Jane's Addiction

Jane's Addiction, also known as Triple-X or XXX by fans, is the debut album by the band Jane's Addiction. It was recorded live at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles on January 26, 1987. Overdubs were later recorded at The Edge studio in Los Angeles and added to the album mix. The audience track is from a Los Lobos concert. The tracks "Jane Says" and "Pigs in Zen" were both later released on the band's first studio album, Nothing's Shocking, as studio versions.

The album included two covers: "Rock & Roll" by The Velvet Underground, and "Sympathy for the Devil" by The Rolling Stones, although the latter was titled "Sympathy" on the album.

The songs "Whores" and "Chip Away" were recently re-recorded by the reunited Jane's Addiction and Nine Inch Nails front man, Trent Reznor.

Does anyone have the Jane's Addiction bootleg (white vinl album) called "Ritual Bondage"?A friend of mine taped it on cassette for me but it got chewed up in the tape deck.She traded it for Zeppelin's "Blueberry Hill" bootleg.

I do think the one guy has a similar voice. But to say flat out that Middle Class sounds like them....is giving too much of an expectation. ;)

This song is perfect! It's off the first Jane's cd I had; when I heard the "real" version of "Jane Says" I thought there was something wrong with me because I didn't (and still don't, honestly) like it compared to the version on this album.

don't get me wrong I'm not putting them down, its just that somebody told me that MIDDLE CLASS RUT - NEW LOW sounded like these guys and I looked this song up with that expectation and it didn't satisfy me, but I'm not saying their bad or anything.
