Editorial Review:
At the time of its release, One Hot Minute was viewed as the beginning of a new direction for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Guitarist John Frusciante had departed and former Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro joined the ranks after some false starts with short-lived replacements. Band chemistry here isn't quite up to past standards. Navarro stretches out throughout the album, imbuing tunes with a heavy dose of hard rock and psychedelia and providing a stark contrast from Frusciante's dexterous noodling. Tracks such as "Warped" and "Aeroplane" display a band prone to exploring a less frenetic hard rock, while "Shallow Be Thy Game" sounds like the old band. Frusciante eventually returned to the fold, so this 1995 collection now stands as a curious intermission for the Peppers. --Rob O'Connor

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - The Best RHCP Album
I really don't care much for the people behind the music, but the music itself.
Looking at it that way, this is probably the best of the Chili Peppers catalog. It's a wonderful, fluid, albeit slightly chaotic mix of funk, metal, jazz, progressive, psychedelia, gothic, and punk, filled with thick grooves from Flea, textured guitar from Navarro, powerful drumming from Smith, and suave to aggressive vocals from Kiedis.
A true, bold experimental record, and the epicenter of ... Read More
Rating: - i will give it 5 just for the fact it only has a 4 star rating.
I think this is a great album.not there best but there most rocking!so i give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.the only song i cant stand is pea,why bother putting a song like that on an album?I say this album is half rock and half funk.
Rating:  - Painful struggle within the members in RHCP!
One Hot Minute is a disc I really wanted to like. The collection is diverse and at times exciting. Also, I wanted to see how Dave Navarro would fit into the RHCP style. Unfortunately the whole package is uneven, sometimes underdone, and forced. There was obvious tension between Dave and the rest of the Chili Peppers. It took them over a year to record this mess of an album. One Hot Minute still has some very compelling material to make it at least worth owning. Warped kicks it off in a more Jane's ... Read More
Rating: - Underrated? Yes.
One Hot Minute is a radically different CD form the preceding (Blood Sugar Sex Magik) and succeeding (Californication) Red Hot Chili Peppers CDs. It's just as incredible. I don't understand all the backlash.
The Guitar work may not be as good as John Frusciante, but the CD as a whole works, and it works quite well actually.
Songs like Warped, Aeroplane, My Friends, and Coffee Shop are legendary. But songs like Walkabout, Tearjerker, Shallow Be Thy Game, and Transcending ... Read More
Rating:  - "Pleasure spiked with pain..."
The year was 1994, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers were on their way to world domination. 1991's Blood Sugar Sex Magik had just catapulted the group into public attention, boasting four smash hits (Give it Away; Under the Bridge; Breaking the Girl; Suck My Kiss), and a wealth of solid album tracks (If You Have to Ask; Funky Monks; I Could Have Lied; Mellowship Slinky in B Major; My Lovely Man; the hilariously tasteless Sir Psycho Sexy). And John Frusciante was proving himself among the most talented guitar ... Read More
