I'm With You is the tenth studio album by American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers. The album was released by Warner Bros. Records on August 29, 2011, a day earlier than originally planned. The album made its debut at number one in eighteen different countries including the United Kingdom while reaching number two in the United States and Canada.
Produced by Rick Rubin, it is the band's first studio album to feature guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, following the departure of John Frusciante in 2009, and is their first since 2006's Stadium Arcadium, marking the longest gap, to date, between Red Hot Chili Peppers' studio albums. The album received mostly favorable reviews with many praising newcomer Josh Klinghoffer for breathing new life into the veteran group although some critics felt otherwise and that the record lacked the focus and creativity from the previous records that featured Frusciante. The album has so far produced four singles including the number one hit, "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie", "Monarchy of Roses", "Look Around" and "Brendan's Death Song". "Did I Let You Know" was released exclusively in Brazil thanks to response from a poll voted on by the fans although it wasn't considered a proper single. A Rolling Stone Reader's Poll named I'm with You the 8th best album of 2011 and the album was also nominated for one Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.
Regarding the album, vocalist Anthony Kiedis noted, "there is no question - this is a beginning," with drummer Chad Smith stating, "this is a new band. Same name, but it's a new band."
The band's official site held a global listening party on August 22, 2011 where they streamed the entire album. Various radio stations throughout the world began playing tracks on the same date leading up to the album's release. The full album was also made available to stream for free on the iTunes Store.
