    The Red Hot Chili Peppers have the number one album in the country:

    Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Unlimited Love leaps onto the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated April 16) at No. 1, marking the band’s second leader and first chart-topping effort since 2006’s Stadium Arcadium. The new set was released on April 1 and bows with 97,500 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending April 7, according to Luminate, formerly MRC Data. In total, the group has tallied eight top 10 albums on the Billboard 200.

    RHCP are the new goats for unseating MGK.

  4. too bad Kiedis is a pedo and openly bragged about it in his book

    that's the one thing RHCP and MGK have in common I guess

    I've been waiting for someone to ask him about this as I imagine the band's publicist explicitly forbid journalists from going there. Looks like a writer from The Guardian tried and following happened:

    Red Hot Chili Peppers: ‘People misbehave and make mistakes. They don’t know better’

    "
    He has thought twice about some of Scar Tissue now, surely? “I had low-level regret the minute the very first person ever read that book,” says Kiedis. “But as time went by, my regrets disappeared into realising that the book did something much better than I ever intended for it to do. In the end, the stories were not the important thing, as much as this thematic notion that one could be at death’s door, and somehow survive.” He would receive messages from people in rehab and prison saying: “‘Your book kept me company and it made me realise that it could change my life.’ That’s a much better reason to have written the book.”


    I say I was thinking more specifically about the Catholic School Girls Rule passage, but before I’ve got a chance to ask whether he has reflected on what he wrote, Kiedis shoots back: “I don’t know what you’re searching for with that one. But it doesn’t seem like any good can come out of discussing that.” Then the line goes dead. "
