Jane’s Addiction

On November 8, 1997, Jane’s Addiction performed a rehearsal for their song "Chip Away" on *Saturday Night Live*, showcasing their presence in the rock scene during this era. This performance occurred shortly after the release of their album *Relapse*, which came out on March 12, 1997. *Relapse* was the band's first album of new material since their 1990 release *Ritual de lo Habitual*, and it marked a pivotal point in their career as they aimed to re-establish themselves after a lengthy hiatus. Despite being somewhat less commercially successful than their earlier works, *Relapse* featured a blend of hard rock and alternative music that remained true to their essence. Interestingly, this SNL performance is notable not only for its timing but also for highlighting the band's return to a live audience setting, which was vital for the reassertion of their influence in the rock genre during the late 1990s.
