"So, what did the burglars steal? Money? Guitars? The album's master tapes? Nope. It appears-- though it is not officially confirmed-- that the fans stole photographs somehow associated with Zeitgeist, possibly album art or video stills. The photos were then leaked to the Pumpkins fan site . The images i.ncluded: -- Paris Hilton posing in front of a backdrop of a bomb exploding -- The Grim Reaper standing at a podium emblazoned with the Seal of the President of the United States, in front of a black and white Smashing Pumpkins flag -- A person in a business suit wearing a devil mask and being crucified -- Five blonde children saluting -- Close-up of Billy Corgan in a hoodie -- Billy Corgan in a hoodie, standing next to a woman with no shirt on took down the photos and posted a statement, saying, "What this person did amounts to theft and band takes this very seriously as does . I know everyone here is hungry for more information on the new album but this is not the way to go about it. Nobody here should condone or be supportive of the actions this individual took...The band requested the stolen pictures be removed and I believe they are well within their right to do so..." Thanks to reader Byron Barnes for alerting us to the situation and for directing us to ." all together now: L-O-L |
