Everyone with even half a brain knows that Perry Farrell has devolved into a laughing stock over this last decade. First there was the Jane’s Addiction reunion (see the horrible theme song to “Entourage,” which is total L.A. douche-rock), then there was Satellite Party, a garish melange of unintentionally hilarious album covers and painful stadium rock lighter-anthems and now to add to the list of excruciating missteps is Farrell’s connection to the tweener-goth nonsense of “Twilight.”
According to Vulture, the lost-in-the-woods singer is writing a crucial song for the movie adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s emo-dramatic vampire saga, and what’s worse, he’s actually proud of it.
Hilariously titled, “Going All The Way (Into the Twilight)” (ha ha ha ha), the solo song will be mixed by the great Alan Moulder (Ride, My Bloody Valentine, and Swervedriver), who will at least make the sure-to-be turd sound like a million bucks.
To give the delusional Farrell some credit, at least he knows people don’t want him to go off at length anymore. “I used to work on a record for, like, three and a half years and then people would only listen to or play two songs. I’d go, ‘What happened to the other eleven songs?’ So now I go, ‘Here’s one, here’s one, here’s one,’ and they love them all.” Suuuure buddy, if you say so.
