In “Black Summer,” the new Red Hot Chili Peppers song.
Okay, so, let’s start with the main news: The Red Hot Chili Peppers are back with their first song with guitarist John Frusciante in 16 years, and “Black Summer” is everything you’d want with a Chilis joint — ethereal riffs noodling along, wonderfully nonsensical lyrics, and a music video that has Anthony Kiedis disrobing at the midway point.
But … uh. A few thoughts on the vocals. Kiedis’s voice in “Black Summer” has an accent that can perhaps be best described as part leprechaun-Irish, part pirate, and part ShantyTok. As our headline stresses, it’s hot and confusing. We’ve now listened to him enunciate “the archers on the run” a dozen times and still don’t fully understand the vibe he’s going for.
