I’ll admit it that I’m not a Smashing Pumpkins fan, but they are worth a try. Their novelty doesn’t rub off on me like a lot of people. The thing that pisses me off about them is not their hit singles, but the other songs that they create. They don’t go anywhere and just drift on and on and on. Corgan bugs me when he screams and yells. I don’t want to listen to a whining kid crying over how much his life sucks. The songs that get put on the radio are decent and I respect them, but the pain of only listening to half of a C.D is just too much. For those who buy records just to get their one special song this is the band for you because you won’t want to listen to the rest. Give them a try, they are bloody famous, but they sure haven’t impressed me. Why resort to such boredom and tiresome music combined with some wicked songs. I have a bootleg of them playing their good songs, and it is exciting and good music. I just don’t know if it is worth the money. I certainly won’t buy their collection.
