I'm With You marks the Chili Peppers' first album with guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, who replaced John Frusciante after his departure from the band in 2009.On the new album, Flea had this to say: "We still sound like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but it’s really a lot different. Josh is a very textural, poetic, and sublime musician, and just comes at it from a different angle than anything that we’ve had before. So we’re just reacting to him, and it makes us play different, so we’re just going a different way, and it’s great."
