New from the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Danger Mouse – The Getaway

It’s not really a secret that I love music producer Danger Mouse, and his band the Broken Bells is one of my very favorites. I make a habit of checking his Wikipedia page on occasion, watching his discography to see what he’s been working on. That’s how I knew he’d been working with U2 – before that U2 album ended up dropped (for free) on everyone with an iTunes account… It’s also how I knew he’d been working with the Red Hot Chili Peppers on their new album.

Said album is out now! It’s been 5 years since their last album, so I imagine there’s a lot of their fans who are a lot more excited about their return than about the Danger Mouse aspect… I love the Red Hot Chili Peppers in singles form, at least, but I rarely seem to make it through a full album listening. So I had trepidations going into this…
