Jane's Addiction's 1988 breakthrough album, Nothing's Shocking ,
had a seismic impact. With a bracing combination of metal, punk,
and psychedelia, coupled with lead singer Perry Farrell's
banshee-ina- wind-tunnel vocals, Jane's Addiction helped put
alternative music on the map. The band helped pave the way for the
mainstream success of bands like Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and
Nirvana. Along the way, Jane's Addiction released another classic
album, Ritual de lo Habitual (with the hit "Been Caught Stealing"),
founded the Lollapalooza festival, and openly celebrated a
bacchanalian lifestyle that blurred all lines of gender and
sexuality. Drawn from original interviews with the band, their
friends, and their musical colleagues, Whores takes readers through
Farrell's early sonic experiments with Psi-Com and the formative
days of Jane's Addiction to their drug-addled break-up and
controversial reunion with 2003's Strays . Along the way it
provides a candid, often disturbing glimpse into the dynamic
alternative rock scene of Los Angeles in the'80s and'90s.
