Released in 1991, this album was a clear success with critics as well as the masses. It is their fifth studio album and the first one released with Warner Bros. Records.

Despite its obvious success, the creation of the album was all but a smooth road. Left without a drummer and guitarist in 1988, it involved a long search for people that had the perfect chemistry with the band. Moreover, the previous albums, which didnt become the critics favourites, were also creatively restrictive for the musicians. And since an artist needs this more than anything, the band was soon in search of a new producer as well. Fortunately, everything seemed to fall into place, and the shooting and recording finally took place in the most magical location possible: Harry Houdinis mansion. While both Smith and Frusciante felt the mansion was haunted, the latter thought that it housed were warm, friendly spirits. So cooped up in the surreal setting for 30 days straight, they created an album that reached Gold status in the USA in just two months. A little while later, it was a Platinum hit and has since gone Platinum seven times!

The hit singles, Give it Away and Under the Bridge reached the top 10. While the former track took a while to take off, the second song was an almost immediate success. Now, the album holds a position on innumerable Best Of lists, has made its way into the 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. It is even comfortably placed on Rolling Stones 500 Greatest Albums of All Time!
