==Release== "''Nothing's Shocking'' was released on August 23, 1988. Three singles were released to support the album, "Jane Says", "Mountain Song", and "Ocean Size." "Mountain Song" and Ocean Size" were both accompanied by music videos, however, [[MTV]] refused to air the former's [[music video]] owing to a scene containing graphic nudity.<ref>Mullen, p. 179</ref> Farrell decided to release the video commercially, adding twenty minutes of additional footage to create the ''Soul Kiss'' home video.<ref>Mullen, p. 180</ref> Lack of airplay on MTV and [[modern rock]] radio meant ''Nothing's Shocking'' sold only 200,000 to 250,000 copies in its first year of release.<ref>Mullen, p. 190</ref> By 1998, it had been [[music recording certification|certified]] platinum by the [[Recording Industry Association of America]] for shipments of one million copies in the United States.<ref name="RIAA"/> After the album's release, the band went on tour, opening for [[Iggy Pop]] and The [[Ramones]]. The tour helped bring attention to the band, who, by the end of the tour, were headlining clubs and theaters. ===2012 remaster=== A remastered edition of ''Nothing's Shocking'' was released on June 19, 2012 on a 24 karat gold disc.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.audiofidelity.net/content/janes-addiction-nothings-shocking|title=Jane's Addiction: Nothing's Shocking|publisher=Audio Fidelity|access-date=September 24, 2013}}</ref> Other than the addition of remastering production credits and a cardboard slipcase over the standard jewel case, the liner notes and artwork are almost identical to the original release. Likewise, the track list remained unchanged. The most notable artwork difference between the original and the remaster is in the color of band name typeface on the cover: the original is rendered in a deep teal color with black outline while the remaster features a light grey type with purple outline. Produced by Audio Fidelity, the remaster had a limited production run of 5,000 units. Each pressing came individually numbered.
