I hate the RHCP, but I enjoy his solo stuff from time to time.
"The Will to Death" is an amazing song.

I think he was kinda cute in 1992. He should cut his hair.
He's a good guitarist. It was more agrressive and approachable than the style of the guy he replaced.

his music is amazing. his vocals struck me everytime. in an interview i once read he seemed to have some really cool views on making music.
I love this man.
'Curtains' is amazing album, very inspiring and very beautiful. One of my favourite albums ever
New album called 'Automatic Writing II' will be released in the end of this month, on 29th may (on my birthday
)
Here is what John said about AW II:
ATAXIA was a band for about two weeks in February 2004. It’s members are Joe Lally of Fugazi, Josh Klinghoffer and John Frusciante.
The word ‘Ataxia’ is Greek for ‘disorder’. We were unaware at the time that it also has a meaning in English which is: total or partial inability to coordinate voluntary bodily movements, as in walking.
In keeping with our names’ Greek meaning (quite unintentionally), the sections of our songs never had an arranged order. All our songs’ foundations are the bass which always plays one part throughout. The drums and guitar move about and generally use the vocal as their guide. The vocals and words were written, but the order the vocal sections occurred in, and how long the spaces between were, was different every time. So we would all stay on our toes to stay together for dynamics, changes in groove, switches to new sections, etc.
We played two shows and recorded two records. The first record was released in August 2004. It was named after the surrealist activity called Automatic Writing. That was where people like Andre Breton and Max Ernst would write words in the form of sentences and paragraphs, but with absolutely no conscious attempt at meaning. They would observe the structure of their subconscious and it’s peculiar methods of organization (or the lack thereof) this way. And if there is one sure answer I can give to the question, “How did you write and record two albums in a week and a half?”, it is that we gave absolutely no thought to what we were doing, whatsoever.
This music is unblemished by any expectations of a specific result, on our part. The three of us simply got together to hear what music had to say that week. We had fun together and this is the record of that fun.
