Smashing Pumpkins - East

[oliver170]

3:52 what does that voice in the background says?

[IssmeSouSou]

I think the start of this song influenced Jellybelly from the gravity demos. If you listen to the middle of Jellybelly [gravity demos only] you will hear what I'm talking about.

[sufferwithin2010]

The smashing pumpkins are cool. Sorry to all you sp fans out there but Billy Corgan is very gay.

[avedic]

@sufferwithin2010 what the hell is that even supposed to mean? what's wrong with being gay? besides, he kind of...isn't, so...

[975mas]

@sufferwithin2010 As far as I know, Billy isn't gay. He has a girlfriend.

[SirPandaDude]

@sufferwithin2010 He is not, but even if he was who the fuck cares. Wouldn't have made him less of a person in my eyes.

[g1bsonsg338]

the alternate version of east from the reel time sessions '89 is my favorite, the solo is killer

[shittybullshit]

they should totally release a CD or boxset or something of all the pre-gish material, I mean there are so many Pumpkins songs that you can't find on any release!

[TheKatefantastic]

the bass in this is the fucking bomb.

[stabbakop]

you wont see it now because their sound is so established, but you can definitely see why the pumpkins were compared to jane's addiction around the late 80's early 90's.

[solidtenpin]

Sounds as though parts of this song inspired some riffs from Cherub Rock.

[IssmeSouSou]

@solidtenpin You're right, same key! Good call.

[MrSirSnoozealot]

probably the best video on youtube. storied song. killer video. great job. 3 thumbs up.

[dougfresh514]

LOL d'arcy is wearing a blue velvet shirt!

[corkey04]

2:02 my, my, my!!! Billy looks sexy as hell with a ponytail!!!!!!! Ow!!!

[Rapidfire8]

hopefully they go back to this sort of sound in teargarden

[chrijhns]

awsome pic at 2:30!

[Reno9824]

HAhahaha 1:16 billy looks like a 40 year old woman. lol

[jackwhitefanatic]

loool! you're right

[XXXDDDXXXPPP]

lol nothing like those octave two-string chords, and the D,C,A,and G chords

basic pumpkins= the best pumpkins

[deadheadshaman]

the riff sounds really similar to cherub rock

[xXKittieCoreXx]

lol he looks like gerard way

[jackwhitefanatic]

absolutely love the pumpkins

so unique

*****

[TheMRious]

hahaha yeah! but Billy Corgan reminds me the singer of an animated band hiting strong here in Italy not being a million dollar production. Search for SWAVE IN THE FUTURE

[blakewood]

1988: "nothing ever changes" EP

1989: eponymous EP & "moon demo" EP

best pumpkins ever.

[mrzerodocfan]

Descendant of Corganism at Amazon

[joao1988pedro]

[unknownkingdom]

Wow, nice mullet Jimmy...

It makes me happy and sad looking at these pictures. I saw the Pumpkins at both KC shows this past monday and tuesday. It was a really good concert, but so far removed from their beginnings.

[ngaudio021]

lmao then billy's got that goofy lookin pony tail. very far from his shaved head of today.

[zerostellar24]

i'm glad people upload treasures like this. thanks.

[Floskeknosk]

I've uploaded some treasures too.

[back2thefutre]

I wish I was a pumpkin

[GilbertZangamarsh]

Fantastic pictures!

[jerseykid211]

It wasnt "Gish" material because of its amateur-like consistency and relatives I really liked this song.

[ebcina]

[nataschart]

[alfpoier1]
