Any new album of the Red Hot Chili Peppers is exiting news. Over the years they've shown they're capable of constantly renewing themselves and surprising you record after record with good songs and funky hooks. The Peppers are one of the few acts still around from the alternative revival at the end of the eighties and start of the nineties. So they've proven us enough they're here to stay. You might even call them the Rolling Stones of the alternative generation. This in itself is a small miracle seeing how their career developed. From the get go the Peppers were plagued by drugs and dying or changing band members. Yet in their present setting, with Frusciante back on board, the Peppers have been operating for the last ten years. So stability seems to have come to the band. The last ten years even found each individual member playing better. Both Flea's funk bombs and Frusciante's hooks have improved and Kiedis even learned how to sing. So why doesn't it get to me anymore?
In the days preceding the release of Stadium Arcedium MTV aired a career overview of the Peppers. The first half hour or so found me on my toes. I found my self exited to see those old images of the Chili Peppers, some almost twenty years back, it has really been that long. Even though the footage looks hopelessly dated by today's standards the band had a raw energy that was extremely appealing to the young teenager I was back then. The Peppers gradually progressed in their sound and song material as I grew older, seemingly growing with you. But when they started out they were an explosion of uninhibited sexual Funk/Punk power. I remembered feeling that "Fight Like a Brave" could have been written as a personal anthem for kids like me, remember feeling part of a generation while doing silly dances on "Freaky Styley", I remember my amazement when they released their masterpiece "Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic", we talked about it for months. To sum it up, I noticed becoming melancholic while watching MTV, realizing those days are really over.
So while this new Chili Peppers album truly is a strong effort, it will probably just disappear in my record collection again just as any other album they've did since that time. That has nothing to do with the wealth of the material that is here. I suspect Stadium Arcedium will appeal to a whole new generation of Peppers fans, although one could argue the album should have been condensed to a single disc. In all fairness they play their strengths like they do on any album, Kiedis is still committed to his songwriting, Flea and Frusciante are still churning out those great funky hooks, the ballads are moving as always, but I just rather remember the young punks they were back in the day. I'm getting older, sue me!
