Thirteen years after emerging from the studio with RITUAL DE LO HABITUAL, Jane's Addiction returned in 2003 with STRAYS. Unlike many comebacks, Jane's chemistry remains, even with new bassist Chris Chaney stepping in for founding member Eric Avery. With Perry Farrell in fine fettle and legendary producer Bob Ezrin aboard to oversee this highly risky project, the band's gamble has paid off in spades. Despite Jane's extended hiatus, the group's aggression hasn't abated at all, whether it's Dave Navarro's crunching guitar behind the stomping opening cut "True Nature," the mosh-ready groove "Just Because," or the ultra-funky "Wrong Girl," echoing Navarro's time in the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Unlike so much of the aggro-rock this quartet influenced in their aftermath, part of JA's magic was its ease with more eclectic fare. Some of this outing's more interesting moments include "Everybody's Friend," an acoustic-soaked ode to a lost chum, and "The Riches," which draws from a palette of spiky hooks and Chaney's fat basslines that give way to an ethereal outro of chiming guitar and swirling keyboards. With only their third studio album (!), Jane's Addiction makes a triumphant comeback that feels as if they never really left.
