It's in thier, it's just not as exclusive as it was before. You have to understand, they aren't 20-year-old kids anymore. They in thier fourties and as they mature, so does thier music. I totally enjoy rocking out with the old-skool Peppers as much as anybody, but thier new music defiantly holds it's own. I don't think you're giving it a good enough chance. Check out Storm in a Teacup if you want to rock out. Seriously, I love that song.
