I am not even a big RHCP fan. I only own one of and arguably their worst albums (I have One Hot Minute on cassette) but your seething hatred of all thing RHCP’s both confounds and amuses me. Based on some of the band you enjoy, it’s weird to me that they are a (under the) bridge too far. You, my friend have a very refined and nuanced music palette.

Flattery will get you EVERYwhere @TenderLovingKiller® . My wife calls its snobbery - I like your description much better. But, as with most things, she is right.

Hatred is an understatement here.
I loathe them and I cant understand how anyone can tolerate them without some of your brains oozing out one ear.

Here's some lyrics from the release that, when my snobbery raises its head, people go... "Yeah but Blood Sugar Sex Magik" :

From Suck my Kiss:

"K-i-s-s-i-n-g / Chicka chicka dee / Do me like a banshee / Low brow is how / Swimming in the sound / Of bow wow wow / Aw, baby, do me now / Do me here I do allow."

Its such a shame that Anthony Kiedis contributions make me think he's suffering from at Traumatic Brain Injury or that his primary language is Susquehannock and he only learned to speak English in the minutes before recording any track. The musicianship in the band is amazing but the final product is a big peanut riddled turd on a shining silver platter and I just cannot swallow it.

This. I wish I had such a beautiful way with words.

Can you do U2 next? They're my RHCP (who I also dislike).

The Foo Fighters have been ripping themselves off for the past 20 years. Every song in recent memory has the same format of Dave Grohl sings quiet, DAVE GROHL SCREAMS LOUD, drum solo, SCREAMS LOUD AGAIN, final chord fades away.

Also why do they have one song that’s like that as the lead single that you listen to on the radio and think. “That’s ok in a generic it’s the Foo Fighters sort of way” and then the album is a steaming pile of shit. Generic shit, but in a pile and steaming none the less.

U2 – Songs of Innocence - The Feedback Society

U2 release their latest album for free via Apple; Brendan takes a hard look at the music that wants to free us all. (Sarcasm much?) Last week, the popular Irish band U2 announced their new long playing album ‘Songs of Innocence.’ They did so by announcing Oprah-style that everybody should look...

No. Denver.

But I was a freshman in college when RCHP dropped BSSM and even then, during its Zeitgeist, I couldn't' understand it. It makes me instantly question both the sanity and intelligence of anyone professing a love for them/the album. I know that is not fair - but I cannot help myself - they make me go cross-eyed.

Fun little read. Thanks for sharing!

"Guitarist The ‘David Evans’ Edge does a lot of cool stuff where he, like, plays one string a bunch of times in a row but there’s a pedal connected to his guitar so it sounds really echoey and stuff"

Obviously it’s a preference thing but attacking RHCP lyrics is like attacking water for being wet. Lots of bands I am sure you have an affinity for likely have made some questionable lyrical choices. Like I said, I am not a huge fan but for me it’s not important what he is saying but how he’s saying it (in hip-hop parlance they’d call it flow) which seems to jive well with the their funk based rock style. I don’t think anyone was awarding Kedis the Nobel Prize for his lyrical contributions but I don’t hear a lot of people suggesting they should either.
