Title: Excellence in their return
Review: Most bands go away for a while, their members start up solo projects, and when those suck, they get back together. Then they put out a cruddy album, tour and make money, go into the studio with a bunch of better songwriters, and become pop icons.If your brain is thinking "Aerosmith" right now, you're correct.However, Jane's Addiction is NOT Aersosmith.For a reunion-type album, this is excellent. "To Match The Sun", "Strays", "Suffer Some" - this album is full of great songs. Not as Jane's-y as the other two studio albums, mind you, but Jane's nonetheless. Not just because Perry Farrell is singing; the writing somehow sounds like a more-mature Jane's Addiction. And make no mistake, I absolutely loved their other two albums. This is a great surprise, as I was expecting a less-than-valiant effort from them, but now I find myself eagerly anticipating anything else they put out.
