Re: “Agua” out 11/16

Over the past 20 years, I've wondered why Perry couldn't seem to figure out that he shouldn't be trying to sound like Bono with his vocals, but softer, and lean into the deeper register, at least somewhat. He does that here. It's much better than I expected it to be. A bit of a silly tune, like Dogs...

Re: So .. now what?

I guess the one virtue of that song is that the lyrics seem true. She wants to sing. Except she's talk-singing that verse in an unremarkable, boring voice (her voice). The generic Perry Farrell banshee wail thing in the background sometimes is the best part of the track, but it seems totally out of ...

Re: The Volatile History of Jane’s Addiction

I remember when TGEA came out there was some sort of live stream where the whores book came up. Perry was bashing it hard while Dave and Perk sort of awkwardly sat there and laughed Pretty sure the author posted here (or xiola.org) when he was still working on it, or almost finished it.

Re: The Volatile History of Jane’s Addiction

It’s basically bullets from Saga of a Hypester and Whores. He actually reads quotes and tells stories that were covered in Saga of a Hypester. Which is known to be quite a bit of bullshit if I remember correctly. Yeah. Wasn't there a quote from Perry saying that the guy who wrote that thing caused ...
