"Unlimited Love" is 13th album of one of my favorite bands of all time - Red Hot Chili Peppers. It is a special record because came back to the squad long time guitarist John Frusciante. After thirteen years of no presence in Chili's, he decided (talking together with the fellow members) to join forces again.
The album is a fantastic continuation of the work they finished together over 1o years ago but very fresh and innovative in many ways. Most songs topically gravitating around the theme of love and mundane problems especially on the emotional, meta level i.e. perceiving the reality in the wrong / bad colors instead of looking the ways to brighten everyday life and simply making it better.
First two singles "Black Summer" and "Poster Child" are different stylistically from each other and touching different surfaces of reality. Both are very introspective but the main appeal of the first one is directed straight to the individual - every person on earth whilst the second one is more about the people (more of a young ones) which creating their world based on the persons from .. literally their posters.
On the other hand songs like "Veronica" and "The Heavy Wing" are treating about the lost ways in life and abandonment through the delusional 'glasses of reality' .. sometimes it's just not like we think it is and also we can wrongly finish our relationships with others, where we're guided by not right emotions or blinded by our conditioning.
Beautiful and calmed "Tangelo" is closing the record with a message of closeness and unity again proving that those guys have the power to create songs which will touch every smart soul on a deeper level because of their creativity and chemistry felt in every songs they have made throughout the years.
The album is one of my favourite in 2o22 and worth to recommend.
Chili's are back and they're heading to release another album..this year! So, lovely people stay tuned, listen and we're rock with them !!!
Peace ...
