[The Horrible Esthete]

Jane's Addiction

They just toured not too long ago, and put an album a few years ago. Fantastic album too.

Yes, they did - it's called Strays and it's a fine album. But 1) it was sans original bassist Eric Avery , and 2) will they even make another? Quite a murky outlook, knowing those personalities.

But oh, what could have been in that decade of inactivity....that void cannot be filled, and how I wish that they had maintained that continuity and momentum and given us more to enjoy. I think Nothing's Shocking and Ritual de lo Habitual are both legendary hard-rock albums, and they were only the first and second of JA's polished studio releases. Look at what the Hip accomplished after UTH and RA - now imagine what Jane's Addiction's Fully Completely, DfN, PP, etc. would have been like!

Wow.
