Looking for something simillar

[Kristafon]

The Red Hot Chilli Peppers seem to be know more for their slow songs like Californiacation and Universally Speeking. However I prefer their songs which are more "funk" in style, especially the beginning of BSSM. I have looked into that genre but there is a lot of electronic music, rather than real instruments, in it which annoys me. Have you got any suggestions?

Audioslave maybe... some of the songs are similar..... Maybe soundgarden aswell

[Bad^Hat]

Rage Against The Machine always had that same flavour of heavy funk.

[Kristafon]

Thanks! I will go and download some now (from iTunes, honest!) Any particaular songs?

[Narcolepsy]

Maybe some of the earlier Incubus stuff?

[Kristafon]

wow im liking RATM, what do you rekon is their best ablum?

[Bad^Hat]

Yeah Incubus' SCIENCE, and to a lesser extent, Make Yourself (and maybe Fungus Amongus, yet to give it a listen) are very funky/heavy. SCIENCE is worthy of a purchase, their best work to date (IMO of course).

The first one, self-titled, undoubtedly. Other than that their other two albums (Evil Empire and Battle Of Los Angeles) are great, and Renegade is a CD mainly composed of covers by them, I haven't heard it.

AND Chad Smith on the drums, so it's all good.
