what a complete and utter pile of freakin noise

This album ages exceptionally well.. released the day after tomorrow 13 years ago, if I remember correctly (23/5/2000). At first I disliked it for the noisiness (which also sadly permeated the zwan album) caused by relentless level compression, but in recent years I find myself appreciating the sounds and arrangements that hide behind the noise. Also, Speed Kills is one of their best B-sides, go check it out!

I always thought this band was called 'Smashing Pumkins', not 'The Smashing Pumkins'.

Not that I care either way, but it makes a big difference in the meaning of the band name... Either someone is smashing pumpkins, as in fruit ninja, or we're talking about a bunch of pumpkins that are just smashing...

I totally understand not liking the SP in general and Billy's voice and ego in particular. 

I totally don't understand, however, how much vitriol this particular (IMO godlike) piece of music attracts.

One of the few or maybe the only SP song I could listen to over and over. An acquired taste. Play it again, Bill.

Having overheard a few of their big hits, I never became a Smashing Pumpkins fan, so I didn't go out of my way to crank them out, they sounded like droning alt grungers, and I couldn't get a fix on Corgan. But this cut is, well, smashing. I'd iTune it.

The idea that we fill a phone booth filled with water and Billy Corgan - while brilliant and undoubtedly effective - won't work on account of they don't make phone booths anymore.  The thought was there, however.  Imagine how much bad stuff could be avoided in the future if only...

Chamberlin is (was?) a wild beast on drums with a style and energy that was his alone.  The one album that Smashing Pumpkins made without him ("Adore," I think) was interesting, but overall it lacked energy in Jimmy's absence.  It reminded me of when R.E.M. recorded "Up" — it was interesting in tone and feel, but the lack of Bill Berry was definitely felt.

A bit biting for those who dig the "usual".

This is still an overlooked masterpiece of an album, and song of course.

Thank God for the Smashing Pumpkins.
Without artist like Billy, we'd have nothing but a steady stream of "American Idol" type artists. Which is nothing more than Wall Street created sound for the boring masses.

Long live the Pumpkins and other artist who reach out for a unique sound.  (and long live RP for playing it!)

I like it.  And the album too.  One of the best 90s groups.

Billy Corgan should be held up as a great source of inspiration among young, aspiring singer songwriters everywhere: 

So your voice sounds like a drunken, self-absorbed, pubescent, voice-cracking, Karaoke performance, and your songs sound like muzak fed thru a distortion box, take heart!, because if the Smashing Pumpkins can do it, then so can you!

I totally agree. Even if I happen to Love the pumpkins I find that when I listen to them nowdays I focus all my atention on the drums. Jimmy Chamberlain is a truly amazing musician.

"Who wouldn't be the one you love? " 

I love this track.  In UK it is just the right time of day to thrash a bit.  Try it on  decent sound system.

The Baldy Twat in a dress (quote Sharon Osborne) is for sure a difficult character, but has produced some great music.  I don't really care so much for the last SP tome, but absolutely love Siamese Dream, Mellon, and Adore.  This track is the outstanding track of Machina - the video that goes with it apeing Aubrey Beardsley is also very creative.

Love it.{#Bananajam}

10 minus 1 for Billy Corgan being such a dink.

God I love Jimmy Chamberlin's drumming though.

One of the greatest love songs ever, ever,  ever! I just love it. As I said to a friend once: See that guy singing the lyrics he wrote? That's me, that is. See that guy screwing his guitar and making it scream in ecstasy? That's me, that is.

SP is one of those bands I've seen live and will never be able to divorce myself of that experience. Billy Corgan was such an incredible ass, insulting the audience and threatening to leave if they didn't quiet down. A brilliant set, musically, but the crowd sure left swearing never to buy one of their albums. Nov. 1991, Gish tour, along with Pearl Jam opening for the RHCP's. Two months later they were kicked off the tour by Anthony Kiedis and replaced with Nirvana.
