The Nu Metal Frontrunners Extend Their Tour

Get ready for the Janeassaince! Jane's Addiction are back and ready to rock the road once more as they tour with their classic lineup for the first time in 14 years! Consisting of frontman Perry Farrell, drummer Stephen Perkins with bassist Eric Avery and guitarist Dave Navarro, the alt-rock icons will be joined by Love & Rockets for this super exciting return.

Widely recognized as one of the pioneering acts of alt-metal, the band is credited for the mainstream exposure of the alternative scene in the 1990s after emerging from the LA glam metal and goth scene of the late Eighties and early Nineties. They are also credited for influencing a number of well-known and enduring rock acts including Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana (under Cobain) and even metal-heads System of a Down. If you're looking for the jumping off point from where nu-metal, alt-rock or indie folk split off from, look no further than Jane's Addiction; these guys have played it all.
