Description
“John Frusciante returns and the Red Hot Chili Peppers hand over the reins. The result? Doo-wop harmonies, less funk, and critical acclaim.
If 1999s ‘Californication’ was The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ album that catapulted them to superstardom, 2002s John Frusciante-driven ‘By The Way’ may have been their most interesting.
The cock-waving machismo of old was largely put on the backburner in favour of a more mellow, clear-eyed approach. But what the album lacked in punch it more than made up for in texture, with ‘Zephyr’ and the lilting ska of ‘On Mercury’ broadening their palette even further. ‘By The Way’ proved that ‘Californication’ was no career-saving fluke, and showed the Chilis had finally reached adulthood.” – Classic Rock
