Perry Farrell has been the frontman and big creative force behind several alternative rock bands, and was also the founder of Lollapalooza. He joined Psi Com in 1983, and they released the Psi Com EP in 1985, only to split up later that year. Jane's Addiction followed shortly thereafter, releasing their first album, the live self-titled album Jane's Addiction in 1987 on indie label XXX Records. Warner Bros. won a bidding war to sign the band, and in 1988 they released their first studio album
