Smashing Pumpkins

[Corvian]

It's no secret that Billy Corgan is a great guitar player, but now that there will be drums in the game you just simply have to have the Pumpkins because of Jimmy Chamberlin ... one of the greatest drummers on the face of the earth. So any Pumpkins song would be great.  BTW: If it's true what everybody who has heared it already writes then their new album "Zeitgeist" which will be released in July will blow our socks off.

CHERUB ROCK (would be great as one of the easier songs, maybe)!

</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>QFT.&nbsp;
Although I'm skeptical of Zeitgeist, as Iha has not been confirmed to
actually be back in the band.&nbsp; In that case, we may just be
getting a rehashed Zwan, which I wasn't crazy about in the first
place.&nbsp; I just haven't been all that impressed by Corgan's
songwriting for awhile.&nbsp; But being a complete Smashing Pumpkins
basketcase, I still have to hold out hope &nbsp;</p>

<P>James Iha said he's not coming back!!! Which is upsetting...</P>

<P>So, yeah, in terms of band members, it's almost Zwan V.2, but hopefully the sound will be more of a return to the Smashing&nbsp;Pumpkins...</P>
<P>What's your favourite work / album&nbsp;by the Pumpkins?</P>

[Corvian]

<p>Zwan was not Zwan because Iha wasn't in but because of the other members and because of what Billy wanted to do with the band. So I wouldn't worry.</p><p>I mean, Siamese Dream was also done almost without Iha (and Darcy) and turned out to be the best SP album (for me at least)&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;The people who say that the new Album kicks a** know what theya are talking about so I can't wait for Zeitgeist.&nbsp; <br></p>

</p><p>&nbsp;Actually, Iha co-wrote several of the songs on Siamese Dream.&nbsp; The one that comes to mind is "Mayonnaise," but there were several others.&nbsp; Billy may have recorded all the guitars, but he didn't write that album alone.</p>

I think if Billy's confident enough with what he's done to call the band "The Smashing Pumpkins" again, then it should be brilliant...

[HmxGeoff]

Yep, i'll definitely be picking it up.&nbsp; At the very least, i get to see them tour again <br>

Wouldnt Zero be the best song for Rock band? (maybe im just thinkin of that soley cuz of the guitar)

You're probably right, although personally I'd love to see Jellybelly...
