Album of the week

Teargarden by Kaleidyscope is not technically an album, but a collection of two EPs along with Oceania and Monuments to an Elegy. It was originally conceived as an ambitious 44-song concept album loosely inspired by the Tarot, with each song being released individually as a free download. Billy Corgan said he considers the sound a return to the Pumpkins' "psychedelic roots", and told MusicRadar it found him "looking past, present and future all at the same time and trying to have that perspective". After 34 tracks were released, the project was abandoned. Nonetheless, all components had decent chart success, especially Oceania which peaked at #4 on the Billboard 200.

Song of the day

"One and All" is the second single from The Smashing Pumpkins' tenth album Monuments to an Elegy. In an interview with the Huffington Post, Billy Corgan said "I basically sang the whole song the first time I wrote it... It had written itself." The song was favorably received by critics, with Music Times drawing comparisons to Mellon Collie, and Spin saying it "boast[s] a shoegaze-set-on-overdrive sheen". It peaked at #34 on the US Mainstream Rock chart in 2015, and at #47 on the US Rock Airplay chart.
