With minimal messaging and apparently not a touch of irony, troubled alt-rock quartet Jane’s Habit has launched a brand new single referred to as “True Love” — two days after the band canceled its newest tour following an onstage altercation Friday that noticed singer Perry Farrell punching guitarist Dave Navarro.
The band had not introduced the tune on its social-media platforms on the time of this text’s publication, though it was serviced to media Wednesday morning with a quick press launch that included a quote concerning the group’s earlier single, “Imminent Redemption,” which was launched in July, and the next easy sentence: “As we speak, the unique line-up, vocalist Perry Farrell, guitarist Dave Navarro, drummer Stephen Perkins, and bassist Eric Avery, debuted the brand new single ‘True Love,’ out there now throughout all digital streaming platforms.”
The tune is a low-key, mid-tempo ballad with an arpeggiated riff from Navarro and muted drumming from Perkins, and a mild vocal from Farrell about discovering real love.
The onstage altercation — which occurred in Boston on Friday evening — led to the cancellation of the remaining month’s price of dates on the primary tour in 14 years by the band’s authentic lineup. Whereas a basic assertion issued below the band’s identify collectively didn’t lay blame — saying “The band have made the troublesome determination to take a while away as a bunch” — Navarro laid it squarely at singer Perry Farrell‘s ft in a separate assertion issued on his personal social accounts and co-signed by the opposite two band members, saying Farrell is experiencing psychological well being points and saying they “hope he finds the assistance he wants.” He had earlier posted a photograph of himself holding his guitar with the message “Goodnight.”
In an Instagram story put up on Monday, Navarro apologized to the tour’s opening acts. “I wish to personally apologize to Love & Rockets and Crawlers and their crews for such a horrible consequence of what began off as an extremely magical tour,” he wrote. “Love & Rockets are heroes of mine and I’m so grateful I had the chance to carry out on the identical stage as them for so long as I did. It has really been an honor!”
