Music Monday - Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction - Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction is an alternative rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1985. The band consists of Perry Farrell (vocals), Dave Navarro (guitar), Eric Avery (bass) and Stephen Perkins (drums). They are one of the early pioneers of alternative and have undergone several breakups. Flee of Red Hot Chilli Peppers was a member of the Addiction from 1997 - 2001. Dave Navarro also was part of the Chilli Peppers for a few year. The band members have varied musical style and have roots in varied genres including gothic rock and heavy metal. So who was Jane? The name of the band came from Perry Farrell's housemate, Jane Bainter, who was addicted to drugs. I guess the name fits. Their initial farewell tour launched the first Lollapalooza festival that was an alternative rock showcase of several music acts
"Mountain Song" was released on their 1988 album Nothing's Shocking. The song is about two significant girls in Perry Farrell's life who died. The music video was banned from MTV because of nudity scenes and scenes of teen girls dancing in diapers. The song was also named the 71st best hard rock song of all time by VH1. Navaro's guitar riffs and Farrell's vocals propel the the song from start to end. Speaking of the start, the bass line is a interesting and sublime until the heavy guitar joins in. The video... nothing to write home about.
