Also this.
And Billy made eye contact with me then spat on the stage like looking at me disgusted him

[Gooch]

LOl Someone DID a Borat remix of Knights of Malta when it first came out. Idk where it is. Utube?

Yeah I checked it’s on there. I can’t link to it tho.

“ The smashing pumpkins knights of Malta but with borat “ is the title. It’s a hoot!

If you think Billy Corgan to be doing the "Pumpkins Super Fan" account, he must have become a "Wretzky Super Fan" too in the end:






Joking at their best:

You hear glorious warmth and fuzz and beautiful saturated tape.

It's honestly renewed my interest in machina, which is one of my favorite albums.

It is weird how much more present the rhythm section is on this than, say, the CD. It’s not super dramatically different but it is different. You hear the drums and bass, not just have your speakers absolutely flattened by them. Nice thing I’ll come back to

[houseofglass11]

Yeah it’s a really lively sounding mix. Everything jumps out more and it’s not as harsh as the CD version.

[ButterflyBullet]

Would someone be kind enough to send me a link to the Machina cassette rip? Y'all got me curious now.

[Rairun]

Same, please.

[Funbags]

CASSETTE MIX POR FAVOR

[Ihaguitar]

It's probably on soulseek

[Joey Goldberg]

lordy jakob really "opened a can" bringing up that Machine tape eh? prayers & thoughts w you jakob, prayers & thoughts!

[jakobtheliar]

Yeah. To everyone. I found it on SS. There's also a cassette rip of the ava Adore single (sounds really good, nothing dramatic, just fuller sounds and of course any kind of delay sounds better on tape.) There's a rip of nevermind that sounds gorgeous.

Thank you internet music nerds for your hardwork.
I'm still looking for a MCIS cassette rip bc that, in my mind, sounded differently and more beautiful on tape. Especially the guitars on tonight.

[Ihaguitar]

Won't it depend on what cassette deck it's played on?

[enthusaroo]

[Ihaguitar]

The Orchard Music have blocked that video in my country.

Didn't we have 3 versions of AoI like?

[Rairun]

The vocal distortion was the right choice for that song - it gives it such a nostalgic/bittersweet feeling. Good job, 1999 Bill, I guess.

[Ihaguitar]

Need to listen to it it's a song that doesnt really pop into my head.

[Shallowed]

bruh Age of Innocence is one of the best songs of the Machina era

[houseofglass11]

I remember the first recording we heard of AOI was from the bridge school benefit show I believe. Fan response to the song was really positive and I guess that’s why he added it.

[FoolofaTook]

Yep.

IotM
SIYL
TT
Wound
AOI

God-tier Machina I trax

Add Vanity, Home, Speed Killz (HEAVY), and BSBT (Arising) and you have a perfect album.

[Shadaloo]

They're mixing Let Me Give The World To You at the moment

Billy's gone off the idea to use crowd noise for that planned concert segment

[T&T]

he's probably still using and needs the $$$ to pay for the ChinaWhite

[Reyngel]

Didn’t he record the “Before the rites of spring...” part of AOI by singing into the pickups of his guitar? Same with the “Black rooms are calling...” part of GATGC.

Or am I misremembering?

I still have my Gish and Siamese Dream cassettes. They weren't played much either as I used to make copies to listen to.

I never had MCIS on cassette though, I'd got into CD by that stage. What is the best method for ripping a cassette to digital? I still have a Yamaha cassette deck.

That's so unlike him

[vajohna]

So do we think Billy will try to have the Machina II vinyl rips out there taken down once this thing's released?
