Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers Reviews

The Red Hot Chili Peppers newest cd Californication is an unbelievable cd. Almost all of the songs on this cd are worth listening too. In my opinion, there is not one bad song on this album. The Red Hot Chili Peppers really scored a big one by writing this album. They seemed to be fading off the record charts and had not come up ...  Read the complete review

With the bloodsugarsexmagik line-up back together this album could not be anything but good. Not really as hard or as funky as BSSM but still an absolute classic. Rick Rubens production is once more perfect really blasting out Fleas base lines. John Frusicante guitar work has come on a lot, and to me, is a pleasent change from what ...  Read the complete review

This is the first Red Hot Chilli Peppers CD I have bought or heard. I had heard some of their songs on the radio and on MTV and that's why I bought it. I knew they had a reputation for being outrageous but I didn't know what to expect. What I got (barring on or two tracks) was a brilliant rock and funk album. ...  Read the complete review

The Chili's have done it again with another stunning album. Unlike 'Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik' this one is mainly along the lines of being pure Rock. The tunes featured on this albulm go from the relaxing kind like "Road Trippin'" to the heavier tunes like "Otherside". The album maintains a constant ...  Read the complete review

I bought this album a couple of months ago and have been listening to it ever since . I think every single one of the songs on this album is catchy and you cannot helpbut humming along with the melodies . There are a few songs that I like in particular though : 1)Californication ; what a great song the lyrics are really fluent ...  Read the complete review

For a band who spend a great deal of their stage time partially or fully naked Californication is a damn fine album! Very few bands accomplish using a solitary lead guitar, leaving the bass to not only compliment the percussion but hold the main rhythm of a song.However the Chillis accomplish this very well.Songs such as Parellel ...  Read the complete review

Here we see a new side to the band, a more mature, mellow side, that I find refreshing and altogether a wise move for the band. This album has for me brought about a completely different side to the Chili?s but one that is equally good, if not better, My favourite tracks on this album would have to be Scar tissue, Otherside ...  Read the complete review

Calfornication is the latest album by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and in my opionion is the best, but only just. It carries on in distinctive style of the Chilli Peppers last album, with their usual combonation of big beat, bass, rock and of course the obligatory ballad. The album starts off in a rocking way, the first track being ...  Read the complete review

I'm more of an indie and dance music guy, and I'm not usually inclined to buy a single or an album when I've only heard it once. But when I heard Californication, it struck me that it was a fantastic album. So off I went into town and bought it. Californication is mostly ballads and soft rock like Scar Tissue, the ...  Read the complete review

This is one of those albums that you don't like the sound of at first, but, once you get into it, cannot stop listening to. It is full of gorgeous sad harmonies and the singer's voice is soothing and makes you feel like you're on a beach far away in California... I prefer the first part of the album, as it is calmer ...  Read the complete review

Before they released this, many people thought the Chilis were either weird or highly immature. But sadly, taking this break between albums has left them a little too grown up, yet still producing a great new record. Seeing young kids buying this has me a little worried. There is a good chance they have no idea what the word fornicate ...  Read the complete review

I think I know you all well enough by now to be nothing but totally honest with you. I have never claimed to be a fan of the Red hot chili peppers. Don't ask me why, they are just one of those bands that I new existed through hearing their singles but had never been bold enough to go out and buy one of there albumns. ...  Read the complete review

A slight change of direction for the Chilly's but definatly for the better. Ok, granted, the Red Hot Chilly Peppers have never exactly been one of the heaviest or most intense sounding bands in the business, they have however always been one of the most pioneering and revolutionising bands in the business. Their blend of ...  Read the complete review

This is the first RHCP album that I have ever bought, not that I am not a fan, but you know how it is.. although you like some of the songs you never quite get round to buying the album, but this one was different. Scar Tissue alone, I felt was worth the money for the CD and I was very pleasantly surprised by the mix that the peppers ...  Read the complete review

This new album from the red hot chili peppers is great. It's mellowed out but it hasn't got too mellow. The whole album is really good but some of the songs stand out such as Scar Tissue and Californication. This album is really good for chilling to and it's pretty laid back. It is well worth the money, I'd recommend it ...  Read the complete review

This album has been a long time in coming, and I'd have to say that after the classic Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik this has to be the best Chilli Peppers album ever. They give you your moneys worth with a total of 15 tracks, not a weak link in site. From the soulful chart success "Scar tissue" and "Around the World" ...  Read the complete review

I got this album for free because of a promotion with my mail-order music club. I liked most of their songs, so I thought that this album would be a laugh. To my surprise, it is decidedly average. Songs like ‘Otherside’ and ‘Scar Tissue’ are classics, ‘Californication’ is quite good, and the rest are ...  Read the complete review

At last a good red hot chili album. This is the first good effort by the band since Blood sugar sex makic. Indeed this is softer and less sexy than previous albums, but still retains the amazing melodies that other bands find hard to repeat with the regularity that the peppers pump them out at. You will go back for more in this album ...  Read the complete review

I must admit, I bought "Californication" as I have seen much of the Red Hot Chilli Peppers on MTV2 with great songs such as "The Other Side" and "Scar Tissue". For this reason, it was a little bit of a disappointment to find that few of the songs on the album are like these hit songs and that the rest of ...  Read the complete review

When i first heared this album i thought, " wot the f*** is this s***?" but i soon realised it was actually a great album. It is a long album so it will keep u occupied for a while. The songs that stand out are probably - scar tissue - otherside - around the world - get on top - purple stain and californication. With these ...  Read the complete review
