    When my kids were younger, they were going through my CD collection and looking at the album art. They came across this album and asked me, "Why are there kids on the cover?" I told them that those two little girls were in the band, and that one of them was the singer and played guitar, and the other little girl was the drummer. I said that those two little girls were extremely talented musicians and were actually pretty bad ass for their age. So then I played the album. It took them until Billy Corgan started singing before they realized that their dad was full of shit.

    What a strange life this is. Bear with me. This album came out when I was 14. One of the first albums I bought on CD. And if it captures your imagination now, imagine what it felt like in 1993 when it also captured the zeitgeist. When it felt like the perfect soundtrack to the life of a young person in the early 90s.
    But I want to talk about the song Cherub Rock more than anything. It was one of my very favourite songs when I was 14, 15, 16, for the reasons stated above. It still reminds me of that time, vividly, even now. But more than that...
    It was also one of the best songs on Guitar Hero III. A game that came out in 2007, when I was 28. Guitar Hero III was the last game that my friends and I played together. We got together every week to play Xbox and especially Guitar Hero and vowed that nothing would ever change. But we all knew that wasn't true. The feeling hung increasingly heavily in the air that these stolen nights of fun away from responsibilities were the last days of the gang, as we got older and adult life intruded on youth.
    Cherub Rock was our favourite song to play. And I remember distinctly, we were half way through it one night, idly chatting as we always did, when my best friend told me he was thinking about putting an offer in on a house. A house a hell of a long way away from where we all lived and grew up.
    I knew then this chapter of our lives was coming to an end. Like spotting the first wrinkle on your face. The truth is, we all had situations that would naturally lead to it. Marriage, kids on the way etc. You know those days will come but it's quite the realisation when they are upon you. Every time we played Guitar Hero after that, and especially Cherub Rock, I wondered if it was the last time we ever would, and took special care to savour it.
    So, the song has always had this dual association for me. It's like it bookended my whole youth.
    Well tomorrow is my 45th birthday. 45 always felt like the middle of middle age for me. I dreaded it. Another of life's increasingly sobering milestones. This semi-professional philosopher is feeling particularly philosophical today, reminiscing on life gone by, trying to wring some leftover joy from faded memories...
    And wouldn't you know it but the same song has come up again. I didn't search for this. It was in my subscription feed. At this rate, it'll play at my funeral, whether I asked for it or not.
    But this time, it's young people, just like I was, in the 90s, like we are were, discovering its magic for the first time just like we all did. And it truly is, for me, the closest thing to living it again for the first time. And perhaps that is what this advanced adulthood is all about.
    So thanks for this lads, I'm so glad that you love this music. I hope it lives forever within you, and means as much to you as it did to us.

    My favorite album for over thirty years now. When I was 12 years old back in 94', my friend's older brother was being deployed to the middle east. He brought a giant box full of cassette tapes into my room and set it down in front of us. It contained tons of great 90's alt/grunge bands and their albums. Weezer, Green Day, NIN, Nirvana, AiC, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Faith No More, etc. But we decided to put the album with the funny kids on the cover in first. The Smashing Pumpkins would be my favorite band from that day on. The albums Gish - Machina II are all great. Billy has done tons of other stuff too like solo albums and Zwan, and a lot of the post 2000 pumpkins stuff is good here and there, but nothing can touch the 90's output. The man can only make so many masterpieces lol. Great video guys. What I would give to go back and hear all this great music for the first time. We all felt exactly the same as you two did in this video. The 90's were great.

    An Electro-Harmonix Op-Amp Big Muff fuzz pedal is the guitar sound of this album. So iconic. So much so that many years later they re-released it with Billy endorsing it and having a "Pumpkins" color scheme.

    This was the best one I've ever seen...hands down.
    Why YT cut SB and SF makes zero sense to me. But....if that means I have to join your Patreon, ok...I'll do it!
    This album is absolutely a 10/10 and means so so much to me. I love how deeply you both felt it.

    The statement of Billy Corgan writing the entire album is not exactly true. One of the most important songs 'Mayonaise' guitar parts, excluding the solo and other lead parts was written by James Iha. Similar for 'Soma' as well, specifically the intro. Most of the time Billy would come up with stuff at home or rehearsals and the band would collaborate to build the songs, as well as parts of James and Billies guitar styles would merge together to create their sound. The recording of the album was still a shit show, however they were not as bad before they entered the studio.
    Mellon Collie and the infinite sadness would be the zenith of the band working together and collaborating as a family, creatively, experementally, and homogeneously. With a different producer at the helm who pushed for an authentic portrayl of the band, not the perfection in siamese dream, it resulted in the truest form of the pumpkins to be portrayed. It would end up being one of the greatest and biggest albums of all time.

    Hey guys. Just subscribed. Watching you guys experience this like I did back in the early 90s when I was probably about your age. Man.....changed my life. I was just listening to nothing but old school rap at the time and focused on nonsensical things. My friend Adam introduced me to Smashing and this very album. I didn't even want to listen to it. It changed everything. Simple times of us trying to make it and sleeping on a mattress on the floor in an apartment and trying to work and pay my own way. This album and "Selling the Drama" by Live became the soundtrack of my life and got me through so much.....good and bad.
    I appreciate seeing you guys experience these new things. I feel like I'm watching myself at that time and it's so touching to see you "get it". Keep on keeping on.

    Glad y’all enjoyed this bonafide classic. It needs no introduction at this point and has been a huge influence on so many including myself, I’m 31 and many songs on this album were on very heavy rotation during my teenage years. As far as the discussion around this album’s style and influence I do feel like this is maybe the most harmonious marriage of grunge and shoegaze aesthetics to come out of the golden era of alternative rock in the early 90s. Assigning a single genre tag to it is kind of a fruitless endeavor because Corgan had such a panoramic vision for their sound. I’d even argue that Today is one of the most prominent early examples of midwest emo, even if no one ever outright refers to the Pumpkins as an emo band. Great video!

    This album is just wall to wall 10s. By comparison I think Mellon Collie is a little bloated, but the highs on it are higher than anything else in their discography. It’s definitely worth checking out

    • @ninja_tony
      @ninja_tony 29 дней назад +1

      I personally don’t think Mellon Collie is bloated, only because I LOVE every track on it, but I fully agree that it’s highs are the best in their entire history. I think the highs on Mellon Collie are even greater than the highs on Siamese Dream - just my personal opinion obviously lol. But both albums are among the best ever written.

    • @LudiColorado
      @LudiColorado 29 дней назад

      @@ninja_tony compared to Siamese Dream I think the second half of Mellon Collie is a little bloated and my ears get a little fatigued of listening to it, I think the production just isn’t quite as appealing as it is on SD. But Siamese Dream is one of the tightest albums ever so it’s not really much of a criticism

    First time i watched you guys. Cool channel. Hummer is one of, if not, thee most underrated songs of the 90s. Not sure why it was never released as a single because it's a banger. Also i liked how you edited the video to include literally all the highlights of every song. Well done.

    I took my kids to watch the Pumpkins in concert for the first time last summer. Even though Darcy was not in the band at the show, this was an awesome experience. I grew up listening to this band and the kids, who are in their late teens, have picked up on mine and their moms musical tastes of alternative rock/2000's rock

    this is very entertaining to watch and love the full album listen. I am excited for you two to keep diving into the lyrical context behind these songs.. for example Today is literally about committing suicide. If you already loved the core sound then the deeper lyrical focus will raise it even higher. 100 out of 10. This album changed my life. We are doing a Top 50 SP songs of all time series on my channel to celebrate that. SP Forever.

By the way, they have another new album coming out August 2nd 2024. And Billy says it is an attempt to recapture their 90s sound. I can’t wait!

    the sound of the guitars on the album uses an effect peddle call "Big Muff" . That effect is what was used by bands like Mudhoney to create the fuzz sound that would be called "grunge". So technically , even though smashing pumpkins style doesnt fall into the typical "grunge" mold, it is literally "grunge". I bought this album when It came out . I was in my early twenties. it was my favorite album for a long time until my life moved on .recently in the last year I have been listening and enjoying it again as I did when I was young. It seems like it is coming back around again as I keep seeing it being discussed

Making the youth feel the same, whether it was us 90s teens then or your generation now… and surely my kids in the 2030s… 🎸🎃💜 (and so cool that you keep mentioning how good his voice is, most casual fans say his voice is hard to mess with….) now before you go to bed, go smoke a big joint, put your headphones on, turn off all the lights, lay down and put this on. You’ll literally have a siamese dream 😉

A album you guys do need to hear that blew me away was the artist - Circa Survive/ Album - On Letting Go 2007 There best album IMO. You guys will go into a full spiritual experience from this it’s so good! Please check it out no video needed if anything just enjoy the greatness it has to offer.. also his vocals are super unique. Thanks guys for letting me relive some first time hearing experiences! You guys rock and first video I saw was you wearing a Vail shirt lol I live right next to Beaver Creek Ski Resort in Avon so I thought it was meant to be 😂
