From SPCodex, The Smashing Pumpkins wiki
The December 2010-February 2011 Pumpkinland II sessions was the third set of recording sessions for the Teargarden by Kaleidyscope project. The band's line-up now included Billy Corgan, Jeff Schroeder on guitar, Nicole Fiorentino on bass and Mike Byrne on drums.

The last two songs on Teargarden, Lightning Strikes and Owata, were the first times the four of us recorded together. Oddly enough, it took what seemed to be a crazy-long time to do two songs. When you're working piecemeal, you can lose focus on the big picture. So doing Oceania was more in line from what I grew up with. I'm an album guy.

I have been in the recording studio for almost every SP record and never have I seen such positive band chemistry. It is very refreshing.
