Ogilala was like listening to nothing I couldn't make it through a song
but not because it was offensively bad ala ZG |

i do agree about ogilala though. i think i hate ZG the most because that's when i actually dilsiked the majority of the songs on first impression, and it only worsened from there

Zwan was definitely the beginning of the end of my Corgan fandom. Especially when it blew up and Billy started bashing everyone in the press. I started thinking then, “okay maybe billy is really the problem here.”

I've only heard Solara and seen its music video
Apparently the other songs are much better and the album as a whole is kind of okay? |

We already had Zeitgeist nicknamed Shitegeist. If we're going to nickname Shiny, then it's only fair that we nickname them all
Shitesh Siamese Shite Piscese Ishiteiot Shitephoria Mellon Shite and the Infinite Shite The Aeroplane Shites High Ashite MASHITEA/the mashites of God MASHITEA II/the friends & enemies of modern shite Shitegeist Teargarden by Kashiteyscope Vol 1: Shites for a Sailor Teargarden by Kashiteyscope Vol 2: The Solshite Bare Oshiteania Monuments to an Eleshite Shitey and Oh So Shite Vol 1. / LP: No Past.

Teargarden felt like pulling teeth after it was hyped up SO MUCH by Billy. The waits were excruciating and it dragged on sooooooooooo long. Once he finally ditched that and eventually made a traditional album and then hyped that up to no end and for it to be merely mediocre, it sorta clicked that the magic wouldn't be returning. With that said, Monuments actually restored a little faith in me. It was the first release since Zeitgeist where I actually liked a handful of songs, but now the last 2 albums have been total snoozers and misses. Ogilala I kind of liked 1 song and I only kind of like 1 song on Shiny... Not a very good ratio. |

it honestly kind of blows my mind that anyone would actively like Monuments then go in calling Shiny an utter piece of shit - they're really not that different, it's just one has James Iha & Jimmy Chamberlin occasionally becoming visible through all the Rubin

I tried to listen to it a few times, but end up skipping most songs. So no, never in full. I tried.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for Jimmy to drum his ass off all the time, some of my favorite parts of his are the restrained nuanced parts, but this album just doesn't have anything interesting... Maybe it's a simple fact that he doesn't have anything to work with with these lackluster songs. Last edited by fuzzyroes : 11-28-2018 at 11:14 PM. |

So chamberlin and iha are back, but sonically nothing has changed. Honestly it s disappointing that iha and chamba were not allowed to contribute much( at least i don' t hear their strengths). It s still the belzebub one man show. Last nite i was watching the shiny show from seattle. It is so embarrassing how it is all about bill.the videos, the stupid pope statue and the change of outfits. Disarm was sung horribly. God, he isnt michael jackson,bowie, u2 or pink floyd. He is an embittered person who had success in the alternative niche 25 years ago. It feels like some old retirees playing umotivated their songs. Maybe thesekind of narcisstic 3 hour shows work in usa. But as we know- there was zero interest worldwide( except 2 dates) in having the bolly 3 h show |

I actually like this album, and most of Monuments. Solara and Knights of Malta have grown on me. Silvery Sometimes and Marchin' On are the best. With Sympathy and Seek and You Shall Destroy are good. Alienation too.
Travels is the worst song on shiny. It's bad. |

I love that every post of yours is like "I hate this band with every fiber of my being, also I just watched three hours of them performing to reaffirm that, as I now do daily"

How so? Monuments was clearly the A-batch of material.
Check out Pitchfork media, they gave Monuments a far better rating than Shiny too. I think people are just biased with this new music because of the Iha/Chamberlin factor. |

Monuments sucked. Shiny sucks. Does it really matter which album was slightly less shitty?

If you took all the good songs on Monuments and all the good songs on Shiny and put them together you would have... half an album.

Actually i am a fan and want them to be successful, but somehow i've got angry and frustrated cause i was hoping that james and jim save the sinking ship. I like some songs on shiny, but overall the sp dont play any role in today's music business. Actually they haven't for the last 11 years. Either u love em or u hate em. I obviously do both. I dont believe 50 per cent of bollzis answers on insta. Or does anyone believe that the fans love the new album, only because some posted their love for it? If you post any criticism about it u get blocked or publicly bashed via IG. He hasnt posted one negative post about shiny. And if he did, he made fun of fans and behaved like a miffed child. |
