        A decent album to be sure but this album began the downhill slide IMHO. Anything before this album is more hungry and creative than anything that was released after it. This was the turning point. For my money, RHCP died in 1991. Thank goodness I still have much of the early releases. If you want the REAL RHCP, go find any release prior this album.

        I daresay this the recording in which RHCP first concocted the formula for all their subsequent releases. Why not choose the original? If you came into the band later in their career, don't miss this one.

        Not sure who is underrating this album, but whoever it is must be deaf. I can't imagine anyone wouldn't own this by now, but in the rare case you don't have it, 12 credits is a steal.

        They Say All Music Guide

        The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ best album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik benefits immensely from Rick Rubin’s production — John Frusciante’s guitar is less overpoweringly noisy, leaving room for differing textures and clearer lines, while the band overall is more focused and less indulgent, even if some of the grooves drag on too long. Lyrically, Anthony Kiedis is as preoccupied with sex as ever, whether invoking it as his muse, begging for it, or boasting in great detail about his prowess, best showcased on the infectiously funky singles “Give It Away” and “Suck My Kiss.” However, he tempers his testosterone with a more sensitive side, writing about the emotional side of failed relationships (“Breaking the Girl,” “I Could Have Lied”), his drug addictions (“Under the Bridge” and an elegy for Hillel Slovak, “My Lovely Man”), and some hippie-ish calls for a peaceful utopia. Three of those last four songs (excluding “My Lovely Man”) mark the band’s first consistent embrace of lilting acoustic balladry, and while it’s not what Kiedis does best as a vocalist, these are some of the album’s finest moments, varying and expanding the group’s musical and emotional range. Frusciante departed after the supporting tour, leaving Blood Sugar Sex Magik as probably the best album the Chili Peppers will ever make. – Steve Huey
