Thoughts?
The 2/5 Tiny Mix Tapes reads like a 3.5/5 release and if you taste for lite-funk it's worth a listen. I just can't stand the vocalist, people make fun of his lyrics which I think are borderline clever, it's his voice that spoils the exp for me.
the fact that these threads keep dying after 30 minutes should tell you enough
RHCP hasn't been relevant since ever.
All their stuff is shit.

I hate you.
Is it just me or does the production feel quite sterile, for lack of better words?
I mean, take Dark Necessities as an example. When the bassline kicks in it feels very underwhelming, as opposed to what it could have been (the bass on BSSM f.ex. was beastly). Not to mention that the drums sound very boring and barely progress, at all. Could have been a killer track, but it feels very meh to me. Same goes for the rest of the record.

Don't shoot the messenger. Their seminal albums are mediocre at best, and apart from having a good bassist their existence is forgettable. Heck, Faith no More during the Epic-era was better at their shtick than they were.
its alright.

Yep especially the drums sound beutered as hell
>>65804611
Neutered not beutered

How old are you?
>>65804695
Couple years over 30, let's keep it at that.

It also feels like there's no momentum, at all. And the different sections glide into eachother all too smoothly

This. They're working with Danger Mouse. It's the first album since MM (i think) without Rick.
But yeah the drums especially sound like ass. A real shame.

Yeah MM was the last one before they got Rick. He did a great job with bssm and OHM.

The problem is, he's been doing that lyrical shtick for about 30 years now. For me, the band's three best albums are BSSM, Uplift Mofo Party Plan and Mother's Milk. He was doing it back then too (and on the earlier albums as well).

anybody who dislikes rhcp's best albums is just an idiot.
Here is how I rank the RHCP discography
1. BSSM
2. Uplight Mofo Party Plan
3. Mother's Milk
4. Freaky Styley
5. One Hot Minute
6. Californication
7. RHCP
8. By The Way
and honestly, I've not listened to the last 3. I didn't even realize they had a new album out until this weekend. Can't say I'm gonna run to get it.

Or someone with actual functioning ears.
We need to bring back elitist /mu/.
I want to literally puke of pure disgust.

It's your second favorite album by them and you don't know what's it called
Nice one mr troll
