Picked this up at the brocante along with SOAD two albums. After Californication, which A. gifted me on vinyl, diving into One Hot Minute felt like stepping into a parallel RHCP universe. I didn’t know any of the songs at first, and that made it feel like a mystery—raw, unpredictable, and oddly elusive. But I kept listening. Again and again.
“Aeroplane” stood out early on. It had that unmistakable Chili Peppers bounce, like a familiar voice in a crowd of strangers. But the rest? It was harder to grasp.
But I listened to it over and over, and more I listen, the better it gets!
