The new Smashing Pumpkins album comes out today! I'll probably pick it up on the way home from work. There are certain bands that I just respect enough to go buy a physical CD when they put out a new album. Recently it's been Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and now Smashing Pumpkins.
Smashing Pumpkins is one of those nostalgic bands for me. I was very into them in high school, and so were most of my friends. In fact, we all missed their final San Diego concert when we went to our Senior Prom.
I'm a little worried since the band only has two of its original members. But then again, the band broke up because Billy Corgan was such a control freak with the music. So it probably doesn't matter who's playing bass and guitar, I'm sure Billy told them all what to play anyway.

Let me know how the CD is... I'm kind of curious myself (as I remember chanting "despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage" with all my friends in MS/HS)
Also, I made sure I linked to your blog from mine now as well... so now people can happily go back and forth with the click of a single link. Have a great day!
