Ballz posted:Mellon Collie and Machina are two completely different albums what the gently caress even is a "sequel" to both of them? They are the last two albums with Jimmy and James both in the lineup, and the last time Billy was culturally relevant. He's hoping he can "the secret" that second part into being true again

That video just gets more and more cringingly embarassing the further on it goes. Don't put your kids in the video. Don't put your amateur wrestlers in the video. Don't leave the gaff marks on the floor because you don't wanna spend $300 having someone paint them out. Don't put gaff marks on the floor if everyone's going to miss them anyway. And for the love of everything good in the world, if those two lovely singers who've been all over the last three pumpkins albums haven't hosed you by now Billy, they aren't going to. Stop putting them in everything. That man needs to be mercilessly bullied.until.he starts having a sense of perspective again.

Ratios and Tendency posted:I feel like I need to design a Smashing Pumpkins fan recovery program for y'all. They loving suck and have for decades now. Think about how lovely RHCP or Weezer currently are and reflect on the fact that SP are way worse and more embarrassing. Weezer and RHCP never released anything beyond "ok I guess". RHCP's whole gimmick is being embarassing and Weezer are, well, fuckin Weezer.

Baron von Eevl posted:I think that was kind of a thing with James at first; I know with the first reunion tour it was just the albums he played on, and I think the next tour the only song from the Jamesless years was Tiberius. Is there anything Tool can't manage to make worse somehow?

BraveUlysses posted:I'm at the sp show rn and Jane's addiction is the opener and it's loving awfulllllk How many actual members of Jane's addiction are actually left in the band now? From memory Eric Avery quit three seconds after they reformed, Perry Farrell got injured during the first song, and didn't Navarro say something about quitting as well?

BeastOfExmoor posted:Yea, this is roughly my opinion. The weirdest thing to me about it is that its not only a Smashing Pumpkins album, but is billed as a sequel to MCIS and Machina when it sounds absolutely nothing like either of those albums. If it'd been a Billy solo album then sure, whatever, but it doesn't sound like the rest of the band was even in the same zipcode when this was recorded? Billy is hoping it's a financial sequel

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Wait, who's this? I'm not arguing your claim, I guess I just don't follow who's into this poo poo. It's always a safe bet that anyone who held a guitar before 1990 did statutory rapes on the daily. The easy way to remember is "holding a Strat? Done a stat".

Djarum posted:I think Art is the only member of the band from when they are popular. I don't have first hand knowledge but supposedly he is a huge rear end in a top hat and a pain in the rear end to work with. I imagine there's a whole different set of pressures loving up the dynamic when you're relying on the income from it to pay your mortgage and you have a whole bunch of industry fucks trying to ruin everything that made you successful in the first place because they're blinded by greed and stupid as hell.

Holy poo poo Billy posted that there's a reissue box set of the Zwan album coming. On one hand that would be rad, on the other he posts something that everyone wants that never ends up happening like once a week.

syntaxfunction posted:Devin Townsend is the superior pale white, tall as gently caress Nosferatu musician. I'm sure Devin Townsend is a less embarassing person then Billy, and he probably writes better songs than current pumpkins. However, no one who doesn't mod an incel subreddit has ever heard of him. Billy C is responsible for 2 very good rock albums, 1 great album, and 2 of the most significant in the entire history of the genre. At least pick someone relevant to the conversation m8

CherryCola posted:Jumping in here to ONCE AGAIN say that Empires would be actually an okay song without the backing vocals. I’ve been saying this about every single new song I’ve heard from them. Is it just me??? Completely changes the vibe for me. I really don't understand this cringe rawk mom backing vocals thing these dudes get into when all their bandmates leave. Jim Ward did the same thing on the new Sparta album and it's awful

A 45 second clip of Billy Corgan farting on the Joke Rogan show with guest farts from Willow Smith would be better than anything on atum if he just let Jimmy do his actual thing on it.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I remember having a dream back in the late 90s where Billy explained his shaved head. He said "God tells me what music to write, sends like a divine radio signal right into my brain. Sometimes, it's scratchy, so I shaved my head to get better reception." It's because he has male pattern baldness op

The best thing about each new Pumpkins album is it makes the album three or so before seem infinitely better in comparison. Oceania has now reached "good" status.

Baron von Eevl posted:Yeah, I think Jeff knows where his bread is buttered and that Billy's happy to keep working with him. I remember around when James was first coming back there was some talk of Billy and Jeff doing their own thing, I think they just decided gently caress it let's have 3 guitars instead. I think Billy just really likes working with Jeff. "Yes Billiam that's a great idea". "Wow how do you still write banger after banger after all these years?" "Whoah, Butch Vig DID steal your guitar sound for Nevermind". "You're right, Courtney should have married you instead". Seems like a fair price to pay for a Yamaha endorsement I guess.

Baron von Eevl posted:Support Zwan because David Pajo needs all the help he can get. I love him but like all the guys from Slint he's got the sad kind of brainworms (instead of Bilbo's aggravating brainworms) and I really hope he just doesn't need to worry about money, he's got enough on his plate. He's in the new gang of 4 line up which is a sadly hilarious story in itself and paints Andy Gill as pretty Corgan esque

SUNKOS posted:If that was true there is no way they could have released Atum or even attempted to in the first place. It doesn't make sense and I also really doubt that Gish etc. are still selling like crazy all these years after they were reissued. I mean really? There's just crazy demand for Gish vinyls which were released over a decade ago? Propping up your partners meat free tea Emporium ain't cheap

SUNKOS posted:What's funny is they just announced a new archive release of a random show he played at Madame Zuzu's which is vinyl-only. I wonder why they're dedicating such limited resources to that if the reissues that make a fortune but are also not worth releasing (?!) could be pressed instead? This is really backwards reasoning. That show was from 4 or 5 years ago, and was professionally recorded. It's not like Corgan woke up last week and drove the master down to his local pressing plant on a whim, if anything the massive delay between the show and its release indicates he's having as hard a time getting poo poo pressed as anyone else who hasn't hosed John Mayer.
