      It really is a great album. I love how he constantly tries new sounds.
      This album is very much NOT overthought imo....it's kinda basic...very simple electronic drums....with washed out shoe-gaze/dream-pop guitars. It's kinda cool. Some songs are duds....but several are truly beautiful.

    The burden of being ahead of your time... Now people will go back and listen to TFE and be blown away, when it got tepid reactions when it was released and Billy was playing small clubs with no pub/no airplay. Sorta like the end of the Oceania era into the Monuments tour, no one really cared and he still soldiered on with hired hands and no budget.

    There are people who get incredible sounds out of the right amp setup. This sound could be easily replicated by pushing an old Roland delay or chorus head to its limits through the right cab.
    He also doesn't really change his effects settings; pedals could just be kept off screen to present a cleaner look for TV.

      Maybe he opted to have someone else offstage operate his effects during this time. He's not the only one to do this, I've seen at least one who did it that way. With the stuff going on with TheFutureEmbrace, maybe he just felt he could do the material live better if he could just concentrate on playing the guitar and singing without having to tap dance on a load of pedals.

      One song on a TV show. He'd just have one part of his otherwise gargantuan rig sitting out back. Mina Loy only needed one guitar track, as did a lot of other songs on the record. Corgan dialled in a solitary signal path and used it as a paintbrush for the canvas so to speak.

    • @johnmordecai2776
      @johnmordecai2776 7 лет назад +3

      Yeah, to piggy-back, his effects were controlled off-stage. The guitar sounds on this album/tour were mostly the same from song-to-song also. He's said so in interviews. He was in a big "break from the past" frame of mind at the time.

    • @austinmark1987
      @austinmark1987 5 лет назад

      John Mordecai this is exactly how it’s done. Billy’s guitar tech is managing the tones from song to song on this tour from off stage, on a macro level. Billy still had some control on a micro level of his tone. This allowed for a cleaner “look” and aesthetic on stage.

    • @johnmordecai2776
      @johnmordecai2776 3 года назад +3

      @@austinmark1987 At the very least, it's pretty dense for someone to think that it can't be done. "I don't see any pedals, so it must be fake." Especially watching this, it's clear he's actually playing. It's obvious when people are sync-ing to pre-recorded tracks; the guitar is very obviously being played. I think "guitar people" just don't know how to handle anything that come off like "guitar music." And I say that as a guitar person.
