I was 16 when it was released and bopped to Give It Away down my local indie disco.
I like Under The Bridge a lot even though I have seriously overheard it. But, as Anthony Keidis said even Mums like that song. Or Grannies, as they'll be now.
I was thinking earlier that maybe I just don't like RHCP because theirs is a style or subgenre or whatever that just doesn't do it for me, but then I remembered that Rage were able to synthesise hard rock and punk with funk flourishes and shouty rap-influenced vocals without sounding like a bunch of stoner-jock lamewads enjoying the smell of their own farts, so I think it has less to do with their weapon of choice and more to do with them coming across as choice weapons. _________________ 2021 in full effect. Come drop me some recs. Y'all know what I like.

I think a factor of it was them getting off drugs before this album. Those 80s RHCP albums are a lot of fun and IMO less annoying.
