I feel as though the beats and music carried this album despite the weak lyrics that depended on fluff. Most of the songs contain lines that don’t mean anything to anybody, you know, dance dance, thank you to our fans, I love this faceless girl. I guess the song I feel obligated to bring up is “Face Down” only because it does try to say something. The message of the song being: Don’t beat up girls. . .is that really where they want to take their stand? Not very tough if you ask me, and not very original either. I mean I do appreciate the effort, but anybody can stand on their soapbox and proclaim their manliness with that message without any fear of blowback. It does leave you wondering if the fans of Red Jumpsuit Apparatus feel that righteous or if it is just the bands idea of safe political speech. Platitudes aside however, it is a good song that I would love to dance to if I ever actually danced. At times they seem to stumble into power ballad territory, but that is a territory that I am fond of. They also seem to be genuine fans of the hook, but if that is what it took to get them on the radio then I am sure that they saw it as worth the sacrifice.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have become as reliable as U2 and REM in the past two decades. Like the other two bands, TRHCP have straddled the fine line of making broadly appealing music without exactly losing their souls to corporations. Yes, “By The Way” sounds like their most commercial cd to date, but as fans we have their first four cds that were not commercial to reflect on. I don’t think the band is completely commercial anyway, and I don’t they could be. I mean, my father wouldn’t buy “By The Way”. Instead, the band is attracting new, younger listeners while keeping many of the old fans. With that said, “By The Way” is a solid recording with the band’s usual range of offerings from “By The Way”, “Universally Speaking”, “The Zephyr Song”, “Cabron” and the rest of the 12 other tracks. The cd holds together very well, staying consistent throughout. Some might say this is a continuation from “Californication” and they’d be right. “By The Way” has the same lush feeling, the same maturity and growth in song structure and lyrics. The band is at the beginning of greatness I believe, with many more cds ahead that in years to come will be as classic as any U2 or REM cd.
