Haven't seen any discussion of this WHOLLY un-necessary addition to the CYR vinyl-a-thon (sponsored by Sumerian and Madame Zuzu's) - but wow.

https://store.smashingpumpkins.com/p...ingles-box-set

A few thoughts:

1.) This is what the album SHOULD have been. Ten songs. Then they could have done this as a box-set of b-sides. SAOSBV2.5. The original album at 20 songs and nearly 75 minutes is just too damn much.

2.) I could really go for the Siddartha hack that we used to see how many had sold so we could track sales data over time. I would be BEYOND curious to see how many of those 1,000 have sold. Now that we're over a week out, I think it's safe to say it will never sell out and stacks of these will land above the mens room toilets at Zuzu's along with the remaining 300+ Siddartha boxes.

3.) These 7" boxsets just do nothing for me. So impractical to listen to, and if the artwork is really something special it mayyyy catch my eye as a collectible, but yeah, this one ain't that.

Saw some clickbait on this shit that suggested it was like shadow drop “SAOSBNFPENIS VOL 2”

But in actuality it’s just the shitty singles from Cyr? What’s the fucken point

“How is the Cyr vinyl?”

Well it has Cyr on it, so…

But seriously, (I like Cyr) the singles box set is bizarre. It doesn’t even feature the best tracks on the album.

All Netphorian assholery aside - what would you say the best tracks are? Maybe I'm missing something.

The only one that has stood out to me in any degree/form/fashion aside from the "big" songs off of it is Starrcraft and that title makes me wince just typing it out... but it's a decent cut. I seriously can't plow through so many of those songs on the back half of ten. It's ROUGH back there. I think "I'll listen to just this one, isolated away from the others and will see if it's got a special vibe/flavor to it" and I find that, no, no it does not, and can't get all the way thru it.

If it wasn’t already punishment enough to actually listen to the songs, now the masochistic Pumpkin fan can also add a physical task to perform between each song. The Bald Lord smiles.

cy-what? not to be too cynical, but the way cyr came and went in a blink of an eye makes it look like a quick cash-grab to keep the band afloat after a year of nothing. put out whatever, milk the completists and collectors through countless editions and box sets. ever since he started hanging out with libertarians, neoliberals and con-men entrepeneurs, like alex jones, billy seems to be preoccupied with SP being a business venture. and this is what a failing business does. milk it before it's not profitable anymore. i'm surprised he didn't put rainbow flags all over his social media for the pride month or did some limited rainbow covers for cyr and other albums.

I was with you until the bit where you were surprised Billy didn’t do this mental thing you just thought of, laced with an undercurrent of homophobia.
