Boy, has it been an enormous month for Jane’s Dependancy. Final week, when a bunch of non-metal heads in all probability realized that the “Jane Says” rockers had reunited for the primary time in 14 years within the first place, lead singer Perry Farrell made headlines for taking a swing at guitarist Dave Navarro onstage. The band apologized after a video of Farrell getting actually dragged off the stage unfold throughout the web, and canceled the remainder of the tour shortly after. Now, they’ve a brand new tune out. Allow us to breathe, Jane’s Dependancy!
If the observe, titled “True Love,” is a eulogy for the band, it positive is an ironic one. “After I first felt real love, I used to be very younger/I attempted to explain it to my pals/You’re floating in one thing that’s method over your head/Wading within the waters of real love,” Farrell sings, earlier than proclaiming that he’s “Craving to be once more with my real love” on the finish of the ballad. Based on NME, the band debuted the tune reside in London earlier this 12 months and have performed it at a handful of reveals since. It was presumably scheduled to come back out this week whatever the struggle, and the band (or their managers) determined to not let it crumble into obscurity. The artists have been completely silent concerning the launch on social media, nonetheless, so we could by no means know.
That is the second single the band’s authentic lineup has launched since reuniting, following “Imminent Redemption” (one other ironic title looking back) this previous August. The identical month, Navarro informed Rolling Stone {that a} new album was “greater than doubtless going to occur.” “I imply, we have now recorded materials,” he elaborated. “I don’t know particularly the mannequin, if it’s going to be a tune at a time, or if we’re going to drop a tune after which a file, or I don’t actually know. I form of keep out of that stuff. What issues to me most is that these things is on vinyl.”
Sadly, Navarro could not have the ability to keep out of the decision-making course of at the moment. Whether or not this materials ever sees the sunshine of day or if Farrell will likely be left craving to be once more along with his real love stays to be seen.
On Monday, the singer issued a press release of his personal concerning the struggle. “This weekend has been extremely tough and after having the time and area to mirror, it’s only proper that I apologize to my bandmates, particularly Dave Navarro, followers, household and pals for my actions throughout Friday’s present,” Farrell informed Selection. “Sadly, my breaking level resulted in inexcusable habits, and I take full accountability for a way I selected to deal with the scenario.”
