RHCP working on new album

Anthony Kiedis, frontman of Red Hot Chili Peppers, says the rock band's latest material is as good as anything they've ever done. He also hinted that he has acoustic ideas on his mind as the band concentrate on their 11th studio title.

The follow-up to 2011's “I'm With You” has been in the works for several months, and it's expected to appear in the first half of 2016.

Kiedis told Rolling Stone: “We've been writing new music for the last year and we've written some songs that I feel are as good as any songs we've ever written.”

“I love to play acoustic, whether we're talking about 'By The Way' or an old song like 'Me And My Friends',” said the singer. “These very aggressive, loud, chaotic electric songs work rather nicely on quiet instruments.

 “We rehearsed and played everything acoustically from 'Fire' by Jimi Hendrix, to trying to figure out if 'Californication' works on acoustic – which it did.”
