Despite Ben Kenney being the much better bassist? (Coz he is)

I saw them live last year, my favourite songs live were those of ACLOTM.

It's the best album they've done by far. Calling it dreadful is rather silly.

Are you really, seriously trying to say that the Chili Peppers have been anything other than mellow?

Scar Tissue is one of their very best songs.

right, so your saying because YOU say its the best album they have done so far, that i must think it is? alas you are wrong, therefore, calling it dreadful is not silly, but my opinion.

And from what ive heard on the new album, i have not heard any bass lines that can top dirks lines, i just found there new album sounds too much like everything else, unlike there old material that i found more original.

Sorry if you disagree but thats my opinion

No it dosnt really bother me but some bands would just not sound right if they went soft. Like Cannibal Corpse, look at how deep they make their vocals. I dont see how they could make one song without having a sore throat after singing.

I put Ben Kenney above Dirk for the simple reason that he created great stuff on the new album, can handle all the old stuff AND can improvise amazingly. When I saw them live he played an awesome bass solo, just randomly sitting there.

Thats a good point, he has managed to learn all of Dirks stuff aswell i forgot that aspect.

I wouldnt know about the bass solo though, ive never seen him with them live , i saw incubus back in the dirk days

I dunno what happened but something happened with the speakers. Brandon, Mike and Jose walked off and Ben just sat there playing an amazing bass solo. Both technically and musically.

You should make a note to see them live next time they tour.
