Their history is brilliantly checkered with drugs, sex ,death and disillusionment. I think they deserve a stable sound after what they have been through. RHCP sold out? I truly believe that they have not even entertained the notion of selling out. There are so many better tracks on previous albums, but they are not complete, and yes I include BSSM in this. Backwoods, Magic Johnson etc are infinitely beeter than anything on the new album, but that's the dilemma. SA is more cohesive and solid.
