Untitled

Californication is the seventh studio album by American alternative rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, released on June 8, 1999 on Warner Bros. Records. Produced by Rick Rubin, Californication marked the return of John Frusciante, who had previously appeared on Mother's Milk and Blood Sugar Sex Magik, to replace Dave Navarro as the band's guitarist. With his return, Frusciante was credited with changing the band's style altogether, resulting in a radically different recording to what was produced with Navarro. The album's subject material incorporated various sexual innuendos commonly associated with the band, but introduced themes of lust, death, contemplations of suicide, and drugs.

Californication produced several hits for the band, including "Around the World", "Otherside", "Californication" and the Grammy-award winning "Scar Tissue". Californication was commercially successful, reaching #3 on the U.S. Billboard 200. It is the Chili Peppers' best-selling album to date, selling more than fifteen million copies worldwide.[1] Californication was a commercial revitalization in comparison to their previous album, One Hot Minute. The album marked a change in style for the band; Rolling Stone's Greg Tate noted that "while all previous Chili Peppers projects have been highly spirited, Californication dares to be spiritual and epiphanal".[2]

Background

Guitarist John Frusciante departed from the band mid-tour in 1992, due to his growing hatred for the fame the Chili Peppers were receiving, attributed mainly in part to their critically acclaimed album Blood Sugar Sex Magik.[3] It took over a year before the band found a new guitarist to officially begin recording with. Dave Navarro, formerly of Jane's Addiction, was invited to join the Chili Peppers after Arik Marshall, who had finished the remaining tour dates for Blood Sugar Sex Magik, was fired.[4] Navarro influenced the band's ensuing album, One Hot Minute, by incorporating various elements of heavy metal and psychedelic rock,[5] which was something that the Chili Peppers had not previously been notable for. One Hot Minute was a commercial success, selling roughly five million copies, but a let down compared to Blood Sugar Sex Magik.[6] Critics, however, dismissed the album, claiming it was weak and unfocused.[5][7] Shortly after the release of One Hot Minute, Navarro was fired due to internal differences.[8]

In the years following Frusciante's departure from the Chili Peppers, he had developed a heroin addiction that left him in poverty and near death.[9] He was talked into admitting himself to drug rehabilitation in January 1998.[10] In April 1998, following Frusciante's three month completion, Flea visited his former band-mate and openly invited him to re-join the band, an invitation an emotional Frusciante readily accepted. Within the week and, for the first time in six years, the foursome gathered to play, and jump-started the newly reunited Red Hot Chili Peppers.[11]

Writing and composition

The Red Hot Chili Peppers' reunited lineup, which once again featured John Frusciante.

A considerable amount of the album's formation took place in the band member's homes in the summer of 1998. Kiedis and Frusciante often spent days together at each other's home, discussing song creation, guitar riffs and lyrical content. Much of the instrumental formation was pieced together through jam sessions, although this unrestricted nature was not present in the finished album which favored a more structured song configuration.[12]

While most of the album progressed rapidly, "Californication" itself remained a difficult song to put together. Frusciante felt compelled to write an appropriate guitar ensemble to accompany the powerful lyrics, but encountered difficulty.[13] The song was barely making progress, and was nearly scrapped had it not been for Kiedis' urgency to include it on the album. Only two days prior to recording did Frusciante set the final riff into place, and taught the rest of the band how to perform it. "Californication" was written to, essentially, be a detailed classification of California, and, more specifically, the "fake" nature which is associated with much of Hollywood.

Californication's lyrics were derived from Anthony Kiedis' ideas, outlooks, and perceptions of life and its meaning. "Porcelain" resulted after Kiedis met a young mother at the YMCA, who was attempting to battle her alcohol addiction whilst living with her infant daughter.[14] Sarcasm had also been lingering in his mind for quite some time and he decided to devote an entire song to the concept. Kiedis found inspiration from former band mate Dave Navarro, who he considered the "King of Sarcasm".[15] Frusciante began playing a poignant guitar riff, which Kiedis immediately saw integrating smoothly into "Scar Tissue". Running outside with joy, he saw birds flying gracefully overhead which inspired the lyric, "With the birds I'll share this lonely view".[16] Template:Sound sample box align left Template:Sample box end The recording was a change of style for the Chili Peppers, especially when compared to their previous album, One Hot Minute, which combined various elements of psychedelic rock and hard rock. Although Californication still contained their once essential "punk funk" trademark sound (such as "Purple Stain", "Get On Top", "I Like Dirt", "Around the World", and "Right on Time"), it leaned towards more melodic oriented melodies (for example, "Scar Tissue" and "Otherside") and focused on songs with implemented structure rather than jams.

Frusciante's return came with a more experimental style; one song in particular, "Emit Remmus", features a repeating guitar riff which was recorded backwards (hence the title "Emit Remmus", "Summer Time" backwards). Experimental guitar work is consistent in "Savior", and "This Velvet Glove", as a Mellotron and other distortion methods were employed. The album includes multiple references to drugs and Hollywood.[17]

Promotion and release

The Chili Peppers decided to look for other options in who would produce Californication, after working with Rick Rubin for two consecutive albums.[18] David Bowie had shown great interest in working with the band and asked to produce the album; however, the Chili Peppers chose remain with Rubin for Californication.[18] Rubin had, in the past, granted the Chili Peppers creative freedom on their recording material; this was something they thought necessary for the album to be unique, and could only occur with his return.[19] Recording took place at Cello Studios in Los Angeles. Following the recording process, the band played "Scar Tissue", "Otherside", and "Californication" to their managers, in early 1999, where it was decided that "Scar Tissue" would be the lead single for the album.[20] To support their reunited line-up, the band played various proms across the country in order to promote Californication.[20] It sprouted a competition, which called upon high school students to write essays on "...how they could make their schools better, safer, happier, more rocking places, so that they didn't have to go to school afraid. If you wrote the essay, you got a free ticket to the show".[20]

Californication was released on June 8, 1999, debuting at #5 but peaking at #3 on the Billboard Top 200. In Europe, the album peaked at #5 on the UK Top 40, #1 on the Finnish, Austrian, Swedish and New Zealand charts, and #2 on the French Top 40. It was certified 'gold' just over a month later, on July 22, 1999, and its continuing sales have resulted in it being certified five-times multi-platinum.[21][22] With the return of John Frusciante playing guitar, the Red Hot Chili Peppers managed to regain their critical acceptance after its less popular predecessor, One Hot Minute, and has achieved a far greater commercial success worldwide.

In March 2006, the Red Hot Chili Peppers' albums were made available to purchase on the iTunes Music Store.[23] Albums bought there included new previously unreleased tracks ("Fat Dance", "Over Funk", and "Quixoticelixer"). The original tracks, unlike the bonus tracks, were not remastered.

Critical reception

Californication gained positive critical acceptance in contrast to it's less popular predecessor, One Hot Minute, and was a greater success worldwide.[24] Rolling Stone credited Kiedis for his drastically improved vocals: "[his] vocal cords have apparently been down to some crossroads and over the rehab, and returned with heretofore unheard-of range, body, pitch, soulfulness, and melodic sensibility."[2] Songs such as "Otherside" and "Porcelain" were called "Pumpkins-esque", (in reference to their similarity in style to the work of the Smashing Pumpkins) while the album as a whole was "epiphinal" and that the "RHCP furthermuckers are now moving toward funk's real Holy Grail: that salty marriage of esoteric mythology and insatiable musicality that salvages souls, binds communities and heals the sick."[2] Other critics credited the album's success to the return of Frusciante. All Music's Greg Prato said that the "obvious reason for [the band's] rebirth is the reappearance of guitarist John Frusciante", considering him to be the "quintessential RHCP guitarist".[25] The album as a whole was "a bona fide Chili Peppers classic".[25] Entertainment Weekly also credits Frusciante with transforming the band's sound into a "more relaxed, less grating, and, in their own way, more introspective album than ever before".[17]

And while many critics found the band's new sound refreshing, NME scrutinized the Chili Peppers' for rarely utilizing their trademark funk sound, asking: "Can we have our brain-dead, half-dressed funk-hop rock animals back now, please? All this false empathy is starting to make my removed rib tingle."[26] Pitchfork, while considering the album a triumph over One Hot Minute, felt Californication lacked the funk that was ever-present in Blood Sugar Sex Magik.[27] It went on to scrutinize some lyrics for being overly sexual, but also considered Frusciante to be "the best big- time American rock guitarist going right now".[27]

The album received criticism for what Tim Anderson of The Guardian called "excessive compression and distortion" in the process of digital remastering,[28] and was the subject of an online petition which garnered over 1,000 signatures.[29] Stylus Magazine labeled it as one of the victims of the loudness war and commented that it suffered from digital clipping so much that "even non-audiophile consumers complained about it".[30]

Over the years, Californication has maintained its popularity. "Scar Tissue" won a Grammy award for best rock song in 2000.[31] The album was ranked number 399 on Rolling Stone magazine's, 2003 list, of the 500 greatest albums of all time and, in 2006, the Chili Peppers recorded a five-set playlist for AOL Sessions that included "Californication" and "Scar Tissue".[32][33][34] The album produced many staple hits for the Chili Peppers, so much so that five of the sixteen songs on their Greatest Hits album were taken from Californication.[35]

Californication tour

Immediately following the release of Californication, the band embarked on a world tour to support the record, beginning in the United States. To culminate the U.S. leg of their tour, the Chili Peppers were asked to perform at Woodstock '99 which became infamous for the violence that occurred there.[36][37] The band was informed minutes before arriving that there were out of control crowds and bonfires in the fields.[36] The situation escalated when the Chili Peppers performed a tribute to Jimi Hendrix's song "Fire" to finish their set as the disruption turned into violence when several women who had been 'crowd surfing' were raped and nearby property was destroyed and looted.[38][39][40][41] Kiedis felt that "It was clear that this situation had nothing to do with Woodstock anymore. It wasn't symbolic of peace and love, but of greed and cashing in... We woke up to papers and radio stations vilifying us for playing "Fire"." [42]

To kick off the band's European tour, the band staged a free show in Moscow's Red Square, on August 14, 1999, to a crowd of over 200,000.[43] Kiedis recalled the situation: "Red Square was so filled with wall-to-wall Russians that we needed a police escort to get near the stage."[43] Following the leg, the group did a show in New York City, at the Windows on the World, for K-Rock radio contest winners, then Big Day Out in Australia following several Japanese tour dates.[44] Flea, however, began to feel the repercussions of touring and the band set up concerts which would be less strenuous to the foursome, but, consequently, less prosperous, financially; it would finish out Californication's ensuing tour.[45] As one of the last shows before the release of By the Way, the Chili Peppers played Rock in Rio 3.[46]
