New Chili Peppers albumn has been released.

Basically, if you like thier old stuff (One Hot Minute is excepted from that). Then you'll like this albumn. Why change a formula when it's so damn good.

I am also reading Scartissue, Anthony Kiedis's autobiography. It's really an amazing read, because this guy has basically been an addict since he was 12 years old. It's funny how he characterises his addiction, and says that he knew what he was doing was bad for him, but he just couldn't get the will together to change his life. I have amazing respect for someone who can be that introspective, and write about something that was obviously such a hard time.
