A new porno album would be better than janes

#1 Post by embrace_the_darkness » Wed May 23, 2012 12:39 am

Janes has such expectations associated with it, nothing will ever live up to ritual and nothing's shocking.

A new porno album would have comparably zero pressure to live to up anything. no one is going to ask them to play at a product launch or associate them with a new credit card so they don't really run the risk of tarnishing their reputations for some cash. What I'm getting at is, porno might just have such little interference that they could actually make something good.

I think the motives might be a little more pure.

This isn't news, but fuck... Not like the band are giving anyone anything worth talking about.

I think a new James album of overproduced bullshit would do more harm than good.

Porno then anyone?

I think porno would be better suited for an aging Perry. It would fit the more mellow stoner vibe which is what Perry should be shooting for. Keep it real all the way and that fits him these days. He's not a punk rocker anymore. I love Dave Navarro, he and Pete could collaborate on a new porno album and that would be cool.

yeah but even though dave did some porno stuff towards the end going into relapse, it wasn't his deal and martyn has said he won't do it so it's not gonna be porno...why not just do something fresh instead of dragging dismembered corpses around for pay checks?

A new Porno album would have to live up to the two Porno albums which isn't an easy thing to do. I hope they leave it alone as well

I agree with Matz. Though i am not the biggest PFP fan, i love some of their songs. :rockon:

But i would rather have a new JA one, after a longer hiatus i listened to TGEA again and i still really like it. But whatever... it will take a million years for another one so why bother now :lol: :lol:

I'd love to hear some more Surf rock songs from Pete and Perry. But nothing beats a Janes show. The 2012 shows are great and Perry is on fire this tour. Hard to ask for much more than they're giving us.

i would want a p4p album just out of curiosity. i don't give a shit about tarnishing any legacies. martyn is in kind of a different place now being part of a hollywood family with a new kid. he really doesn't need to put up with perrry's ego at this point of his life. we all know pete would do it though. he is currently waiting bu the phone for the call. :lol:

it will never happen. :noclue:

what's Pete up to these days, is he still cranking out a lot of solo stuff? or maybe he is too busy waiting for that call from Perry...

Man, I don't know. I can't imagine it would be the same. Those guys were in a different place back then, and I don't think they're going back there.

I really enjoyed both PFP cd's. I really liked that they both had very different vibes to them. I could be them putting together a follow up to GGU. A think they could pull off another mellow cd, but my concern would be Perry's lyrics. I'd be more interested in seeing a new PFP then JA.

So why wouoldn't Martyn do it?

There was a time I would have wanted this, not even that long ago. But not now. Jane's legacy has been permanently altered and it is what it is now. P4P remains pure. Whatever they do they can do it as Jane's. For me P4P meant about as much to me as Jane's. It was easy considering when I started getting in to them was when P4P was new and I was working my way back in to Jane's, and then GGU blew me away. The songs, the vibe, the shows. It was special.

Leave it alone.

I think the vibe with GGU might be easier for them to get then old JA. I always felt there was more to PFP and would be interested to see what would come of it. It could suck, but it could also be pretty cool.

I'd love to hear some acoustic and hard charger like songs. But it's quite simple. Jane's has a draw. P4P doesn't. Janes is selling out 2,000 seat theaters. I think p4p would be back to a satellite party 600 people per city now.

I've always contended that Perry should have rode off in to the sunset of his career playing trippy acoustic surf stuff with Pete ala GGU.

But the GGU vibe had a lot to do with being trippy. That's not Perry anymore.

This is the bottom line :nod:

Unless Perry turns a 180 (which is close to impossible imo) I wouldn't expect much from ANY project he's involved in.

So then maybe he goes lounge act or maybe he already did with JA.
