Red Hot Chili Peppers

The Red Hot Chili Peppers formed in 1983 when Anthony Kiedis and Flea who had met in high school decided to start up a band. A year after Hillel Slovak's death (due to heroine overdose) the Red Hot Chili Peppers hit it big with the release of the CD Mother's Milk. After that the Red Hot Chili Peppers released the wildly successful Blood Sugar Sex Magik, which had mainstream hits like Under The Bridge, and Give It Away. 1999's Californication was another huge hit. More hits include, Scar Tissue, and Can't Stop. The Red Hot Chili Peppers' were also honored that year with a Video Vanguard Award.
