Default Anyone else anticipating how embarassingly bad the new album is gonna be?

A near 40 year old man beyond his prime putting out a rock album, making declarations of how he's gonna ROCK like never before, an album guided by the spirits of Rush and Grateful Dead, produced by another old dude beyond his prime. Guy is so completely out of touch with reality. This album is gonna be so cheesy and embarassingly bad. And he still hasn't got rid of that of fucking prepubescent idea of some novel about rock star superheroes named Glass and Zero. Anyone else anticipating complete disaster? MACHINA and Zwan and tfe...it just gets progessively worse. This is gonna be hilarious.

Maybe, but I think there will be some decent guitar playing and drumming. I just hope the lyrics are ok...

Imagine if they do actually make a proper metal album, 80s style. That would rock.

I have to say, though, that with as cynical as I've been on this board lately about a lot of this shit, Billy's chances of succeeding with a rock album at the age of 40 are better than 99.9% of other alternative artists out there in the same situation. It may not be 25 year-old Billy, but even 40 year-old Billy is better than fuckin 25 year-old Evanescence or something.

He may not have been entirely... accurate... in what he said, but can you honestly say that you loved Machina, Zwan and TFE more than Siamese Dream, Mellon Collie and Adore? If so, then you're part of the 1% of fans that feel the same way.

i thought you were a machina fanboy, julio.

im of the mind that billy hasn't stopped writing good music. he's only stopped officially releasing it. i'd rather listen to boots of the arising tour, early zwan shows, djali zwan and billy's chicago songs than any of the albums relased in the last 7 years.

Just because the unreleased stuff is "better," though, doesn't mean it was good. If you get what what I'm saying.

man. If you don't like Corgan anymore than stop wasting your time and life on him. Get a life.


I'm here because I like BC and have faith that it will be another pumpkins classic. If I didn't feel that way and thought that he hasn't done anything worth listening to for over a decade THEN I WOULD MOVE ON.

but whatever I feel sorry and embarressed for you.

the true indication of a real fan is honest criticism and a sense of humor, not self-proclamed "faith" and defensiveness.

I think you're confused about who's actually in the wrong place. Because this isn't the place for people who feel the way you feel. This place is for one of the following:

1. Assholes

or

2. People who look at his work critically as opposed to automatically loving everything he puts out, regardless of it being shit, just because it's Billy

Figure out if you fit the description and either leave, be an asshole or provide something relevent to discuss.

So, what's your point? You've given an example of both the 1% and the shittiness of Evanescence... both of which support what I said.

Also surely I'm not the only who sees the reinstating of the name "Smashing Pumpkins" as a blatant cash grab? This is essentially Zwan but with Billy reclaiming "SP" because it would probably sell more or get him more radio play under that moniker. Everything this guy does is so embarassingly translucent.
