The only questionable album RHCP made was maybe One Hot Minute (I blame Navarro). Otherwise they are superb. I think some of you may need to tone down the elitest attitude, just saying.....


I mostly agree with this. But Stadium Arcadium simply had too many songs. They could have cut some out and the album would have been better. I don't much care for the most recent one.

They are fricking awesome though. BSSM is one of my top 10 all time.

I just can't handle Kiedis. He is just not a very good singer and his lyrics are often atrocious. The rest of the band are sick, though. I think they took a huge step back when John left again, though. Josh is a solid replacement, but he is no Frusciante.

I think ripping on RHCP's late career output is pretty silly. It's like arguing the Rolling Stones suck because Tattoo You isn't very good.

Though I like Stadium Arcadium, as it plays like a "thank God John Frusciante isn't dead" album. Which, let's face it, was pretty touch and go for a while.
