Originally posted by zoologistThe Chilis have done some ace stuff but they've been going downhill for a long time now. They peaked with Blood Sugar Sex Magic. One Hot Minute with ex-Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro was good too, if a bit uneven. Same goes for Frusciante's comeback Californication but it will not get better than that anymore. The fact is that the Chilis have just gotten too old for a band of their nature to really shine anymore like they did some 10 years ago or so. I'm glad if they manage to prove me wrong, and I do hope so, but I seriously doubt it.
