Jane's Addiction is officially active again.
 
Don't know if you guys like them or not but they are one of my favorite rock bands of all time. Nothings Shocking is one of the great albums. They played a show in LA a few nights ago with Eric Avery on bass. Only thing is it sounds like they are significantly downtuned now. Not sure why, maybe Perry can't hit the high notes anymore?

Don't know if it's just me, but it doesn't sound the same. The lower tuning makes them sound completely different, almost unrecognizable at times

Awww, Perry is like my favorite person ever. It is true though that Jane's Addiction contains some of the most egotistical whore mongering drug addicts ever known to the world of music. Ever read about their early drug history during like Ritual de lo Habitual? JEeeeezus

Jane's Addiction are alright. They have some great songs - Been Caught Stealing, Three Days, Ted, Just Admit It, Stop, Jane Says.

I wouldn't have high expectations, but it'd be awesome to go anyway..

tesla69 10.29.2008 07:11 PM

they were pretty lightweight compared to what else was going on at the time,

Pookie 10.29.2008 07:13 PM

1) What a fucking awful band

2) Jane's Addiction ARE shit, not Jane's Addiction IS shit.

ruinedbyharps 10.29.2008 07:13 PM

Yeah. They were a hair metal band with pretensions.

radarmaker 10.29.2008 07:21 PM

They were fucking dire when I saw them 4-5 years ago.

EyeballGrowth 10.30.2008 10:48 PM

I saw them at Lollapalooza in 03. They were one of the best shows ever. When they played Ted, just admit it, it floored the whole place. They were like Zeppelin
