Personally, the split style of Dream pop and metal is what drew me to the band. Since you like the mellow songs more, you’ll love their B-side record Pisces Iscariot. While it has some rockers on it which are great, I keep coming back for the beautiful acoustic tracks. Oh and Starla might be then holy grail of all Pumpkin tracks. It was one of their first songs that tried to combine the two styles like Soma. Their Debut “Gish” does something similar with the separation of styles with some of the most beautiful songs on the back half. Keep striving.
To me they feel more like listen-alongs with a buddy than proper reviews. his lack of pandering and honest opinion combined with subtle humor makes him my fave (:
I actually love the quirkier songs like "we only come out at night", "Beautiful" and "Lily", and "farewell and goodnight". "Lily" is actually one of my favorites on the album. By Starlight was my favorite song on the album for many years. Now it's really hard to pick a favorite. There's a song for every mood.
The Smashing Pumpkins have been my favorite band since I was 11 yrs old and handed the Siamese Dream cassette tape back in 93'. Siamese Dream is my favorite album of all time and MCIS is my number two. They are the Superman and Batman of The Smashing Pumpkins discography. Both just as good as each other. I also recommend the albums Gish, Adore, Machina 1 and 2, and the b-side collections Pisces Iscariot and The Aeroplane Flies High. All great stuff. Billy's other project, Zwan is great too. He's had a few solo albums I enjoy as well. Newer pumpkins has some good stuff here and there as well from the albums Zeitgeist - Atum. Good video man, I will check out the rest of your stuff.
In the arms of sleep, xyu, 1979 are my personal favorites. Fun fact: If you play this album from beginning to end in sync with Scott Pilgrim Vs The World movie it's a one to one match.
That's not exactly true, some of the songs that by chance sync up with some of the scenes end up continuing into the next. For instance the beginning of Tonight Tonight syncs up with the first scene of Sex Bob-omb playing, but the tail end of the song continues into the scene of Scott returning to his and Wallace's apartment. While it is not a complete one to one match, it is still spectacular how some of the songs and scenes do match up.
I've been listening to this album for almost thirty years and my favorite song has changed eight or nine times. At first, it was all the hard driving stuff. Then I spent one night driving and just put Cupid De Locke on repeat for over two hours and simulated being wasted and in love the whole time. I want Muzzle played at my funeral. The album is so rich, I can't even begin to imagine anyone making something better. Also, fyi, the Galapagos islands are some of the most remote in the world, leading to life that's evolved in novel ways in their isolation. Thank you for recognizing it.
Another Smags banger! Been looking forward to this one since the Siamese Dream video. Great to see you react to bangers like Tonight Tonight, Zero, Bullet With Butterfly Wings and 1979. Keep up the great work dude! 🙂
Pls react to low by david bowie its a mind-blowing album that inspired various post punk and eletronic bands like joy division and new order and is considered one of the best if not the best albums of the 70s
Bullet With Butterfly Wings is about the 9 to 5, yes, of the music industry, and of having to perform with a certain standard and to certain expectations of what a rock star and rock band is supposed to be.
Thanx a lot! One of the most essential bands of my teenage years and a great album (followed by Adore, which I was addicted to). But still - I was most enchanted by Suede's guitars (I strongly recommend the first album Suede, or the second Dog Man Star).
The way you describe this album as a string of dreams is so accurate lmao. Siamese dream gets such high praise for the insane guitar layering and production but they took that to a whole new level on this album, both on the ambient tracks like By Starlight and Porcelina and the heavier tracks like Jellybelly and Muzzle. Incredible album
I cannot imagine how long this took to shoot and especially edit. But I am very appreciative that you took that time. This is one of my favorite albums, and I'm so glad you paid such close attention to all the songs, even the ones that are hard to listen to. God bless. My favorites are your favorites. Also, I think you'd really like Pisces Iscariot by Smashing Pumkins. It's an album of B-sides from Gish and Siamese Dream. There's no crazy ass songs like the ones on this album. Lots of vibe songs.
I almost never go back to more than 3 or 4 songs on this album, but the couple times I actually have listened all the way through I always realize how absolutely stacked with quality this thing is
I use to delve into this album all the time as a teenager. I remember it used to feel so massive it almost seemed never ending. And Stumbeline was one of the first songs I ever learned on guitar. During Take Me Down I realised another double album I'd highly recommend (that song reminds me of some of the softer moments on it). Bath/Leaving Your Body Map by maudlin of the Well. It's metal but also so much more than metal, and to me some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. I'm not sure how many other people would want it though, it's a cult classic but not massively well known.
Another double album that’s also rather long but worth every second of it is Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming by M83. That shit slaps it’s really great has some iconic songs on it.
I think you’d really dig the Pisces Iscariot album. It’s a good mix of mellow songs, which you seem to like & the heavier stuff (for the most part) stays within that ‘mellow heavy’ style the Pumpkins do so well. Overall, it’s probably my favorite Pumpkins album.
Here’s one you might not have ever heard of. Inside the Cable Temple by Omnipotent Youth Society is a fantastic Chinese album. It mixes jazz and rock and traditional Chinese music so well it’s stunning.
Yooo I love this album a lot, one of the ones that raised me. I had it on my phone when I was 14 cause my dad helped me pirate it and I used to spin all the time together with gorillaz and queens of the Stone Age. Btw you really need to react to those bands as well
Mellon Collie is one of my favorites, nice to see a mostly positive reaction to it. I'll continue to recommend Ben Folds Five - The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner.
I’m like you Smags I prefer the softer Pumpkins stuff. I think your favorite by them will be their debut Gish when you listen to it (hopefully). It’s like a mix of shoegaze and Pink Floyd with a splash of grunge.
Thank you smags Ps if you liked the softer songs here I think you’ll vibe with the overall atmosphere of Adore which is a lot more lush in production and features what to me is like a 1979 Part 2 in the song “Perfect.” Phenomenal ballads. I really wish “Eye” was on it but I still think it’s really solid.
I’m not gonna add to the endless list of recommendations I just thought I’d say that as a new viewer I love how many albums you make videos on that most other people wouldn’t it really feels like a musical journey documented on yt you’ve earned a sub
I've gone on and off and back onto Pumpkins in my life. Here to stay now though. Corgans guitar and Jimmy's drums have always been nothing but outstanding. Corgan is underrated as a guitar hero imho... and Jimmy is probably the most tasteful and groovy rock'n'roll drummer I've heard this side of John Bonham.
This is probably my favorite of all time, by my favorite rock band of all time. This album is literally the soundtrack to my teenage years. This album was pretty divisive album when it was released because it was so vastly different from Siamese Dream, but it's now regarded as a classic. This album is a lyrical masterpiece, and Billy really shows off his ability to write poetry on this one. This album helped form who I am as a person, and I'll always get goosebumps every time I listen to it. My original Mellon Collie CD is actually worn out from being played so many times. 😂 Love, Bodies, Thru the Eyes of Ruby, Galapogos (the second verse. 😭😭😭), In the Arms of Sleep, By Starlight...there are just so many amazing songs on this album that if I continued, I'd list 98% of the album. Fun Fact: The guitarist James Iha recorded one of his solo songs in Simlish for the game The Sims 4.
I almost cried seeing them live because they mean so much to me. Specifically when they played Hummer. I listened to Siamese Dream like every day of high school, I listened to it so much that I didn’t even get to listening to all of Mellon Collie til college and it really hit with me then, perhaps more than it would’ve in high school as I was going through a lot of new changes and it really helped ground me. Love both albums to Pisces (pun intended)
@@CoolcatzCornerSame! I met them in 1999 (Billy, James, Jimmy. I got a kiss on the cheek from Billy (and just about lost my teenage mind), saw them live in 2000 (Machina), then when they did their reunion tour in 2007, I took a greyhound bus from Detroit to San Diego, then drove to San Francisco for the first show of the reunion. I was probably too young to see the MCIS tour, but I REALLY wish I had. I accidentally crowd surfed at my first Pumpkins show. I tried to get on my friend's shoulders, and someone grabbed my ankle. The next thing I knew I was being grabbed by security, and escorted away from the stage. Fun Times! haha.
Wow!! What a dream. And what a commitment to see them in San Fran. I love that. I wish I was around in the 90s for the pumpkins heydays but alas, I was born in '97... I saw them last year for their world is a vampire tour and they still rock so hard. "The Everlasting Gaze" was such a great way to open the set. @@GhostlyEcheveria
If I want the pure pumpkins experience where I fully immerse myself in an album I'll put on Siamese Dream but if I want a quick pumpkins fix I'll put on Mellon collie@@brrts
definitely gotta check out Adore if you plan on listening to more Smashing Pumpkins! its definitely not as good as Siamese or Mellon Collie, but its still worth a listen. Its very unique and leans more into electronic/synth sounds. Also their first album Gish would be a good one too
I think that you gotta be in a certain mood to be for this album, I love hard rock and chill songs which makes this album perfect, yet it remains to not be inconsistent.
I've always felt this was a concept album that was supposed to represent the mood swings in one day of someone going through a particularly bad breakup. The original release was on 2 CDs/tapes entitled "Dawn to Dusk" and "Twilight to Starlight" (hence the peaceful first track sounding very much like just waking up) then proceeding through the day where at some point the breakup occurs, then we start to see massive mood swings later in the day (particularly noticeable on Disk 2).. I think that's the reason the track sequencing is so.... schizophrenic... just my take.
There were no synths on Love, just guitar run through a bunch of effects. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what effects were used because the tone they got just sounds out of this world and I want my guitar to sound the same Edit: what you heard at 23:13 was most likely not actually a synth, both Billy and James have clever ways to make their guitar playing sound synth-like. As far as I know, there are no credits for synth on this album so it's unlikely that there even is any synth Edit 2: 23:43 I completely forgot about this part with what sounds like a synth, but like I said before it could just be a guitar put through a few effects. It does sound very much like synth, so I guess it's just up for debate on what it really is at this point. I wish I could find anything that confirms whether or not there's any real snyth on this album.
Smashing Pumpkins always nail their guitar tones, their drum sound is great too

Billy was not the vocalist on the last trackof the first disc. That was James - that's why it sounded so different.
Fun Fact: XYU was recorded live - one take in the studio! Raw power captured forever!
That signature sonic Smashing Pumpkins guitar tone is still one of the greatest ever conceived.

As far as I know, there are no credits for synth on this album so it's unlikely that there even is any synth
Edit 2: 23:43 I completely forgot about this part with what sounds like a synth, but like I said before it could just be a guitar put through a few effects.
It does sound very much like synth, so I guess it's just up for debate on what it really is at this point. I wish I could find anything that confirms whether or not there's any real snyth on this album.
This album is amazing
