The album was released on July 9, 2002 on Warner Bros. Records. It sold over 282,000 copies in the first week, and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200.The singles from the album included "By the Way", "The Zephyr Song", "Can't Stop", "Dosed" and "Universally Speaking". The lyrical subject matter vocalist Anthony Kiedis addresses in By the Way is a divergence from previous Chili Peppers albums, with Kiedis taking a more candid and reflective approach to his lyricism.
By the Way was applauded by critics as a departure from the band's previous styles, and is recognized for the melodic and subdued emotions given by the Chili Peppers.Guitarist John Frusciante is credited with writing most of the album's melodies, bass lines, and guitar progressions, therefore changing the direction of the recording dramatically: "his warm, understated guitar work and his doo-wop style vocal harmonies are king this time around." By the Way contained virtually none of the signature punk-funk fusion the band had become known for playing.Frusciante has stated that writing "By the Way [was] one of the happiest times in my life."...

"Tästä se lähtee!
Odotin kyllä, että tämä olisi ollut huomattavasti paskempi levy. Ne radiohitit tosin vituttivat urakalla, mutta muutama ihan kivakin rallattelu oli mahtunut mukaan. Ihan kivasti meni kuitenkin bussimatka kotiin tätä kuunnellessa.
Kuuluuko tämä listalle vai ei?
En osaa vielä sanoa, mutta jos kuuluu, on sijoitus aika lähellä totuutta."

Pretty cool album. Quiet music like on this group.
But... probably Californication will always be my favorite .
The best songs except "By the Way" and "The Zephyr Song":
Cabron and Tear"

Lyrics:
"We all want to tell her
Tell her that we love her
Venice gets a queen
Best I've ever seen
We all want to kiss her
Tell her that we miss her
