Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness (2012 Remastered)

Horrible horrible

Pumpkins have to two great albums that should be in any 90’s collection. Those would be Siamese Dream and Of course this one. Skip the rest of their catalog 👍

This has to be the best album The Smashing Pumpkins has ever put out. Don’t get me wrong, ATUM is a great epic, and Pisces Iscariot is a neat collection, but if I had to recommend only one Smashing Pumpkins record, it’s gotta be Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness. Rockers, atmospheric melodies, soaring music - there’s such a wide variety of music here. Even ATUM, a triple album with 33 tracks, can’t compare to the 28 presented here (but is a competent record as well as being something of a pseudo-threequel). Long story short, if you had to start with any SP album, definitely start here. Put bluntly, it’s ablsolutely amazing. Highlights: “1979”, “Bullet With Butterfly Wings”, “Zero”.

I think this is the album where the Smashing Pumpkins hit their peak. Everything after this is hit or miss. An excellent record.

Absolutely perfect in every way.

These songs would sound great if they were sung by someone without a whiny, nasally voice. The instrumental parts of the songs are terrific. Corgan should have let someone else be the singer in SPs.

Tonight,tonight and 1979 are my favs on this album

One of the greatest albums of all time.

I want to say thank you for the amazing guitar rift which turned into Slow Down by why dont we. As a limelight for life, it’s really cool how they used your sample. I love this song so much though. It’s such a bop 🔥🔥🔥

This is one of the best albums ever released
