oohh

You end your review comparing The Empyrean; an album, with Your Pussy's Glued to a Building on Fire; a song off John's first solo album called, Niandra Lades- that just doesn't make sense.

what about your pussy's glued to a building on fire being an awesome song?

Just because "Your Pussy's" doesn't conform to the norms of the generic verse-chorus-verse song and isn't perfectly produced doesn't mean it's not an awesome, emotional and trippy/incredible/messed up musical experience. John is a musical genius and I can appreciate everything that he gives to us as music fans.

Absolutely incredible music on The Empyrean... If you love John's music with your soul, you'll love this record.

err, to the reviewer above, "Your Pussy Is Glued to a Building on Fire" is among John's best works. Sound quality is not equivalent to artistic quality. Personally I don't like the Empyrean (yes it's leaked) as much as John's other stuff, but a few tracks (parts of tracks at times) are pretty good.

Terrible synopsis by this Travis Woods guy.

Anyways, this album is unbelievable. All of John's work is incredible, but The Empyrean takes you to a whole new dimension of music. Its unlike anything I've ever heard before, and I'm pretty confident that its unlike anything I ever will here. A truly remarkable piece of work.

This album grows on you. It seems somehow less approachable than other albums in the solo john frusciante context as he seems to have broadened his musical language. Really grows on you, don't miss it.

this guy must be the most stupid motherfu**er on earth. i bet he thinks bands like metalica guns and roses are the dogs bollocks. john could do more for music in his sleep than most band could do in 10 lifetimes.

this guy Travis should be fired.

There's no such thing as a bad song - just a song that you can't understand and doesn't push your buttons. Personally, Frusciante has done it for me everytime, from the extremes of 'I May Again Know John', which my girlfriend hates me playing, to the mellow mood of 'A Firm Kick'. For the record, all this talk about 'Your Pussys Glued To A Building On Fire' - the guy who wrote this review has a point that this album will appeal to more people due to the nature of the songs. But what a jerk for stating it's

a tool indeed. cause someones got the individuality to sing whatever the fu ck he wants to, unlike this guy who obviously browsed Wikipedia and his shi_ t memory.

i looked on here for a preview and the bloke that wrote this clearly has no real idea what that is - how about some info on the sound of the album or the concept, surely the zero depth of knowledge you have about frusicante could be diguised just by posting a link to amazon, they have far better previews and theyve barely got anything. travis woods is a joke.

I just heard the record for the first time and I was really disapointed. I reminds me of American Idol at times and I don't like that show. Sorry John but if you cant make the time to tune your guitar then you shouldnt be making records. (3 songs are out of tune, serious...)

The text above is for the abstrac and not the review.

This is not a review, it's a

yeah um... NLDAUJATS was an album that john made when off his head on smack and in a completely different dimension. i find it hard to compare any of his other work to that album... though it is my fav. ha

john if you read this stuff i would be suprised that you waist your precious time that you could be creating more pure perfection. you should know though you are a musical genuis with a great prspective on god and what his love is truley all about. another thing for blogger martin if you were a real musician you would understand that there is no such thing as a out of tune guitar.

to 'vlademir osakavich'.... niandra lades is not $hit at all. the sound quality is nowhere near as good as more modern albums, but its still good soulful music. and to the guy who wrote the review.... i dont think youve heeard much of his other music have you? and according to you the chilis last good album was by the way? haha since then theyve written 28 other songs including dani california and many more fabulous songs and you just dismiss them? shame on you. find a new job.

Why is it that so many reviews that I have found are saying that his solo work is all so "un-even" and that they are always approached with trepidation? I personally think that Mr. Frusciante gives us so much more than what the average singer songwriter these days is capable of; true art at its best. This album is fantastic. All his others were fantastic too.

I don't even need to mention what is wrong with his closing line. This guy obviously was smoking some bad granola when he was reviewing this album.

Terrible review given by someone who is innaccurate in their assumptions about John Frusciante and the RHCP's work. It is likely a lack of understanding of music and art that leads the critic to make poor assumptions. I feel that he is one of the industries strongest guitarists as well as a profound artist with imense creativity. Additionally, how can anyone overlook Stadium Archadium as not being a great album? Doesn't make any sense to me.

I like this album. But....... the first track is obviously an excuse for

Reviewers hate songs that don't have the cliche order of every pop song nowadays. They also love to compare solo works to the musician's original band. Not cool. They should always be reviewed seperately, they are two SEPERATE artists. His album is beautiful. Buy it, listen to it, enjoy it.
