[Anonymous]Aug 25, 2009It's always sad when one of our heroes fails. Maybe one good song on the whole thing. Never thought JF would be capable of this. I think he's just getting too comfortable in his life.

Frusciante has done a nice job of carving an identity completely separate from his main gig, and Empyrean fits nicely with his other solo albums.
-
John Frusciante has carved out a parallel world as a solo artist over a series of intensely personal and brilliantly realised albums. His 10th, The Empyrean, is his most ambitious to date.

While this album may mirror some type of personal imaginative journey for the listener, the truth is it is just too dreary and self-indulgent to endure in its entirety.
