Following an onstage fight that apparently broke up Jane’s Addiction, three of the four members are making new music together. Bassist Eric Avery, guitarist Dave Navarro, and drummer Stephen Perkins are recording new songs minus singer Perry Farrell.

Back in September, Jane’s Addiction made headlines when Farrell got into a physical altercation with Navarro during a show in Boston, at one point punching the guitarist onstage. As the two musicians were being separated, it appeared that Avery landed a few blows on Farrell. And a later report from a crew member revealed that Farrell punched Navarro again — this time in the face — backstage shortly thereafter.

The rest of the band’s tour was canceled, and while an official announcement was never made, Navarro suggested that the band had broken up in an Instagram post, saying, “I’m gutted that things ended this way.”

Now, Avery, Navarro, and Perkins...

Three months after a Jane’s Addiction reunion tour abruptly ended following an onstage fight, the band appears to be back in the studio together without singer Perry Farrell.

Eric Avery shared video from a recent recording session where he was adding bass to Stephen Perkins’ drumming. “Writing some more new lines to some of Stephens drumming. Look forward to getting some Mr [Dave] Navarro on them. 2025!,” Avery wrote in the caption; Perkins also shared Avery’s video on his Instagram (via Stereogum).

Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro is absent from Ink Master Season 16 on Paramount+ despite being one of the reality series' most iconic faces, leaving some questioning the reasons for his exit.

Navarro boarded Ink Master as a host and judge for the first 13 seasons before stepping back to the role of "Master of Chaos" for Season 14.

This new role saw him pass hosting duties to singer Joel Madden and instead twists and game-changing bombs with each episode as "Master of Chaos."

Donald Trump loves music. It does not love him back. But neither fact has ever been more obvious than this week, when he made his DJ debut.

Who the hell wants to hear questions?” Then he just stood there frozen in a 40-minute K-hole,...

Embattled singer Perry Farrell appears to be on shaky ground with his bandmates both past and present.

Adding to the fallout from his onstage fight with guitarist Dave Navarro and the possible disbandment of Jane’s Addiction, one of Farrell’s former bandmate in Porno for Pyros, bassist Martyn LeNoble, has posted an eviscerating takedown of the singer and his wife Etty Lau Farrell on social media.

“I can say, unequivocally, that Perry has been the worst frontman I’ve ever worked with,” LeNoble wrote in series of posts on X/Twitter Sunday night (September 29th). “Always a kind word, followed by shitty actions. The fish rots from the head down. I still don’t understand how he channeled some of those great lyrics & vocals on the first two Jane’s records.”

LeNoble went on to cite other “difficult” singers he’s worked with, including the late Mark Lanegan, Scott Weiland,...

On the heels of Jane’s Addiction canceling their tour following an onstage physical altercation between bandmates, guitarist Dave Navarro has hinted that the legendary alt-rock band is over. The revelation comes via a new Instagram post in which Navarro laments, “I am gutted that things ended this way.”

Last Friday (September 13th), singer Perry Farrell shoved and punched Navarro onstage during a show in Boston. As the frontman was being pulled off the guitarist, it appeared that bassist Eric Avery landed a few punches on Farrell. The incident resulted in Jane’s Addiction canceling the remainder of their tour with Love and Rockets. A statement from Navarro, Avery, and drummer Stephen Perkins cited Farrell’s erratic behavior and “mental health difficulties,” while Farrell himself apologized to Navarro and the band’s fans.

On Wednesday (September 18th), in the wake of the tour cancellation, Jane’s Addiction released the new single “True Love.

The speed with which press cycles churn these days, it can be hard for anyone to maximize their time in the spotlight. So, it’s hard to begrudge Jane’s Addiction for taking this opportunity — two days after canceling a big reunion tour following an onstage altercation between bandmates Perry Farrell and Dave Navarro — to release a new single.

The track is called “True Love,” and the band actually debuted it live over a year ago near the end of a show in Bakersfield, California. At the time, the band’s onstage lineup featured Farrell,...

Jane’s Addiction have released the new song “True Love” — the second single from the band’s reunited classic lineup.

The track comes at an awkward time following the cancellation of the group’s remaining US tour dates due to singer Perry Farrell’s concerning behavior toward his bandmates. The turmoil culminated with Farrell throwing a punch at guitarist Dave Navarro during an onstage confrontation at a show in Boston last week, leading to Farrell being subdued by his stage crew and bandmates.

It was announced on Monday (September 16th) that the rest of the US tour would be cancelled, with Navarro and fellow Jane’s Addiction members Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins citing “a continuing pattern of behavior and the mental health difficulties of our singer Perry Farrell” in a joint statement. Farrell subsequently issued an apology to his bandmates and the fans.

On Friday, a Jane’s Addiction concert ended suddenly in Boston after frontman Perry Farrell punched guitarist Dave Navarro in an onstage outburst.

In video footage of the Boston show that fans had captured, Farrell was in the middle of performing “Ocean Size” when he started grunting and yelling at the crowd, “F—- you.”

The singer approached Navarro, shoving him. Farrell momentarily backs up but then tried to confront the guitarist again while Navarro calmly attempted to create space between the two with his arm.

Updated with Farrell statement: Jane’s Addiction frontman Perry Ferrell apologized this morning for a onstage confrontation he initiated with the band’s Dave Navarro in Boston on Friday.

In a statement issued to multiple outlets, Ferrell said, “This weekend has been incredibly difficult and after having the time and space to reflect, it is only right that I apologize to my bandmates, especially Dave Navarro, fans, family and friends for my actions during Friday’s show.

After the dark comedy Come to Daddy, New Zealand director Ant Timpson travels back to his home country with lead actor Elijah Wood for Bookworm, an adventure designed for all ages. In his introduction at the opening of Montreal’s Fantasia Film Festival, Timpson cited 1970s family movies as an inspiration and admitted he wanted nothing more than to make a good, entertaining time for audiences. That aim is apparent in every moment of Bookworm, whose odd-couple pairing of an estranged father and his precocious daughter on a camping trip gone wrong feels engineered to be a broad crowd-pleaser. But Timpson, along with co-writer Toby Harvard, prefer to take the easy way for achieving their goals, the film leaning into dated comedy and a relentless charm offensive that makes its efforts too strained to fully embrace.

The film starts with Mildred (Nell Fisher), an 11-year-old girl who spends most of...

While “Taxi Driver” and “Raging Bull” basically put Martin Scorsese and Paul Schrader on the map as massive cinematic forces and “The Last Temptation of Christ” continues to have a strong cult following, as well as an early Criterion Collection release (Spine #70 to be exact), their final collaboration, 1999’s “Bringing Out the Dead,” starring Nicolas Cage and Patricia Arquette, still has yet to receive the praise and recognition of their previous works.

Paramount, the studio behind the film, seems to want to change that this upcoming September, as they plan on giving the psychological drama a 4K Uhd Blu-Ray release to coincide with its 25th anniversary. In reappraisal of this unfairly maligned capper to a multi-decade partnership, IndieWire lists our reasons for why “Bringing Out the Dead” is worth bringing out of the shadows.

Some ideas are outlandish enough to change everything. This is especially the case for one of the world’s most famous and culturally impactful musical festivals, Lollapalooza, birthed in 1991 as a farewell for Jane’s Addiction frontman Perry Farrell. The festival quickly became a traveling showcase of ragtag bands and artists ranging from alt-rock, punk, metal and hip-hop that managed to define a generation steeped in radical counterculture.

Director Michael John Warren

Paramount+’s three-part documentary, Lolla: The Story of Lollapalooza, takes an in-depth look at the festival’s journey through three decades. Through a prime interview with Farrell, archival footage and subsequent interviews with members from Nine Inch Nails, Living Color, L7, Metallica, Ice-t and other legendary musical pioneers, the documentary highlights how Lollapalooza aimed to push the boundaries of the alternative music scene while also battling the challenges of succumbing to the pressures of fame only to evolve into what it is today,...

Guitarist Dave Navarro was back playing with Jane’s Addiction at London’s Bush Hall on Thursday (May 23rd), marking his return to the stage after a battle with long Covid kept him sidelined for a few years.

In 2022, original bassist Eric Avery rejoined the legendary alt-rock band after more than a decade away, but with Navarro sitting out, it prevented a reunion of the classic Jane’s Addiction lineup. Queens of the Stone Age’s Troy Van Leeuwen and former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Josh Klinghoffer had filled in the past couple years.

On Thursday night, Navarro, Avery, singer Perry Farrell, and drummer Stephen Perkins played their first show together since 2010.

In addition to Navarro’s return, the concert featured the debut of a new song called “Imminent Redemption.” The band also played “True Love,” another new tune that they unveiled in concert last year.
