in
By Dan "The Mouth" Lovranski (CHARTattack) December 7, 2004 11:35 am

Anthony Keidis, your frontman duties are NOT threatened in the least by your guitarist John. Not only is his pitch and range less than stellar, but, well, he's not the nicest looking guy in the world. Still, you'd better keep him kicking around the band because this guy's got a lot to offer. One thinks whether Californication would've been as big...
