Rockin' Our Turntable: Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction has been around quite a while, and gone through the breakup / regroup thing quite a few times, but for a band that's been around over two decades their recorded output is pretty minimal. Unlike most bands with similar lifespans Jane's Addiction seems to only record when they feel like it, and as a result their material stands up. Granted, more recent albums from the band will never pack the punch of Nothing's Shocking or Ritual De Lo Habitual that owes much to the fact that so many bands have run through the door Jane's Addiction opened, taking bits and pieces of the band's sound as they went through.
