Official: John Frusciante quits the Chili Peppers

Following reports earlier this week, Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist John Frusciante has confirmed that he has left the band in order to concentrate on his solo career.

“When I quit the band, over a year ago, we were on an indefinite hiatus,” says John in an official statement. “There was no drama or anger involved. They are supportive of my doing whatever makes me happy and that goes both ways.

“I really love the band and what we did,” he continues. “I understand and value that my work with them means a lot to many people, but I have to follow my interests. For me, art has never been something done out of a sense of duty. It is something I do because it is really fun, exciting, and interesting. Over the last 12 years, I have changed, as a person and artist, to such a degree that to do further work along the lines I did with the band would be to go against my own nature. There was no choice involved in this decision. I simply have to be what I am, and have to do what I must do.”

John left the band once before in 1992 – the then 22-year-old guitarist quit the band on May 8 following a show at Tokyo’s Club Quattro, citing that he couldn’t handle the Hollywood foursome’s rise to fame following the release of their 1991 breakout album Blood Sugar Sex Magik. He rejoined the group in 1998 to record the band’s seventh album Californication following a lengthy addiction to drugs.

I am afraid that I can't really find the necessary energy to be bothered to respond to this news.

:8ball:

Chili peppers will prolly carry on with someone else again. Meh though, on the whole. I've never actually heard any of his solo stuff. Doubt any of it's as good as this though:

The solo stuff is ok.

They'll go through about 50 different guitarist again and then realise that they need Frusciante back again.

Yeh, it'll be like One Hot Minute again.

Fair play to Frusciante though, I always thought he was bit too clever and classy for the Peppers, who are just a bit annoying

RHCP without Frusciante means nothing
