woohoo, love this album and love the RHCP. It sucks that I always used to listen to this album with my ex so that kind of ruined it a bit. I still listen to it every now and then, it reminds me of simpler days...

I've always thought by the way is their best album and severely overrated, but I guess this is their second best. I never really liked their older work.
Pity the sound quality is just exceptionally bad. Really want the original multitrack of this album and do it all over again.

Good music spolit by poor production, I can't listen to the whole CD on my HiFi but can in the car. Loudness wars claim another CD.

There's an unmastered version available online. It's not multitrack, just unmastered.
And I'm not sure if this is just loudness war. I mean, they really ****ed up badly. The whole disc distorts, cracks and rattles. It's awful.
I have it on vinyl too. It's not mine, still need to tape it. Interested in a rip of that, in case it's any better?

I actually never cared much for this one. BSSM craps all over it in my opinion and one of the biggest reason is it flows much better and seems more focused.
