yknow what? I'm actually kind of excited. I mean. At least dude's trying to still deliver something crazy and ridiculous. I like that.

EVOLghost 09.16.2009 08:24 PM

44 songs.

...44 songs.

auto-aim 09.16.2009 08:40 PM

It's hard to believe it wont suck but theres still a part of me that hopes. Can't really complain if it's free - unless it is complete donald trump.

That's the thing, though. You know most bands would be able to write at least one half-decent song, to put on an album of 44. But we're talking about a band who had over 800 songs before Machina even came out. So...

noisereductions 09.16.2009 09:00 PM

I'll be the one dude to check it out.

atsonicpark 09.16.2009 09:02 PM

I mean, SERIOUSLY:
 

atsonicpark 09.16.2009 09:03 PM

The album is called Teargarden by Kaleidyscope.

44 songs.
"Targarden"
"Kaleidyscope".
Billy Corgan.

= FUCKING AWFUL.

atsonicpark 09.16.2009 09:08 PM

The harmonics in the main riff to "Zero", that one little half-second of sound, is the only cool sound in the entire Smashing Pumpkins catalogue.

infinitemusic 09.16.2009 09:45 PM

Jesus Christ, focus on 10 fucking songs and actually make them good. Don't record 44 songs just because you have no focus, no actual idea what you want to do and too much fucking money to sit still.

Shifty Prophet 09.16.2009 09:56 PM

This will be a shit project, but, I'm curious to see what level Corgan will stoop to make sure he fucks us all in the earhole, and NOT in the good way.

Only other band I've heard of releasing that many songs on one LP is Minutemen

I'll give it a listen. I thoroughly enjoy all the Pumpkins albums except Zeitgeist. This doesn't mean that I like Billy Corgan in the least. I've been of the mind for years that he should be locked away and only allowed to make music, not speak, give interviews, or do anything. I'd be lying if I didn't say that the Pumpkins recorded some of my favorite songs ever from Gish to Machina II.

Aaaadrpk 09.17.2009 01:07 AM

i hate smashing pumpinks

infinitemusic 09.17.2009 01:16 AM

Yeah I got tired of them real quick after I got out of high school... don't know why. But now I would be happy if I never heard their music again.

44 songs?! Fucking moron. Why is it that Billy always has to release every song he makes? I mean look at Mellon collie & infinite sadness. What was the point of releasing a double cd when he could have easily removed half of the songs on it?
TWAT

atsonicpark 09.17.2009 06:46 AM

Yeah, but he did remove most of the good songs from those sessions...

Haven't you heard AEROPLANE FLIES HIGH?

...Er.. I mean.

...HEY, I WAS 15 ONCE!

nothing in this world is free. I bet this shit comes with spyware.

there's no way in hell Billy's turning down a buck.

atsonicpark 09.17.2009 08:56 AM

Despite all his rage, he's still just a shit musician.

noisereductions 09.17.2009 09:04 AM

we spend too much time arguing about the Pumpkins. Seven of us like them. The rest of us don't. Let's get on with our lives now.

atsonicpark 09.17.2009 09:09 AM

They only have seven fans, overall?

Eh, that number seems a little high honestly.

loubarret 09.17.2009 09:31 AM

Count me one of them.

I still give it a spin wen it comes out.

I agree with you buddy.

I'm a huge Adore and MACHINA I and II fan.

Derek 09.17.2009 11:11 AM

Siamese Dream rules.

Everything else can chew my chonk.

I don't like Adore, but I really like some songs on Machina I & II. In fact, I think Machina II is one of my top three favorite SP releases, behind Mellon Collie and Siamese Dream. I even liked Zwan.

I'll probably download this and delete whatever I don't like.

fucking quit already.

jerf 09.17.2009 02:57 PM

I actually liked Zeitgeist, I don't see why it gets so much hate.
44 songs for free? I'll listen to it, and hope there's a couple good songs.

joe11121 09.17.2009 05:39 PM

I like the Pumpkins once in a while, I'll listen to it, I like around half of their output. And even if I don't like it, it's free

Oh, and Zeitgeist is the worst album I have ever heard

barry swedgin 09.18.2009 03:27 PM

Mellon Collie's the LP that keeps on giving. LOVE IT.

auto-aim 09.18.2009 03:39 PM

This Is Going To Be The Greatest Ever!!!!! This Band Plops Over Other Bands
