Always knew Josh would deliver, loved the stuff he did with Warpaint and on Johns solo work. One of the best albums theyve done imo, it gets better with every listen. Cant express how excited i am to see them in November.

Monarchy of Roses Look Around Did I Let You Know Ethiopia Brendan's Death Song Police Station
are all epic.
Not even a big fan of the First Single, so I'm really pleasantly surprised with this album.

I loved the album form start to finish. I watched them play some of their new songs on FuseTV last night. It was Live at The Roxy. Its was really cool. Josh's back up vocals add alot to the band. It comes on again Friday night if you wanna catch it.

I bought a physical copy on Wednesday. While Klinghoffer is no Frusciante, I think he did a pretty damn good job. Love the album so far, still need some songs to grow on me. So I just looked up when the music video for Raindance Maggie was filmed, I was in Venice Beach just 2 days after filming!

Was going to get I'm With You today, but my local record store didn't get any in. Look's like Best Buy is getting my money soon.

solid album, but at the same time i'm a little let down. It's just being picky, but i was hoping for something different sounding. The album sounds like more of Stadium Arcadium and I was thinking they would go beyond that, especially with a new guitarist and taking a break. I thought it would be a time to get a new style.

I've only listened to it about 3 times so I'm still getting used to the style shift as I am a much, MUCH bigger fan of what By The Way and Stadium Arcadium presented than anything else Chili Peppers, but they are one of my favorite bands and it gets better each time.
Did I Let You Know makes me cry happy tears.

i really don't think josh, from a technical standpoint, has the same talent as frusciante melodically and musically logically. by this i mean that while josh writes sound guitar work, it does not have the same bearing or, in absolute lamens terms, 'ring' to it that john so aggressively displays in everything he plays. with john you can clearly hear his different direct influences on the albums at the time (doo wop/50s pop bands with by the way), but with josh you can only hear his own sound and one direct overbearing influence - john.

The first time I heard the single I thought it wasnt up to much but its grown on me
I think loosing John Fruciante (sp?) is a bit of a blow. I always thought his backing vocals were a big part of what made the Chili's sound so good
