Red Hot Chili Peppers Stadium Arcadium Rock Music CD Review

The extremely talented group Red Hot Chili Peppers mp3have released their most recent CD on the Warner Bros. Records recording label, entitled Stadium Arcadium.

I wish it weren’t the case but, it’s not everyday that I get a CD for review that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Stadium Arcadium. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you’ve got one of Red Hot Chili Peppers most impressive releases ever.

Stadium Arcadium is a pleasantly varied, mix of 28 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly outstanding musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They’re all here.

If you’re a Red Hot Chili Peppers fan, or just a fan of Rock music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.

Overall Stadium Arcadium is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Rock collection. Truly an outstanding Rock CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.

While the entire CD is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 9, disc 1 - Strip My Mind, track 3, disc 2 - Hard To Concentrate, and track 11, disc 2 - Storm In A Teacup.

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 8, disc 2 - Make You Feel Better. Wow!
