Noodleman Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Ive heard the album and its shit. 20 songs of bland pretentious rock. 3 songs that are average Chilis songs and 2 rather good chilis songs. Not enough funk very disapointing im not even sure I want to see them in June now thats how disapointed I am with it and I wasnt even expecting much.

Fierce_LiNk Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Ok, lets have no more talk about torrents, please. If you really want the album, wait and buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arab_freak Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 Yes, but it's so tempting to hear the entire thing first. It's like having a big Christmas present in November, just sitting on your desk, cloaked in some sort of tamper-proof wrapping paper, and about once a week the package gets a little bigger and more enticing. But in this case, it never gets bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramar Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 If the Chilli's have jumped on the hate George Bush band wagon then I've lost some respect for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the most generic, unchallenging record I've heard all year. In a word, mediocre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodleman Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I'm guessing you guys aren't hardcore Chilli Peppers fans. I used to be, but more the old stuff really. Any song off Blood Sugar Sex Magick > Stadium Arcadium. Basically I prefer the old funky chilis not the bland average rock band they have become.

Ninty 182 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Mr. Beast, Gnarls Barkley, Muse, Radiohead, Kanye. so much more.Good year for music 2006 will be. I got Mr.Beast. Not too impressed to be honest, despite some good reviews I just found it didn't hold my attention for long enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arab_freak Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 Strange, I can't find Kill For Your Country :S I was also listening to Desecration Smile, and they've removed and changed all the good parts of the song. The bridge is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I'm guessing you guys aren't hardcore Chilli Peppers fans. If hardcore equates to praising everything the band puts out, then no. I'm with Noodleman, I preferred them when they were a funk rock band. From Flea's comments prior to its release, I was expecting a funk record. What we've got instead is the sound of a band struggling for direction. While on one hand, they've attempted to return to their roots by funking things up a little, it's totally counter-balanced by their insistance to 'rock out', and the result is a record every bit as dull as its cover. Frusciante needs to lay off his damn distortion pedals for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolFunkMan Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Hey, need some help here. I want to go to the concert. How much does the Tickets cost? I was searching in the web and I saw ones but were stupidly expensive(95.00 I've found others but are seated tickets and I want standing. ...help. The standard price is expensive, 40 quid... and that's without booking fees and postage! I'd love to see them, but there's no way I'm paying that much! Still, if you're desperate, here you go: See tickets: http://www.seetickets.com/see/event.asp?e%7Cartist=RED+HOT+CHILI+PEPPERS&resultsperpage=20&filler1=see Aloud: http://www.aloud.com/cgi-bin/aloud/search.pl?artist=red%20hot%20chili%20peppers&perpage=25&orderby=date&searchtype=exact&e_artist=The%20Red%20Hot%20Chili%20Peppers And as for hearing the album early, I'd rather wait ta - don't wanna spoil it.

arab_freak Posted May 9, 2006 Author Share Posted May 9, 2006 My "review" of the album: Awesome songs: Charlie Stadium Arcadium She's Only 18 Slow Cheetah (I love the ending) Torture Me Wet Sand Hey Ready Made Especially In Michigan Animal Bar Good songs: Dani California Snow (Hey Oh) Hump De Bump Strip My Mind C'mon Girl Desecration Smile Tell Me Baby 21st Century If Made You Feel Better So Much I We Believe Mediocre Songs: Hard To Concentrate She Looks To Me Storm In A Teacup Death Of A Martian Warlocks Turn It Again A few "funk" elements are sprinkled in a few songs, but that's about it. They also removed what I believe was the best song in the entire album: Kill For Your Country You can go listen to it on Vh1.com for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Its alot of the different styles mixed together, Theres the funk from the old and "by the way" calmness.... ive aquired most of the songs and theres nothing really to shout about, not very outstandingly amazing but good either way.

CVD Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 It's not bad overall. They should have just released a 1CD with all the good and half decent tracks instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
