Been Caught Spinning
Confessions of an iconoclast rocker turned electro-popster
By: Alex Rendon
This is an expert from the CL56 interview with Perry Farrell. The full story will be available March 23rd.
The Jane's reunion studio time included an appearance by NIN overlord Trent Reznor, and resulted in just a handful of tracks rather than a full album. “I don’t think you or I have sat down and listened to an entire record in a long time,” Farrell explains. A believer in the single—and the short attention span of contemporary audiences—he says he personally gets most of his music through blogs or online music stores.
Neither is he a big fan of lengthy studio sessions. Although he “works at songs every day,” and twice has spent three and a half years on a record, he now says he doesn't believe in “taking a whole year and not going out and performing.”
Farrell was candid about how the reunion went. “I thought things would go much smoother,” he said. “But we did record some really good songs.”
