Description
The Red Hot Chili Peppers‘ 11th studio album, 2016’s The Getaway, is a sophisticated work of dark-hued maturity that finds the long-running California outfit expanding their sound into nuanced, ’70s-style orchestral soul and funky psychedelia. The album follows the equally adventurous I’m with You(2011) and once again showcases guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, who replaced John Frusciante in 2009. A major difference, however, between I’m with You and The Getaway was the band’s choice to work with producer/instrumentalist Brian Burton (aka Danger Mouse). The Getaway is a nuanced album, rife with journeyman craft and poetry, that proves the Red Hot Chili Peppers still have plenty of their own creative fire.
