Simon Witter, i-D, March 1988
Judderfunk Giants of the Hollywood Hills, and foes of all things orderly, the Red Hot Chili Peppers have just released The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, and album of bone-crunching mayhem funk that will put a whammy on your wanger and apply the G-force to your G-spot. Simon Witter caught them preparing to blaze a smelly trail of dirty funk across Europe.
