The REAL Smashing Pumpkins. The band isn't bad these days but nothing beats the original. I believe Billy should have changed the name since he "reformed" the band with the others not being original members but I bet he kept the name because the name holds a lot of magic and could help sales.
The Smashing Pumpkins only have a few god albums Gish Siamese Dream. Pisces Iscariot. Melancholy And The Infinite Sadness. Adore. Machina / The Machines Of God. Machina2 / The Friends And Enemies Of Modern Music. Rarities And B-Sides. Rotten Apples And Judas O. Zeitgeist. American Gothic. Teargarden By Kaleidescope.
the pumpkins are possibly the most underrated rock and roll band ever. their first 3 albums are incredible. That being Gish, Siamese Dream, and Mellon Collie.
I just have to say, The Pumpkins are by far the greatest band on this Earth and STILL are. Teargarden and Zeitgeist kicked major ass. I love everything that man releases. I do miss Chamberlin, though. But, that night mare will ride on, regardless! (haha line drop, I know)
@ContraCommando Back when SP was a good band... Billy was hot, D'Arcy and James were a cute couple (IMO)... I wish I was born at least EARLIER than 1998! Auuuggghhh!! :(
@ContraCommando Stop it, they still rock just look at "As Rome Burns," "Tom Tom," "My love Is Winter." Gish and Tear Garden are in many ways alike if you think about the dreamy sound of songs like Rhinoceros and Song For A son. In fact play Space Boy and Song For A Son back to back and you will make a weird connection.
@nicholsjoshua15 Wanna know another weird SP song connection? Listen to Try, Try, Try and then Perfect back to back, it'll trip you out dude. From one fan to another.
Cant stand the shit that is being called music today. I wish there was a station where it just played Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Stone Temple Pilots, AIC, The chilli peppers, and basically anything thats GOOD music. Cant wait for this decade of shitty music to be done!!
@ericmeloman85 there is a station, it is called an I pod, my friend, and you can hear all the bands that are the enlightnment to your soul...cool beans
wowowow yankeesarethebest just becasue you dont like a band dosent mean there not good every band (expect for a few) work extremely hard to get were they are
I love music from the 90's and everything. Among them would be the Smashing Pumpkins. I also do not believe that all nowdays music is horrible, though it is true not all of it is as good.
Saw the Pumpkins live for the 1st time at a local club in South Beach called Washington Square in 1990 something. Club was about 800 sq ft. Packed!! Bartenders sprayed cool water on us as we moshed (everyone in the club was moshing). I had my hands all over this cute blonde from out of town (I think) and I stold Darcys Heineken bottle from stage. Still remember the look Darcy gave me as I walked away with her drink. Sorry! LOL
@GaryLyons No way, that is awesome!! You must have seen me with that chick. LOL. Chaninsaw Kittens were the worst opening band. No one moved. LOL. That is great that you were there!! I got my Mission to Mars t-shirt at that concert.
this is my favorite band of all time and i adore billy corgan i have been a devoted fan since gish, but i also realize that every generation says the same about the next and great music is eventually lost and forgotten with time..... this makes me cry every time i think it :(
wtf happened people just play bullshit these days has america forgotten what music is? because it is not this yo yo yo hip hop shit. this makes me wonder.if it were not for my sis listening to stuff like this when i was small and me hanging out with here and hearing this id probably end up not knowing what music is. so id like to thank my sis ,smashing pumpkins,radiohead,tool,nirvana and some others.god where have times gone?i was born in 93 and im glad because the 90's was the shit. fuck yeah!!
i was born in 93 to and i recently got bigger into the smashing pumpkins 8 months ago and now i know half of their songs i started listeining to them because of Buleet with butterfly wings a few years ago i heard BWBW
great to here. one of thier first songs i remember hearing was adore and appel+ oranjes.i started liking the band after hangin with my big sis whom i looked up to at an early age and im completetly greatful that i know what music is ,was,and will allways be.
You are so very right! "gish" is unforgettable, and should never be overlooked by these "mainstream" morons who only appreciate the fad of the time and not the brilliance of extraordinarily gifted minds..........
The early Smashing Pumpkins sound is beyond "grunge", its timeless. They created their own rock genre which is what all the great bands do. Gish was supreme and Siamese Dream played out like an extension of Gish. Then the band lost the hunger...at least in my opinion. Jimmy Chamberlin is the shit!
Oh man I'm not even a kid of the nineties (I caught the tale end of it) and I can't believe this stuff used to be mainstream! Rock is absolutely garbage now, not to mention the rest of popular music...like there's not even a promising young backlash that's gonna take over the radio again, there's nothing of the sort! Anything you could put on college rock for example SUCKS
same here born 95 and i love the pumpkins i mean im mostly into classic rock but the pumpkins are awsome i cant imagine life where this was mainstream everything now sucks
95 muahahahaha young buck. That was the year mellon collie came out and it was huge. I was 13, took a week of begging before my mom bought me the album hahahahah.
no doubt i dont even listen to the radio anymore.. i just pop the ipod in.. cant flip that shit on with out hearing some lame fall out boy.. talentless.. computer generated.. bullshit these days.. its awful that music came to this.. if u can even still call it music..
yeah but music is really in bad state these days.. like no instruments just computer generated bs is so fucking dumb.. like rap.. just beats.. there is no music in it.
@yankeesarethebest224 Keep in mind that some 90s alternative bands used computer generated sounds. Half of Radiohead's OK Computer and Kid A were computer generated.
I can't Believe this magic was made in 91 , These guys r already legends and how they cant be recignized by some ppl blows my mind...not near enough credit...All stupid pop fag bands who sing and make me wanna punch my radio.. And Gish was SOLID
The REAL Smashing Pumpkins. The band isn't bad these days but nothing beats the original. I believe Billy should have changed the name since he "reformed" the band with the others not being original members but I bet he kept the name because the name holds a lot of magic and could help sales.
