Rating: - Up there with Californication + Blood......

This is another masterpiece. It was different but still brilliant. Songs like 'Warped'and 'Aeroplane' are just great. Buy it no question.

Rating: - Different, but class!

An unusal album released by the chili's gives a different slant on their musical abilities. The main feature of this album is the superb Flea popping his bass like no-one else can. A must if you're a chili pepper fan!

Rating: - The best the Chilis have done. Better than BSSM.

This is without doubt the best Chilis album so far. Better than Californication, better than BloodSugarSexMagik. Better than all that came before that. The from the weird opening, through the spinny-outy stuff of Deep Kick, My Friends and Coffeeshop, past the simplistic brilliance of Pea, to the best song the Chilis have written. Tearkjerker, is just sheer genius. A strange departure from funky, groovy tunes, but one that is just too good.

Just buy it. Don't think about anything else, until you have this. Get. Get. Get. Get.

Rating: - Chili's go heavy with Navarro in toe

This 1995 album is by far the "heaviest" (if that is the correct word to use) of all of the Chili's albums, and contains some of their best tracks. Dave Navarro slickly takes the place of rock casualty John Fusciante's imedidiate replacement Arik Marshall and takes the band on a rollercoaster (no pun intended, really) of sound.

The highlight of this album is Flea, giving his bass serious slap n pop treatment in a way that only he can. Songs like "Aeroplane" and "Transending" show that bass really can make or break a song, or it can if Flea is playing it. Chad Smith also beats the skins well, a stunning drummer being consistant rather than breath taking. Anthony Keidis sings well, although his heart does not seem to be as focused as it was in "Blood, Suger...". Navarro plays suberbly, but in his own style, not neccissarily caring if his style will clash with the rest of the band.

A good effort and a fine album, but my personal thoughts are that it is a little too 'anti-Frusciante'. Still, change is always good.

Rating: - Cool beans!

Now this is the best album that the Chili Pepper's have done todate, why! Oh! It's because they have probably have one of the best guitarists in the business join their band, enter Mr. Dave Navarro the former Jane's Addiction guitarist. After listing to this album you can see how much of a difference he has made to the band. Dave takes the Chili Peppers to the for front of rock and produces the music that the band has ever done, its almost if they said Oh my someone can really play here I better consult the text books an polish up! They start with 'Warped' here on the first song if you are familiar with Dave Navarro's work you will instantly smile to yourself. You can just tell the rest of the band are smiling away to themselves Flea now has a guitarist he has always needed. Their second song is 'Aeroplane' which has a kid's chorus and will make you want to dance or at least sing along to full volume with a smile on your face. The other songs that stand out here are 'One Big Mob and Transcending' which is dedicated to River Phoenix.
