Boy, has it been an enormous month for Jane’s Dependancy. Final week, when a bunch of non-metal heads in all probability discovered 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 monitor, titled “True Love,” is a eulogy for the band, it positive is an ironic one. “Once I first felt real love, I used to be very younger/I attempted to explain it to my mates/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. In accordance with NME, the band debuted the tune dwell in London earlier this 12 months and have performed it at a handful of exhibits since. It was presumably scheduled to come back out this week whatever the combat, and the band (or their managers) determined to not let it crumble into obscurity. The artists have been completely silent in regards to the launch on social media, nevertheless, so we could by no means know.
That is the second single the band’s unique lineup has launched since reuniting, following “Imminent Redemption” (one other ironic title on reflection) this previous August. The identical month, Navarro advised Rolling Stone {that a} new album was “greater than seemingly going to occur.” “I imply, we now have 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 type of keep out of that stuff. What issues to me most is that these things is on vinyl.”
Sadly, Navarro could not be capable 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 might be left craving to be once more together with his real love stays to be seen.
On Monday, the singer issued a press release of his personal in regards to the combat. “This weekend has been extremely troublesome and after having the time and area to replicate, it is just proper that I apologize to my bandmates, particularly Dave Navarro, followers, household and mates for my actions throughout Friday’s present,” Farrell advised Selection. “Sadly, my breaking level resulted in inexcusable conduct, and I take full accountability for the way I selected to deal with the state of affairs.”
