DAVE NAVARRO’s band THE PANIC CHANNEL are recording and releasing their next album without the help of a record label.

The former Jane’s Addiction rocker is keen to break free from record company “slavery.”

Navarro says, “Our plan is to write, record, mix and make the music available online, DIY-style.

“We have an opportunity to do what we always wanted – end our personal slavery to a failing corporate industry that is on its last legs and gasping for air.”
