Jane's Addiction readies box set

Jane's Addiction plans to release a limited edition box set of rarities April 21. The set, "A Cabinet of Curiosities," will include three CDs and one DVD packaged in a wooden "cabinet," according to Pitchforkmedia.com.

The first CD features unreleased demos recorded from 1986-87. The second disc also includes demos, as well as previously unreleased live tracks and covers of songs originally recorded by the Grateful Dead, the Stooges and Led Zeppelin, among others. The second disc also features a live mash-up of sorts called "Bobhouse," that features the lyrics to Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" over the music from Bauhaus' "Burning From the Inside."

The third CD in the set features a live show recorded in December of 1990.

The DVD features the Jane's documentary "Soul Kiss," which has never been available on DVD. The disc also features the "Mountain Song" video that MTV banned, as well as various music videos and home movies, Pitchfork reported.

Jane's also is releasing 180-gram vinyl reissues of 1988's "Nothing's Shocking" and 1990's "Ritual De Lo Habitual." The records will be released through independent record stores on Record Store Day (4/18).

As previously reported, the original Jane's Addiction lineup will co-headline a tour with Nine Inch Nails this summer.
