Californicationis the seventh studio album by U.S. rock bandRed Hot Chili Peppers,released on June 8, 1999, onWarner Bros. Records.[3]It was produced byRick Rubin.Along withBlood Sugar Sex Magik,Californicationis one of the band’s best-selling albums.
Californicationmarked the return of guitaristJohn Frusciante,who'd previously appeared onMother's MilkandBlood Sugar Sex Magik,and shifted the band's style. The lyrics incorporated the sexual innuendos already associated with the band, but added themes including death, suicide, California, drugs, globalization and travel.
Californicationis the Chili Peppers' most commercially successful studio release internationally, with more than 15 million copies sold worldwide, and more than seven million in the United States alone.[4]As of 2002, the album had sold more than four million copies in Europe.[5]The record yielded several hits for the band, including "Otherside,""Californication"and theGrammy Award-winning "Scar Tissue."Californicationpeaked at number three on the U.S.Billboard200.
The record marked a significant change in style for the band:Rolling Stone's Greg Tate noted that "while all previous Chili Peppers projects have been highly spirited,Californicationdares to be spiritual and epiphanic ".[6]Another critic,Billboard's Paul Verna, mentioned that the album brought out "the group's softer, melodic side", as opposed to their previous six albums.[7]
Background
[edit]In 1991, the Red Hot Chili Peppers released their breakthrough albumBlood Sugar Sex MagikonWarner Bros. Records.[1]The album sold seven million copies in the United States, and became a seminal component of thealternative rockexplosion in the early 1990s.[1][8]After the release ofBlood Sugar Sex Magik,the guitaristJohn Fruscianteleft the Red Hot Chili Peppers, as he became overwhelmed by the band's newfound popularity.[9]Dave Navarrowas hired as his replacement, and incorporated elements ofheavy metalandpsychedelic rockon the band's 1995 albumOne Hot Minute.[10]The album failed to match the critical and commercial success of its predecessor, and Navarro left in early 1998.[1]
In the years following his departure, Frusciante became addicted to heroin and cocaine, leaving him in poverty and near death.[11]Friends convinced Frusciante to enter drug rehabilitation, and in 1998, he rejoined the Red Hot Chili Peppers at the insistence of bassistFlea.[12]While in rehab, Frusciante came to terms with rock stardom; in aRolling Stoneinterview, he said: "It got into my head that stardom was something evil. If you were a rock star, you were trying to put people on. I don't see it that way anymore."[12]With Frusciante, the Red Hot Chili Peppers began brainstorming ideas for a new album. Flea suggested the group record an album withelectronicinfluences, akin toZooropabyU2.[13]When the band was turned down by multiple electronic music producers (includingDavid Bowie), they decided to instead pursue analternative rockdirection with throwbacks to their roots.[13][14]
Writing and recording
[edit]![Rick Rubin in 2009](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/43/RickRubinSept09.jpg/180px-RickRubinSept09.jpg)
The majority of the music forCalifornicationwas written at Flea's makeshift garage studio in the summer of 1998. It took Frusciante several weeks to readjust to playing with bandmates, especially while recovering from drug addiction.[13]SingerAnthony Kiedisnoted that as a result of this readjustment period, Frusciante adopted minimalist approach to guitar playing.[15]According to biographer Jeff Apter, the Red Hot Chili Peppers wrote between 30 and 40 songs for the album, which would eventually get distilled to 15 for the release.[16]The band members took on a laid-back approach to writing music. As Kiedis said: "Everyone was having fun. It was as if we had nothing to lose, nothing to gain. We didn't care; we were making music for the sake of making music."[17]
Californicationwas recorded atCello StudiosinLos Angeles,and took a little over three weeks to complete.[18][19]The band choseRick Rubinto produce the album. Rubin had worked with the Red Hot Chili Peppers on their two previous albums, and Kiedis noted that there was some hesitation to reenlist him. "We thought that maybe it was time to get a new producer. Every time you make a record, it doesn't matter how good it was working with a producer, and even if you know you're going to end up making a record with that same person again, there's always a day when someone says, 'Do we want to get a new producer?'"[20]About a week into the recording sessions,Jim Scottwas brought in as a replacementaudio engineer,as the band was not happy with the original production.[18][19]The band was timely and professional, in comparison to what Rubin described as the "day-long pot sessions or sexual indulgences" that had plagued the recording sessions for previous albums.[16]
Recording the songs took five days.[19]All four band members recorded their instruments at the same time within the same room.[18]Rubin and Scott wanted the audio to be "dry and punchy", and thus placed numerous microphones directly next to the instruments.[18]Among the microphones used wereShure SM57s,Neumann U47s,andSennheiser MD 421s.[18]Californicationwas recorded usingNeve8038 desk on twoAmpex124 24-tracktape recorders.Scott induced significantequalizationusing Neve 1073 EQs.[18]There was minimaloverdubbing.Once the songs were recorded, the tracks from the second 24-track machine containing vocals were transferred over toPro Toolsto allow easy experimentation to establish a "map" of how various portions of the vocals would fit together prior toanalogassembly of these portions.[18]Continuing on the theme of making the album sound "dry and punchy", most ofCalifornicationwas mixed usingmonauralsound.[18]Scott felt the initial recordings were already good, and thus very little was altered during the mixing sessions.[18]The album was mixed separately on various digital formats (includingDigital Audio TapeandDA-88) to compare the sound, and Scott eventually used an analog 2‑track at 30inches per second.[18]
Many of the songs were known by alternate/working titles during the recording/writing process: All Around the World ( "Around the World" ), Universe ( "Parallel Universe" ), Dirt ( "I Like Dirt" ), Porcelain Alice ( "Porcelain" ), Right On ( "Get on Top" ) How Strong is My Love? ( "How Strong" ), New Wave Song ( "Quixoticelixer" ), These are Not My Dreams of Bunker Hill, Dreams from Bunker Hill ( "Bunker Hill" ) and Blondie ( "Instrumental #2" )

Teatro sessions
[edit]In September 1998 the band went intoDaniel Lanois' El Teatro studio inOxnard, Californiato begin their rehearsal and record demos for the album that would eventually becomeCalifornication.The sessions, which were dubbed theTeatro Sessions,remained unreleased until 2014 when they leaked to the internet. The sessions featured early versions of songs that would eventually appear on the album however some were much different than the final versions that appeared on the album. Songs such as "Californication" and "Purple Stain" contain vastly different instrumentation and are essentially different songs. "I Like Dirt" and "Bunker Hill" have different bridges. Many songs also feature unfinished or different lyrics from their final studio versions. The sessions also featured seven songs that never made it past the demo stage and went unreleased and unheard until the leak. These songs included "Tellin' a Lie", "Mommasan", "Andaman & Nicobar", "Sugar Sugar", "Trouble in the Pub", "Boatman", "Plate of Brown" and also various instrumental jams. Of the songs recorded during these sessions, the instrumental "Teatro Jam" and the demo for "Parallel Universe" were officially released on the "Around the World" single.[21]
Composition
[edit]![John Frusciante in 2006](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/JohnFruscianteAugust2006.jpg/170px-JohnFruscianteAugust2006.jpg)
Most of the material and lyrics throughout the songs in the album came from the "personal and professional turmoil" that different members of the band went through or were currently going through at the time. This resulted in the "sensitive approach that one might not expect from a band whose followers are skate-punks and fraternity boys". Kiedis's main point behind this album was to "tell tales of wandering souls who've lost their way searching for the American dream in California".
Californication'slyrics were derived from Kiedis' ideas, outlooks, and perceptions of life and its meaning. "Porcelain" resulted from Kiedis' meeting with a young single mother at theYMCA,who was attempting to battle her heroin addiction while living with her infant daughter in Los Angeles during the summer of 1998.[22]Regarding the meeting that inspired the song, Kiedis said in 1999, "[the] Mum's in a haze, strung out on heroin, but the little girl's this beaming-wide sunball of an angel. The woman loves her daughter, but the juxtaposition of their energies is profound."[23]Kiedis also had a love interest in Yohanna Logan, a fashion designer whom Kiedis met while she was working in New York City. Kiedis' involvement with Logan influenced his examination of love throughoutCalifornication,in songs such as "This Velvet Glove".[24][23]Sarcasm was a concept that Kiedis had dealt with in the past, and he ultimately crafted a song around it. He was inspired by Navarro, whom he considered to be the "King of Sarcasm".[25]Frusciante approached the guitar line present in "Scar Tissue" as an attempt to use two notes that are played far apart, but produce a "cool rhythm".[26]He had explored this technique on his first solo album, 1994'sNiandra LaDes and Usually Just a T-Shirt.Frusciante considers "Scar Tissue" to be a "very simple example of the technique, but I think it's a style that sounds like me". The guitarist made use ofslide guitar-playing for the solos in the song.[26]"Emit Remmus" was inspired by Kiedis' brief relationship withMelanie Cof theSpice Girls.[27]
"Get on Top", a song which contains significant use of awah pedal,was formed after a jam session conducted shortly after Frusciante had listened toPublic Enemy:"I came up with [the rhythm to the song] on the way to rehearsal—just tapping it out with my foot."[26]The understated guitar solo played in the middle of the song was originally intended to be more noticeable, according to Frusciante, who was playing screaming guitar solos. He changed his thought process after listening toSteve Howe's guitar solo onYes' "Siberian Khatru":"the band sounded really big—and they're playing really fast—and then this clean guitar solo comes out over on top. It's really beautiful, like it's on its own sort of shelf. For 'Get On Top' I wanted to play something that contrasted between the solo and the background. "[26]"Savior", a song found towards the end of the album, features heavyeffects,most notably anElectro-HarmonixMicro Synth with 16-seconddelay.[26]Frusciante notes that the sound is "directly inspired byEric Clapton's playing inCream.If you listen to the actual notes, they're like a Clapton solo—they just don't sound like it because of the effects. "[26]
The hit "Around the World", which harkens back to the Chili Peppers' funk-influenced sound, was constructed by Frusciante at his home. The rhythm and beat, however, are intricate; this required him to play the song with the rest of the band rather than alone for them to understand it.[26]The basslickwas composed in "maybe 15 minutes," according to Frusciante: "Flea is the best bass player in the world. His sense of timing and the way he thinks is so crazy."[26]The title track of the album was among the most difficult for the band to complete. Frusciante felt compelled to write an appropriate guitar ensemble that would appropriately complement the poignant lyrical content, but encountered difficulty.[28]The song was barely making progress, and would have been scrapped had it not been for Kiedis' urging to include it on the album. Frusciante completed the final riff two days before recording, after drawing inspiration fromthe Cure's soundtrack song to "Carnage Visors".[26][28]The title track was intended to represent Californian lifestyles and, more specifically, the "fake" nature which is associated with much ofHollywood.It referencesKurt CobainofNirvanaand uses considerable imagery to capture the evocative nature of California.[28]
The record was a change of style for the Chili Peppers, especially compared toOne Hot Minute.AlthoughCalifornicationstill contains somefunk rocksongs (such as "Around the World", "Get on Top", "I Like Dirt", "Purple Stain" and "Right on Time" ), it leaned towards more melodic riffs (for example, "Scar Tissue"and"Otherside") and focused on songs with implemented structure rather thanjams.[29]
Promotion and release
[edit]To promoteCalifornication,the Red Hot Chili Peppers developed what biographer Jeff Apter called an "Internet presence opening themselves up to a whole new type of listener – the cyber geek."[30]From June 4 to June 8, three newCalifornicationsongs werestreamedevery day on the band's website.[30]Flea engaged with fans online with a series of Internet posts called "Fleamail", in which he would discuss the recording process, upcoming tour dates, and occasionallystream of consciousnessstyle thoughts about his life.[31]The Red Hot Chili Peppers also performed at various high schoolpromsacross the United States shortly before the release of the album.[31]The idea was to reintroduce the Red Hot Chili Peppers to a younger audience.[31]The theme of these performances was "Stop The Hate", which was in response to theColumbine High School massacre.The price of admission was a written suggestion on how to prevent bullying and hatred among high school students.[31]
Californicationwas released on June 8, 1999, byWarner Bros. Records.[32]It debuted at number 3 on theBillboard200chart, and sold 189,000 copies by June 26, surpassing the initial sales ofBlood Sugar Sex MagikandOne Hot Minute.[33]By July 3,Californicationdropped to number 7, and stayed on theBillboard200 chart for 101 weeks.[34][35]It has since been certified 7× Platinum by theRecording Industry Association of America,for selling over 7 million copies in the United States.[36]Californicationalso saw significant commercial success outside of the United States. For example, in England, the album peaked at number 5 on theUK Albums Chart,and stayed on the chart for 169 weeks.[37]It was eventually certified 4× Platinum by theBritish Phonographic Industryfor selling 1.2 million copies in England.[38]Other notable peaks include reaching number 1 on the Australian, Finnish, Italian, New Zealand, Norwegian, and Swedish charts.[39][40][41][42][43][44]As of 2019,Californicationis the best selling Red Hot Chili Peppers album, with sales of over 15 million copies worldwide.[45]
A large part ofCalifornication'scommercial success can be attributed to the popularity of itssingles.[45]The three most popular singles were "Californication", "Otherside", and "Scar Tissue".[45]William Goodman ofBillboardwrote: "You couldn't exist in American pop culture without hearing its singles."[45]"Scar Tissue" was thelead single,and in the accompanyingmusic video,the four band members ride in a convertible throughJoshua Tree National Park.[46]"Scar Tissue" spent 16 weeks atop theMainstream Rockchart in the United States, and peaked at number 9 on theBillboardHot 100.[47]Additionally, the song was added to the rotation of all 91modern rockradio stations in the United States, the first song to accomplish the feat since "Discothèque"byU2.[47]"Californication" and "Otherside" also saw significant radio play, peaking at number 69 and 14 on theBillboardHot 100 respectively.[48]
Californication Tour
[edit]Immediately following the release ofCalifornication,the band embarked on aworld tourto support the record, beginning in the United States. To culminate the United States leg of their tour, the Red Hot Chili Peppers were asked to closeWoodstock '99,which became infamous for the resulting violence.[49][50]The band was informed minutes before arriving that the crowds and bonfires in the fields had gone out of control.[49]When the Red Hot Chili Peppers performed acoverof "Fire"bythe Jimi Hendrix Experienceto finish their set, the disruption escalated into violence when several women, who had beencrowd surfingandmoshing,were raped and nearby property was looted and destroyed.[51][52][50]The Washington Postreported that the decision to perform "Fire" was already scheduled prior to the festival, and was not in response to the ongoing fires.[51]When asked about the event, Smith said: "[The fire] literally looked like a little hamburger stand had a grease fire or something... It looked like nothing from where we were at."[53]
To kick off the band's European tour, the band staged a free show in Moscow'sRed Square,on August 14, 1999, to a crowd of over 200,000. Kiedis recalled the situation: "Red Square was so filled with wall-to-wall Russians that we needed a police escort to get near the stage."[54]Following the European leg, the group did a show inNew York City,at theWindows on the World,forKROQradio contest-winners, and then at theBig Day Outfestival in Australia following several Japanese tour dates.[55]Flea, however, began to feel the repercussions of touring causing the band to set up concerts that were less strenuous, and consequently less financially rewarding, for them. These shows would finish the remainder of theCalifornicationtour.[56]As one of the last shows before the release of their next albumBy the Way,the Red Hot Chili Peppers played atRock in Rio 3in Rio de Janeiro.[57]

Californicationwas very well-received by music critics in contrast toOne Hot Minuteand it was a greater success worldwide.[32]Rolling Stonecredited Kiedis for his drastically improved vocals: "[his] vocal cords have apparently been down to some crossroads and over the rehab, and returned with heretofore unheard-of range, body, pitch, soulfulness, and melodic sensibility."[6]Songs such as "Otherside" and "Porcelain" were called "Pumpkins-esque ", while the album as a whole was" epiphanal "and the" RHCP furthermuckers are now moving toward funk's real Holy Grail: that salty marriage of esoteric mythology and insatiable musicality that salvages souls, binds communities and heals the sick. "[6]Howard Cohen hailedCalifornicationas a major improvement over its predecessor in theMiami Herald,finding it features the band's "most accomplished music" to date.[65]TheEdmonton Journal'sSandra Sperounes predicted that the "mighty dope" album would be a success, and "Scar Tissue" and "Otherside" would be chart toppers. She praised the renewed instrumentation and harmonies but took issue with the numerous references to California.[66]
Other critics credited the album's success to the return of Frusciante.AllMusic's Greg Prato said that the "obvious reason for [the band's] rebirth is the reappearance of guitarist John Frusciante", considering him to be the "quintessential RHCP guitarist".[32]The album as a whole was "abona fideChili Peppers classic ".[32]Entertainment Weeklyalso credits Frusciante with transforming the band's sound into a "more relaxed, less grating, and, in their own way, more introspective album than ever before".[29]Mark Woodlief ofRay Guncommented that "'This Velvet Glove' strikes an intricate balance between a lush acoustic guitar foundation and anthemic rock," Woodlief continued "the disco intro to 'Parallel Universe' gives way to a scorching Western giddy-up motif in the chorus, and Frusciante's Hendrix-like excursions at the song's close."[67]
While many critics found the band's new sound refreshing,NMEcriticized the Chili Peppers for rarely using their trademark funk sound, asking: "Can we have our brain-dead, half-dressed funk-hop rock animals back now, please? All this false empathy is starting to make my removed rib tingle."[68]Pitchfork,while considering the album a triumph overOne Hot Minute,feltCalifornicationlacked the funk that was ever-present inBlood Sugar Sex Magik.[62]It went on to scrutinize some lyrics for being overly sexual, but also considered Frusciante to be "the best big-time American rock guitarist going right now".[62]CriticRobert Christgaugave the album a one-star honorable mention (), describing the band as "New Agefuck fiends "and citing" Scar Tissue "and" Purple Stain "as highlights.[69]
Retrospective commentary
[edit]Since its release, some journalists have creditedCalifornicationwith revitalizing the Red Hot Chili Peppers' image and relevancy.[46][70][71]During the eight year period between the band's breakthrough album–Blood Sugar Sex Magik–andCalifornication,the Red Hot Chili Peppers' only release wasOne Hot Minute,which was seen by fans and critics as a failure.[71]Additionally, the rise of the Internet and online music streaming platforms such asNapstergave consumers more options to listen to, which meant established bands like the Red Hot Chili Peppers no longer had built-in followings.[72]Writing about this period of the band's career, Ryan Leas ofStereogumsaid: "RHCP had already been around since the early days of the '80s, but they were now approaching the other side of another decade, one that had granted them stardom... they were positioned for,in need of,a comeback moment. "[71]Loudwire'sChad Childer's offers similar commentary, and believesCalifornicationhelped solidify the band's status as eventual inductees in theRock and Roll Hall of Fame.[70]
WhenCalifornicationwas released, some listeners complained of excessivecompressionanddistortion.[73]This criticism persisted throughout the 2000s, and some journalists citedCalifornicationas an example of an album affected by theloudness war,a trend in which audio levels are increased at the expense of audio fidelity.[73][74][75]In his 2009 bookPerfecting Sound Forever,Greg Milner notes thatCalifornicationbecame one of the most heavily derided albums within online audio mastering communities, and that there are multiple online petitions for Warner Bros. to remaster Red Hot Chili Peppers albums without the excessive compression and distortion.[76]
In 2003,Rolling Stonereleased their list of the500 Greatest Albums of All TimewithCalifornicationranking at 399.[77]It fell to 401 in the 2012 revised list,[78]but moved up to 286 in both the 2020 and 2024 revised lists.[79]In 2015, the staff ofUltimate Classic RocknamedCalifornicationone of the best rock albums of the 1990s.[80]The album was also included in the 2018 edition of Robert Dimery's book1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.[81]
