Hey listeners, you know how rock band reunions sometimes / usually suck? It would seem the recently announced Jane’s Addiction reunion wouldn’t be an exception after Perry’s Satellite Party-ing and Navarro set up Camp Freddy. But underneath the guyliner and pink feather boas are the same dudes that brought us the greatest Lou Reed cover ever, the monumental bassline of Mountain Song, and Three Days (ie Three Lays - it’s that long).

We’d like to think the band regained their senses after The Nav (come on, someone must call him that) appeared on Tim & Eric Awesome Show but Trent Reznor really greased the wheels and got all 4 OG members together for a farewell Nine Inch Nails summer tour. And check it, brahs: JA is also recording new material, and from the sound of the sparse, tribal drum-heavy single, they are actually back to experimenting.

Rhino Records is releasing A Cabinet of Curiosities, a boxset emphasizing “demos, live cuts, and rarities” from the golden age of Jane’s. If you ever wanted some contextual insight to the environment that surrounded the group between recording Nothing’s Shocking and completing Ritual De Lo Habitual then the 30 unreleased tracks and DVD with videos and rare live footage of this boxset should do the trick.
