I just mean it sucks even by rchp standards. i feel like its success is probably due to the band being popular at the time, not the quality of the song.
sorry if I seem ranty but i've always hated rhcp and couldn't escape hearing them all the time for a good part of my teenage years.

I'm in the wrong thread, please show me to the "Completely true and sensible music opinion thread" so I can post my RHCP disdain there.
Well, like I said,

So except for one song, we see eye to eye.
But I stand by what I said about Dani California.

To me, that song just seems to sum up how and why they suck, so what you're saying does not compute with me plus, I'll never pass up an opportunity to moan about them.

Rock on, Mecha.

Honestly, Californication will always be one of my favorite albums. I only wish there was an instrumental version. The fuzzed out bass riff opening the album gets me pumped, even if Anthony K ruins it immediately after. But otherside is banging, and there is some legitimately beautiful shit going on between John and Flea on some of the mellower songs.
But then again, I've been known to have shit taste in music, so...
