Steve Baltin of Rolling Stone reports:

JANE'S ADDICTION will hit the road tomorrow (August 9th in Scranton, PA) with the Uproar Festival, joining ALICE IN CHAINS, COHEED AND CAMBRIA, WALKING PAPERS and more. As part of their set on the five-week tour, Jane's will perform a new song, 'Another Soulmate', which can be heard by clicking here.

"Being that we have a tour, I'm really happy that we have a good song that will serve as our calling card when we hit various cities," says frontman Perry Farrell. "Jane's is kind of known for long songs; being this is a one-song single, I thought it'd be interesting to try and write a BEATLES-esque short song that would be fast and furious and it would just be fun, dig it and move on, short attention span."

The quick-hitting track is unmistakably Jane Addiction, and was inspired by true events. "Etty [Lau Farrell, Perry's wife] had a girlfriend and this girlfriend, as all people do, really wanted a mate, and I think she shortchanged herself an awful lot in life," Farrell says. "She's a good-looking woman, she had a career, but when it came to love and romance, she sold herself short all the time and she would reach out to guys that we would scratch our head like, 'What is she doing with this guy?' She said, 'I feel like he's my soul mate.' Any time she'd meet a guy she'd say, 'I feel like he's my soul mate.' So I wrote this song."
