How can a band that sucks so hard make an album so good?

Every album they made with Frusciante was good. Frusciante + Flea had the best chemistry, they both are very talented.

Personally I think By the Way is also god-tier, Californication is great and Stadium Arcadium and Mother's Milk are good.

You shouldn't go out saying that they suck just like that m8

Californication and stadium arcadium are self parody tier bad m8. It's damn near satire because of kiedis

Do you at least like Wet Sand off Stadium Arcadium?

>>69560784
I enjoy most of stadium arcadium simply for the reasons I listed above. It's self parody and satire but for all the wrong reasons.

I know Kiedis sings about dumb shit most of the time, but I never found his voice particularly annoying, I even think he has a unique voice that's recognizable right away. But I mean, I've seen a lot of people bash the Chilis just because of Kiedis. To each their own I guess my man

One Hot Minute is their only decent album and even then it's kinda shitty

Californication would be BSSM-tier if it didn't have that awful loudness wars production.
