Stadium Arcadium. I'd give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars.
I couldn't be happier!
I just got Stadium Arcadium. I've been streaming the entire album from mp3.com everyday last week, so of course I'm happy.
The first thing you notice when you listen to the album is that it doesn't have much funk in it. I'd go so far as to say some songs don't even sound like the Chili Peppers. Like the title track, 'Stadium Arcadium', which is a lot less like Red Hot Chili Peppers and whole lot more like, probably, All American Rejects, or something.
It's like, they've gone from funk/rock group, to just rock group.
The wonderful thing about RHCP is that after a certain number of listens, you (or I guess, I) just tend to tune out the vocals and sometimes even the guitar parts, and just listen to the bass parts. They've got some funky bass lines in a lot of their older songs, like in 'Give It Away', or 'Can't Stop'.
But I guess, it doesn't happen a whole lot in this album. Pro'lly on a few songs.
But it's got some real good guitar parts throughout the entire album. So it's still real good.
Secara tuntasnya (new word I learned!), it's a real nice album that is worth the money. I'd recomend it to... anybody whose music tastes are like Chooiyen's.
Two-disc album, 24 tracks, around two hours' worth of real good listening material, definitely worth it.
It's pretty amazing, for a band to have started out years before we were born, to still be able to make good music that we like some 20+ years later.
If they decide to go to Singapore, and decide to leave out Malaysia, like all the bands do, I'd scream and say "I don't care!" and go watch them live in Sing. Because I like Anthony.

Good luck to everybody in the remaining days of exams, I guess.
I haven't been doing any studying at all, I think I expect myself to remember everything I read two weeks ago.

Yeah, that's about it.
Just so I could get a new post in, I guess. *shrug*
