Not bad!
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by smuj83

Advantages: Great!
Disadvantages: Few dodgy songs

I'm not really much of a rock/indie person, but I had heard the chili's Under the bridge before and I'd also heard scar tissue, so I though I'd but the album to see what it was like, and although under the bridge isn't on it, I was very impressed! Its not too heavy and they actually sing rather than some of these american rock bands who kinda scream! Its the perfect album for the car or chillin' in your room, its not really a party album. I've also ... Read review

Advantages: Brilliant lyrics, refreshing sounds
Disadvantages: None

...them odd tangy bit! The Track Californication is brilliant:good,catchy lyrics,fantastic video,a good beat and a mellow flow to get you going.Many of the other tracks that have been released are similar in the respect they are great soothing songs yet all the others have a quality about them!This is a quality that i have not seen topped in a mellow,chillout album such as this for a long time! Cool artwork on the inlay also attracts you! A ... Read review

From out of the wilderness
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by mrbibbly

Advantages: Brilliant,visionary,sweet and pleasent
Disadvantages: Old-time fans may not be convinced...

After what seemed like forever, after splitting up rumours, after the conflict of interest with their guitarist (Dave Navarro), and after the virtual resurrection of their BSSM guitarist John Fruciante, this album was born. I have been into the chili peppers for about 10 years and nothing could prepare me for the sheer beauty and fragility of this album. After their full 18 year history of death-defying punk/funk music, this almost folky rock album ... Read review

I Love This Chuffin Album, Beauty by the Chili's
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by JEStevens

Advantages: All OF them
Disadvantages: None Of Them

This was the first Chili Peppers album that I bought after having listened to half a dozen tracks from it during a school skiing trip on a cassette player (which gives an idea of how long I've had this thing). The album 'Californication' can be argued to be the most successful album of the chilis repertoire, indeed many people think this is only the second or third album by the band, not knowing the band much earlier, more funky sounding albums. The ... Read review

excellent
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by eleanor27

Advantages: catchy tunes and original songs.
Disadvantages: a couple of not so good tracks

red hot chilli pepper's latest album has been immensely popular. the latest single released from it, the title track 'californication', has done well in the charts too, and probably the most famous single from the album, 'scar tissue' is very well known. the album is a good mix of soft and loud, angry and sensitive and melodic and rocky. the lead singer anthony keidis has a wide vocal range and a distibctive voice, and along with the other band member's ...

You mean you dont have it
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by CaptainMoo

Advantages: Not a single bad track on the album. Almost all tracks are excellent!
Disadvantages: None

My favorite album of all time. It beats Nirvana, AC DC or anything else like it. There are two reasons this is my favorite album of all time: 1) The songs are excellent beyond belief. 2) There is not a single song on the album (there's 15 of them) that I don't like! With tracks ranging from rock to funk to heartfelt melodies this album has something for everyone. 'Scar Tissue' is a very moving and beautiful song whilst 'get on top' is ... Read review

Californication
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by fionad86

Advantages: not one dud song on the cd
Disadvantages: not as up tempo as some of their other stuff

A well-versed fan of Red Hot Chilli Peppers might disagree but I think this is by far the best album that the band have produced (even better than their greatest hits). It has the perfect mix between laid back serious songs and faster paced jump-around songs. A special mention has to go to 'Scar Tissue' and 'Otherside' which will forever remind me of the years of teenage angst I spent listening to them. Those who like their music a bit more lively ...

Back to their best
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by badcrumble

Advantages: Funky, sexy and cool
Disadvantages: Lacks a real hit like Under The Bridge

That the Chili Peppers still exist is nothing less than a miracle. Their original guitarist died from a heroin overdose, second six stringer John Frusciante left after ground-breaking single Under The Bridge and nearly went the same way, and singer Anthony Kiedis admits to fighting a continuing battle against the drug. Little wonder than this, their eighth album, should be so downbeat. Yet it's a mood that suits the harmonies and contemplation ... Read review

Are they as good as they used to be
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by moonbright

Advantages: Good mix of songs
Disadvantages: Can't think of any

In their new album "Californication" you can tell by the style of the songs that the group is becoming more mature and talented. I personally enjoy and like the song "Scar Tissue" as it reminds me of my holiday last Summer. The cover of the CD is very colourful adn attractive. The CD is well worteh the £12.99 I paid for it, I would really resommend this album to anybody who is interested in the Red Hot Chilli Peppers nad is into Indie music. I ... Read review

Hot peppers!
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by Biffa

Advantages: Great music!!
Disadvantages: Unhappy neighbours

To be honest, I bought this album for one track - Otherside- thinking that the rest of the album would be somewhere between crap and ok. But I was so wrong! The whole album is excellent! My favourite track is of course Otherside, but the rest of the album is just as good, especially Californiacation. Yes, there are some naught lyrics in amongst the track listing, but if you listen to the lyrics properly you'll see that they are there for a reason ... Read review

Sufer Rock still rules
Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers by JohnnyBravo

Advantages: Back at their best
Disadvantages:

This album has been a long time in coming, and I'd have to say that after the classic Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik this has to be the best Chilli Peppers album ever. They give you your moneys worth with a total of 15 tracks, not a weak link in site. From the soulful chart success "Scar tissue" and "Around the World" to the thoughtful "otherside" and witty title track "Californication", this is a must for all Chilli Peppers fans. This album is lyrically ... Read review
