Anthony Keidis Scar Tissue: The Autobiography (Red Hot Chili Peppers) [BOOK]

Synopsis:

In 1983 four self-described "knuckleheads" burst out of the neo-punk rock scene in LA with their own unique brand of cosmic hard-core mayhem funk. Over 20 years later, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, against all the odds, have become one of the most successful bands in the world. Though the band has gone through many incarnations, Anthony Kiedis, the group's lyricist and dynamic lead singer, has been there for the whole rollercoaster ride.

Scar Tissue is Kiedis's searingly honest memoir - a story of dedication and debauchery, of intrigue and integrity, of recklessness and redemption. it is a story that could only have come out of Hollywood.
