Blood Sugar Sex Magik

J’ai écouté ça au boulot, j’ajoute ça à mon compte de pénibilité. C’est nul. C’est moche. Pour les besoins de l’exercice je me suis un peu penché sur les paroles et je n’ai pas été déçu : “Naked in the rain with a killer whale, i can’t taste the salt when I lick his tail”. Tout cela est très profond. “Sir psycho sexy” sur 8 minutes c'est juste non. Je n’ai jamais pu encaisser “Give it away”. Toutes les chansons s’étirent inutilement sur plus de 4 ou 5 minutes, l’album dure 1h12, un enfer. Et ça finit par une espèce de chanson farce comme si tout de qu'il y avait avant n'en était pas déjà une. Quoi sauver? “I could have lied” a un riff qui marche pas mal, “Under the Bridge” est OK mais bon, ça ne sauve pas le reste.

Bought it when younger. Played it seeking understanding and clarity, Failed to really connect with it then. Failed to really connect with it now. I hear it and can kind of enjoy it, but its an effort. I think the type of rock that it is is not my rock, and its not the type of music I actively seek out. Is it good music, not my music, not my good music. Thanks for the memories. I never noticed the CD getting swiped by someone who liked it more than me, good on them for taking it. I hope it gives you all the joys you deserve. For me, its none of them. Will not be seeking to listen to again.

Some of the music is really good, but lyrics from a sexist, horny preteen inside a grownups body are so damn cringy and on top of that is Kiedis just a really mediocre singer, so this has definitely not aged well.

Oh sweet Jesus. Oh god it's 73 minutes as well. Do I have to? What, a 3.56 average score, what the hell is wrong with you people? Let's get on with it. I like the odd RHCP song, but they are a band exclusively to be enjoyed in small doses only. Lol 2 tracks in and I'm already cringeing hard. White boy hip hop are we now Chillis? Breaking the Girl sounds more like Pearl Jam except with flutes. This one is tolerable. Not bad actually. Funky Monks is laughable and Suck My Kiss is garbage. I went to make a coffee. Several more tracks. Oh god it's all so bad. And mind-meltingly dumb. When is Under the Bridge? I need heroin myself to get through this. I don't mind Give it Away, at least that is passably funky. Sir Psycho Sexy, please please give it a rest, you are not, I repeat NOT Sly and the Family Stone. So. That's 3 songs out of 17. Oh that's a big old one star lads.

Tak jo, tohle doposlouchat mě stálo neuvěřitelného úsilí a vůle, bylo to čisté koncentrované utrpení. Raději bych si kdykoliv pustila Davida Graye než toto a to jsem si myslela, že RHCP budou v pohodě, pár jejich písniček mám přece jen ráda. Bylo to tak nicneříkající, vyprázdněné, samolibé, americké až hrůza. Bylo z toho cítit, jak si kapela myslí, že jsou the shit a působilo to celou dobu jako honění vlastního ega. Texty naprosto debilní, hloupý a někdy vyloženě nechutný a slizký, zejména v kontextu toho, co frontman všechno provedl. Má to neuvěřitelně zastaralý a nudný zvuk a proč to sakra muselo být tak dlouhé? Nikdy předtím jsem neslyšela celé album od této kapely a možná to tak mělo zůstat, hodně to změnilo můj názor na ně. Nebudu vůbec lhát, když řeknu, že největší moment euforie nastal, když album skončilo. Tohle rozhodně bude sloužit jako připomínka, že si mám víc vážit kvalitní hudby. PROČ je tohle album na seznamu hudby, kterou bychom měli slyšet před smrtí? Možná právě proto, abychom víc ocenili dobrou hudbu vedle této snůšky sraček. Nejlepší: Under the Bridge (jediný, co mi nepřišlo příšerný) Nejhorší: Breaking the Girl (country, wtf, sus), Suck My Kiss (yuuuck), Give It Away, Sir Psycho Sexy (tohle mě sralo tak, že jsem to fakt musela přepnout) → PROSTĚ VŠECHNO, TFUJ Verdikt: 0,5/10 (nejhorší album, co jsem zatím tady slyšela, půl bodu jen za jednu písničku a že to ve mně dokázalo vyvolat takovou reakci)

I was hoping for better music from this subscription. So far, just mediocre pop. How about some GOOD music?

F RHCP. I was forced to listen to too many songs from this when it was on the radio. I really can’t stand listening to the same song done slightly differently each time. They are singularly responsible for any dislike I have for California. We get it, you love California. Stop it already.

Didn’t listen. Don’t like RHCP

Suck my ?

Just gives me big Kyle energy. Like I want to shotgun a monster and punch a wall. Like this is what I imagine goes on inside the head of a 11 year old iPad kid who's parents let them roam. I just don't like the peppers no matter how many chances I give them. Shout out to the worst song I've ever heard in my life 'Sir Psycho Sexy' I'm not a prude or anything but it's just an 8 minute horny ass rant with the worst synth bass I've ever heard. Favorite song: Naked in the Rain

Still don't like Red Hot Chili Peppers, but I listened anyway just in case maybe I was mistaken. I wasn't :)

Gefällt mir nicht

My phone was stolen during RCHP at ACL Fest 2017 so that’s something about this band that I’ll always remember. Under the Bridge is the only somewhat okay song on this album.

There's something about this band that just turns my stomach. I never understood the hype or the fanbase. Although, I'd rather listen to this than Everything but the girl...

I do not like this band and making me listen to them for over an hour made me very unhappy. 2/10

I will not listen to this album. I really can't stand the vocal stylings of the lead singer. Not to mention the misogyny. cringe city. no stars, but I can't seem to remove the one I added.

absolutely no

More like Green Mild Shishito Peppers.

Sex magik on dirait le nom d'une chanson de Keen'V J'ai pas tout écouté mais j'ai vraiment pas aimé 😳 j'ai du passer la moitié des chansons quand elles duraient + de 3min mdr

wow. i hated everything about this. kind of impressive honestly.

Absolutely not.

LOL scuffed

Under the Bridge is a great song. But it is the one that sounds very unique on this album, unlike all the others. With some of these albums it just sounds like a blur, gray noise, and it just becomes background noise and I don't pay attention. This was the first album where I actively thought, a handful of times, Jesus H please turn this off. Sounds like the album of a methed out guy in his early 40s in Venice Beach rocking out while digging through a trashcan. I had fairly high hopes and they were quickly deflated.

Similar beat through out. Not a great variety or creativity...

💩

I hated this

There sure are a lot of redeeming qualities to this record, but god on the whole this was a slog. Lyrics uniformly pretty bad, which i just can’t get over, and this is a long album, defo could be half the length and that would help a lot!! 1/5

Shite

Genuinely don't think there will be a worse album on this list.

I really like the instrumental parts but Anthony Kiedis really ruins it for me. Like REALLY ruins it for me.

Ça me répugne

I’m a pretty big Pepperhead and I fucking hate this album. I don’t understand the love it gets. I’ve heard this album numerous times since high school and to this day the only song I truly enjoy is Under the Bridge. Everything else is annoying or creepy. Not the RHCP album, man. 1

No, never RHCP.

Just the worst

Did not like

hated this, terrible album, terrible music, terrible band

Holy shit this sucks. This band sucks, it's crass and bad and flea isn't even that good the bass is just mixed loud. Took me 3 days to finish this. 0/5

Einfach Nein.

Awful. 0/5

two albums into the Red Hot Chili Peppers (with Californication being one of the most abysmal first listens of my life), and i am confounded as to how they managed to pass as anything truly listenable, unless done with the greatest amount of irony — a band people would love to laugh at, not with. there’s hardly a lyric here worth paying attention to: the most consistent thing about RHCP is their shallow, oft banal wordplay that is so grating, causing brain cells to dissipate at a rate faster than the time it would take to roll one’s eyes. the album clocks in at 79 minutes, and gosh they are excruciating. every song has a pace that drags, and six songs into the record, all i want is for it to be over. granted, Blood Sugar Sex Magik has more going for it than Californication — it’s compositions more assured, and the bass more lively, and it manages a semi-decent song in “Under the Bridge” — but it is such a deliriously low bar to clear that it doesn’t ring as a complement in my mind. Californication came years after this, and it’s insane how RHCP clearly never evolved past their frat-boy, pubescent style of songwriting. i just hope i never have to undergo the torture of listening to even one more word out the mouth of Kiedis ever again.

I've made some bad musical decisions in my life, but never caving into the temptation of buying this album - or any Chili Peppers album - isn't one of them. If I had any revelation upon listening to this it's that I can't place all of the blame solely on the vocals of Anthony Kiedis. His voice has always, always bugged the crap out of me (yes, before it was cool to hate him) and I always wondered if they would be better with a different signer. But now I have the opinion that I probably wouldn't like this band no matter who was singing for them. I know Frusciante seems to get a pass because he does some cool stuff on the guitar, has a solo career, was a junkie, etc. But more times than not anything funk-adjacent on this record makes me cringe before Kiedis even opens his mouth. So, there's blame to go around. I liked "Breaking the Girl" and, surprisingly, "Give it Away." Whatever's happening on those two songs at least feels like the band is in unison. But the rest is a complete pass for me. And maybe I told this story already, but I saw them headline Lolapalooza 1992 (right after Ministry, which is just wild to think about) and... I had fun! So, I'm not too cool to dislike this band entirely, but I am too cool to like them on record. If I'm going to be subjected to silliness, I suppose it works much better on me visually in the same way I don't want to listen to a Benny Hill record, I want to see that shit.

ew except one song

Refused to listen.

I didn’t know I hated the Red Hot Chili Peppers so much until listening to this album.

Comfortably the worst band of all time.

Not today Satan

no. if you listen to RHCP you go to the bad place

Under the bridge är ju bra, fan vad störigt allt annat va

“I'm forever near a stereo saying, 'What the f**k is this garbage? And the answer is always the Red Hot Chili Peppers.” - Nick Cave. Couldn't agree more.

Couldnt even finish it.

Y'all. This is not good. Nothing about this is worthy of a listen. It has no redeeming qualities. If this is your jam, I don't know what to do with you, brodude. I just don't know.

I don’t give a shit abt this kind of music unfortunately.

I have no interest in hearing Anthony Kiedis clumsily rap about what gets him hard for even one minute, let alone 73. The singles are fine, but the album drags. Not for me. One for the Cali kids.

Way to long bunch if funk rock infused jams. Which has been done better before and since. The album was just long tedious and repetitive.

I like to think that this band is actually an extremely elaborate joke.

Nope

Terrible overrated band

an album full of testosterone and nervous energy. the relentless crack of the snare drum is exhausting. the whole thing feels very agitated.

Under The Bridge feels v out of place on here. Mostly shite.

Puuh, ei kyl lähe. Jotenki ylisaturoituneet melodiat ja samalla täysin sieluttomat biisit. Menettelee jossain baarissa taustalla, mut ei kestä kuunnella tosissaan. Lyhyempänä antaisin ehkä 2/5, mut näin ylipitkänä meni jo tuskaiseksi.

Under the Bridge aside this album is the same song on repeat for over an hour. How this band became so successful is beyond me. I would have given it a 0/5 if possible.

I try to keep open and have heard new and different music I’ve enjoyed..but this is just noisy garbage not worth the time of day…but to each his own

I didn't like it

This isn't the one with the psychic spies from china

Under the bridge is a good song

una verga

I know I don't like RHCP but I listened to a few songs anyway. This is just bad.

this is horrible music for horrible people

yikes man

Urgh.

this is turd. so turd that i was relieved when give it away came on, which is the opposite of what i'd usually feel.

Dogshit

Production: 4/20 Songwriting: 3/20 Innovation: 6/20 Bangers: 0/20 Emotional response: 0/20 =13 What a load of TOTAL fucking shit.

Oh god, it's so lame. Just four white dudes doing "funk" and occasionally there's a good song in there. Clocking in at 70 minutes, this album way overstays it's welcome. I want to listen to anything else. Closer to 1.5 to gets a 1 for punishment's sake.

Under the bridge good. The rest cringe

liked it as a kid, hated it now.

Rubbish. Cheesey and embarrassing.

Just boring, honestly. And drags for over an hour. The 1 is an overreaction, but I don't have one of those yet.

whres the hip
