I have always been a huge RHCP and Frusciante fan. I cannot remember him ever sounding this good, clear-minded, and healthy. It makes me so happy and excited for the future of music.
He has come a long way from them days when he was lying on the floor in his house skinny as and high as kite that stuff had to happen I think to create his own strength and use it as torture so he knows what the other side is and he im proud of him he could of been anywhere else but alive if he carried e5 more minutes the ghosts started haunting him telling him hay man you are not finished yet and you still alive go back and you will be amazed with what awaits I believe it to he was to young to be in such a massive band that he wasn't ready to deal with the other things that come with it stuff he through his guitar was all he needed but he needed to grow himself up in himself instead of being outside in he's now able to get in to it not out of it 5 mins away from the end after 11, million spent on drugs he said
I am a former cocaine addict almost two months deep into sobriety and on psychiatric treatment, untitled #2 felt like the most relatable feeling of being suicidal, mentally ill and addicted at the same time, I used to listen and cry rivers to it after failing my promise of every morning, "tonight I will not get high" "these next lines are my last ones" etc, the pain of simply existing and being a walking wasted chance of a human being who failed his partner and family. Now that all of it is behind, it also feels like a beautiful call to life, the song feels like all my darkness trapped into an isolated place I can revisit to put things in perspective and rejoice in the beauty of life and love, John Frusciante saved my life in big part.
Pete Townsend's 'Blue, Red, and Grey' broke me down in that same way. Something about an off-the-rails rock God pouring himself out on a ukulele caught me at my most hopless and lost. It was no fairytail from that point on, but that was the emotional toe-hold I needed to start the climb back into life. Here's to the healing powers of music. Hang in there.
That's so beautiful! It's just amazing to see so many people on this comment section saying his songs saved their lives. I don't think he knows how important his work is!
so glad my name is niandra thanks to my mom, biggest fan of RCHP. She wasn't so in touch with the album itself but I am completely in love with niandra laDes, I feel like I understand every lyric and melody. I love this connection.
This is beautiful to read. If I had a daughter I’d want to name her after this album. It’s a masterpiece of emotion connecting with musical genius, at the point when the artist is their lowest and most creatively free.
@@ДмитрийДмитрий-о9т У меня почему-то сложилось такое впечатление, что идеи Джона, а в особенности его музыкальный посыл не нашёл должного отклика на русско говорящих просторах.
this is hands down my favorite album of all time. i can’t even count on two hands the amount of times i’ve taken a tab and just sat with this album. i try to recommend it to my friends and they just don’t get it and i don’t blame them either. but it’s the one for me.
I can't imagine listening to this on a tab.. OK Computer is one of my fav albums but it was too depressing for me. Really found Room on Fire by the Strokes to be incredible though.
Your "Fruits" have Contributed to us all in ways that are Unimaginable, John. You are a true Artist in every sense of the Word and I am Grateful. Love n Respect from the (505)!
First time i listen to my smile is a riffle i couldnt stand the singing but now is my favorite song it makes me feel sad and nostalgic about times i didnt live
Love John so much.. he is an awesome human being. Sometimes the greatest minds are also the most tortured & mysterious. I hope your still doing well, John.
Yep but listening to it, as if it was a Trad Bob Dylan style Folk album really shows you how immensely symphonic and creative it is@@MusicissuperiorEVHROX316
That's so strange and true. Maybe not the exact same concept but yesterday I was on the guitar around 2 hours. Started to get tired. Was about to finish so I just layed on my back, still holding the guitar, I was randomly doing something without trying and not even looking at my hands or the fret board, and found myself play something I liked that I didn't come up with whilst paying attention the previous 2 hours. Ever happen to anyone?
yes...what happened with you, or so it sounds like to me, is that you entered the realm of "non-striving"... It sounds strange, but facility and technique often get in the way of a genuine self expression. When people are "good" at doing something, they end up doing that thing instead of playing from an internal/emotional center. When you get rid of any intention of being "good" or "skillful", you often fall back into the innocence of just feeling sound and tone color. Now, the real trick is to balance mechanics/process with inspiration. That is where you achieve mastery.
Soooo often Trying to hard kills legitimately brilliant creativity. My band write all of our best material off of live jams that just happen organically...then we go back and pick the best parts of the jams and build on those parts. Cant top natural uninhibited creative flow
Most favorite guitarist ❤️ inspired me for a new romance between my fingers and guitar lol. Most incredible soul. Wish to hug him one day, even though he doesn’t like any kind of contact with strangers
@@monicasaenz141 well lucky you 😅 I feel like he is not so happy when fans asking for photo or even just looking at him.. So I’m thinking what is the most accurate way to speak with him but not to be annoying. Of course in case if I ever meet him, what seems impossible or at least a miracle 😂
This album is so incredibly unique. For a lot of artists, drugs are part of the creative process. In my opinion, this album encapsulates the surreal, dark and often nonsensical parts of an addiction. It's the most raw an album could ever be. It's like a battle between John's working consciousness and the heroin. I'm just glad he got clean and made some of the most memorable songs of all time. If anything, this album is a direct insight into the haunting tribulations of substance abuse.
I really needed to hear this I’ve been in a funk where I would give up on projects bc they didn’t sound like the music of my friends or the musicians I personally admire.
I f’ing adore John Frusciante 🙌🏼💯 I have that album on vinyl, found it in a vintage music shop in SF and couldn’t believe people had no clue wtf it was! 😳 🤦🏻♀️ He’s just one of the most unique, interesting, admirable human beings- in my opinion ❤️ He’s a bad ass 🫶🏼 I love his steelo 💯 I’m a huge RCHP fan 💯❤️🙏🏼 Anthony Kiedis…..Still takes my breath away 😼 Much love from Cali, SD 💯🙌🏼🇲🇽
I love that album, John. Altho there's nothing you've done that I haven't appreciated, at least in some way. But all ur solo albums remain enjoyably digestible, listenable and diverse. All ur albums have distinct moods and associations that are very personal to me and have often facilitated emotional healing and awareness. Thanx for bucking the status quo and in being a Tru musician, have made music and sounds scapes that transcend the norm and evoke other dimensions beyond human consciousness and certainly popular musical and artistic culture... Love you, John! Eagerly anticipating the upcoming RHCP album... PS love Anthony, flea and Chad, too!
Ive tried so hard to like this album. As a statement of intent & emotion its incredible ..... but Its SO personal, raw & painful I just cant relate to it. But yes ..... JF is clearly next level genius
this is a tough album to listen to. it sounds like someone i care about losing their mind. the singing/screaming, in particular, is the tough part to listen to.
I think john and flea make rhcp. Without them, it sucks. John has always been my fave. He's such a relatable, real, raw, authentic PERSON and grade A musician. My favorite guitarist ever.
11millon dollars worth of drugs will do this to you Syd Barratt was the same but he didn't go outside after the Floyd he was depleted by fame and the pressure of it all to creative and drugs is a bad mix
We all leave eventually like castles made of sand, slips into the sea eventually. I doubt you'd be listening to them had hillel never left to go to the afterlife.

Thank You Very Much!!! 😁
where is this interview from?
Thank you verry much Fred!!!)))
I love listening to that stuff too. Niandra LaDes is the most raw album ever to me. So unique and beautiful and chaotic.
Smile´s from the streets is rawer but still god, but Niandra es her best album
Best jf album
Yes definitely, listen to modest mouse's first cassettes they are alot like lades
It's an absolute piece of art. I can't listen to it except in its full form.
I have always been a huge RHCP and Frusciante fan. I cannot remember him ever sounding this good, clear-minded, and healthy. It makes me so happy and excited for the future of music.

stay strong bro

I always felt a "Syd vibe" in Niandra Lades
Its crazy how their paths were similar in one way or another
Thankfully John is still here
100% I always felt that too
so glad my name is niandra thanks to my mom, biggest fan of RCHP. She wasn't so in touch with the album itself but I am completely in love with niandra laDes, I feel like I understand every lyric and melody. I love this connection.

If you liked Niandra, you'll like my album Anne, would you like to listen?
Listening my smile is a rifle for the first time changed my approach to music forever, and i will never forget it.
I've been using this technique for years XD
He sounds so much clearer now, I’ve never heard him like this and I love it
''Weird for the sake of weird''
He's a genius.. probably the greatest musician of this modern generation
John is one of the greatest minds in modern music.
Don’t have to add modern. One of the best ever
@@mediumsame This is a very important clarification))
I have nothing to add to that
All of his albums are incredibly different from each other. But listening to them, you always absolutely understand that the same person did them.
@@12xenn45 When I listen to this album I think John has no skin. All senses are strongly naked.

Yeah. Very focused. His mind seams healed
He sounds so coherent and clear minded now. Its incredible! I wonder if it will affect how the music turns out
Love John so much.. he is an awesome human being. Sometimes the greatest minds are also the most tortured & mysterious. I hope your still doing well, John.
I could literally just listen to him talk about his music (or even just music itself on the whole & in general) FOREVERRRRRR
Niandra LaDes And Usually Just A T-Shirt is the Most underrated Folk Album of All Time
I don’t think it’s quite folk; sorta Avant Garde-ish

@@brandonterzic Its interesting. It could purely be accidental or a fluke. Only ever happened a few times.
@@keiranj5149 welcome to the first ruptures of satori. ;)
One of my favorite albums of all time!! my life is basically like life before niandra lades and life after
I've been insane where the time is slooooooooow.. I've been in pain hope it doesn't shoooooow.... Masterpiece 100%
Haven't listened to this album in 10 years, i remember the last time i listened to some of the songs the screams made my blood freeze.

Nicely said Mr Frusciante, looking forward to the new Chilli's album man. I feel Magick in the air and deep roots a rumbling.
I now finally know how to properly pronounce Niandra LaDes 😅
I know right!🤣
@@victoriaseawatch5407 I had it so wrong for a few decades haha 🤣🤣
Thank you for sharing this, a gem of an interview clip.
Many people say that its "too loud" or "annoying" and "gibberish", but this is probably my favorite album
If you liked Niandra, you'll like my album Anne
I agree
Case in point- Mellow Gold.
It was never bad. Even in the performative stages of recording. His voice was an instrument. And Smile From The Streets You Hold... 🥵🥵🥵
Most favorite guitarist ❤️ inspired me for a new romance between my fingers and guitar lol. Most incredible soul. Wish to hug him one day, even though he doesn’t like any kind of contact with strangers

Totally can relate. I always surprised myself when I was able to get in the mind space of just writing the worst shit ever, it gets me loose!

I'm just glad he got clean and made some of the most memorable songs of all time. If anything, this album is a direct insight into the haunting tribulations of substance abuse.
technically he recorded Niadra Lades before he got addicted to heroin, it was assembled and mixed/mastered during that period tho.
If you liked Niandra, i think you'll like my album Anne

such a good album and I'm happy he's healthy now
So now I know how it's pronounced
My favourite record ever. Nothing ever came close!
His voice sounds so much better and clear compared to old interviews in the past when it seemed like he would be mumbling.
I love that album, John. Altho there's nothing you've done that I haven't appreciated, at least in some way. But all ur solo albums remain enjoyably digestible, listenable and diverse.

i love every single of john's albums
I love niandrales.
Very talented artist. He feels the music and plays with emotion. Love the cheech and chong t shirt
The best quitar of the new era
Ive tried so hard to like this album. As a statement of intent & emotion its incredible ..... but Its SO personal, raw & painful I just cant relate to it. But yes ..... JF is clearly next level genius
Courage to change the things we can.
Thats why this guy is a fucking inspiration
Yeah baby. Nice.
classic John! 💜💜💜best advice ever 🙏
I always thought it was niandra LaDes pronunciation was "laids" haha
wow greatly said John
Sometimes if you sit on an album overhyping it for over a year, it flops.
Let's hope it won't be the case for the next Chili Peppers release 😩
Such good advice
Daniel Johnston
He mentioned Syd Barret ❤❤❤❤ i love them both John and Syd
I could hear him the whole day lmao
this is a tough album to listen to. it sounds like someone i care about losing their mind. the singing/screaming, in particular, is the tough part to listen to.
And now we know how to pronounce Niandra LaDes.
"NIANDRA" is the greatest album ever.
John is so introspective. I feel like I could talk to him for hours if given the chance :)
I could listen to him talk for hours
Love John!!!
When you’re so skilled that even when you try to make something sound bad it still sounds good lol
If you liked Niandra, i think you'll like my album Anne
Artist gotta art y'knoe
Running away into yo- running awayyy in- running awaayy
He sounds like a fresh john
This was his shadow self era there were feelings inside he had to attend to.

Sure..! Check&Ching nice T-shirt,too!*Peppers
