This makes me very happy!Noala said:And I have also been listening to Persefone, some form of metal from the small country of Andorra.
I have a friend who used to listen to RHCP. He abandoned them in favor of jazz and hip hop. When we discussed music, he said that: Anthony Kiedis was a bad singer, that their songs were repetitive, and that the lyrics were meaningless.ChippedShoulder said:Yes, yes they areBinnsyboy said:Welcome. They really are awesome, aren't they?ChippedShoulder said:Got into Red Hot Chili Peppers a few months ago, on the advice of a good friend of mine. I now barely listen to much else at the moment, bought Kiedis' autobiography, own almost their entire discography (working on it) and learnt most of it on guitar because Mr Frusciante is fantastic![]()
I saw them live at Manchester a few months ago. As for the 'Scar Tissue' autobiography, it's very interesting, isn't it?And yeah it really made me think of the band in a new way, brilliant read too.
Yeah man I agree. I preferred John, Josh is more of a textural player, but, apparently contrary to popular opinion, I really like the new album and Josh is certainly no slouch, I also really like his collaborations with John, Omission is great.Binnsyboy said:I have a friend who used to listen to RHCP.

As someone who's read the book, you're now gifted with insight into the lyrics of some of their best songs.
And what's your opinion on the new guitarist? While he's not John Frusciante, I think he has talent. He keeps up on stage well, and he supports Anthony vocally in the new album. His voice is quite different (visibly younger) and it really makes some of their songs that much more interesting.
Okay i've quite liked ELO for a while but i had never heard them do such a beautiful song as that. I am in love! (And it seems i now need to search youtube for more of their songs.)Mr.Mattress said:I've gradually become a huge Psychedelic/Progressive Rock fan in the past 2 years. Currently, however, the song I've been listening to a lot is "Shangri-La" by ELO (Electric Lights Orchestra):
