There is a kind of perseverance behind the decision to publish a commemorative of "Mellon collie & the infinite sadness". The monumental, even for the size of the disk that has finally consecrated in 1995 (and then torn to pieces) Smashing Pumpkins has the title of a declaration of intent that was hard to ignore: that melancholy and infinite sadness that he was playing at the time a bit 'naive, if... read more

Excellent review! Even though I was never a huge Smashing Pumpkins fan, this is one of my favourite albums of all time!

“There is a kind of perseverance behind the decision to publish a commemorative of "Mellon collie & the infinite sadness". The monumental, even for the size of the disk that has finally consecrated in 1995 (and then torn to pieces) Smashing Pumpkins has the title of a declaration of intent that was hard to ignore: that melancholy and infinite sadness that he was playing at the time a bit 'naive, if not "cheesy" to say it as they would the Americans.

Yet it was all true, and a generation has grown up with the power, despair, desolation and flare-ups of the double album, which set ambitious experiment is to take a wrong Billy Corgan and his associates. Members, in fact, there were really during the recording sessions between Chicago and Los Angeles, at a time he sought in every way ” read more

Best albums of 1995 (43 music items)

"Prior to this I'd decided I wasn't a Smashing Pumpkins fan. I'd bought Siamese Dream & found it worked wonderfully as a sleep aid at the time, and subsequently wrote them off. Then MTV aired a behind-the-scenes look at this album before its release which sparked my interest. Shortly after that a local radio station previewed several tracks from it & I decided I absolutely had to have it. And once I did have it I loved almost every moment (the sole exception being the song "Take Me Down" which is"

Overrated Albums (29 music items)

"Billy Corgan really makes himslef look like a fucking idiot. Overly indulgent rubbish. There's some great tracks here and there, but the big picture is a pretentious, overblown album that's trying way too hard to speak to "Generation X". I'm an angry teenager, this is not relateable, if you want proper alt rock that would speak to your teenage soul, pick up Let it Be (no, not the fucking Beatles, the Replacements), Violent Femmes, Pinkerton, or Spiderland instead"
