After two years off, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are hard at work on their 10th
album, due later this year, and, according to frontman Anthony Kiedis, the
time apart has reinvigorated the band.
"I think that during the writing of this record I have been the most
open-minded and refreshed than I have been in a long time," Kiedis tells
SPIN. "I guess that comes from a much-needed hiatus and becoming a father."
While Kiedis was family focused, bassist Flea studied music theory at USC and
played in Atoms for Peace with Radiohead's Thom Yorke, drummer Chad Smith
played with all-star rock act Chickenfoot, among others, and, most
stunningly, guitarist John Frusciante quit the band in 2008.
"It is always going to change the chemistry and feeling of the music when
such a creative force as John Frusciante leaves," Kiedis says. "He was
something unique that shaped our sound then, but now I think it's also
something fresh and exciting to have a new, incredible musical mind working
with us now. We are still the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but we also have to
adapt and welcome new opportunities. After all, that is how we've survived
all these years."
「像John如此深具创造力的人离开後,化学变化与感受都是势必要做改变的。
他是如此的独特,形塑了我们的音乐,
但现在我们要开始去探索全新的音乐心灵之旅。
我们依旧是RHCP,但我们必须去调适并且拥抱新的机会。
毕竟我们就是这样熬过这些年头的。」
我喜欢最後两句话!
Josh Klinghoffer, who'd previously toured with RHCP as a backing musician,
officially became the group's guitarist last year, following Frusciante's
amicable split.
Flea's musical studies, which included him learning the piano, have helped
fill the void left by Frusciante, arming the Peppers with "a whole new
dynamic," Kiedis says.
所以这张专辑的创作主轴是Flea!
"This album has been one of evolution," he adds. "Before, some of our jams
were a bit hit-and-miss. On this record, a decent number of songs were
actually thought out and planned in a way we had never done before. That is,
with Flea's new knowledge of music theory, we explored the writing process
with a bit more precision."
Elsewhere, African vibes have also rubbed off on the recordings, thanks to a
trip Flea and new bandmate Josh Klinghoffer took to the continent.
Flea与Josh的衣索匹亚之旅!
While Kiedis won't reveal song details, he agreed to let SPIN in on the
album's affectionate working title, inspired by a friend who dropped by the
studio: Dr. Johnny Skinz's Disproportionately Rambunctious Polar Express
Machine-head.
"He was reminiscing about one of his legendary acid trips, and told us that
he had been playing a sold-out show to the planets and moons, and his
number-one hit was, well, that title," Kiedis explains.
"We found it so funny
that we told him for as long as the album was under the radar, that that
would be our nickname for it."
Follow Flea's tweets to keep tabs on the progress of the new album, produced
by Rick Rubin, who produced their 1991 breakthrough Blood Sugar Sex Magik,
among others.
