Released July 26
Red Hot Chili Peppers released their seventh studio album, Californication. The album was produced by Rick Rubin and marked the return of guitarist John Frusciante - his first recording with the band since the 1991 album Blood Sugar Sex Magik.
Californication has since become the band's best-selling album, driven by the success of three hit singles: "Scar Tissue", "Otherside", and "Californication". The album has sold over 15 million copies globally, and is a multi-platinum record in the UK.
To mark the 25th anniversary of this landmark album, a limited edition double vinyl is being released - with one LP pressed on red vinyl and one LP on ocean blue vinyl.
