Ouch my freaking ears

Advantages: Great album
Disadvantages: Unlistenable

I don't understand how this has so many good reviews,this WOULD be a good album were it not for the constant and rather rather obvious distortion that can be herd quite easily throughout the album, this is not the sort of distortion like you get in electric guitars quite often, that sort of distortion is done deliberately for effect, the distortion that can be herd on this album is down to poor mastering, because somone thought they would make it ...
...up, louder in the recording just makes an album sound like this. There is even a petition to have it remastered http://www.petitiononline.com/RHCPWBCD/petition.html However if you search the net there is an "unmasterd" bootleg version in circulation, this version is actually listenable, in fact I rate the unmasterd version as 4 stars! Don't bother unless you have bad ears! ...

It is exellent

Advantages: I'ts simply amazing
Disadvantages: Nothing

Red hot chili peppers, Californication is one of the best albums I have ever heard, its just as good as blood sugar sex magic if not even better. Its superbly put together and has got so many exellent songs on it. These songs arnt all "punky" either theres a mix of slow acoustic style of music i.e scar tissue and then theres your clasic r.h.c.p songs such as Californication and All around the world! You should defintly go down to your local music ...

Review of Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Californication, excellent.

Advantages: Otherside, Scar Tissue, Californication are particular highlights in the album
Disadvantages:

An excellent excellent album, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are one of my all-time favourite bands, and I have to say that this is one of, if not, THE best albums they have ever produced. Californication, Scar Tissue, and Otherside are three of my favourite Red Hot Chili Pepper's songs, and they are all contained in this album! This album is great if you like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, or are perhaps interested in giving their music a try. If you don't ...

Great album from the Chillis

Advantages: Brilliant
Disadvantages: Might get addicted to it...

Bought this coz it was in the album charts at HMV... so I took it home, put it in the stereo, (as u do), and listened. Bloody amazing! Has some classic tracks on (Scar Tissue, Parallel Universe, Road Trippin', Otherside, and of course, as the album suggests, Californication). All this and some other pretty good tracks, I like Dirt, Saviour, Purple Stain etc... make this one hell of an album. Its one of my favourite albums, and the best Chilli's one ...

Californication, Their Best Album

Advantages: Only £10
Disadvantages: Lyrics Hard To Follow

Californication is the red hot chilli peppers new album, I have just heard their songs and I couldn’t resist buying their album, the best place I found to but their album was in our price for £10, this album contains californication, scar tissue, otherside, easily and around the world, which are my favourites, I feel this is an extremely cheap price for an extremely good album. Also the words to every song on the album come with the Music, in the ...

Terrible

Advantages: coaster
Disadvantages: money

This album is not very good at all. I can not see what all the fuss is about mybe my title was a little missleading as the album is not terrible, just slightly awful. I am not a huge fan of Red Hot Chilli peppers music I must confess but to me this is the worst of the lot. I got it a while ago now from woolies for a tenner which isnt bad. I gave it the benifit of several hearings but to me it was very poor. It carried no cleaver messages and was ...
...a good sing along album but it wasn't.A real poor effort. It is a real shame that this kind of crap makes it onto our shop shelfs taking up valuble space that could be used to house the Papa Roache albums or Limpbizket a real poor shoing. Dont buy it unless you have a strong desire to have an expensive red coaster in your home. ...

wow, this album is sizzling red hot

Advantages: Great songs
Disadvantages: None

Californication really is a very good album, with very good singles released. I am very surprised that none of the released songs did particularly well. Californication and the group have won countless awards for this album, and they are well deserved. I cannot say that I dislike any of the songs on the album, there are ones which are not as good as others but they are still very likable. The album gets off to a very good start, with 'Around the ...

The Chilies have done it again

Advantages: Brilliant for just listening to
Disadvantages: Not good if you're feeling down...

The first time I listened to a Red Hot Chili Peppers album, (Blood Sugar Sex Magik), I'll admit that I found it disappointing. My friends all told me how wonderful they were and I found it an anticlimax. On listening again and again, I found myself becoming addicted to the sound that is the Chili Peppers. This new album does them justice. There is a song for every side, from the fairly loud "Parallel universe" to the mellow and superbly played "Scar ...
...with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I just took too long before finding them. Their music is full of feeling , meaning, excellent lyrics and musical skill. I would advise anyone with an ear for indie/alternative music to listen to them. This album is as good as any to a first-time buyer and no disappointment to a Chilies fan. ...

Warmish Chili Peppers

Advantages: Some good tracks
Disadvantages: Some not so good tracks

I have to say that i'm quite disappointed with this album as a whole despite there being several songs of top quality. The album starts with "Around the world" which is an allright start with weird lyrics and only made good by Ant Keidis's brilliant voice. Next up "paralell universe which is instantly forgettable and not worth lingering on. However "Scar Tissue" is one of the best tracks on the album and with the good "Otherside" and the absolutely ...
...me with hope for the rest of the album. Sadly this hope was misplaced and "easily" is the first of many tracks that sound identical to each other. Then "porcelain" is just a disgrace and sounds like one of those old videos which are always flickering. "Emit Remmus" is ok but it still sounds too much like previous tracks. "I Like Dirt" is an absolute disgrace, I'm normally quite reserved but thie song is really bad and it is all ican do to describe ...

Advantages: a timeless and unique album

The first time I heard any Red Hot Chilli Pepers songs was in the 6th form common room, from the first listening I fell in love with the album Californication. The first six songs on this album are absolute classics: Around the world Parellel universe Scar tissue Otherside Get on top Californication The Red Hot Chilli Peppers vocals and lyrics are absolutely amazing. The writing of these songs are absolutely pure genius, without hearing their ...

dream of Californication

Advantages: Californication, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Emit Remmus, Velvet Glove
Disadvantages: none

...hits like Scar Tissue and Californication you cant go wrong at all. When i purchased this CD i was hoping for something good but i got way more than what i had anticipated. There isnt one track on this album that gets old fast and the sound quality is just perfect. The musical genius that went into the making of this album is just something else. even the album art is uber cool. its peppers magic at its best. its got it all funk punk rock mellow ...
...of instruments used during the recordings from keyboard synthesizers, acoustic guitars and many others not to mention the countless effects used by john on guitar which are just a pleasure to hear. for the price range of £4-£6 you cant go wrong its practially a steal. Flea's bass performance is a constant joy to hear and anthony's vocals are great except for in emit remmus where he goes a little off. ...

FANTASTIC ALBUM BY THE CHILLI PEPPERS

Advantages: The abum is one of those that you can go to sleep with or be kept awake by.
Disadvantages: If you haven't heard any of the songs before try to listen to them from napster or a friend

This album has got to be one of the all time classics - even non chilli peppers fans won't be able to help themselves from becoming fanatical. I first listened to "Californication" on my sisters boyfriends Minidiscplayer and within 2 weeks had that album. The album has a mix of (Compared to the rest of the album) fast songs and slow relaxing songs, The fact is that on a recent school skiing trip on a coach i listened to "Californicatio" practically ...
