OMG I have seen this and will be updating my old vinyl and CD, this is a great album, full of great songs and b sides and stuff, love the song Pissant. A bonus DVD too, they could have included the show I went to with Lou when Billy had hair :) this is a little expensive at the moment so I will buy when it has dropped in price like the other two box sets. Any fan should own this or should have the original.

Well said Sweaty! :cheers2

Speaking of Pisces Iscariot boxset it came with a.......

:omg:

.....cassette! What's that!? :wtf:

That's pretty sick. Still one of my favorite bands even though Billy Corgan is a douche.
He is talented.
Jimmy is definitely one of my favorite drummers.
Actually covered Geek USA. Definitely one of my favorites along with silver****, cherub rock, i am one, siva, jellybelly etc.

My Love is Winter is fantastic. Oceania is something I easily can get into, flows perfectly from song to song. Glad I did buy this album. :)


One Diamond, One Heart is another I like.

I cannot believe they put a tape in with that box set, I don't have a tape deck anymore, they could have done it on CD or vinyl, strange people:) I suppose they had to release it as it has been available to download from various sites for some time and I believe the original is quite rare.

Can't really get into the new album honestly. It has its moments, but for the me their best albums are their first three. Just love that guitar tone and the drums. Billy is with out a doubt one of the best guitarists that has graced music. Actually bought his signature fender. IMO the best fender on the market.

Been listening to them a lot recently. Their is a band Torche from Miami Florida that reminds me a bit of The Smashing Pumpkins when it comes to guitar tone and the hard rock/metal they pumped out in the early to mid 90s.

I have Oceania in my top 20 albums of 2012, pretty impressive start to finish.
