psydoll Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Well worth listening to. Get anything by them - between Fopp and One Up most of their albums must be under 8 at the most? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HummerOfIntenseEvil Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 I take it J.A. has been on the go for a wee while then...Just a bit. Their first album was out in 1987 (a live album!) and they released Nothing's Shocking in 1988 and Ritual de lo Habitual in 1990, then split up in 1991. They did a reunion tour in 1997 (Flea on bass), split up again, got together again in 2001 (with another bassist) and released Strays in 2003 (with ANOTHER bassist). Then they split up about June last year. Which is annoying.Start off with Strays or Nothing's Shocking, as they're the ones with classic riffs. Strays has Just Because (which is on many video jukeboxes, including TKs), True Nature, Wrong Girl and Suffer Some, which are all classic riffage... in fact there's only about 2 less-than-great songs on that album. Nothing's Shocking has Mountain Song, Ocean Size, Pigs In Zen and Had A Dad, which are again all classic riffage. The only tracks I'm not a huge fan of off it are Idiots Rule and Jane Says actually... and those albums have my personal favs To Match The Sun and Summertime Rolls, which are slower, more melodic songs.Ritual de lo Habitual is slightly wanky... it's got some great songs like Stop, Classic Girl, Ain't No Right, and although it's about 10 minutes long, Three Days never gets boring. But some of the other songs are a bit self-indulgent. Definitely not the album to introduce people to them.Really you just have to take the plunge... the only thing about them is that some folk get put off by Perry Farrell's (peripheral, geddit?) voice. As Psydoll said, their albums are cheap in One Up and FOPP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's CD 87 track 5. It's one of the few albums that escaped the recent purge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boss Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 you know, i thought i hated jane's addiction, but after having been made to listen to nothing's shocking many many times in a wide range of altered states i can safely say that yes, they are good, i think. yes. i also have a copy of strays but nowt else though, maybe i should investigate the stuff mentioned.
