Aint No Right

I think the masthead should say THE Jane's Addiction Forum, instead of just A Jane's Addiction Forum

it's pretty crazy how dead that place is. there is one thread about the album streaming with 33 posts. we probably have 1000 posts on the new album so far.

And now the green grass grows...glad this place is THE Jane's Addiction forum.

Sonny, why did you take yr review down???

The traffic here has been insane. I can't keep up with the posts.

Mike's board was a temporary place after Sonny shockingly or not closed the board I was stunned and had no place to go then I received a pm message the only one at mike's from Deconstruction thanks again

Heh, you probably just got Decon banned from Mikey's place.

Damn those good intentions really Mike is such an emotional guy?

Being banned from there will really suck for him.

I mean, there are no less than 30 posts to read there every year.

haha I sent at least 50-75 PM's there to names I recognized from Xiola. Mike's board isn't active at all but he's been doing Jane's fansite stuff for awhile, so it's cool he keeps it around. I check in there a couple of times per week. There's no debating though that this is where everybody goes to discuss JA.

Pull it together, you're sinking fast.

I thought you were a girl too, your username is kinda femenine, but what do I know? I don't know what it means

I'll take that as a compliment...I mean hey, Jane's fans are okay with dudes who act feminine right? Perry is practically gay these days!

But I can't believe you would think a girl would have the mustached avatar I use.

*looks at your avatar*

Wait a minute...

Thanks! We're all about the positivity here. Glad to have you!

All this positivity,peace, and love makes me feel nervous.

Yes me too but in a positive way

Oh and i would really like to know how many females are here - i know a few but for sure not all..

Most of the songs on the album, even the best ones like Gratitude, Judas Goat and B-Side Afterburner sound like underworked Geordie demos. Too often Jazz and Geordie's love of later period Led Zeppelin seeps too far into most of the tracks. And the production is terrible.

For starters, I'm not going to pull out my Killing Joke dick and see if it measures up to yours, because I know I would lose. I'm just glad to know someone else on this board is a mega-fan like me.

I won't argue with you about Invocation because that's just a matter of opinion between two different people.

But the production, I will defend, becuase the album is supposed to sound like that. I was just by the place in Prague last month where they recorded it, and it is indeed a hellhole. Dark, dank and creepy as fuck. The girl I was with insisted on waiting outside.

I'm assuming you've read the liner notes for the album, where Jaz talks about why they chose to record there? They used vintage, outdated amps and equipment to re-capture the sound and atmosphere of their first records, which is what made those albums so game-changing at the time (in addition to the quality of the songs on them). That's what I was referring to when I said it took multiple listens to fully appreciate, because you have to pay it particular attention just to get past the sonic murkiness of the whole affair.

I guess it's just a matter of personal taste. Personally, the production on Hosannas only enhances the experience for me. If you listen to it when you're stoned, the songs (and the production) stretch themselves out considerably.

Yeah I understand the reasons and circumstances behind the recording and production of the album. They did get the raw sound they were striving for but there's all sorts of clipping and even what sounds like tape stretch on some tracks that's just amateurish. I don't expect or want Bob Rock-style production on a KJ album, but near-bootleg quality isn't exactly a good option either. And as I pointed out, there *are* a few songs on the album I like but it was a huge disappointment coming off the previous album and made all the moreso in hindsight when it's sandwiched between KJ2003 and Absolute Dissent.

But at least Hosannas is no "Outside The Gate."

Lolz "Outside the Gate", the forever-be-damned Killing Joke album. It is pretty awful, and should never have been released under the band's name. Thankfully, they followed it up with that blazing "Extremities..." album.

I am interested to know what you love so much about KJ2003, and what your favourite KJ albums are and why, if you don't mind explaining. Forgive me, it's not often I meet someone who likes this band even remotely as much as I do.

My favourites are Pandemonium, What's THIS For, and Night Time. I don't know what the latter says to you about my fandom. I never had much of a problem with their mid-80's "Depeche Joke" output, bar Outside the Gate.
