Whatever you think you know about the Red Hot Chili Peppers there’s a chance that this song could change that (or not 😉 ; love my decisiveness?).

There’s little doubt that RHCP reached the height of their fame when John Frusciante was their lead guitarist and backup singer. The music was very listenable with interesting musical change-ups as you will hear in this video. One thing that caught my attention immediately was the chorus, which, to me, sounds like it could have come from a major ’70s rock band (I’d love to know what they were listening to that inspired them to write this song). And the Frusciante harmonies? So good. His guitar? So excellent.

Nuff of me talking. Listen to Desecration Smile.

A broken record runnin’ low on luck”
