Jane's Addiction. The Great Escape Artist.

Great bands break rules, but legends write their own. JANE’S ADDICTION – back again with The Great Escape Artist, their first studio album in eight years – have actually written the rule book for alternative music and culture through a combination of genre-defying classic songs (“Jane Says”, “Stop!”, the HBO Entourage theme song, “Superhero”) and a cinematic live experience. Their songs serve as the Ten Commandments for alt rock, inspiring an entire generation of bands such as Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam and Tool. When the Los Angeles quartet came along, they merged alternative and rock like no one before, becoming the first alternative rock band, creating a new sound and attitude. Acclaimed for their swirling sonic symphony and unique studio alchemy, Jane’s Addiction have sold over seven million records in North America alone. They’ve also garnered Grammy nominations and spearheaded the movement of modern American festival culture by launching and headlining Lollapalooza.
