To Record Only Water for Ten Days
To Record Only Water for Ten Days is John Frusciante's third solo album and was released in 2001 on the Warner Music label. Unlike his previous two solo albums, Niandra LaDes and Usually Just a T-Shirt and Smile From the Streets You Hold, this recording features a drug-free Frusciante exploring the realms of synthpop and new wave. Following a stint in rehab for heroin addiction and his rejoining the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Frusciante felt deeply connected to the spiritual plane and is quoted as saying that this album was inspired by the many visions he had of spirits during this time. The lyrics express this theme and deal mostly with philosophical and spiritual matters as well as delving into his usual brand of psychedelia-tinged personalism.
