    Like the guy who listed "Greatest Hits" on the Foo Fighters Rank 'em - that's how I feel about these guys. I never heard an album from them that was good all the way through, and even worse they are usually frontloaded.

    To be fair, I never said I hated the Chilis, just that I didn't think their albums are good. I think they have a lot of really great songs. The Foos guy said he hated them, or something like that. Anyways, carry on. 8-)

    it's a grower. Wasn't my favorite at first but the songs get stuck in your head forever after some listens. I'd say this is the album that Frusciante shines the most too, as far as pop songwriting and composition.

    great summer album

    By the way is maybe my second favourite album of all time (after No Code). John is certainly on fire, also love the lyrics and Anthony sounds great. On I'm with you Flea is killer, but as a whole it hasn't really stuck yet.
