Jane's Addiction's "Mountain Song"

Hartbeat
About this episode

Cash in now One Song Nation, because this week Diallo & LUXXURY are

going deep on Jane’s Addiction’s “Mountain Song,” a song that helped

kick-start the wave of alternative music that defined the sound of the

late 80’s and 1990’s.  They break down the band’s place in the Los

Angeles music scene, how the band synthesized disparate influences -

from funk to metal to psychedelia - to create a cohesive and original

new sound, and the complex relationships between the band members that

ultimately lead to their breakup.
