@@nzrockboi I WON'T lie, first few times listening to this album was HARD for me, Anthony could more than sing, he COULD SING and that was strange for me! I had flashbacks to the Black album for Metallica and a CLEANER sounding James, this is a cleaner sounding Anthony, and he's never lost it since.
@@brucenadeau5920 I had the same reaction for exactly the same reason honestly (Metallica suck after Justice for All). Didn’t like Dani California when released so didn’t listen to Stadium album until 4 years ago, guess I’m older now and can appreciate things a lot more. I hope you’ve come around to Stadium Arcadium a bit more now too.
@@nzrockboi After about 4 listens to Stadium I actually really got into that album. The first 4 listens just had me feeling strange... Anthony could chest sing properly now, not just head sing.. I had to get use to that and once I did, GREAT album imo! Black for me in an OK album for what it is, BUT I LOVE Metallica for the OLD voice of James, that WAS part of the Metallica sound. Black was the LAST album I could listen to by them. Load and Reload were loads of SHIT and a handful of good songs since, at least imo.
Yeah, Anthonys vocals took a step up on By The Way and continued on this album. This album is my equal favourite with Blood Sugar Sex Magic. Some of their best songs are the non singles on this album. The singles are nice tracks, but some of the other songs are brilliant, including this one. Warlocks, Hey, Especially In Michigan, Turn It Again, Readymade, So Much I, are my personal favourites.
On nearly every chili peppers song you react to, John Frusciante will be the guitarist. People love to joke that they change guitarists a lot, and they do more than most, but John Frusciante has been their guitarist the longest and is,in my opinion, their best. He was in the band from 1988-1992, 1998-2009, and now he rejoined again. So basically, every popular album of their's included him. I think it's safe for you to assume that he's the guitarist in all your Chili's reactions. (Except for early stuff like Backwoods)
Stadium Arcadium is an amazing album. I think it's a top 3 RHCP album along with Blood Sugar Sex Magik and By The Way. John Frusciante (the GOAT) was really into soloing during this time, and was heavily influenced by blues music.
I would guess among diehard Chili Pepper fans it would rank as their tightest, most well rounded album they’ve released. The tour following this album was by far their best live performances to date. Just amazing cohesion.
I just discovered this channel a few days ago and I’ve binge watched about 30 chili peppers songs reactions and the majority of the Frusciante solo reactions. You cover so many other artists which I like so I am going down the rabbit hole. Subscribed 🙏
Wow, not a song I would expect, but I ain’t complaining. Great track. Really can’t go wrong with any of the Frusciante RHCP albums. I feel like the more you listen, the more you understand their chemistry. These guys deserve all the acclaim they’ve gathered
HI Dave, loved your review. First time watcher, just found your page. I was listening to rhcp tunes and your video came up. You looked cool and I like metal as well so i thought you'd be an interesting watch and I was right. Great breakdown of the track and you're right, Anthony really hit his stride here. His singing got better over the last decades. Flea killed it as usual and Chad's the motor. Really liked your style and I'll check out more of your vids. Peace.
Fruiscantes soloplaying is pure wildfire. He should namebrand himself as Cosmic Wildfire on the new album,,,, as Prince dubbed himself The symbol. just sayin
yes men, this is probabl the best vocal work of anthony, he gets better since the 80 to this peace of art, he is a good singer i was shock like you the first time that i listen to this album. You shoud react next time to a song from one hot minute, the song Warped, you look that you love metal so you are going to love it. by men keep doing videos!!
@@THEDavidHeretic ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h3GWAF_MG6Y.html This is warped, please make the reaction of this, you are going to love it is funk and metal, good luck!!
This is one of the songs I like the least (GOOD song still BUT..), BUT man Anthony FOUND his voice outside of his head voice this album and less nasal (I don't mind his voice before that either), BUT I wonder DID he take voice lessons finally?
Late to the party but just recently found your channel, not sure if you've done it but I'd love to see you do the songs "dosed or wet sand" by the rhcp 🤞
David you're a bass player and I'm sure that you love FLEA's work. Just wondering if you're familiar with TIM COMMERFORD's bass playing from RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. Love to hear your take. ✌
Yeah, what would Take the Power Back or Calm Like a Bomb be without him and his sound! He's also great on Audioslave's Drown Me Slowly (very aggressive Chris there as well!), so maybe David will check it out some day. One of my favorites from Stadium Arcadium is Turn it Again, everyone's just amazing there!
I'm kinda familiar with Tim, he's got some amazing chops and I dig his tone. what impresses me the most about him is his ability to lock in with the drummer, they are both SUPER tight together.
@@THEDavidHeretic David just like Michael Anthony Tim is also an awesome backing vocalist. Looking forward to your reaction video. And remember "You're not a true fan of the band unless you know the Bass players name." ✌
I'm trying to film it today....not sure if it's gonna happen. Unfortunately real life has reared it's ugly head and my wife and I have some family stuff we need to attend to. If I get the chance to film it today I will and get it edited and up as soon as possible.
