Jane’s Addiction was formed when Farrell, the vocalist, embarked on a mission to create a new band after the demolition of his former band; Psi Com, which was a rock band that played goth music around the 1980s. Farrell was in the search for a bass player for a new band that he was aiming to form and he met Eric Avery. Having similar musical interests such as sharing a communal admiration for The Velvet Underground and Joy Division, these two artists bonded and Avery was asked to join the band. Even though he was never a permanent bassist, Avery did record numerous songs with the band. Farrell was able to hire a drummer when his sister asked him to consider her boyfriend at that time, Perkins. Even though Farrell was unsure about this step, he still auditioned him and asked him to come aboard. Soon after Perkins started rehearsals with the duo, he suggested his friend Navarro which led to the official formation of the band.
