I mean, we've had weird-conspiracy-theory actor guy, social media extraordinaire, astrology lady, "Lisa," Jeff, Willow Smith, and his wife.

Same. I'm certain I will grow to appreciate it more, after I listen to the full thing.

My theory is that when Billy tries to write Siamese Dream II, tracks like this come out. He doesn't have the vital stuff of young angst, so there's no oomph behind the pop. Instead, we get something catchy but sterile.

That's why he now tends towards synths and metal chuggers like Beguiled. In that case, he's going back to his original source materials in prog and 70's heavy metal. At least there he can paint a veneer of artistry over the tepid work.

You can see the start of all this in Zeitgeist, when he was absolutely going for a rock classic but it came out over-baked on the outside and raw in the middle. Metal, pop, prog, new wave, all in the wrong proportions.

To his credit, he got closer on Oceania, and a few other spots. I think there he gave himself leeway to write good songs and then produce them. Now, it starts with the production, either because he thinks that's the right way to go, or because the songs just aren't there and he has to.

My theory is that when Billy tried to write Gish, tracks like this came out.

Then he found a suitcase full of tapes next to a lifeless body on the back of his stepmother’s dilapidated house in Glendale Heights, IL and those songs became the classics.

Now when Billy tries to write Siamese Dream II, tracks like this come out.

My theory is Billy spends 90% of his time since Monuments thinking about marketing for SP brand, and then the final 10% of the time making music.

That's why everything sounds so cheesy and not good.. but we're got multiple release channels, podcasts, special designs on the vinyl and autographed limited edition versions, and limited edition crap through ZuZu and media with Joe Rogan and Alex Jones, etc.

.
Certainly you wouldn't expect him to have the same angst. But when I listen to recent albums by, I don't know, Pearl Jam, Pixies, Built to Spill, etc., they still sound like those bands. Not as good as their prime, but recognizably them.

The recent SP stuff, other than Corgan's obvious voice, might as well be a completely different artist.

Maybe The Alter is right and he found a box of demo tapes. IIRC, Hummer, Today and Disarm were all written after a long case of writer's block.

but he doesn't even perform or sing or do anything the same to that "90s guy" at all

the theory about an alien corgan abducting & replacing him, either immediately following Machina or even Zeitgeist (depending on your "angle") is still more plausible 2 me

The song will be part of the Murder Mystery 2 soundtrack. I movie I didn't even know existed, with a Adam Sandler.

the fact that its relegated to one of Sandler's very, very bad modern comedies pretty much says it all

put this on an Uncut Gems or something of that nature, then we'll know the boys are back!

That is bizarre; this had to have been a deal SP camp struck, right?

Sandler has said he makes movies like this pretty much entirely so that he and his friends can vacation somewhere cool, and I support both his honesty and his goals.

hearing a random ATUM track pop up during this thing will almost definitely be the funniest part of the movie

when's the watch party?

Whereas Corgan could do the same, if he just wrote us another Siamese Dream like he said he could easily do, just doesn't feel like.

I see I have put myself in the position of comparing Atum to Uncut Gems and SD2 to Murder Mystery 2. Darkest timeline indeed.

I’m sorry you had to go thru a whole Adam Sandler movie. That’s dedication.

please remove/replace all songs except Limp Bizkit. I think that would be the ultimate master stroke.

Someone is actually doing an edit of big daddy for my friend rn… it’s his absolute favorite and he got some random guy online to cut out parts of the ending so Zach and Cody don’t get separated from Adam Sandler… I personally don’t care for the film but appearently everyone is all into it or something
