Frushant John Biography

The glory and return of John Frushant from 50 years of his life was already a little more in the music industry and managed to do everything in general: to stay on the top of the world as part of Red Hot Chili Peppers, almost losing his life from severe drug addiction, work in many genres from avant-garde and hip-hop, completely hide. From the world and fans, degenerate and release over 20 records, not counting collaborations and guest performances.

His ambiguity both in behavior and in musical methods attracts a huge number of people. At the same time, Frushant is not another distraught creator, writing backward improvisation on one torn string backward: most of its material is available and understandable to almost any music lover, while remaining eccentric, deep and in a good strange way. In addition, over the years of the game, Frushant has developed his own unique play style, for which he got into the top of the best guitarists of the world according to the version of the Rolling Stone.

To understand the difficult, but incredibly fascinating and exciting world of music, Frushante, we must remember - at least a briefly - the key stages of his path. Childhood and the first cargo in the Red Hot Chili Peppers when Frushante, as a green teenager, first saw the live performance of Red Hot Chili Peppers in the middle of X, he immediately became their fan. Largely thanks to the foolish spanked manner of the game of the guitarist Hilllla Slovak.

From childhood, who had grown up in the family of the singer and pianist, Frushant from childhood, played the loser in all sorts of punk groups of Los Angeles at nine years old, and then set to study the technique of Jeff Bek, Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix and other rock-bogs x. Therefore, the game of Slovak struck him. He began to copy it. A little later, he made friends with the bassist of Pepperis Flei and found out that he was just in the trash before each show, but managed to give out a first -class show.

From him, John found out that the Slovak and at the same time vocalist Anthony Kidis - Torchka. A strong heroin addiction led to his death in the year and the followed by Frushant to RHCP then included the drummer Chad Smith, who still plays. But the young guitarist could be in the group of his idol Frank Zapa! But Zap was categorically against the harmful addictions of all participants in his group, and John, in his own words, “wanted rock life, take drugs and stare of the heifers”.

He tasted this life in full. In the year of the musical business, Rick Rubin asks Frushant to significantly change his manner of playing the guitar and make it dirty, loud and aggressive. Thanks to this, the Red Hot Chili Peppers invent their sound again, release the Bloodsugarsmagik breakthrough album and become one of the main rock groups on the Nirvana album on the Nairvana album, which is noteworthy, came out with the “peppers” disk a little later.

It would seem that Frushant's dream came true tenfold. But in fact, the popularity of the group more and more repelled him from creativity: in his opinion, everything happened too quickly. The rest of the participants, who were eight years older than Frushant, were more or less ready for the surging popularity, but the twenty-one-year-old John was not. Therefore, he left the group and locked himself in his house for five years.

The death and rebirth of what John Frushant did in his house on Hollywood hills for five years, there is no detailed information - no one is particularly subject to this period. But it is known for certain that the schedule of the day included a stay in deep depression, writing unpublished scenarios and stories, communication with spirits, drawing abstract paintings and taking a huge amount of heroin, cocaine and Crac.

For five years of drug addiction, Frushant has turned into a walking zombie covered with purulent ulcers from constant injections with the same syringes, with rotten teeth from Crak, with a glass look and inability to express their thoughts. John’s condition in the year was a miracle documented in one interview, on which you can hardly see a person. Hands are constantly shaking, the voice does not obey, some chaotic scribbles are visible in the “Notepad”.

We warn, this is not for impressionable. There is another documented evidence of the destructive lifestyle of Frushante. In the year, friends of Johnny Depp and Gibby Heinns vocalist Butthole Surfer came to visit him and photographed the conditions in which the musician lived on the cameras. The output turned out to be a twenty -minute film Stuff, which is as difficult as the previous interview.

By the way, this very house a couple of years in a couple of years, taking away all the property of Frushant with him, but not his life - he with difficulty, but managed to leave the building before it completely turned into ashes. As a result, by the end of the year, Frushant was diagnosed with a potentially fatal rotary infection, for the treatment of which it was necessary to replace all rotten and dropped teeth.Having gathered with the last forces, John decides to go to a rehabilitation clinic to recover from addiction and make a transplant of the skin in his hands.

The idea turns into success, and soon Frushant leaves the clinic healthy - and with a completely new worldview. He completely refuses drugs and alcohol, begins to engage in yoga later, however, he stops due to back pain, and also refuses sex. It is noteworthy that the musician himself does not call this period of his life “dark”, and even glad - without him this “rebirth” would not be.

By the year, the group was on the verge of decay, but after they learned about the recovery of Frushant, they immediately invited him back and recorded the megouse disk Californication. Producer Rick Rubin again provided Frushant with complete creative freedom, which will play a large service specifically Red Hot Chili Peppers up to a year and the release of the double album Stadium Arcadium.

John himself calls the period with the most fruitful in his career, not forgetting to give evidence. 6 six come out in the year! And when the “peppers” decide to go on an unlimited vacation in the year, Frushanta leaves the group again, and this will be known only in two years. No disagreements, quarrels or deeds of fame. Just another period in a life that was supposed to end.

In the work of Frushant starts in the work of Frushant - it almost completely disappears from the field of view of fans and the press, preferring to communion with the world exclusively with the help of music, and releases its best conceptual album The Empyrean. After this work, which at the same time as a biography, and preaching, and the manifesto, Frushant decides to make his old dream to make electronic music.

He said that he had lost interest in the “traditional writing” of songs, because the physical interaction of the musician’s hands and his instrument is a strong limiter on the path of music from his head to film. Then Frushant produced and pancakeramed half the Black Knights hip-hoop album, and also joined the Kimono Kult supergroup with the former guitarist The Mars Volta and a longtime Omar Rodriguez-Lopez.

He was not a member of the group, but the family of “peppers” called him and invited him for a long time. However, John never came. But in the hall of glory it is already listed.
