But I'm not offended either. I was explaining "my method," I didn't want to criticize yours. I have given the explanation clearly: to me, it's ignorant. When you criticize, you always seem irritated, but trust me, I'm not. We're just chatting.

Everyone has their method. As for me, I limit myself to evaluating the musical content. If you give a 4 to an album that deserves a 1, you’re a 1. If you review the Gotthard claiming they are the best of Switzerland, it means you don’t know Switzerland, you’re a 1—don’t talk about what you don’t know. If you review the Gotthard without even listing one of the 18 million bands they take inspiration from, it means you don’t know hard rock, you’re a 1—don’t talk about Hard Rock. I read another review where the Pink Floyd were said to do Hard Rock, with the infamous Hush, and Bob Dylan was covering Mighty Quinn by Gotthard. But come on, please. I’m for natural selection: an ignorant person learns first and then can speak. There are a lot of people on this site who shouldn’t be allowed to write, and they have the decency not to. Take geenoo, for instance—he doesn’t know a thing, he’s clueless... but at least he stays quiet. He just limits himself to spouting nonsense in the comments. Everyone has their method, but for me, even if Dante Alighieri reviewed Kyuss labeling them as Thrash Metal, he’d be a 1. Form is just a sideshow.

Nothing, but it's evident that you've listened to maybe, exaggerating, 50 albums. 70 perhaps, but 20 just in passing.

But aren't you ashamed to buy their records when you see that retired Kiedis flailing around like a spastic? Someone probably still needs to explain to him that gesturing is a way to keep time on particularly challenging metrics. He flails around like an idiot and makes a rhyme every hour, keeping time like kindergarten kids with rhythms that come in torrents in English. The last video I saw was embarrassing; he doesn't even rap but still gestures. He looks like the Duracell bunny.

I never understood what people find in these RHCP, a decent revival made by four idiots who have been bouncing around like morons for 30 years. Four fucking punk junkies who occasionally get crowned as "inventors"... what a blasphemy. The only one who's worth anything is Frusciante, who joined later. But when I say "worth," I mean "worth," nothing more.

Bloodsugarsexmagic is a Funk Rock album like many others; it doesn’t even reach - not even if we want to exaggerate - the level of things like Maggot Brain, Black Merda, or Sly & The Family Stone. It's a Funk Rock album that arrived late, contributing nothing new to the genre and not even fully utilizing it (the genre). It remains a great album, but its value has been enriched by the fact that during that time, almost no one was making Funk Rock. It had no competitors. SCIENCE is a Crossover album (in the TRUE FINAL SENSE OF THE TERM CROSSOVER) that came out in a period where the competition was incredibly high; it's the second album of a band that many were "waiting to pounce on," and it surprised EVERYONE (find me a negative review from that time, go ahead). It added many elements to the genre, exploited it to the fullest in all its parts, and there isn’t even half a second that isn’t mixed brilliantly. Since tastes can't be "measured," let’s measure historical value: BSSM is a Revival album, SCIENCE is an album that set the rules. The comparison is incomparable; beyond personal tastes, SCIENCE is a masterpiece, and BSSM is a good album. Or, can you find something in BSSM that you can't find in Funk Rock bands from the '70s? Because there isn’t any. PS: I listened to this Light Grenades and it left me completely indifferent.

True, you can also notice the sparkle of the Rolex on the cuff...

<< I don't understand the press calling Incubus the clones of Red Hot. But where is it? >> Well, on everything that came after SCIENCE, I think they're right, very Red Hot. Especially on the ballads, the inspiration is so great that it borders on plagiarism. For example, I haven't said in years that "I like Incubus," because by now the amount of crap they've produced surpasses the amount of good stuff. Science remains one of the best albums I've ever heard, but Incubus has been a shit band for almost ten years now, that's not insignificant.
