John Frusciantes eighth solo album, The Empyrean, is largely viewed as containing some of his best solo work. Released on January 20, 2009, the album marks the end of Frusciantes analog self-production, and rock-influenced approach to composing. The Empyrean was recorded intermittently between December 2006 and March 2008, and as a concept album, reflects a single narrative both musically and lyrically. Derived from Medieval Latin, the Empyrean empyreus is the highest part of heaven, once believed to be the realm of pure fire.

After lying low for a few years after a tremendous burst of activity in 2004, John Frusciante is back with another solo album, Empyrean. It starts out with a fantastic instrumental called Before the Beginning: a great minor key guitar solo, replete with echoplexed drums that was surely inspired by Maggot Brain. After that, it's back to the kind of introspective songs that have characterized much of his solo work. His singing is actually pretty remarkable considering his initial forays into vocals. Album 2009 10 Songs. Альтернатива 2009. Before the Beginning. John Frusciante, The Empyrean. 4, 5 stars 4 out of 5 stars. Record Collection. Frusciante joined the Chili Peppers as an 18-year-old guitar prodigy. With his affecting songwriting and a guitar style that sought to marry technique and intuition, he helped the band become, within four years, one of the biggest acts in the world. Disgusted by the straitjacket of success, Frusciante's head flipped. He quit the group in 1992 and, soon after, released Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt, an album of haunted compositions that recalled the raw, fragile solo work of Syd Barrett and Skip Spence
