Red Hot Chili Peppers have revealed that they're not bothered about their single being leaked online before its official release.
Lead single 'The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie' from forthcoming album 'I'm With You', appeared online early Monday morning (July 18).
Speaking to Radio One's Zane Lowe, bassist Flea said: ''The only thing that I would ever worry about would be if I was lazy or I didn't really take my time in the songwriting process to make the music as good as I thought it could be,"
He added "That's the only thing I ever fret about because I do have a lazy streak. Anything that happens once the music is done, come what may."
I'm With You' will be Red Hot Chili Peppers' first album since 1995's 'One Hot Minute' to not feature guitarist John Frusicante, who quit two years ago.
The Los Angeles group's last album 'Stadium Arcadium' was released in 2006.
