This post will not age well.

Listening to this now. I have had little interest in the Chillis over the years, kinda cracks me up how much I've enjoyed their 2 x 2022 releases. A late career resurgence indeed!

Eddie is very well placed in the album

great song, John rules so much here

first pro shot i can find from this tour

Unlimited love *****

Return of The Dream Canteen ****


The albums kind of compliment each other. Even though totally different.

Unlimited love is my daughters fav chilis album. And will always hold a soft spot in my heart due to that.

She likes ROTDC but had to say last night “I like the new one Dad but it’s not as good as unlimited love”.

This

i need way more time with the new one, but i can see a few of these songs going into more B side territory. UL feels more cohesive maybe but still i need more listens

So is the new one out there? Anybody got a PM?

Well, one listen. It’s ok, there’s some really cool things happening. I fucking dig UL so much, it’s hard not to compare them since they are from the same recording sessions.

UL is just so much more cohesive. This definitely fella like 8-9 leftovers, and a handful of good tracks. I liked the singles better on ROTDC. Carry Me Home is Fucking killer. Gotta listen again, but standouts for me were:

Carry Me Home
Peace and Love
Eddie
Bag of Grins
Copperbelly
Tippa My Tongue

There’s some wild ass shit happening on In the Snow, but I can’t get past AK’s spoken word.

A lot of this stuff should probably have been left on the cutting room floor. Kiedis in particular is phoning it in on a lot of these tracks. His input on 'Reach Out' is laughably bad. That said, it must be hard to keep up as a vocalist when the other three appear to be churning out jams nonstop.

I dont hear it really

There might be a few songs that sound like reworked versions of something from UL and other has a B side vibe quality around them, but overall it feels like a very adventurous effort.

Amazon had my preorder from several months back slated for a 10/25 delivery. This morning, I cancelled and reordered - at the same price - and it'll be delivered tomorrow.

Makes perfect sense!
