Many figured that the Red Hot Chili Peppers' days as undisputed alternative kings were numbered after their lackluster 1995 release One Hot Minute, but like the great phoenix rising from the ashes, this legendary and influential outfit returned back to greatness with 1999's Californication. An obvious reason for their rebirth is the reappearance of guitarist John Frusciante (replacing Dave Navarro), who left the Peppers in 1992 and disappeared into a haze of hard drugs before cleaning up and returning to the fold in 1998. Frusciante was a main reason for such past band classics as 1989's Mother's Milk and 1991's Blood Sugar Sex Magik, and proves once and for all to be the quintessential RHCP guitarist. Anthony Kiedis' vocals have improved dramatically as well, while the rhythm section of bassist Flea and drummer Chad Smith remains one of ock's best. The quartet's trademark punk-funk can be sampled on such tracks as "Around the World," "I Like Dirt," and "Parallel Universe," but the more pop-oriented material proves to be a pleasant surprise -- "Scar Tissue," "Otherside," "Easily," and "Purple Stain" all contain strong melodies and instantly memorable choruses. And like their 1992 introspective hit "Under the Bridge," there are even a few mellow moments -- "Porcelain," "Road Trippin'," and the title track. With the instrumentalists' interplay at an all-time telepathic high and Kiedis peaking as a vocalist, Californication is a bona fide Chili Peppers classic.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers...what can I say that hasn't already been said? Well, I can say this: When this LP dropped in 1999 I passed it up...I didn't think they'd ever live up to the promise of their trifecta (Uplift the Mofo Party Plan, Mother's Milk and BloodSugarSexMagic), so when I got back to LA, I took my time copping a CD to check...I eventually did but a string of dark events in 2001 p...

le meilleur album des red hot est pour moi californication , et le live at slane castle en donne une des meilleurs versions.dans un autre registre petite dédicace à Mlle myline Poitevin professeur d'anglais qui m'a fait découvrir les Red Hot en nous faisant étudier Under the Bridge plutôt que les textes rasoirs du bouquin d'anglais.

So i feel like sometimes i am truly blessed with incredible luck.

did you know that anthony had to fight to keep "californication" from being cut from the album during it's creation? it's a good thing he won :) he's also lost a bunch of songs that wanted to keep, including "quixotic elixir", which is a really good song ....but i'm not sure which album it would've been off of... just an interesting fact... :P

So I've been on a RHCP binge. While being a fan of theirs for a long, long time (Blood Sugar Sex Magik was one of my first tapes at the tender age of 9), I've wavered in and out with them over the years. I was fortunate enough to see them live for the first time last April at Coachella and since then I have a newfound appreciation. Recently, I've totally immersed myself in their music for the f...

"I can’t tell you who to idolizeYou think it’s almost overBut it’s only on the riseCalling calling For something in the airCalling calling I know you must be thereThe story of a woman on the morning of a warRemind me if you will exactly what we’re fighting forThrow me to the wolvesBecause there’s order in the packThrow me to the skyBecause I know I’m coming back"--??"Easily"?? by Red H
