Aint No Right

:lolol: Times are changing so we should no longer use the "N" word, but let's paint all WHITE people as hysterics. Jesus progressives are f**** annoying, and hypocrites. Color me shocked that basic logic fails you. You can always fuck off and find a different board. I’d probably find a different ba...

It has nothing to do with the band. It’s white make outrage at suddenly feeling like they’re not in complete control anymore. :lolol: Times are changing so we should no longer use the "N" word, but let's paint all WHITE people as hysterics. Jesus progressives are f**** annoying, and hypocrites. Col...

And regarding the current generation of children - My children know better Well, well... if Hokahey's children know better... I'm not going to inundate this post with links to journal articles about the mental health situation amongst teens and young adults. Suffice it to say Hokahey, you're either...

Oh buddy. Did you really just use the “well then how come rappers can say it” argument? The person oppressed by a word should have free rein to own and utilize it as they see fit. If you are not of that community, then you really shouldn’t, regardless of intent. Shouldn't... oh la la. Based on what...

Still, it's probably the right call to stop singing the word. Based on what? As an artist or songwriter, what is your guiding principle(s) to how you create art? I pay for Apple Music - most new music launched weekly is Rap/Urban and the "N" word flows freely and often. What principle informs that?...

The surreal part of our culture right now is how the majority are going along with a vocal minority on issues they don't believe in. I'm pretty sure it's not sustainable... we'll see. With respect to Perry... he won't say the N word, but approves the low-brow simulated sex show his wife and her coho...

Now we need to see Of Course.

Years before Song Yet To Be Sung, Of Course demonstrates Perry's affinity and/or complex feelings for his Jewish roots. The song has a Klezmer feel, with Chassidic niggun (wordless melodies) sprinkled throughout.

Sorry to say but this band is too old and lost all inspiration left. I agree - but we all get "too old". I'm in mid-50s, I can't/won't mountain bike the way I did in my 20s. Why would I risk breaking my wrist or back and putting undue stress on my wife and family? Perry is old enough to be a Zayde,...

I didn’t remember Why Cry sounding like Taking Back Sunday or any of those shitty early aughts emo bands. You just made me go. Listen to it again. It is unbelievable how bad it is. I can’t believe that any of them would have confidence in that song. And I can’t decipher Dave or Perkins playing in i...

A Jane’s album with Josh K would be lame. No thanks.

Lame is:

The Panic Channel
Producing Porn
Producing reality TV shows
Playing guitar in cover bands

To sum up my thoughts:

"Oooo, that's imaginative. I've got more taste in my penis." - Lee Donowitz, True Romance

If we're being honest, Dave didn't write some of the most iconic guitar parts on some of their most iconic songs. My two favourite Jane's Addictions songs are Summertime Rolls and Mountain Song. Both are driven by Avery's rolling bass-lines and Perry's sense of melody and phrasing. As much as I lik...

Post-Deconstruction, Navarro's guitar playing seemed middle of the road, glam metal-lite. Nothing he touched on his own (without Perry and Avery) sounded innovative at all. I'm glad he's not involved in the new music.

That's not what Dave hated. [...] You don't just get to make things up years later, Hoka. Some of us have receipts. If so, cry me a fucking river [...] So post whatever sound clips you like. Hokahey - as an outsider to all of this, your entire post reads like: Man I lost this argument but I'm going...

I have no dog in this fight re: Troy vs DN. I'm simply an old fart who once adored Jane's Addiction. I also played guitar in a few indie-alt bands, always trying to emulate Kevin Shields from MBV. To my ears, Troy brings an adventuresome spirit to Jane's that I haven't heard in a long, long time. Hi...

Came across this to check out a tune or two. I couldn't stop watching; it was like discovering a new band. I don't listen to much Jane's these days, but this was a brutal reminder of their absolute dominion in music and performance back then...especially PF. 5TJWYMG6C7Y Ain't no Right... nobody cou...

And yes, I'm always this critical of myself. It's how I strive to do better in all aspects of my life.

I don't know you, but I can confidently say... you can do better.

I find it weird how much animus middle aged people have towards their teen idols. I mean, most of us are in our 40s and 50s, are you this critical about the trajectory of your life i.e. regrets, hypocrisy, etc? If so, that's a bitter way to spend the last few years before cancer or dementia take the...

It's gotten way worse. Eric Avery - due to skin color - embodies white supremacy, so he'd be on the chopping block as well. It's a good thing the cool kids in 2021 could give a rats-ass about Jane's Addiction. :eyes: This is ridiculously stupid. Tweet (2021) Just saw this new band called Jane's Add...

It's gotten way worse. Man... I haven't commented on this site since... forever. Without getting into too many details, let me give you a gist for how chilling the climate is... in the medical profession. My partner is a physician, and she has colleagues (who I have spoken with) who have opted out ...
