Nothing's Shocking
''Nothing's Shocking'' is the second release and first studio album by the American rock band Jane's Addiction, released on August 23, 1988 through Warner Bros. Records. ''Nothing's Shocking'' was well received by critics upon release and is often cited as the band's best album. Despite this, it peaked at number 103 on the ''Billboard'' 200. The single "Jane Says" reached number six on the ''Billboard'' Modern Rock Tracks in 1988. The album was ranked #312 on ''Rolling Stones "500 Greatest Albums of All-Time." ''Nothing's Shocking'' is also included in the book ''1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die''.
==Recording==
Warner Bros. gave Jane's Addiction a list of producers to choose from. The group chose Dave Jerden, whose work as engineer on the David Byrne and Brian Eno album ''My Life in the Bush of Ghosts'' frontman Perry Farrell appreciated. Jerden said he "jumped" at the chance to work with the group.〔Mullen, p. 165〕
During the recording sessions, Farrell stated he wanted 50 percent of the band's publishing royalties for writing the lyrics, as well as quarter of the remaining half for writing music, adding up to 62.5 percent total. Bassist Eric Avery said he and the other band members, guitarist Dave Navarro and drummer Stephen Perkins, were stunned by Farrell's demands.〔Mullen, p. 166〕 Farrell refused to compromise. One day Jerden drove up to the studio to find Farrell, Navarro, and Perkins leaving; Farrell told him that the band had broken up and that there would be no record. Warner Bros. called an emergency meeting to resolve the situation. Farrell got the royalty percentage he sought, and the other band members received 12.5 percent each. Avery said the incident had a profound effect on the band, creating an internal fracture.〔Mullen, p. 168〕
Not long after the royalties dispute, Farrell and Avery (who had formed the band together) had a falling out. This was the result of Avery's newfound sobriety as well as an incident where Farrell believed that the bassist had drunkenly tried to pick up his girlfriend. Tensions existed in the band between all the members during recording except for Perkins, who got along with Navarro, Avery and Farrell.〔Mullen, p. 169–71〕
