Peppers “Rock” Out New Songs
The Red Hot Chili Peppers entered a California studio earlier this
summer to record two new tracks for an upcoming greatest hits
collection. They left with fifteen.
“It was the fastest we have ever recorded so much material,”
bassist Flea writes in a Web post. “We gave it no thought, we just
rocked and it worked well . . . [it] is among the most diverse and
dynamic good-feeling shit we have ever done.”
The still-untitled greatest hits collection is due in November,
but no release date has been set for the album of new material.
The Chili Peppers begin the second leg of their North American
tour behind their latest album, By the Way/I>, September 6th
in Washington D.C.
