I come here today not to talk about the new album but to sing the praises of the monolith "Don't Forget Me" from the 2002 album By the Way.

:bammer: Top 10 Chilis right there
The guitar lines throughout the verses can only be described as slowly oozing through the veins of that song's circulatory system. If I didn't know better I'd guess it was a Kim Thayil cameo.

I think I've mentioned before how most days I drive my wife's 2011 Nissan Versa, which has a busted aux jack thereby forcing me to rely on the CD player for music. The only RHCP cd I can easily locate after several moves is a burned copy of BTW, so I've been listening to a lot of it lately as the new album hype cycle has come. I never listened to it back when it came out. In fact I think this burned disc was my brother's, but it's making up for lost time now. Tracks 1-7 are unstoppable, but "I Could Die for You" and "Cabron" kill the mid-album momentum for me.

So i like the new album. Here Ever After is easily my favorite at this point.

Oh heavens no. I don't want to get into the lyrical content too much. It's kind of an interesting song in that respect. I just can't enjoy the way the song actually sounds. It feels like a gimmicky genre piece that was tapping into the same vaguely northern Mexican territory that "Corona" by the Minutemen or a handful of Sublime songs famously do. Maybe if I was an LA citizen I'd get it?

"Cabron" is maybe my favorite RHCP song -- such a fun, upbeat song.

I suppose Cabron could be read from the perspective of an Astros fan in October 2017 and I'd enjoy it.

I've never really thought about the lyrics, though I can sing along with it -- I just think it's irresistibly catchy. It was hugely beloved by my group of friends at the time so I guess that helps too. But I love it.
