KMA2154 Jane’s Addiction – Strays

Here’s another one I found at Sonic Boom for (a mere) $3…

The 5th Annual Toronto Expedition Series, Part 41 (CD/DVD)

Jane’s third record, they replaced bassist Martyn LeNoble with Chris Chaney. Perry Farrell stated they “went into the studio thinking fast, hard, modern and to the point.” Detractors called it nu-metal, but I don’t quite get that out of it. Jane’s always had that in their sound. This record sounds good to me!

The included DVD has a half hour of live, studio, and interview footage.

It’s not Ritual, nor should it be. Cool beans!

KMA1165 Jane’s Addiction – Ritual De Lo Habitual

Holy fuck. This is AMAZING.

It is my considered opinion that one must not play (the equally brilliant) Nothing’s Shocking and this album back to back. The Universe might implode from sheer awesomeness.

Here is all you need to know:

Stop!
No One’s Leaving
Ain’t No Right
Obvious
Been Caught Stealing
Three Days
Then She Did…
Of Course
Classic Girl

Now go forth and multiply the majesty!
