Jane's Addiction
📀 Nothing's Shocking
#HardRock #AlternativeRock #AlternativeMetal

35 years ago Jane's Addiction from Los Angeles, #USA, released their debut studio album.

#JanesAddiction had a cult following at the time, most of the songs in Nothing's Shocking were already known by their fan base (the band's previous 1987 realease was in fact a legendary and one of my all time favorite live recording).
That's partly why this album became the first labeled as Alternative Rock / Metal to gain huge commercial success selling 1million in the US only !

The single "Jane Says" (inspired, as the band's name, by Perry Farrel's housemate Jane) became their signature song.

Fantastic album ❤️‍🔥🤘
