Oh my god! That is so awful! I hate it when girls like bands that I like. Also, I hate it when girls like bands that I don't like. Life is so unfair. I was "alternative" before there was a record section for it. Honest.

i guess that's a reason a person who lived through certain times might like a band (see: your boomer-approved canon) but i don't see why it's a valid argument for any band in THESE times.

When I first heard them as a lad: OMG this band is epic mindblowing holy shit!
Then I got older and "coolerl": Wannabe Zep hippie dumbasses
Then I got older still: Loveably wacko alt-rock dinosaurs actually has some pretty great song, now find their hippie doofy crap kinda charming.
also, GREAT live band, if you ever saw them back in the day, really amazing.

I saw the Janes in 1988 and it was mind blowing. They peeled the paint off the walls and small-town me had never seen anything like it. I saw them again in 1990 on the Ritual tour and they were...sagging, indulgent, and basically, a bad cartoon. Navarro never had the funk he thought he had, and that sure showed when he joined the Peppers.
Much of Nothing's Shocking will always remain classic to me because I can't separate it from my college years--the incredible anticipation I had for that album to come out and how it more than delivered. And as donut alluded to, my entire fraternity was batshit about 'em.

About that reunion -- sorry "relapse" album they did.. i heard a few songs off it, and it isn't bad really... The one radio hit was actually quite nice! it actually removes some of the things I didn't like about them initially. That said, the album isn't anything that's stood the test of a year, much less stood the test of time.
Since the initial break-up of Jane's, I think this is where Mr. Garrison speaks wisdom, in relation to Mr. Peri-Pheral, and his motivations (which isn't exactly uncommon for greater bands, granted.)
