Jan 25, 2022Really one of the best RHCP's album. Stadium Arcadium made me want to learn the guitar, and the getaway made me continue my progression ! just hoping that Frusciante's come back album will be as good as this one
-
Apr 15, 2021The band's most ambitious album, that perfectly captures a similar energy to that of the band's live performances, as well as their eclectic nature. Truly, a masterwork.

Mar 8, 2020I can thank my thesis to this album, I was listening to these tracks back the way when I wrote it. RHCP simply one of the best bands nowadays.

Nov 3, 2019Best RHCP album. Solid. Funky. Senseful. Dancelicious. Only true fans know this and it is obvious why...
-
Oct 12, 2018Idk, it's okay. Most of the tracks are fine but some are just boring. There are some good highlights though like the opening Snow (Hey Oh) and Dani California. This is the only RHCP album I've heard so far so idk if they have any better ones
-
Oct 3, 2017I love both Mars and Jupiter. RHCP is always creative in the compositions, however this album evidences this in a very special way that changed my life.
-
Mar 26, 2017I can imagine that the release of a 28-song album would've got Red Hot Chili Peppers fans absolutely hyped. Despite there being so many songs, the album is surprisingly consistent. Very impressive as a whole!

Aug 20, 2016This is the album that got me into rock music and to playing guitar! The guitar is incredible here as well as the song writing . The songs that standout to me were Readymade, Snow, Wet Sand, Turn it Again, Dani California and Torture Me. Not a single song I didn't enjoy!

Sep 29, 2014Stadium Arcadium is the Red Hot Chili Peppers essence, snatching everything with critical, sexual and descriptive lycris from our lovely California, the funky lords, the funky legends, the funky heroes, Red Hot Chili Peppers just won me, again, masterpiece album.
-
Sep 25, 2014Superb from Dani California to Hey, Stadium Arcadium is one of the (if no the) best album that RHCP ever made, with creative lyrics combined with a great funky rhythm, Stadium Arcadium is an easy 9/10 album.

Dec 30, 201328 Tracks, they got the quality and the quantity. I like the album because every one ine the band is in a good situation, no hard drugs or other. And I felt that because of that the produced an album of great quality.

Nov 15, 2013One of the greatest displays of guitar work ever. To me, the lyrics are way underrated and the long album is just what the Chilis needed. A great album for John to leave on.
-
Jul 15, 2013An underrated album for sure. Although not every song on the album is perfect (or at all good), it makes up for it with amazing and memorable songs which are sure to become some of your favourites.

Oct 21, 2012It's psychedelic, bass-slappin' magic on "Arcadium", a Chili Peppers album that highlights the band's instrumental talents, but unfortunately also highlights Kiedis' degrading skills as a lyricist.
-
Aug 7, 2012I don't care what anyone says, I hail this album as the best album of all time. It has so many songs on it and they all are great. Usually albums have 15-18 songs and 2,3 maybe 4 are good. Stadium Arcadium has 28 songs and they all are great.
-
May 20, 2012Stadium arcadium is an awesome album, it's the best red hot chili peppers album ever! The first disk is probably better than the second disk. Disk 1: 11/10. Disk 2: 10/10. Overall as an album: 10/10. If you like red hot chili peppers, either get this album or listen to it!
-
Apr 11, 2012If you took the best 12 or 13 songs from this sprawling double record, you'd still have a pretty dull, funk rock affair. There are half a dozen good songs, another half dozen average songs and over a dozen tracks that just act as filler. That's way too much filler by anyone's standards. Dani California is very good but very little to like apart from that.
-
Mar 31, 2012Stadium Arcadium is a musical triumph for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. it's their most creative album they've ever put out. Each track stands out. It's their best album to date and they probably will never make an album better than it. A
-
Mar 15, 2012Their best album up to date. A total masterpiece. It will be really hard for them to make another disc as good as this one. This is the reason i fell in love with RHCP
-
Feb 14, 2012I love the whole album, but the thing is, I love almost every other Red Hot Chili Peppers album more than this one. My go to songs are She's Only 18 and Wet Sand!

Apr 21, 2011Honestly, this is probably my favorite album of all time, coming from one of my favorite bands of all time.
Almost every song of the 28 is an instant classic to me.

Stadium Arcadium ensures that graying Lollapalooza-era fans, indie teens, and rowdy lunkheads will all be satisfied.
-
Somewhere along the line the Chilis got sophisticated on our asses.
-
Frusciante's guitar work... almost single-handedly saves the project, but not quite.
