Yep, it's been known for a while. The new track is pretty good, reminds me of old days SP.

So did this happen when he made the announcement in the Chicago newspaper?

Do you know who is in the new band?

[Thelonious Monk]

billy corgan and jimmy chamberlin. nobody else from the original band.

edit: i really really don't like the vocals on this song so far.

Oh, I guess the album must be close then? I'm trying to remain cautiously optimistic but part of me just wants to get excited.

For those wondering the new album is kinda bland. It sounds rushed and written without inspiration.

agreed. layered vocals are kinda cool though. actually, it's better than expected. 6/10

I'll try going to one of their "secret" shows in DC next week, but so far the album is just ok, but I'm only on my first listen.

If you're capable of going I would do it.

I saw Billy live in Boston for his solo album, and even though the music wasn't that great he really has an amazing stage presence and they put on a good show. And he might have done this only because it was a small venue but he hung around for a while after the show and talked to people. I gave him a good ribbing about the Cubs, and I got it right back (I believe this was before the Red Sox won the World Series)

All I know is that the Pumpkins new bass player is cute as hell!
