Group Summary

The greatest of albums! Probably one of the most important in my life and certainly the biggest culprit why I started listening to rock. It came out when I was finishing elementary school and enrolling in high school, so all these songs (yes, even the B-side) are very familiar to me, I knew all the lyrics by heart. I can't even count how many times I've listened to some of the songs: Otherside, Scar Tissue, Californication, Road Trippin', Around the World, Parallel Universe, Emit Remmus... And here I am now - the first riffs of Californication give me goosebumps! The only thing that annoyed me then, and still annoys me now, are Anthony's rap sections. By the way, this is the album with which RHCP change their sound from more funk-oriented to more melodic rock and that brings them the greatest commercial success in their career, although I still think that Under the Bridge is their most famous work. A beautiful beginning, a beautiful end to the album! An incredibly well-rounded album that is rarely found. The title track is one of the songs with the most ingenious lyrics I have ever heard in my life. One interesting thing that I remember commenting on a lot and that was mind blowing at the time - read the title of the song Emit Remmus upside down. :D Now listen to it again - all the guitar parts are recorded upside down. ;) I have much, much, much more to write about Californication, because it is an album that not only marked their career, but also marked a period of my life from which I have many memories. Masterpiece! If only ten out of five were possible, that would be too little!

What the fuck was this? And why?

If anything can cause an ear orgasm - it's definitely this!

This is worse than all the hip hops in the world, combined together.

Get few samples, add 100 "motherfucker" and 10 other curse words, record how you yell to your wife, add sex noises, and there you go - you have an album!
