That song is on the Porno For Pyros 2nd album, "Gods Good Urge." There's
quiet a few interviews from the late 80's where various band members mention
Bauhaus and Love and Rockets were a huge influence on Jane's.

BTW, in addition to L&R playing the Coachella Festival here in California in
a cuople weeks, they are also going to be playing one of the days of the
Summer Lollapalooza fest in Chicago and it appears they'll have a full scale
Summer tour of mid sized venues in support of a brand new studio album.

I think that fish is now dead in the water. The band or project or whatever
showed some serious promise prior to the album being released as evidenced
by a handful of well-received shows in Hollywood, but once the album was
released to almost zero sales and the subsequent tour barely made it through
some shaky club dates and festival appearances, it was obvious that when
guitarist Nuno Bettencourt bailed unexpectedly, Perry wasn't going to be
able to hold it together.
