and 'Californication'- all brilliant songs. One worry is that they might get too commercial. This album's more commercially sounding than all of the others, despite it's great music. I think the Chilli Peppers are sensible though, and they won't sell out. This has been there most successful album to date, and i hope they can keep on doing it.

Peppers are back better than ever!,

This review is from: Californication (Audio CD)
I went and bought this CD this morning and skipped school to go listen to it. It's great! You've probably already heard "Scar Tissue". It's a great song. Other good songs include "Otherworld", "Around The World", and "Easily". Speaking of which, this is easily their best album. Go buy it now!
