The production on that track is very typical of Brad Wood though, the instrumentation and use of atmospheric sounds reminds me of a lot of his work (for instance on the Ben Lee record "Awake is the New Sleep"). So in Wood's defence is sounds like he did mentally show up for work at some point during that day of tracking.

Hmm. Shouldn't've fired him then, that's the best sounding track on the album

it's hard to compare because to sheila is the only song on the album in that vein.

maybe once upon a time. The acoustic guitar is the primary instrumental focus on to sheila which isn't really the case with any other Adore songs.

I fucken love czarina. Sometimes I can overcome the whirlwind of temporal desires from whence springs most of my sufferings and if I'm in that rhythm of peaceful contentedness that song is like wearing a little crown made of puro bliss n relaxation
Or something fuck |

I think it's funny how you guys assume that anyone that was fired by Billy was better than those ones who had no problems working with him. Like, now even Butch Vig is only a arse kisser.

I remember Corgan's statement that Wood used production to cover bad songwriting, but this is a typical Billy statement. It sounds legitimate at a glance, but what the hell does that really mean. It seems like a lame excuse to essentially say, "I did not like how the producer worked so I chose to take over the album myself." As for Adore as a whole, I think the opening and closing segments of the album sound fantastic and represent some of Billy's best songwriting. It's the middle chunk that usually has me running for the skip button, and those are songs largely helmed by Corgan himself. |

Matt left the band cause it wasn't working out. He said in a interview that Billy was lost and didn't know where to go with the album. He decided to not go with them back to Chicago.
About Wood, Billy also mentioned that he was not giving any inputs to the process of recording, that was not what he was looking for. He was looking for someone with ideas, criticism... in other words, not an arse kisser. |

adore is flawed. they should have done two albums, a mellow acoustic folksy one, and cyber metal one with jimmy rockin like a metal god on songs like cash car star, saturnine, and, of course, the utterly visceral BECAZ U RRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

Can you imagine the shit he put Mike Byrne through if he treated Matt Walker like that, who's a seasoned pro?

that would basically destroy all that is subtle, dynamic, and fluid about Adore. You would have one solid but very downbeat quiet album, and a loud album with like 2 truly good songs and a lot of filler.

yeah i agree.
people seem to like the idea of a record that has a bit of everything. while i love the sprawling kind of aesthetic too, i really like when an album goes in one particular direction, and does so unapologetically. i love how adore totally stands out in the SP catalogue. it's so downbeat and dark |

in contrast to adore, we finally got the 80min album split onto two disks with M2E & D4N.
the lead single off D4N is already a hit. Baby AJ and Roustabout are the best things about 2016 so far! |

For me, Shame, Behold the Night Mare and For martha pretty much get me there in any event. Adore is Corgan at his least egoic. Which is why it continues to age well. |

I'd love to hear Jeff writing more for the Pumpkins. This jam sounds amazing...
