Jane’s Addicted To Dough

“What can you say when you’re a whore?” – Jane’s Addiction

Well, I guess the answer to that timeless question is that you can say you’re going to team up with a soul-sucking corporate entity to promote your band. Jane’s Addiction, one-time musical pioneers with a punkish flair full of fuck you-swagger, is now in bed with Citi.

Yes, a fucking bank.

Perry Farrell and the boys decided to forgo the slow descent into total irrelevance by racing to the bottom with a bank. It’s embarrassing. Then again, if you’re a Citi cardholder you’ll have access to pre-sale tickets. YAY! BE SURE TO BRING YOUR DOCKERS YOU FILTHY FUCKFACE!

I know it’s nothing new for a once respected band to sell out, but something about this just feels so…desperate. It reminds me of stale sweat and broken dreams.

This is the saddest case of corporate whoring since Bob Dylan made those goddamn Cadillac commercials. I know a man’s gotta eat, but he doesn’t have to eat shit.
