Limited Edition Clear with Orange Splatter Vinyl LP!
PFP's First Collection of Hits & Rarities!
Includes 3 New Recordings + a Daniel Avery Remix of "Pets"!
Reflecting on one of the wildest creative journeys in music history, alternative rock luminaries Porno For Pyros excitedly present their first-ever greatest hits collection, Pyrotechnics: Porno For Pyros' Latest & Greatest, exclusively on vinyl. Limited to only 5,700 copies, the record is pressed on special 1-LP clear vinyl with orange splatter and new artwork. Speaking to every era of the band, Pyrotechnics notably collates classic songs alongside new material.
The iconic collective—Perry Farrell [vocals] and Stephen Perkins [drums] of Jane's Addiction alongside Peter DiStefano [guitar], Martyn Lenoble [bass], and additional bassist Mike Watt—have outfitted this body of work with signature staple anthems a la "Pets" and "Tahitian Moon." They expanded the set with three recent reunion recordings: "Fingernail," "Little Me," and "Agua." The latter suite of songs notably marked the group's first music since 1997. Plus, Pyrotechnics also features a brand new Remix of the hit "Pets" by Daniel Avery and a cover of the Lou Reed classic "Satellite of Love."
Porno For Pyros left an indelible imprint on alternative rock with an influence that has only magnified over the last three decades. As the story goes, the group materialized out of Los Angeles in 1992, weaving a tapestry of climactic rock and otherworldly funk threaded together with seductive psychedelia, off-kilter Latin stylings, and evocative lyrical conjurations. Their 1993 self-titled debut, Porno For Pyros, bowed at #3 on the Billboard 200, housed the gold-certified "Pets," and claimed a place in the alt-rock pantheon. 1996 saw the musicians dive even deeper down the rabbit hole with Good God's Urge, highlighted by "Tahitian Moon" and "Kimberly Austin." An impressive cohort of guests partook in this sonic ritual, including Flea of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dave Navarro of Jane's Addiction, and Daniel Ash, David J, and Kevin Haskins of Bauhaus, Love and Rockets, and The Bubbleman. The group broke up a long hiatus with one-off appearances—whether it be at Farrell's birthday or the Lolla2020 livestream. Finally, they returned in 2023 with a handful of tunes and tours.
