Scar Tissue by Anthony Kiedis & Larry Sloman Book Summary

In this "vivid and inspiring" New York Times bestseller (Newsweek), the Red Hot Chili Peppers' lead singer and songwriter shares a searingly honest account of life in the rock scene's fast lane—from the darkness into the light.

In 1983, four self-described "knuckleheads" burst out of the mosh-pitted mosaic of the neo-punk rock scene in L.A. with their own unique brand of cosmic hardcore mayhem funk. Over twenty years later, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, against all odds, have become one of the most successful bands in the world. Though the band has gone through many incarnations, Anthony Kiedis, the group's lyricist and dynamic lead singer, has been there for the whole roller-coaster ride. In Scar Tissue, Kiedis delivers a compelling life story from a man "in love with everything"—the darkness, the death, the disease. Even his descent into drug addiction was a part of that journey, another element transformed into art.

Whether he's honoring the influence of the beautiful, strong women who have been his muses or remembering the roaring crowds of Woodstock and the Dalai Lama's humble compound, Kiedis shares a compelling story about the price of success and excess. Scar Tissue is a story of dedication and debauchery, of intrigue and integrity, of recklessness and redemption—a story that could only have come out of the world of rock.

Honest moving story. A great autobiography. Anthony comes across as honest as they come. Tells the story of his unstructured childhood and the rise of the RHCP in matter of a fact fashion not focused on glorifying himself. Cool to see the relationships with his band mates. Great insight into his thinking during the battle with addiction. Interesting insight in his character as he strives and mostly succeeds in staying faithful to various girlfriends despite the temptations of the road. Like Anthony before respect him a lot more now.

Check it out. Great read. Especially if you're an addict or alcoholic or if your life has been affected by one.

Healing. Reading this book is mesmerizing, like watching a train wreck in super slow-mo, simultaneously wanting to make it stop while not being able to tear your eyes from the inevitable, fascinating wreckage. Whitnessing AK’s seemlingly endless battle with addiction unfold; descent into hell, recovery, pause, repeat, is painful. But, as the horror unfolds and the revolving door of muses float in and out of his life, he also gives a priveleged view into his creative process as well as that of an amazing group of artist, and the evolution of their music. All the joy, beauty, artistry, friendship and glee is there, along with the pain, loss, exaustion and powerlessness of addiction. This book offers insight to any fan of their music, and a cautionary tale of hope and redemption for those of us battling similar demons. Thank you Swan, for sharing your journey with us.

APRN. Awesome, appreciate the candor from Anthony, drug/alcohol addiction is real. I'm dealing with it this book helped!! Thanks Tony

What a life. A great story of what it was really like to find your inner self, while at the same time creating an amazing band. A very personal and real story. Stay sober A.K. We are with you

Finished the book tonight. Restarted the book tonight!. Best book I've ever read! The ups and downs of Anthony Kiedis and RHCP! You get inside his head and you feel his joy and pain and compassion! I could not put the book down! I would recommend this book to anyone! Not only music or RHCP fans like myself. I can understand how it can affect everyone! Read it!

♥️. Read this book in 3 days. Page turner. So good!

Epic. One of my favorite past times is reading and re reading this book. A life of sin and success that is addicting to follow along.

Scar Tissue. I really identified to the struggle that was described in this book. The whole time reading I was imagining how beautiful all the women were and low and behold, the pictures to prove it, follow the story. Surrender to win my friends, surrender to win!!!!!

An Incredible Life Loved and Lived. When Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote “Into the Wilderness,” and reference “sucking the marrow out of life,” there is not other life I’ve read about that is more axiomatic than Anthony Kiedis’. A remarkable introspection that shares so much about life, love, addiction and recovery. So much raw truth, you can’t put it down. Enjoy!

Pleasure to read. This book is a pure page turner that any rhcp fan (or music fan) should read at least once in their life. Very insightful regarding the bands triumphs and struggles as well as Anthony‘s. 5 stars.

Incredible. A deep look into the life of a rockstar, addiction, and the music industry. One of the best books I have read in a very long time.

Fun. I mean it.

Addicted. Thank you for sharing your life, my fav is all those great artist you became in contact with at such a young age, so rad!!!

So raw. Such an unexpected beautiful journey. Thanks for such an unabashed look at yourself and your life.

Phenomenal Book. What an incredibly inspiring story!

Best book ever. I despise reading and I could not put this book down! Such an insane story

Excellent. This is a very good book. I work at a rehab center and recommend it to all my clients. I also learned a lot from reading it.

really good read. I would totally recommend this to any fan of the Red Hot Chillie Peppers or any fan of rock music. you can learn alot about the issues he went through and everything they did as a band that no one really knew about.

Amazingly candid. Wow! Anthony leaves no details out of this book. He is so candid and honest and he has been through quite a lot in his life. I knew he had suffered some drug problems but I never knew to what extent. This is truly one of the longest books I have ever read by a famous musician and once again it’s because he is so graphic in a wonderful way. He is incredibly self-aware, descriptive and apologetic from any of his actions. This is without a doubt one of the best if not the best autobiography I have ever read. Thank you Anthony for sharing your life with us and please keep making music.

Great book!. A great biography of AK's life and how RHCP started. A must read for any RHCP fan! And for anyone looking for a great rock n roll lifestyle biography. Awesome book!

Well done, friend.. Unbelievable. Kept me from start to finish. There were points where you'd feel high and many times hungover.

Also scarred. This collection of thoughts and memories of craziness and love reminded me of a life i had forgotten of myself and brought many smiles and tears. Thank you AK

Scar tissue. Awesome book-I'm obsessed with seeing the rhcp's in concert now....one of the few bands I haven't had the pleasure to see in person. Anthony's crazy and very gifted!

Stick to writing songs not books. A disappointed effort to write about one life and all you have shared in your music doesn’t relate to this book.

Awesome!. This book was a rollercoaster from beginning to end. An amazing read and great book to have in the collection.

Amazing story. This book was an absolute joy to read, I would recommend this book to any Chili Peppers fan.
