It's hard to imagine a viable alternative music culture without the Red Hot Chili Peppers at the helm. That is true. With that being said, you probably know how I feel about the commercialization of their music and the homogenization that occurred in their sound after the single "Under the Bridge" transformed them into corporate cash cows. They'd been Sugar Ray'ed. So, for me, the music hasn't been viable since 1991's _Blood Sugar Sex Magik_, which coincidentally was t... MORE
I’ve been fishing through my old record collection again today and look at the gem I found: a Red Hot Chili Peppers shaped picture disc for the single 'Knock Me Down'. Photo #1: Red Hot Chili Peppers Knock Me Down Picture Disc From the 1989 album Mother's Milk, Knock Me Down depicts negativity towards the stereotypically self-centred lifestyle of your typical rock star. The band's opposition is displayed through their lyrics: "If you see me getting mighty... MORE
Come to decide that the things that I tried Were in my life just to get high on When I sit alone come get a little known But I need more than myself this time Step from the road to the sea to the sky And I do believe that we rely on When I lay it on Come get to play it on All my life to sacrifice Hey oh listen what I say oh I got your Hey oh now listen what I say oh When will I know that I really can't go To the well once more time to decide on When it's killin...

My previous post about this disappeared into MOG Space, so here's another attempt. The Red Hot Chili Peppers, after releasing their 2006 album Stadium Arcadium and the subsequent tour which ended in Leeds, UK, in August 2007, decided to take a one-year-break to recuperate and focus on family life and individual projects. Bassist Flea is focusing on his family as well as his Silverlake Conservatory of Music charity, guitarist John Frusciante is to release a solo album l... MORE
Today I saw a headline that said that whites would be in the minority by 2042. WHO CARES?!? Why is it so important that we be the big man on campus? We are all human. Who cares if we're white, black, yellow or purple? As most of you have probably heard, "We're all pink on the inside." Now I'm no political expert, and I never claim to be, but can someone explain to me why this is making headline news? Does anyone else think that it's not the color of our skin that class... MORE
...the response from the show's creator sounds like such a crock of shit, don'tcha think? Nov 19, 11:26 PM EST Red Hot Chili Peppers Sue Showtime LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The Red Hot Chili Peppers on Monday sued Showtime Networks over the name of the television series "Californication," which is also the name of the band's 1999 album and a single on it. The lawsuit alleges unfair competition, dilution of the value of the name and unjust enrichment, claiming the titl... MORE
I'd like to take this time to wish my friends a Merry Christmas by playing a light-hearted take on a Christmas staple, by Our friends, the Red Hot Chili Peppers. This one is from the last Chili Peppers album I ever bought, 1994's _Out In L.A._
Mitch Winehouse contemplates the horror of possibly losing his daughter Amy, Hank Harrison calls his daughter Courtney Love a sociopath, and Anthony Kiedis's dad Blackie Dammett wonders if people will think of him as a 'sicko nutcase'...

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS - READING FESTIVAL, SATURDAY AUGUST 25, 2007 - Rating: 4 stars
Before getting on to the headline act and my main reason for going to Reading Festival this Saturday, a bit of the all-day run-up to their performance.....
We made it to the Reading Festival arena around noon, and to the front barriers at the main stage just as Paramore had started their set. I'd never heard of them before, but my gosh does that woman have a voice! 4 stars.
