Interview: Red Hot Chili Peppers' John Frusciante

Red Hot Chili Peppers' guitarist John Frusciante's music is strange, moody and unique - like Frusciante himself. He's issued numerous solo recordings during his tenure with the Peppers, and with the band on an indefinite hiatus, he's produced his most beguiling album yet, The Empyrean. Lovers of six string madness will revel in this collection, but it's filled with enough haunting tunes to lure any music aficionado. In this exclusive interview, Frusciante discusses his unorthodox approach to following his muse, and he hints that Chili Peppers fans shouldn't hold their breathe waiting for the next record.
