Free Music Notes for Red Hot Chili Peppers
Free Music Review: Not your mother's RHCP, but a worthy album
Hit: 5 Stars
Before their songs topped the charts, and became radio and music video classics, before they released Platnum-selling masterpieces like Californication and Blood Sugar Sex Magik, before they sold out arenas the world over, before 50-year-old housewives could hear their songs on the radio and say "isn't this those Red Hot guys?", the Red Hot Chili Peppers were four wild California youths who played in dingy nightclubs, appearing on stage wearing only a sock (over a choice body part...). The Chilis first became known in LA for their unique fusion of funk, rap, and rock (which was unheard-of in the mid-80's). As luck would have it, they were able to secure a record deal, and created their first album in 1984. The album itself was a commercial bust, but was undeniably ahead of its time, and defiantly different then everything else on the airwaves in 1984. Buckle Down, and prepare yourself for the following review
1. True Men Don't Kill Coyotes: Opening the album with a jangly guitar riff, and kicking into a rumbling, gritty hard-rock tune with Anthony Kiedis' snarled vocals. This song has a very gritty, sweaty, garage-band feel to it, which is present throught the album.
2. Baby Appeal: Loosly based on a true story, this song combines energetic, freewheeling rapping with rocking insturmentals, creating a very fun yarn with a memorable chorus. You also can't help but think, "how many other bands sounded like this in 1984?"
3. Buckle Down: Beginning with synthesized noise, the song is a hard rocking tune that has some very interesting insturmentals and strange lyrics.
4. Get Up And Jump: One of Chili's first songs, and one of the finest party songs you'll hear. A very funky, energetic song that opens with a funky salvo, and kicks into a pumping bassline and Anthony's funny nonsense lyrics. Will have you jumping around like a deranged frog.
5. Why Don't You Love Me: This Hank Williams cover feels very much like a song the Chilis would write themselves, with rap-style vocals and very jazzy insturmentals. A dazzling cover, to say the least.
6. Green Heaven: Anthony's political themed lyrics steal the show, which unlike many other so-called "political" songs, are actually thought-provoking. Not what you'd expect from the Peppers, hey? Flea's bass is in top form here, with an amazing bassline that brings life to this song.
7. Mommy Where's Daddy: A very weird number. Features "female" vocals by Flea, and also smooth, jazz style insturmentals. The strangest song you're likely to find.
8. Out In LA: The Chili's first song. This song is a rip-roaring combination of funky and self-refrential lyrics and wildy funky insturmentals. Also features an explosive guitar solo.
9. Police Helicopter: A short song, but a simple one with berzerk insturmentals and only a few vocal lines. Odd but fun.
10. You Always Sing: Even shorter and weirder. Simply consists of Anthony singing "you always sing the same" over and over again with stuff going on in the background.
11. Grand Pappy Du Plenty: A very different kind of way to close an album. It's an all-insturmental track, and feels eerie, gloomy and experimental. A fine ending to the album.
Now that you've heard a little something about the Flea, a little something about the Tree, and something about me, why won't you just buy the album?
