Pumpkins compromise on "MACHINA"

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2000
Review: With 1998's "Adore", the Smashing Pumpkins embarked on a new journey, a journey that many were not ready to take. Frontman Billy Corgan stated that rock was not the direction music was heading.

But with the recent resurgence of rock music,...

Farewell and goodnight

Date of Review:  Mar 22, 2002
The Bottom Line: It's the final Pumpkin album. You wouldn' want to miss it.
Review: First, this album is at least 3 1/2 stars, but it didn't feel right to give it just 3 stars, so I rated it at its best, instead of at its lowest. Anyway, forget the ratings. Onto the review.

If you think about it, though the Smashing...

Never Say Die

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2000
Review: One year ago I highly doubted I would ever hear another studio release from the smashing pumpkins. Instead I now listen to what i believe to be their greatest album ever. When I found out they were releasing a new album I had my doubts about whether...

SP Machina I+2: together so great

Date of Review:  May 30, 2001
The Bottom Line: WB Yeats wrote 'We only begin to live when we percieve life as tragedy'. SP releases you into a world where you can feel the significance of this.
Review: Through the soup-like grungy darkness of their continuing ouevre, the redemptive light of Billy Corgan's fighting tunes emerge thinly through his voice but appropriately, soulfully, powering out towards some hopeful union, release or just some total...

I sure hate it when people smash MY pumpkins!!!

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2000
Review: I used to think that the Smashing Pumpkins were a snuffly British punk band. I had heard 1979 off of their Mellon Collie album, and I was utterly disgusted with the frontman's voice. After I heard such songs as "disarm" off of Siamese dream, I began...

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...

Review: The Smashing Pumpkins are back! This album is everything a SP fan could hope for - awesome drums by the one and only Jimmy Chamberlain, cryptic lyrics by Billy Corgan, excellent guitar by James Iha, and heavy bass by D'arcy. The following is a...

The Future of Rock...

Date of Review:  May 20, 2000
Review: The Smashing Pumpkins. What else is there to say? They are without a doubt the best, most inspirational, unique band out there. It all started with Gish which was not a big hit. Then came Siamese Dream which put them into mainstream rock. Mellon...

Review: I've been a Smashing Pumpkins fan for several years now... in fact, since about 6th grade. Beginning in 1988, The Smashing Pumpkins were soon to be noticed outside their Chicago home. Over the years they have produced several albums, each with its...
