<a href="spotify:artist:2DS5RPK5A2GQTucYlgsQdE">Perry Farrell</a>'s post-Jane's Addiction band, Porno for Pyros, followed the same path as his previous band, combining art rock, punk, heavy metal, and funk into one shrieking whole. On their self-titled 1993 debut, <a href="spotify:artist:2DS5RPK5A2GQTucYlgsQdE">Farrell</a>'s pretensions got out of hand at times, resulting in some ridiculously self-absorbed conceptual pieces sitting next to some straightforward rockers and pop songs; it sold well at first, but soon slipped down the charts. While he prepared new Porno material in 1994, <a href="spotify:artist:2DS5RPK5A2GQTucYlgsQdE">Farrell</a> returned to the organization of Lollapalooza -- the traveling rock festival he conceived -- for the first time since 1992. The band released Good Gods Urge in 1996.
Although Good Gods Urge was a successful release from both an artistic and musical standpoint, the album disappeared from the charts shortly after its release. On the album's ensuing tour, former <a href="spotify:artist:0z6zRFzl5njXWLVAisXQBz">Minutemen</a>/<a href="spotify:artist:6MIbrfpc9aH6gsEl2yep68">fIREHOSE</a> bassist <a href="spotify:artist:1MGR2y3msa1wBK06SSUNaf">Mike Watt</a> filled in for the departed Lenoble, and to the delight of longtime Jane's Addiction fans, guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:3JTMBiL0Bmrxv41WJ8V8cu">Dave Navarro</a> was a special surprise guest on select dates as well. After the album's ensuing tour wrapped up in early 1997 (and a pair of Porno for Pyros songs appeared on the motion picture soundtracks for The Cable Guy and Private Parts), <a href="spotify:artist:2DS5RPK5A2GQTucYlgsQdE">Farrell</a> promptly ended the group, as he focused on a solo recording career as well as sporadic Jane's Addiction reunion shows. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine & Greg Prato, Rovi
