  • Through Jane's Addiction, Porno for Pyros, Satellite Party, and much more, Perry Farrell is an important figure in alternative rock. Perry joined Matt Pinfield for this episode of New & Approved to discuss the many projects he has been working on.
    Matt first asks Perry about his guest appearance on Sleaford Mods' recent single "So Trendy." Perry then goes on to discuss what Jane's Addiction has been up to from touring to working on new music. By continuing to perform and record, Perry appreciates how the band is constantly growing and refining its sound.
    Kind Heaven Orchestra is another one of Perry's musical projects that we learn more about in this interview. He also dives deep into Pornos for Pyros, the devastating loss of his close friend Taylor Hawkins, his love of Lollapalooza, and much more.

    It sucks Porno for Pyros is doing a farewell tour and we don’t know if Janes for is next in line for retirement. Glad I saw Jane’s, and I’ll be going to LA for Porno next year.

      ​@@ExcitedAnacondaSnake-hg8ec the concept of artistic evolution is spoken of, and there, but how authentically? It requires adaptation that their personalities don't appear to be naturally exhibiting, so people get disappointed because it seems like the artists understand in a conceptual or cerebral way, what they've lived, but aren't quite living it anymore. They can look back and attempt the process again, but the process is the moment. They talk about those moments and the process like someone who has lived it, but I'd be showing people my asshole if I were him. Where's the facepaint? Where'd the joker go? And if change/age rules those out, where is the adaptation to an equivalently inspired representation of where he's at now? If he can't sing the way he used to, or can but just sounds different, or even if the energy of it, the essence, doesn't comport with what used to go on, he should sing differently than he used to, allow himself to lower his pitch and sing more masculine, maybe while embracing a chance to release the frustration of the difference between what he used to be and the limits since imposed by age, rearrangement of personal relationships (forced or not), the industry and its changes in grip or influence on them. He seems to whole-heartedly want to evolve musically as a performer and recording artist, as he did so well and convincingly, organically, for about 6 years initially. But thinking back on lived experience, of moments living it across a span, regardless of the insight and knowledge that it had all afforded him, is different than just living it again to a uniquely suitable and equivalent degree, anew. They'd have all done better in that regard if substances weren't such an access to living it in their heyday, and if they'd possessed, summoned or channeled the inspirational contortionism that acts like Pink Floyd displayed throughout the evolution of their career in the post-Barrett years.
      Artistic evolution is a fine value, but truly living that, to the extent that they originally did, can necessitate either deeply learned or innate capacity for adaptation, which they don't appear to embody l Ike they used to.
      The amount of creative force and spiritual depth they were collectively channeling/expressing is going to, by its very nature, be challenged by the winds of time and circumstance. They needed to adapt (and by Hard Charger, it was evident they weren't going to continue doing that; this is when they got corny and shit lacked thereafter, with the exception of some remarkable performances of their material up until that point). They still do need to adapt, if what they're communicating about creating, in the same vein as early Jane's and PfP, is important to them, whatever the genres may be, whether electronica, orchestral, acoustic, metal, ex poo experimental or punk, the latter two of which I see them as really lacking. That's been their stumbling block for a very long time. Even cutting his dreads was a disaster in regard to his movements and harnessing of energy during live performances. He retained that magic during Pyros first album and concerts, but started acting different with short hair thereafter. Now he resembles a gay interior decorator, which is ironic because posing as one got them their jam house before the band was even named. He wasn't posing as an aged one though; he had the dreads etc. He could adapt, massively, to his age now and incorporate it in his art, rather than battling it to preserve a semblance of what he remembers himself to have been in his comparatively brief prime. He is aging with "class", and I'm not alone in wishing that he'd instead just get ugly, strip, yet abandon his probably receding libido and present himself as a raw, punk victim of time. He's a visual/installation artist as well, and was never bad at accessorizing, so it isn't like presenting himself visually and explosively as a somewhat or subjectively repulsive GG Allin figure would be his only strength in accepting the limitations of his life that time has imposed, his age etc, and adapting to the moment again, with force, thereby tapping into what they original had and allowing naked inspiration to wrestle its way out of him again. I don't know that the brain chemistry or simple willingness to do that is in him though, with heavy drugs having been his portal to similar in the past. I've seen supposedly sober performances where he was on top of it again though, and if the intention is there fundamentally, I've not seen drugs (in this context), nor a lack thereof, render anyone genuine something that they aren't. If it's still Perry in there, he can do whatever the fuck he wants with his self-presentation and inspirational sources (as an artist and on stage) within the constraints of the industry. He only has to understand that, and adapt.
      I'm not saying he hasn't, but the results of his version of that are worlds away from what they used to be and have subsequently come up very damned short for many of his most dedicated influencees. He feels it himself too, even if he's content now (which we've no way of actually knowing). You can see it in his eyes, and in the optimism that he talks about these new ideas with, which has a sort of buried desperation about it. Because he knows that he isn't doing what made this whole shit pop off anymore.
      I think he could. It would be risking an embarrassing shitshow at this stage, but risking that was always integral to his exceptional outcomes, pre-cringe. I mean he doesn't even take his dick out anymore and he's gonna need to get used to that because far less people want to see it now. He was never Madonna, and ending up like her currently, because of an unwillingness to let go of his urge to procreate, would be tragic. He was always so much more than sex during their height. Adapt to what time has done, tap back into the crux and go off.

    I cannot wait for Jane Addiction to collab with Josh. That will be absolutely epic & glorious. If the planets aligned perfectly you would have Josh & Jane's Addiction writing songs together - it's almost too perfect.
