About this product

Product Information

In SCAR TISSUE Anthony Kiedis, charismatic and highly articulate frontman of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, recounts his remarkable life story, and the history of the band itself. Raised in the Midwest, he moved to LA aged eleven to live with his father Blackie, purveyor of pills, pot, and cocaine to the Hollywood elite. After a brief child-acting career, Kiedis dropped out of U.C.L.A. and plunged headfirst into the demimonde of the L.A. underground music scene. He formed the band with three schoolfriends - and found his life's purpose. Crisscrossing the country, the Chili Peppers were musical innovators and influenced a whole generation of musicians. But there s a price to pay for both success and excess and in SCAR TISSUE, Kiedis writes candidly of the overdose death of his soul mate and band mate, Hillel Slovak, and his own ongoing struggle with an addiction to drugs. SCAR TISSUE far transcends the typical rock biography, because Anthony Kiedis is anything but a typical rock star. It is instead a compelling story of dedication and debauchery, of intrigue and integrity, of recklessness and redemption.

    I just love the amount of passion and beauty that comes across in this book . When all hope seems lost and the odds seem stacked against him . He battles through time and time again . I’m not a red hot chill pepper fan . I’ve never even heard a single song, but I have so much respect for these guys .

    this is a very honest and open tale of his life. it gives you a good idea of what it was like for him growing up, playing in a band and hitting success. it also gives you a good idea of his personality and personal views. its also entertaining and swift moving. a good read. but also left me feeling real sorry for him. i didnt know he'd such a troubled drug fuelled life.
