Hyundai Kicks Off Super Bowl Advertising With All-New Genesis Coupe Debut

Revelant info:

Quote:

Hyundai Motor America enlisted Smashing Pumpkins lead singer Billy Corgan and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin to provide a rock soundtrack befitting the all-new Genesis Coupe in its debut national advertising campaign. The Smashing Pumpkins band members and cellist Yo-Yo Ma will each perform songs to accompany uniquely edited 30-second spots, tailored to their brand of music by editor Hank Corwin. Hyundai selected the Smashing Pumpkins spot to be featured immediately before the kick off of Super Bowl XLIII on Sunday, February 1, 2009.

Smashing Pumpkins scored a new track titled "FOL," to serve as the soundtrack for its version of "The Epic Lap."

"The combination of Hyundai's exciting new Genesis Coupe matched with music performed by Smashing Pumpkins offers the perfect 'kick-off' to Super Bowl advertising," said Joel Ewanick, vice president, Marketing, Hyundai Motor America. "From rock to classical, our Genesis Coupe ads demonstrate the two personalities of the car, which was designed for all types of driving enthusiasts."

Thank god Billy isn't doing albums anymore. Did you know that if the Beatles were still around, they wouldn't be doing albums? They'd be doing car commercials. Kids don't listen to albums these days. It's all about the singles, and car commercials. People say they listen to albums but obviously they don't. They only listen to car commercials. The album thing has been done, car commercials are the only path left. Radical new ideas to the mainstream. Car commercials. Why should a guitar hero play guitar hero.
