Red Hot Chili Peppers “Almost Done” With New Album
Red Hot Chili Peppers have a new album on the way. Speaking to “Rolling Stone,” drummer Chad Smith says they’re “almost done” recording their first new album with guitarist John Frusciante since 2006.
“We’re getting along great. John’s been back for a while now, so it feels completely natural,” Smith adds. “We’re really listening to each other in a new way. It sounds like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but it’s different and new.”
So far, that’s all the details we have on the record. We also know they plan on releasing it sometime before they launch their United States stadium tour next June.

Fender Reissuing Kurt Cobain's Custom Guitar
Fender is celebrating the 30th anniversary of Nirvana’s landmark album “Nevermind” by reissuing his custom Jag-Stang guitar. The late frontman created the guitar by mixing the Fender Jaguar and Mustang, saying he could “never find the perfect mix” he was looking for until then.
Fender recreated the Jag-Stang from sketches Kurt used to design his modified guitar. It’s available in Fiesta Red and Sonic Blue and comes complete with a stunning rosewood fingerboard. Check it out HERE.
“We honored the original model,” says Fender honncho Justin Norvell. “All the specs on the new Jag-Stang are as they were. Nothing new was done to it, we really wanted to keep it aligned with Kurt’s vision.”

Nikki Sixx Says Motley Crue Was "Most Probably" a Sexist Band in the '80s
NIKKI SIXX dropped a HUGE bombshell yesterday . . . admitting that MOTLEY CRUE was "most probably" a sexist band back in the '80s. (???)
But he says all the bands were doing it, and he blamed the previous generation . . . quote, "In the '70s, when I grew up, it was just the messaging that came through, and you were emulating your heroes . . .
"When someone is talking about guns and sex and drugs, you're like, 'This is [effing] dangerous, man. This is not mom and dad's music.' So it was a different time. You can't rewrite history, man."
Nikki did clarify that he's a different person than he was back then.
He said, quote, "I'm really looking at somewhere between 25 to 30 years of not sticking needles in and drinking alcohol and taking pills and stuff . . . I actually lead a pretty clean lifestyle."
