I reckon TGBK has no dignity at all.
The whole thing was about the groundbreaking business model. The actual music seemed like an after thought? |

Astral Planes coulda been good? I quite like the intro. It sounds like there's some cool guitar stuff going on. King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard or whatever they're calleds "I'm In Your Mind" album is that kinda thing but decent ???

It's pretty proggy and grand in scope. It is a really good album that is held down by the Pumpkins moniker. It just doesn't feel like a Pumpkins album, and that's it's major problem. Still, it's one of my favorite Pumpkins albums.

Because Billy said it was a masterpiece weeks/months before it was even released. For some reason, the fans and the press swallowed it whole. I can't listen to "Oceania" in one sitting. Lame, lame album.

Monuments sounds much more cohesive and tight. It's only too bad that the lyrical approach is so straightforward. But it's a lot more sonically pleasing. It blows Oceania outta the water as far as I'm concerned. |

It just reeked of Corgan going through the motions with a bottom feeder backing band. |

I honestly think the Panopticon is one of the most embarrassing songs Corgans ever wrote. It was like he was determined to go back to the Siamese Dream vibe to prove that he could, but the result is something that's just so bland, sterile and boring. The hooks and melodies are so weak, no surprises, no peaks and valleys to keep the listener interested... Just a total fail as far as I'm concerned.
