troutman Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I admit I know nothing about the band. Heard their name mentioned a lot. I was wondering if there were any fans here? They will be performing in Anchorage later on this year. Wasn't sure if it was worth checking them out or not. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Cub Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I'm personally not a fan of them, mostly due to Perry's vocals, but I can see why they're liked by others. Very influential band. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na na na Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) I love 'em. Jane's Addiction (1987), Nothing's Shocking (1988) & Ritual De Lo Habitual (1990) are all great classic albums. They really stirred thing up in a very good way when they entered the scene... Edited April 19, 2015 by Na na na 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 You should go troutman. I really like Ritual de lo Habitual and Nothing's Shocking. NS is probably the better overall album. If you find you like them, check out the Porno for Pyros debut album. Perry Farrell is on vocals, and it sounds a lot like Jane. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, you'll be glad you don't have a shitload of tattoos and body piercings afterward. It's good stuff Troutman. Besides, what else would you be doing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't go to many concerts these days. Not a lot of bands that I prefer come through here that are worth paying for. But I miss going to see more live shows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen them live, but they're interesting. If you're not breaking the bank, or really juggling your calendar, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanadoood Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Pearl jam, nirvana and soundgarden get mentioned as the breakthrough bands of the indie rock/ grunge movement, but Janes Addiction broke pretty big a few years earlier . I remember been caught stealing get a ton of play on MTV when it hit. A revolutionary band of that era, who don't don't get mentioned enough IMO. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I saw them livre at the Soundwave Festival, can't remember if it was 2009 or 2010. I don't listen to them much at home, but they sure as hell put on a great show. Definitely worth checking out! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Janes fans at thy is point are north of 35. Shouldn't be too crazy...but, again I don't know how you guys party up there :smoke: ;) I'm personally a huge JA fan. Seen them at least a dozen times and would go a dozen more given the opportunity. Check out the epic song 'Three Days': 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
