5 stars Amputechture is one of the best albums i've heard recently, although I expected a little more originality, something new or different; it is as great or even better than the previous albums. Cedric's vocals continue to improve in english and specially in spanish. The lyrics are a little more complex and profound. The guitar work is excellent, both Frusciante's and Omar's. I think they did a good combination. Jon Theodore is excellent as usual, and all other muscisians seem to create an excellent atmosphere for the listener. The ballads trap you while the rest of the songs are as always chaotic and strident that makes you find strong emotions though out the album. I think it is a masterpiece of TMVfor its musci and emotions, although for the next album I would like something more innovative, otherwise no matter how good it is I will find it either boring or repitive.
