Unlimited Love

Unlimited Love the new album by the RHCP will be out on 1st April, 2022!

Our only goal is to get lost in the music. We spent thousands of hours, collectively and individually, honing our craft and showing up for one another, to make the best album we could. Our antennae attuned to the divine cosmos, we were just so damn grateful for the opportunity to be in a room together, and, once again, try to get better. Days, weeks and months spent listening to each other, composing, jamming freely, and arranging the fruit of those jams with great care and purpose. The sounds, rhythms, vibrations, words and melodies had us enrapt.
We yearn to shine a light in the world, to uplift, connect, and bring people together. Each of the songs on our new album UNLIMITED LOVE, is a facet of us, reflecting our view of the universe. This is our life’s mission. We work, focus, and prepare, so that when the biggest wave comes, we are ready to ride it. The ocean has gifted us a mighty wave and this record is the ride that is the sum of our lives. Thank you for listening, we hope you enjoy it. – John, Anthony, Chad, and Flea

Anthony’s Black Summer

The first single from the forthcoming RHCP album Unlimited Love has been released! It’s called Black Summer. The song references recent events of the pandemic and there is also a reference to the sad passing of Anthony’s father, Blackie Dammett, last year.

Lyrics: “Black Summer”

A lazy rain am I
The skies refuse to cry
Cremation takes its piece of your supply

The night is dressed like noon
A sailor spoke too soon
And China’s on the dark side of the moon

Platypus are a few
The secret life of roo*
A personality I never knew
My Greta weighs a ton
The archers on the run
And no one stands alone behind the sun

It’s been a long time since I made a new friend
Waiting on another black summer to end
It’s been a long time and you never know when
Waiting on another black summer to end

Crack the flaming whip
Sailing on a censorship
Riding on a headless horse to make the trip

Been a long time since I made a new friend
Waiting on another black summer to end
It’s been a long time and you never know when
Waiting on another black summer to end

I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting
Waiting on another black summer to end
I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting
Waiting on another black summer to end
I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting
Waiting on another black summer to end
I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting
Waiting on another black summer to end

(*trying to decide if it’s ‘roo as in an abbreviation of kangaroo as that fits with the platypus in being an Australian creature, or if it’s Roo as in the Winnie the Pooh character).

New Anthony Kiedis Interview with RHCP in NME

“I really didn’t want to tell the same old story that we’ve been hearing for the last 50 years in rock music,” Kiedis says defiantly. “I liked reaching out in 10,000 directions and seeing what was out there. We weren’t limiting ourselves but trying to tap into something that is honest and emotional. Hopefully we’ve said something that hasn’t been said before, or at least said it in a way that hasn’t.”

There is a new interview with the Red Hot Chili Peppers on the release of their new single, Black Summer, and the forthcoming album, Unlimited Love. It contains a number of quotes from Anthony. Enjoy!
