Breaking: the Red Hot Chili Peppers are 'almost done' recording their first new album with guitarist John Frusciante since 2006's Stadium Arcadium, drummer Chad Smith tells us
in December 2019 after a decade-long absence, displacing Josh Klinghoffer, who had taken over in his absence. After taking two months off at the beginning of the pandemic, the Peppers formed a Covid bubble and began rehearsing with just one “tech guy” in the room. They spent months writing songs, uninterrupted, before entering the studio earlier this year. “We were gonna play some festivals that obviously got postponed,” says Smith.
“You can’t really think about that,” says Smith. “All of our records are just real good snapshots of where we’re at that time. You can’t really go, ‘oh gee I hope it’s as good as’… Then you’re starting to have preconceived notions about what you want to write. Look, John hasn’t been in our group in 10 years, that’s a long time. So of course it’s going to sound different, but it’s gonna sound like the four of us because we do have this special chemistry together.
