Try to Hold On

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2005
The Bottom Line: It's good.
Review: The other day, one of those little tests of daily life that most of us have to go through happened to me.

A very short and well-turned out lady strolled up to me as I waited for my train, quietly minding my own business. I was listening to...

Music for the Gods and their machines

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2000
Review: Billy Corgan is pretentious, manic, egotistical, self effacing, depressing, overly self involved, and generally detached. And it is all of the things and more that makes Corgan's music with the Smashing Pumpkins nothing short of genius. I have been...

You Know They're Not Dead!

Date of Review:  Mar 1, 2000
Review: "You know I'm not dead!" wails Billy Corgan on the first line of the first song on the Smashing Pumpkins newest album MACHINA/The Machines of God. The Everlasting Gaze is not only the first song but subsequently the first single. It's a reminder...

Kick Me In The Jimmy!

Date of Review:  Mar 15, 2000
Review: Most people will agree that Siamese Dream is the most important album in the Smashing Pumpkin?s discography. Sure, sure, some people like Mellon Collie better than SD but no one can deny its importance in bringing the Pumpkins into the eyes and...

MACHINA: The Pumpkins' breakup album

Date of Review:  Dec 4, 2004
The Bottom Line: A lukewarm fan, or haven't bought an album of theirs? Then start elsewhere. Otherwise, it's worthy of being checked out.
Review: Almost everyone who likes alternative rock, or even just rock, knows and loves The Smashing Pumpkins. This Chicago-based band had been around for awhile, finding their record deal in the early 1990s when Gish was released. They made a sort of mark,...

2000 | Music of the Gods

Date of Review:  Mar 9, 2000
Review: Though time will serve as the true test, it's highly probable that MACHINA/the machines of God will fall out as the best Pumpkins' release of their turbulent nine years. It is also a strong early contender for album of the year.

First,...

A good effort.

Date of Review:  May 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: A very strong album with some of the Smashing Pumpkin's finest material.
Review: The follow up to the Smashing Pumpkin's album "Adore" marks another milestone in the band's carreer. "MACHINA/ The Machines Of God" reintegrates founding member Jimi Chamberlin on drums after his dismissal owing to a drug scandal while the band were...

"Machina- we?ve come to take our crown back one more time and p*** on it"

Date of Review:  Jul 9, 2004
The Bottom Line: This is an excellent album, one of the Pumpkin's best. Siamese Dream was more acclaimed, Mellon Collie longer, Adore more depressing, but this is my favourite.
Review: Words spoken by a man who some have described as a poet, artist, general philosopher trapped inside a rockstar.
Of course, this is also a man that people have described as a pretentious, tyrannical, domineering...egghead. As we can see, there...

The First Musical Masterpiece of the 21st Century

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2000
Review: There was a time when I was a bit younger, around 15 or so, when I absolutely loved the Smashing Pumpkins. The roaring guitars, the incredible melodies and lyrics, and of course, as a drummer, I loved Jimmy Chamberlain's drumming. However, all that...

The fickle fascination of an everlasting God.

Date of Review:  Jun 8, 2000
Review: Quite a while before it ever became as huge of an issue as it has since become, I was running a search on the Smashing Pumpkins on Napster, to see if there were any live tracks or decent remixes to download. And a number of songs came up in the...
