Red Hot Chilli Peppers

Red Hot Chili Peppers are a Californian rock band who have combined aspects of funk and hip-hop with rock and roll, pioneering funk metal. The band started in 1983.

One critic has summarized their lyrics as "fun, good times, rock and roll and more joy" with some truth, though some of their biggest hits, such as "Under the Bridge", along with their newer albums, have been considerably more introspective. Perhaps the most distinctive feature of their sound is the bass playing of Flea, whose flashy, slap-heavy playing not only provides a groove but is also the source of many musical flourishes. They are also well known for playing bare chested and sometimes naked .

Red Hot Chili Peppers' label were originally signed to an EMI subsidiary known as EMI Belfort. Epic Records offered the band a contract where each member would be paid a million dollars, but only if Epic would release them from their contract with EMI Manhattan by paying them off. Epic and EMI Manhattan hit a wall in negotiations, the deal fell through and the Red Hot Chili Peppers signed with Warner Brothers Records. Their breakthrough record Blood Sugar Sex Magik as well as all subsequent records were released on Warner Brothers Records and were produced by Rick Rubin.

Their earlier work was a fusion of funk and punk rock with a party attitude, and laid the groundwork for the development of funkcore. After the sobering death of guitarist Hillel Slovak from a heroin overdose, drummer Jack Irons left the band, which led to the addition of current members John Frusciante and Chad Smith. It was after the death of Hillel that the band had their most success.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have recently finished their new album, which will be released in 2006, and will be followed by a world wide tour. The new album was recorded in the same mansion where they recorded the album "Blood Sugar Sex Magik".
