everything he's done since californication he's been clean, andn that's generally considered his best work. All the 90s stuff was considered poor because he made the albums to finance his habit.

This doesn't make any sense. Most rock'n'rollers make their best music when on a massive drug binge. sad but true.

Yeah he came off the drugs before Californication, but was into them big time before then, when he realeased a lot of solo albums.

Also i think i might be confused, i know he released loads earlier in his career, did he do the same very recently? everything he's done since californication he's been clean, andn that's generally considered his best work. All the 90s stuff was considered poor because he made the albums to finance his habit.

He released 6 albums the last months of 2004 and January 2005.

The Will To Death
ATAXIA Automatic Writing
DC EP (produced by Ian MacKaye)
Inside Of Emptiness
A Sphere In The Heart Of Silence
Curtains

I guess "Shadows Collide with People" is one of his heroin albums, but it's amazing. The other two I have -- From the Sounds Inside and To Record Only Water for Ten Days -- are pretty good, but not stellar like Inside of Emptiness.
