Album Review, I suppose I'll review some albums then...

RHCP is, probably, my favorite band ever. Yet, when I originally bought (yeah, I paid cash money) this two disk set, I felt jipped. I felt only the first CD had the good music. The first CD has Dani California, Hump de Bump, and Snow ((Hey Oh)), the hits from the album, and the second has a bunch of slow songs.

Looking at the auto-ratings in my Zune player, all the songs on the second CD have five white stars, which means that I listen to those much more than I do the first CD. Cool.

Anyways, I don't know if half the songs on this album are rock band material, but I like 'em.

it is a pretty good album , i was really unsure of the album at first but the more you listen to it the better it gets, these are the songs that i like to hear the most

Disc 1 - Jupiter
Snow ((Hey oh))
Stadium Arcadium
Hump de Bump
Especially in Michigan

Disc 2 - Mars
Tell me Baby
Hard to Concentrate
Make You Feel Better
Animal Bar

both discs have mixtures and combinations of their funk days and alternative rock days

which give the album high replay value for both their funk days fans and alternative rock days fans

I love Stadium Arcadium, I'm not going to say it is their best one, but it really is great, and has a real nice flow to it. I find myself being able to listen to every song on that album, and listen to it straight through, and I think that is a really good sign of a very solid album.

I really like, Snow, Hard to Concentrate, Tell Me Baby, Storm in a Teacup, and Readymade, and every other song on there.

"Torture Me" is definitely my favorite of the two CDs. Cool bass!

Flee is the man! Though after watching a few interviews about their music, I have to say keitus is a douche.

Stadium Arcadium is nowhere near the Peppers earlier work. When my little sisters friends are singing it thats a bad sign. Californication should have been the grand finale. I really hope Blood Sugar is DLC.

I can't believe I've found this thread still alive, surely Harmonix is getting some kind of message.

Stadium Arcadium is one of the best RHCP albums ever. Flea is one of the best rock bassists in the world. That guitar solo for Dani California is sick! Watched the live performance of that song on Top of The Pops (i'm sure it's on youtube somewhere)... love how the song starts slow and then just builds up in that powerful solo and outro... Cool ****.

Stadium Arcadium renewed my faith in RHCP. I think BSSM is by far their best album from all perspectives, but every album after that were uninspired, mediocre albums with one or two fairly good songs mixed in. I continued to buy all their albums even though I kept disappointing myself. I almost didn't pick this one up. A Double album? Whew, that's going to be a lot of disappointing material. But I think it stands very close to BSSM. If I could drop one or two songs off each disc, it might even be equal to BSSM. Anyway, I agree it's a great album. They seemed to have finally recaptured that RHCP magic.

Maybe it won't fall apart again for the next one.

Worn this CD out completely.

Surprised nobody put "Desacration Smile" in their fav list. Great song.

Saw them for the first time live on this most recent tour and it was an amazing experience to finally see them first hand.

They are really tight, awesome musicians.

Really bland music. Horrible lyrics.

Being a huge Chili's fan, I really liked the album, however it doesn't stack well against BSSM and Californication at all. They don't need another Dani California on their next album.

Stadium Arcadium is such weak sauce. RHCP earlier work is so much better.

Agree completely. Blood Sugar Sex Magick please.
