His band Jane's Addiction helped grease the alternative-rock skids as the '80s hit the '90s, and Perry Farrell--pushing 50--now aims for a new decade and another century. The ethereal artist's revelry of contributors to his latest project includes one-named artists Flea and Fergie, Peter Hook (ex-New Order), and a creepy posthumous appearance by Jim Morrison. That's right: leave it to Farrell, creator of rock festival Lollapalooza and some of his genre's most impulsive music, to dust off the Lizard King, whose healthy vocal slinks and slides beneath the baiting, rhythmic lyric "Just try and stop us/We're going to love
