Niandra LaDes

Keegi on kirjutanud selle kohta nii:
Niandra La Des is a bizarre and challenging recording. Deeply introspective, hallucinogenically meandering, by turns delicate and fitful, it is reminiscent of the late sixties solo albums by Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd's disturbed founder.

Huvitav tõesti, et mulle hakkas Syd Barrett meeldima...

The word that best describes these intensely private recordings is, perhaps, the word "chilling". Adding to the eerie vibe is the presence of late actor River Phoenix, who contributes a backwards monologue to one track, and sings and plays acoustic guitar on another. It was Frusciante's Hollywood cronies who persuaded him to release his home recordings: "All my friends - Perry Farrell, Johnny Depp, Flea, Gibby Haynes, and River - begged me to put it out. They told me that, what with all the shitty music that's out there nowadays, this record needs to be out. I eventually gave in."

Ja mulle nii väga meeldib see arvustus: SIIN

Ja jällegi:
"Frusciante's record is meant to be experienced, not analyzed. You drift within the meandering melodies. It's scary because the roads are so unfamiliar and illogical. But it's also warm, like a caress - there's a haunting, evocative touch within its broad spaces." (Warp, June 1995).

Ja keegi veel võrdles teda Sydiga.
