Yay for an announcement of an announcement! This is sure to fail!

Eulogy · 02-28-2012, 08:20 PM

oh jesus christ

stop with the fucking gimmicks and release a goddamn album

MyOneAndOnly · 02-28-2012, 08:20 PM

WTF?

Sounds like there's no record deal

Can'tt wait to give that gay hater more money huh.

"Superfans" huh. Im sure he'll be using that prop 8 supporter monte. Be ready to rush to his website.

Mablak · 02-28-2012, 08:32 PM

People don't want to devote their lives to one fucking album, they just want to hear good music. It's just annoying to create extra work for the listener.

Not that it affects me. I'm 100% committed to never listening to this shitty album. But I do look forward to seeing everyone tear it to shreds.

Robert Paulson · 02-28-2012, 08:37 PM

This sounds so fucking gay. Also, this is a terrible story. About 600 words of: "Corgan is going to say something. We don't know what it is, but we think it is something." What an insightful article

MyOneAndOnly · 02-28-2012, 09:02 PM

Just a marketing campaign

UPDATE:*For any fans worried about this being a pure digital release, Crestfallen.com has learned it will have a traditional physically released and that the marketing side will be different than normal.

“The concept that we’re not releasing this record like normal at all,” she said. “The key is that when we release the record, we’re not going to release single a viral video. You’re going to take the record a have a full online experience with it.”

Either the writer of this story didn't have the luxury of copywriting his own work, or he's speaking in a dialect that only Machina mystery code crackers can understand.

great poster · 02-28-2012, 09:22 PM

i just want a normal release.

reprise85 · 02-28-2012, 09:32 PM

seriously

he hit it out of the park with the double album idea and it went to his head

I am not in favor of obtaining any part of Oceania through Monte or other "super fans". Hopefully they are not involved with the release of Oceania.

Ball Sack Face · 02-28-2012, 10:31 PM

I wonder if Kerry thought everything Billy's done the past 5 years is shit, but stayed with him in case he had one more hit in him.

iPumpkin · 02-28-2012, 10:38 PM

Who fucking cares. One day this shit will be on Pirate Bay and none of this shit will matter.

but he's going to revolutionize the music industry! one day. when he gets it right!

Ball Sack Face · 02-28-2012, 10:54 PM

A social networking revolution, like bands releasing songs on the internet and talked about on blogs.

hafsteinn · 02-28-2012, 10:57 PM

Just releasing an album and letting the music do the talking.
that would be to easy, now he at least can indulge his ego as well have a system to blame when no one really buys the album. In the past he sure has talked like he knows the recording industry but judging by how he has routinely destroyed every resemblence of a community around his band for inane reasons he sure does not.

hafsteinn · 02-28-2012, 11:00 PM

If he would one day just release an album, no announcements of announcements. Just put it online, then he would get a little respect from me.

Ball Sack Face · 02-28-2012, 11:12 PM

everyone everyone yeah
