Jane’s Addiction Discography Updated

I’m very happy to announced that we’ve completed our overhaul of the Jane’s Addiction discography.  All primary releases (albums, singles & demos) have been overhauled and integrated into the new site format.  Each entry includes a lot more information.  We’ve also added tons of new scans, as well as upgraded countless of our existing scans.  These articles are far more detailed that our previous incarnation, and all titles are granted a single page as opposed to pages for each version.

We’ll continue to update and improve this section, as well as continue our expansion of this upgrade across other bands.  If you have missing scans, or can upgrade existing scans, feel free to contact us and / or send new scans to submissions < at > janesaddiciton < dot > org.

I was told last week by Perry that writing and work would be in full effect starting this week. Today both Perry and Dave made it official via Twitter. Jane’s Addiction have begun work on a new album.

From Perry:

Today the first day of writing for Jane’s. We are meeting up in the city weekdays. Today’s my first drive. I love LA, but it’s roads agony.

From Dave:

Yes, this site is still around.  I finally got around to adding the rest of the 2009 tour dates as well as the upcoming Halloween and 2010 Australian dates to the site.  Meanwhile, Mike has been working like crazy adding a ton of great info (including some newly uncovered dates) to the tour archive.  So check that out.  Discography updates are in the works, so stay tuned…

Perry Injures Leg In Atlanta

According to Etty Farrell and Eric Avery’s twitter feeds, Perry Farrell tore a calf muscle last night during the NIN/JA show in Atlanta, GA last night.  The injury happened during Three Days, Jane’s Addiction’s opening song.  Perry, the consummate performer, powered through the pain and Jane’s was able to complete their set.  Perry has been given the recommendation to stay off his leg for a week.  I doubt this will lead to Jane’s canceling any dates, it will just limit what Perry can do on stage.  If any dates are canceled, I will let you know.

“Perrypalooza” Reviews

Perry celebrated his 50th birthday this past weekend at the Mirage in Las Vegas with the aptly named “Perrypalooza”.  There were a number of performances that night from various celebrities.  Jane’s Addiction closed out the night, but equally as important is the fact that this night was the first time in 12 years that Porno For Pyros performed together.  Perry, Steve, Martyn and Pete cranked out Meija and Tahitian Moon.

Here are a couple of articles for those who want to read about all the fun:

New JA Releases Next Week

Just a reminder, the Jane’s Addiction box set Cabinet of Curiosities comes out next Tuesday.  There are two main flavors, a regular and limited edition version.  Musically, the two versions are identical, but the limited edition version has a few extras inside the box for die hard collectors.  This version is limited at 7500 numbered copies, and there are rumors that pre-orders have already claimed most of them.  Also, Best Buy has a their own special edition which includes a bonus disc containing four live tracks taken from the Irvine Meadows Lollapalooza shows on July 23rd and July 24th, 1991.

Also coming out next week are Rhino Record’s vinyl reissues of Nothing’s Shocking and Ritual de lo Habitual.  Both are being released on high quality 180 gram vinyl.  This is the second time Ritual has recieved the 180 gram vinyl treatment, but I believe it is the first time for Nothing’s Shocking. These are must haves for vinyl afficinacondos, and die hard Jane’s fans alike.

Edit: The non limited-edition “slipcase” version of the Cabinet of Curiosities box set is due May 5th.
