Thoughts
*Klinghoffer does well to impart his own style
*Klinghoffer plays with no emotion
*Flea can't write a bad bassline
*Anthony Kiedis definitely rhymed "arouse her" with "espouse her"
*The mastering on some of these tracks seems pretty terrible. Like as bad as "Power"
*They seem to have written a Britpop song, which is actually quite good.
*Too much disco-influenced drumming, Chad.
*Now I can theoretically see John Frusciante solo for a relatively cheap price
*Weird usages of distortion, mainly from Klinghoffer, but also on the verses of "Monarchy of Roses"
*Creepy cover art
*Anthony Kiedis needs to lose the awful mustache.
*More songs of the good-very good level than all of Stadium Arcadium
*Better on first listen than By The Way was, but that album was a grower, and I'm not sure this one will be.
