Smashing Pumpkins (Official Thread)

[Soot and Stars]

Anyone have the new album yet? I daren't buy it as I'm almost positive I'll receive it for Xmas, and I've been resisting listening to the album online so have only heard Being Beige so far.

I haven't checked my PO Box in a couple days so i may finally have it soon. I gave a cursory listen to it on Spotify but can't judge. From what I've heard this track is still my favorite. It came out before the album so it's not too much of a spoiler. Check it out!

One and All

Ooooh yes, this I do like! I'm still so-so about Being Beige but this track is great!!

"Being Beige" was very anti-climatic for the first song to be released or leaked! "One and All" brought me back as well as "Drum + Fife".

Yes I personally thought it was a bit of a staid choice as a taster for a new Pumpkins album. Drum & Fife - just had a listen on YouTube - yep, another winner!!

Definitely better than "Being Beige"! Haven't picked up the new album yet, but plan to do so next time I drop by a record store.


.... I still can't get over the fact that Tommy Lee plays the drums on it.

New album is terrific. Definitely one I was happy to buy. Also bought Gish in the process.

Anaise!


Drum + Fife

With honourable mentions to Monuments and One and All (We Are). Still not sold on Being Beige, can't see that changing.

I love great surprises like that. I got some good stuff for Christmas as well, but unfortunately, the new SP was not one of them. Last time I checked at the local record store, the new one had not arrived. I'll give it one more shot this week, or I'll have to order it online.

Still letting the new album sink in.

Hubby bought me two CDs I've been hankering after and so did my dad
