By the Way Review

By the Way Feature

• RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS BY THE WAY

When the Red Hot Chili Peppers first appeared smeared in neon body paint with socks dangling precariously from their wieners, even the most faithful funk-metal convert couldn't have conceived they would be around some 20 years later, carrying on in much the same fashion. Despite a long history of tragedies and personnel upheavals, the California quartet's eighth album is mostly business as usual--and business, as usual, is quite good. The title track, "By the Way," is a powerful, bruised piece of slap-bass and intermediary white-boy rapping. "Universally Speaking" pays sweaty, soulful tribute to singer Anthony Kiedis's hometown of Grand Rapids. And "Lemon Trees on Mercury" sounds eerily like it could have been lifted from 1984's Freaky Styley. The band's reliable eclectic side, meanwhile, surfaces on the Latin-flavored "Cabron" and moody "Venice Queen." But the biggest surprise is "Tear," a masterful homage to the Beach Boys that suggests the Chili Peppers' perpetual state of arrested development may someday lift. --Aidin Vaziri 2002 album.

Stitches

Stitches Review

'This is pepper 2.0, a new chapter, a new beginning, it feels amazing.
Stitches is the first chapter in the best music, times and memories
we've ever made, we've scratched music's back and now music is
scratching ours, it feels good!!!!!!!! Stitches is the tip of the iceberg.'
~Yesod Williams (Drums)

Featuring the single Drunk Girls, 'A song that revisits the perfect moment when the hottest girl from back in the day stands before you, (the one who never gave you the time of day) with a faded glow now equalized by one too many and all she wants is you! Will you
escape with the fame and glory or suffer the wrath of the ultimate
'Drunk Girl'?' ~Bret Bollinger (Bass/Vocals)

Who Killed Sgt Pepper Feature

• Rock

Recorded in early & late 2009 between Iceland & Berlin with a US tour in between, the Brian Jonestown Massacre move forward with this new full length album "Who Killed Sergeant Pepper ?". Working with musicans of the likes of Will Carruthers (ex Spacemen 3 & Spiritualized) , Unnur Andrea Einarsdottir (who recorded vocals on the last BJM album) and other musicians from France, Germany and Iceland, this is the band's most 'multicultured' release to date, while still retaining their trademark style throughout the course of the album. The 13 tracks ranging from the ambient bhangra beats to rock to shoegaze to gypsy influences of Eastern Europe music & then back again to the subliminal all tinged with the bands trademark psych.

Stadium Arcadium

Stadium Arcadium Review

Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers calls the band’s first new album in four years, Stadium Arcadium, the most-anticipated album of the spring, "the best thing that we’ve ever done…. There’s this weird kind of sublime, subliminal undercurrent that is suggestive, in a spirited way, of our earliest records." Exuding all the passion, energy and funked-up rock that have made the Red Hot Chili Peppers one of the most popular bands in history, the 2-CD Stadium Arcadium, simply put, will knock your socks off.
