Within the first 20 seconds of listening to this track I was overcome with an overwhelming sense of dread. A subtle and infectious bass line, gentle drum rhythms and despondent key trickles: ‘Holy shit! Do I actually like the new RHCP song?’. Oh wait, Anthony Kiedis’ voice is now wailing in an almost illegible fashion and the intricate grooves have become monotonous as they continue to drag the carcass of their once fruitful career for another for eight pain-staking minutes. Get out of the studio and go and play catch with your kids, guys.
