透露了將發表的首支單曲，以及專輯中的部份曲目！ http://ppt.cc/UCRK "There is no question – this is a beginning," Anthony Kiedis, singer of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, says in his first interview about the band's new album, I'm With You, which is released by Warner Bros. on August 30th. "Yeah, the sun is just coming up here." "無庸置疑，這是一個開端" AK在"I'm With You"，紅椒最新專輯的訪談中如此說。 "沒錯，太陽照樣升起" Produced by Rick Rubin, I'm With You is the Los Angeles quartet's first studio album since the 2006 double-disk set, Stadium Arcadium. The 14-song record also marks the debut of the Chili Peppers' new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, who joined in the fall of 2009 following the departure of John Frusciante. The latter guitarist had been a crucial writer as well as player on the Chili Peppers' biggest albums, including 1991's Blood Sugar Sex Magik and 1999's Californication. But after he quit, Kiedis and bassist Flea "had this intuitive feeling," the singer says. "We're not really done. We wanted to maintain the Red Hot Chili Peppers if we could do it in a way that upheld historically what we had accomplished. 新專輯總共有14首歌，接替John的吉他手是Josh Klingfoffer， John離團後，AK與Flea有一種直覺告訴他們： "我們還沒玩完。我們想要維持嗆辣紅椒，維持我們長久以來完成的成果" "There were some interesting conversations," Kiedis goes on, "about do we try to find someone we don't know, or maybe there is somebody right in our own backyard who is the perfect solution." Klinghoffer, 31, was a veteran sideman who had recorded and toured with Beck, PJ Harvey and Tricky, among many others. He was also a friend of Frusciante's, working on several of that guitarist's solo records, and had performed with the Chili Peppers on their last world tour, playing extra guitar and keyboards. AK接著說： "在尋找遞補人選的過程中有一些很有意思的對話，我們想要找一個我們不認識的人，或是這個人已經在我們身邊很久了，而他剛是最好的解答" Klinghoffer是一位經驗相當豐富的伴奏，他與許多大咖錄製且巡迴過。同時也是John的朋友，與他合作數張個人專輯，並且在紅椒的上次世界巡迴中，擔任第二吉他與鍵盤手。 "I felt like I had the experience," Klinghoffer says in his first-ever press interview, sitting next to Kiedis on a couch in the singer's Malibu home. "There was no real adjustment. This is playing music with people I admire and who have been friends for years." Josh首次在媒體訪問中談到： "我覺得我有足夠的經驗。因此這中間沒有調適的問題。很單純是和一群我仰慕且相交多年的朋友一起玩音樂如此而已" "Josh has not lacked the necessary assertions," Kiedis notes. "His voice is as dominant as any other voice on the record." That is literally true. In addition to playing guitar, Klinghoffer contributed keyboards and backing vocals. He also co-wrote the music with Kiedis, Flea and drummer Chad Smith. AK補充："Josh沒有被邊緣化(?)。他的聲音就像專輯中其他聲音具有相同優勢。" 確實沒錯。Josh除了擔任吉他演奏，亦包辦了鍵盤與和音的工作。並且與其他三人共同創作。 The album's first single, "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie," is a hard-pop spin on classic Chili Peppers funk, with a creeping bass line and a marching-disco rhythm in the chorus reminiscent of the late-Seventies Rolling Stones. In fact, Flea likens the rich propulsive interplay on I'm With You – the mix of jamming exploration, textural guitar details and savvy hooks in songs such as "The Monarchy of Roses," "Factory of Faith" and "See You Around" – to the classic Stones albums like Exile on Main Street and Tattoo You that he listened to religiously as the Chili Peppers wrote and improvised on new material in 2009 and 2010. "It's about a feeling and a song." Flea says of the connection, "about everyone embracing the moment of the song, not always about the riff." 首支單曲"The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie"，有著經典紅椒式的funk曲風，有超殺的貝斯部，以及復古的行軍式迪斯可的和弦。 Flea將此張專輯中那股豐富漸進的交互作用比喻成， the mix of jamming exploration, textural guitar details and savvy hooks，從"The Monarchy of Roses"、"Factory of Faith"與"See You Around"，皆可感受出Flea不但受到前人的影響，還揉合了新的元素。 Flea說道： "這是關於一種感受、一首歌，關於每個人擁抱這首曲子的時刻，而不是單單只是彈奏技巧" The Chili Peppers are currently in rehearsals and plan to tour extensively in support of I'm With You. "Forever" is how Flea puts it. "I know when we write mediocre stuff, and when we write good stuff," Kiedis says. "I can't wait to go out and play this." 紅椒們最近正緊鑼密鼓的排練並準備巡迴。 "永遠(持續下去)" Flea說 AK："不管我們寫了普通的還是好的東西，我都等不及做發表與演出。" -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 27.147.0.144
