Summary: Disgusting
Comment: This a review of the mastering, It is BAD. Perhaps the most infamous victim of the loudness war, but I hear so little of it from fans. The music is OK, I guess, but the sound is AWFUL. Consumer, educate yourself. END THE LOUDNESS WARS. Go get Blod Sugar Sex Magic, (original issue) it is the same, only it sounds good.

Summary: It's like a friend o' mine said, these guys just keep outdoing themselves!
Comment: Red Hot Chili Peppers's 1999 album "Californication" is often recognized as one of their best efforts, often ranked second only to "Blood Sugar Sex Magik". And with that being said, "Californication" is great for both newcomers to the Peppers and fans who want to complete their RHCP collection.
What I really love about this album is the summery feel to it. I remember finishing my finals early June, coming home and popping this in at 10:30 in the morning. The second I heard the chorus to "Around The World", I knew it was time for my summer soundtrack to return!
The whole album is very strong and well put-together, and shows how far the guys in the band have come. The fifteen songs that make up "Californication" all flow nicely and sustain a level of energy, mood and high spirits we've come to know the Chili Peppers by. The songs combine funk, alternative rock, experimental rock, even some occasional bluesiness and heavy metal. Some highlights of the album include:
"Around The World": A super-energetic introduction features a thundering bassline and some screeching, psychedelic guitar lines. The verses are very catchy, Anthony going about in his rap-rock styles, and the chorus is so melodic and beautiful, it sets the tone for the whole song.
"Parallel Universe": A basic but fast-paced song with a new-wave/punk guitar line and very atmospheric lyrics sung in Anthony's signature voice. A great chorus that builds up with lots of energy.
"Scar Tissue": A softer, melodic ballad with some jazzy rhythm section work and great, bluesy guitar lines. Anthony's lyrics and voice all add to the song, and overall this is one of the best songs by RHCP ever!
"Emit Remmus": A jittery, low-key bassline and a slower pace occupy this song, which is apparently written about Anthony's relationship with the chick from the Spice Girls, read his autobiography "Scar Tissue" for more information. Anyway, the guitar in the chorus is very thrashy, in a good way, and the lyrics are odd and poetic, at the top of their game just like on the rest of the album.
"I Like Dirt": A short, funky two-and-a-half-minute jam in B-minor, featuring some deliciously double-entendre lyrics and a cool guitar solo.
"Road Trippin'": A mellow, acoustic ballad that closes off the album, Anthony's lyrics and singing as great as they always are.
With all the other songs alongside these, "Californication" is one of the strongest album of the last 10 years, and ends the '90s with a bang. As a RHCP fan, I wholeheartedly recommend getting this as soon as possible, take a nice, long cruise down the highway near the foresty area not too far form your home, blast this, and feel it work its magic. It's worked for me, as I love this album, and I know you will, too. Thanks for the time, and peace.

Summary: a very excellent trip
Comment: I've been a fan of RHCP for years now. But had only bought one of their albums before now (Stadium Arcadium). So i decided to remedy that and i purchased Californication. I had only heard a couple songs on the cd (Scar Tissue and Californication). Both of which i really enjoyed and with the exception of maybe three songs on this cd. I found Californication to be a great trip into the minds of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. If its any indication of how good this one is. I will be back down that road again in the future buying another buy the guys as they all seem to be on a different level on this cd.
Check out tracks like Parallel Universe, Scar Tissue, Other Side, Californication, Easily, Savior, Right on Time and the mind boggling Road Trippin. Californication is a cd that i know will get many plays by me now and in the future, a worthy purchase either used or new. It's very wise to invest in this one as the various reviews say, but don't take my word for it drop a few dollars on this one. It's worth it.

Editorial Reviews:

Reunited with producer Rick Rubin and guitarist John Frusciante (both of whom were on board for the 1991's breakthrough Blood Sugar Sex Magik), the Chili Peppers waste no time in burying their last effort, the so-so One Hot Minute. Californication's kickoff cut, "Around the World," swaggers around the room, reacquainting itself with old fans and welcoming new ones. Fuzzy Hendrix vibes and popcorn bass lines still rule the roost, along with a heaping helping of disco magic and some unexpected twists. Ten years ago, Anthony Kiedis and company wouldn't have been comfortable doing revamped new wave ("Parallel Universe") or unpretentious ballads (the acoustic "Road Trippin'"), but such material fits Californication's extra-wide canvas. Except for a few meandering numbers that could have been excised, the Red Hot Chili Peppers succeed and regain their footing on the mountain of adrenalized funk. --Jason Josephes
