Red Hot Chili Peppers

In July 2016, when the Red Hot Chili Peppers took the stage in Budapest, they were riding high on the wave of their latest album, "The Getaway," which had dropped just a month earlier. It marked a significant point in their career, showcasing their evolution. This was their 11th studio album and introduced the band’s new producer, Danger Mouse, a shift that brought fresh sounds to their signature funk-rock style. "The Getaway" blended catchy hooks with introspective lyrics, cementing their relevance in a changing musical landscape. This live recording of "We Turn Red" captures the energy of a band that embraces both its storied past and an exciting present. Interestingly, this performance aligns with a resurgence that followed a period of fluctuating critical and commercial reception, reminding fans why the Chili Peppers remain a predominant force in music. Plus, how cool is it that this specific show features soundboard audio, giving listeners that rich, immersive experience? It's like being right there in the crowd, feeling the pulse of their iconic sounds!
