Smashing Pumpkins - New CD
 

I have to say, I am REALLY surprised it is as good as it is. Billy has really 'found' the old school feeling. It seems like he has a type of song from all his records. Has the Gish hard core jam and the Siamese "Today" type feel.

Really pumped about it

Scav..I'll forgive your Sox WS post ( 3 ys in a row?), but curious about your Pumpkins post. I LOVE old Pumpkins ( Cherub, Stand Inside, Untitled etc) but haven't quite got the same love affair with this new stuff ( yet). I think Jimmy is too bombastic because he is a true "Pumpkin" and they play that up and Billy is too out there as well. Look at those earlier songs I mentioned..Billy is subtle..well, subtle for Billy and it's all James and the wall of guitar

Pretty much anway you cut it they are a very good band. I like the earlier stuff a lot more too.

Agreed..half a smashed Pumpkin is better than no smashed Pumpkins

They are one of my top 10 bands

If you can find their performance of Cherub Rock on Saturday Night Live on You Tube, or anywhere..check it out. That's when I was hooked

Im on the Youtube now listening to some music. Ill see if I can find it. Nothing like YOutubing good music, going over charts, and reading DT

couldn't have said it better myself.

For some reason I saw Fall Out Boy on The Today Show Friday morning..I really want to like them ( from Chicago, etc) but I just don't get it. I'm glad young people have a passion for music, but I guess I'm getting old.

Saw The Smithereens Thursday night at our town's fest..5TH time seeing them...awesome

They had one song that I really liked. Otherwise they arent much.

I like the Killers, they are newish.

I liked Arms Race though..I'll listen again. Need a "new" band to get hooked on..Allman Brothers will be dead soon...

The cds in my car are

Cars Anthology
The Killers
Bare Naked Ladies
Kiss greatest
Baby and Lil Wayne (stuttin like my daddy)
Air supply

Thats the rotation this week

Obviously the last one was a typo...

ha, nah thats not a typo, Ive always liked them. They relax me. I have the trans siberian Orchesra that I sub in and out for AS

I'm with you on Jimmy ..It's a good album .oops..CD...ooops..download.

White Stripes rock, My Morning Jacket..excellent

Like the BNL they are actually pretty solid.

Does anyone know what the song was Mike Tyson used to enter the ring to was? It was DMX but I dont remember the song

Jayhawks hold that spot in my rotation.
fyi...Saw Kansas last night ( night after Smithereens.. sorry..they are awesome)..but Kansas?? oh god...horrible...Played 90 minutes of nothing and then Dust and Carry...

Forget the new stuff for a minute, how did the old stuff sound? Couldn't have been that bad..please..

You guys like the better than ezra, pretty solid band.

Better than Ezra for $200 ( w/out googling)
Where are they from?

Click my link, great live version of that song

I like them a lot, theyve always been a very good band. Kind of fly under the radar

Ding-Ding..nice job

Say Anything is one of the best current bands out there. . . Fallout Boy's old stuff is superior to their two most recent debacles. . .

I wonder why they never really were a huge huge band. You can listen to any cd from top to bottom and its always really good.

I could never get into them,they were like nascar for me. I couldnt see what the hype was about

How about the Cranberries, I like them alot, always liked them and they are that era

Jealousy is one of my guilty pleasures

Now..I have to go here
Gin Blossoms for $300...Where are they from?

Damn..I gotta' pull out the heavy artillery
