stady dont have power of equality, what a great album opener

yeah but the end of stady is better than the power of equality, slightly.

Album Rating: 3.5

Stadium Arcadium butchers this album, really. In just about every concievable way.

Album Rating: 4.0

I don't get what you're trying to say. BSSM is a lot more funky, energetic, and consistent then Stadium Arcadium. This album features a great mix of raw funk influenced songs and soothing ballads while Stadium Arcadium is filled with a bunch of filler. Not to mention the fact that BSSM showcases many classic tunes like Give it Away and Under the Bridge while Stadium Arcadium has no memorable tunes or standout tracks.

Album Rating: 5.0

Am I the only one that thinks One Hot Minute is there best album (tied with this). I never ehar that album gettin alotta love.

Funky doesn't necassarily mean good, though. As for consistent, that's really a personal opinion, as I only like three or so songs on here. I find Stadium Arcadium offers a wider range of better songs.

Blood sugar i find maintains perfect energy whereas i can skip through half the songs on both jupiter and mars. I just find it as a band enjoying themselves and not giving a f##k

[/quote] This is true yet I personally tend to enjoy the more energetic and funk influenced Chili Peppers as opposed to the more straight up "rock" Chili Peppers.

[quote=Bron]Bolded- That's all the album has. Mindless funk-rap and a few ballads. Stadium Arcadium has much more diversity and meaning, and it's executed better.[/quote] Both albums don't have much diversity. BSSM is basically "funk rap" plus a few ballads yet Stadium Arcadium is basically straight up rock with a few funk licks here and there. The thing is that Stadium Arcadium is much, much longer then BSSM.

[quote=Bron]Two great songs doesn't repair the damage the rest of them do. An album isn't better than another based on whether or not it contains timeless hits, and even if it was Stadium Arcadium hasn't had the chance to present any yet.[/quote] This was my mistake; let me redeem myself. There are more then two classics, I just failed to mention them all. Suck My Kiss, Funky Monks and Breaking the Girl are all excellent tracks that come to mind and they are all quite different from one another. I also beleive that there is only one poor track off of BSSM but that's obviously debateable.

Stadium Arcadiums biggest single "Dani California" isn't nearly as energetic of groovy as most of the singles released off of this album. In the end I just find BloodSexSugarMagik a much more preferable listen, but I guess it just depends on what you like.

Fair enough, Zeb.



By the way, I've always preferred the poppy sounds of By the Way and such.

I'll take the fact that no one replied as a yes?

I defenitily think its an under appreciated album, but not my favorite. Dave navaroo does some great work though.

i dont think of it as a real chillis album personally, i like some of the singles though (ie:love rollercoaster). Id have to agree with bron at least that "by the way" is a good album

i love the chilli peppers no mater wat but i do prefer the funkayness. but there are some funkay tracks on stady arcady such as, Charlie, Hump de Bump, tell me baby and some other stuff.

Album Rating: 4.0

No creativity? I'm hard pressed to think of any Chili Peppers album that shows off much creativity. This is much more creative then By the Way or Stadium Arcadium. BSSM is supposed to be a funky album that doesn't showcase much except for upbeat, energetic, and fun tunes.

Album Rating: 4.5

i thought it was pretty creative. the solos are awesome.

awwww shut the hell up everybody. am i the only one who thinks that this, stady, and everything else that this band has ever made kicks ass?This Message Edited On 08.31.06

i like all thier stuff they did starting with hillel up to the present day (excluding navrro)This Message Edited On 08.31.06

ok i guess you and me are the only ones who don't argue about crap like this and just admit that it's all good no matter what

yeah i agree, i think few bands, excluding people like the beatles have evolved and changed their sound like the chillis, listen to a song like "party on your pussy" (actually a good song!) up to "dosed"

yeah rhcp have evolved a lot over time, but it's definitely not a bad thing. you can't be around for 23 years and make the exact same music you did when you were that young. its impossible, and if they did, 80% of their newer songs would probably end up sounding like party on your pussy. that's just my opinion on the band. all you people can go on arguing over whether chad smith or cliff martinez was a better drummer but I honestly love it all. They are my favorite band of all time, so obviously i like them quite a bit.This Message Edited On 11.29.06
