Review
Double album? Haven’t people learned yet? The industry seems to think that if you release an album that has 2 CD’s it is suppose to make it better, well really, it doesn’t. These stupid double albums are just putting on tracks that were never suppose to make the album anyways. Sure, we’d love to hear more of our favourite bands and artists, but sometimes it’s the wait and the patience that make the next song that much ebtter to listen to.

It’s hard for me to know where to start with this album, but I tihnk the most noticable problem with the album is Anthony Kiedis. I love the guy, but his age is really starting to show. It’s just really noticeable when the band still tries to get ‘funky’, yeah, that shit was cool when you were on drugs, but it just doesn’t have the same effect anymore. The Peppers’ sound has matured a lot over the past 2 decades, and I think they should keep growing. We all appreciate their funk tracks, but that was a different time.

Double the tracks, double the dissappointment, if they just condensed the album to all their ballads, I probaly would’ve scored this album as much as a 4.
