yeah i recognize the relationship with warner, and i honestly don't understand why he went through them initially and did this type of method when SP came back. would have brought the band better publicity initially, because this is working for him in that regards now.
and now he's figured out a way to cut out the middle man and he's calling it groundbreaking while other artists have been releasing/promoting/selling their music this way for a while now. my point is that there's really nothing truly unique about this except the concept of the gradual release of 44 songs. but he's not going to walk away from this project profitless, but some fans are making him out to be a hero for giving this away for 'free.' I say good for him, but this is nothing spectacularly unusual or groundbreaking. having fans DL music for free is a normal loss for an artist now, he's just putting that control in his hands. |

The story of the album is based on 'The Fool's Journey', as signified in the progress of the Tarot. It is my intention to approach this by breaking down the journey of our life here into four phases as made by these different characters; the Child, the Fool, the Skeptic, and the Mystic.
am i the only one who finds this to be funny as shit????????? i mean hooray for new pumpkins music, but someone needs to tell bill every album does not have to be a fucking concept album. or concept 4 ep boxed sex |

Well its free, like Machina II, its concept like Machina, it is going back to its roots like Gish, its being done in phases like Mellon Collie.
Now just add the bit that makes it Siamese Dreamy. Can't say he ain't trying to please everyone there. |

MCIS was envisioned as 6 vinyl sides... +5 singles of b-sides... that's at least like 11 eps of 4 songs.
formula works for me. I like songs, I like lots of songs even better. |

It's be nice to hear it like that though. The one song at a time is going to piss me off. If they're recording four songs at a time then they should make it so the ep is available before the free download goes live. You pay money, you follow the progression, you see it first. Is this going to be the subscription model?
It's certainly interesting. Is the album going to be released in order? If The Trip is going to be the first release, it's a strange opener to a 44 song concept album. Maybe not lyrically though? |

I really think they should hunker down in the studio and record all this before going on tour. Sure, they might get to test some songs out before they're recorded and all that, but I can't imagine staying focused on a project or remaining "in the zone" amidst touring. It also seems counter-productive to the whole "no more old songs" mentality.

i mean the great thing is it's 44 songs, so out of this at least 12 songs will be awesome.
i see this as being something great, that i will delete all the shitty songs from and burning a totes rocking 12 to 15 song album, and being really happy with that. it seems though that corgan is just trying to trap himself in this pumpkins box, and just keep digging up graves of mellon collie to make the fans happy. but that makes sence sence all the 'fans' give him so much shit about trying anything new and exciting. |

Depends on the touring. If it's six dates in a particular region it shouldn't be too difficult. It's not going to happen but they should play some small venues in the UK as Spirits in the Sky - Bill doesn't give a fuck about the UK though. |

As soon as the sale figures for the first two eps are in, he'll cancel it and call us ignorant idiots who aren't enlightened or something. C'mon!
I'd be happy if all the stuff is recorded at once, though. Would make it sound more like an actual album. I really don't care for FOL or GLOW-Singles x 44. |

i seriously doubt they had a vinyl release in mind when they were making mellon collie and the infinite sadness: if i'm not mistaken, there wasn't going to be a vinyl release of the album at first. a couple of months later, they changed their mind.
