Album Review: Return of the Dream Canteen by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Very Good, Based on 2 Critics
Based on rating 3.4/5
The overly productive chili peppers. During their '99-'06 winning streak, Red Hot Chili Peppers have dug themselves into a hole sonic wise, in similar fashion to most acts reaching universal levels of fame. Josh Klinghoffer's tenure in the band didn't change the dynamics, although a follow-up to The Getaway might have had a chance to shift things just a bit. It's understandable the other members weren't really interested in following new paths at this stage, even if they found a certain balance between old and new there.
Opinion: Excellent
Three and-a-bit months after the Red Hot Chili Peppers released comeback record 'Unlimited Love', the funk rockers announced more music was on the way. As it transpires, we can expect a 17-track, Rick Rubin-produced double LP, one which vaunts the band's signature funkadelic sound yet takes further risks and explores new avenues. Arriving with a brilliant, albeit slightly bonkers title, the Chili Peppers present their 13th studio album, 'Return of The Dream Canteen'.
