Friend Recommendation:
Former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist develops a new idea for each album. For The Will to Death, the idea was to have very little backing vocals. In every way, the album is the opposite of Shadows.
He also released an accompanying essay titled The Creative Act:
'The Will to Death refers to the underlying, predominantly unintentional, organization in works by artists who love and are devoted to the creative force, but hate what they see of the life force and its ways.'
'In artistic symbolism, one comes close to death, and not only does he not die, but he lives more fully for having had the experience ... so the artists will is always aiming at something it never reaches.'
