Much of the melody from the bridge of Violet Rays sounds like Billy wrote it in five minutes, and that after watching Cats on Broadway or something. It should either be rewritten or he should have just left it off.

Once the opinionated middle-class American netphorians wake up, they'll back me up. Surely netphoria can come up with 40 comments for Billy.

Assuming it would take 1 minute to review the subject at hand and then another minute to write it down, that would mean you are asking me to invest nearly a hour and a half into something that will never be seen by Billy Corgan nor taken into consideration. Furthermore, what motive would I have to invest my personal time into the music of someone else if I personally receive no benefit from it?
A better use of my time--and yours--is to use that hour and a half instead to make your own music, and review ways to improve that, just as scotty was implying. Why dwell on the music made by someone you don't even know, while you could be expressing yourself and making something for yourself? |

Is that intro for pinwheels really necessary? I've listened to the album a handful of times now, and that intro is not growing on me.
Also, the album has hints of a psychedelic sound, but clearly it's coming from a songwriter that is not using psychedelics. |

That's gotta be the dumbest thing I've ever heard on Netphoria. Didn't know you needed to use psychedelics to make a psychedelic sound. Wayne Coyne doesn't use LSD anymore, but his music is clearly still psychedelic.

My statement was made mostly tongue-in-cheek. Still, I doubt it's just a coincidence that some of the most innovative and truly moving music was created by people who were actively using psychedelics.

the energy of the band is off kilter. For one, there's no jealousy within it. Billy was fighting against the world (and Seattle) and his own bandmates and himself when they came of age. I'm sure there were times he was fed up with all 3 of the original members and be like, "fuck it, I'll show them..." and off he went to overachieving land.
Now...the music lacks for me because I can see this lack of chemistry between the leader of this band and his hired guns with Zero internal conflict between any of them. It's too comfortable a setting and I don't feel any edge from this group anymore --despite all the big sounds and production and riffs and conka-conka drums, etc. |
