Jane's Addiction is an American alternative rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1985. The band's original line-up featured Perry Farrell (vocals), Dave Navarro (guitar), Eric Avery (bass) and Stephen Perkins (drums).
The first album Nothing’s Shocking was released in 1988. The band went on tour to promote the album opening for Iggy Pop and Ramones.
The single from the album – “Jane Says"
Ritual de lo Habitual their second album was released in 1990. Dave Navarro stated that due to his addiction to heroin he has almost no recolection of working on the album.
Little by little self-destruction won round 1 and the group separated in 1991 with the desire to put their lives on track again.
“Stop”
The years that followed Farell’s addiction to drugs seemed to get worse and at that time the fans and the media waited only the worse.
Even the 2003 worldwide tour in support of their third album “Strays” ended shortly with a new break-up. The reasons seemed to be the same – addiction and hate.
“Just Because”
The new break from each other lasted from 2004 to 2008 in which the band members were involved in various projects.
Navarro, Perkins, and Chaney formed a new band, The Panic Channel, with singer Steve Isaacs, releasing only one album, called One.
Perry Farrell, and his wife Etty Lau Farrell formed The Satellite Party and released their debut album, Ultra Payloaded in 2007.
Eric Avery signed with Dangerbird Records for the release of his solo album Help Wanted in 2008.
Their greatest hits album titled “Up from the Catacombs” – The Best of Jane's Addiction was released on September 19, 2006.
Jane's Addiction performed at NME Awards USA on April 23, 2008, with the original line-up of Perry Farrell, Dave Navarro, Eric Avery, and Stephen Perkins.
At the same time Trent Reznor posted photos of the group which led to the belief that JA was recordind new material. Soon to be followed by the announcement of Trent that Jane's Addiction would accompany Nine Inch Nails on their summer 2009 tour.
During the Soundwave Festival 2010 in Australia Eric Avery closes the JA experiment and leaves the band.
Which leads us to October 2011 and the "Great Escape Artist" and the new video “Irresistible Force” which has 1,039,457 views on youtube.
