Red Hot Chili Peppers Announce LSD-Inspired New Album Title

While the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ muses typically consist of sex, sex, sex, heroin, sex, California, sex, California, and sex, the band decided to break their self-imposed mode by including LSD as an influence on their new album, Dr Johnny Skinz’s Disproportionately Rambunctious Polar Express Machine-head.

That title isn’t a joke, by the way.

According to Spinner:

“It’s been five years since the release of the sprawling epic that was ‘Stadium Arcadium’ and Red Hot Chili Peppers are set to return with their 10th album and, according to frontman Anthony Kiedis, the band have named the new collection after a friend’s experience with LSD.

“’He [the friend] was reminiscing about one of his legendary acid trips,’ Kiedis said, ‘and told us that he had been playing a sold-out show to the planets and moons, and his No. 1 hit was, well, that title.’

“Kieidis was quick to point out that the name might not stick beyond the recording process. He added, ‘We found it so funny that we told him for as long as the album was under the radar, that that would be our nickname for it.’”

Well, I guess it’s better calling an album The Uplift Mofo Part—wait.

What do you think of the new Chili Peppers’ album title?
