| Dani California is the lead single of Stadium Arcadium |
Stadium Arcadium is the new Red Hot Chili Peppers album. The collection will contain 28 songs divided between two discs, one dubbed Jupiter and the other Mars.
Singer Anthony Kiedis, bassist Flea, guitarist John Frusciante and drummer Chad Smith actually wrote 38 songs, recording all of them with producer Rick Rubin in the same house in the Hollywood Hills where they recorded BloodSugarSexMagic.
"We set out to write 13 songs", says Kiedis. "But as has been the case every time we've tried to do that, we ended up with 30-some-odd songs. The difference this time was we ended up liking all of those songs and finishing all of those songs, and it actually became a very difficult process to even whittle it down to 28”.
"Every album we do, we try to have a concept and a sense of direction", Frusciante explains. "The most important idea for this album was movement".
"The chemistry was in better order than in a long time", Kiedis told Spin earlier this year. "Everyone is frighteningly happy at the moment".
The lead single, Dani California, is supported by a video directed by Tony Kaye (American History X) portraying a history of rock 'n' roll.
Jupiter CD track listing comprises: Dani California, Snow (Hey Oh), Charlie, Stadium Arcadium, Hump de Bump, She's Only 18, Slow Cheetah, Torture Me, Strip My Mind, Especially in Michigan, Warlocks, C'mon Girl, Wet Sand and Hey.
Mars CD track listing comprises: Desecration Smile, Tell Me Baby, Hard to Concentrate, 21st Century, She Looks to Me, Readymade, If, Make You Feel Better, Animal Bar, So Much I, Storm in a Teacup, We Believe, Turn It Again and Death of a Martian.
Kiedis says of the double album's title: "I hope it means something different to everyone, but to me, in the chorus of the song Stadium Arcadium, I get the feeling of being off in the wilderness with a large group of people creating a huge light, playing music for those people and reflecting the love that's going on between us and them". |
