So the whole thing is finally on Spotify minus the bonus stuff. Wow, Act 3 is rough. There’s hardly anything listenable there aside from maybe two or three songs. Some of the most boring and aimless work I’ve ever heard from Corgan. No SP magic there at all.

As for act 3.. I think it’s my favorite of the acts :shrug

Sojourner sounds incredible on a nice system.. has more depth to it than I remembered. Canary trainer is best song on the record imo, and of the heavier songs I like harmaggedon best. And it has spellbinding which is one of the better radio aimed songs I’ve heard from them for a long time.

Canary trainer is the one where he sings about rectum.

For the first time, I won't even be illegally downloading the latest crappy Smashing Pumpkins album.

NME - stopped being relevant about 10 years ago when the magazine folded.

"The good trax"

Why do you think these fabled artifacts exist?

Act 3 is my favorite as well. The softer and slower songs such as Canary Trainer, Fireflies, and Cenotaph are stand outs for me.

my continual complaint of 'who gives a shit what reviewers think' stands strong

either when they give bullshit 4 stars to trash, or 'just asking questions' horseshit contrarian 1 stars to quality

They still haven’t added the lyrics to Of Wings on the WPCThirtyThree website.

To me Act III is a couple of turgid uninspired rockers (Empires, Harmageddon, whatever that Zero song is) and then a bunch of very sparse synth meandering on songs that sound half baked and underdeveloped. The slow tracks go absolutely nowhere. Easily the weakest of the three parts in my view. My playlist on Spotify has 16 tracks. Much like Cyr this album suffers from poor self-editing and over half of it is disposable.

yeah guys that whole review and headline are just cover-ups

I got a screencap of the original review page before they swapped it out w/ the payola one



rationale for even giving the 4 stars was "it's at least kinda funny for 4 songs, after that you're practically drowning."

Hearing this entire thing together works really well. Act 2 goes transitions into 3 really well. Really happy with how this project turned out overall.

I'd like to congratulate all those who can listen to ATUM in its entirety and remain focused on the music.
