Welcome to SPCodex
The Smashing Pumpkins wiki
Help us build the world's largest knowledge base for The Smashing Pumpkins and related acts!
We currently have 4,336 articles, detailing 1,323 songs across 150 albums, 85 studio sessions and 2,180 live shows.
Album of the week
American Gothic is the fourth EP by The Smashing Pumpkins. It was released in January 2008, with Billy Corgan describing it as a continuation of their 2007 album Zeitgeist. Corgan told the LA Times that the band had "finally turned the corner... where it's starting to feel like our music again, and not theirs, whoever 'they' might be," referring to the band's choice to continue making music without a record label. The EP contains four unreleased acoustic tracks recorded in the late 2007. Consequence of Sound wrote "If anything, Gothic is a step forward from Zeitgeist", while AllMusic said the EP "proves that the well-received Zeitgeist wasn't just a Corgan-fueled fluke".
Song of the day
"Landslide" is an acoustic arrangement of the Stevie Nicks song that The Smashing Pumpkins covered on the Pisces Iscariot compilation. It went on to become one of the band's most-beloved tracks and even had the approval of Nicks herself. "There's nothing more pleasing to a songwriter than [someone else] doing one of their songs. ['Landslide'] also led me to being friends with Billy [Corgan] and the possibility that we'll work together," she said of Corgan, though a collaboration never materialized. The song was a hit, peaking at #3 on the US Modern Rock Tracks and at #30 on the US Airplay charts.
Did you know...
- ...that Corgan originally intended for "Jellybelly" to be the first single from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness?
- ...that the girls on the cover of the "Today" single are D'arcy Wretzky's sister and a family friend?
- ...that Sharon Osbourne briefly managed The Smashing Pumpkins in late 1999?
- ...that the arrangements for TheFutureEmbrace followed an unusual process of splitting melodies into four parts based on their pitch, and the production team would program synths in each voicing and combine them into a multitrack recording?
- ...that former touring Smashing Pumpkins guitarist Mark Stoermer was an additional executive producer on the live action music video for "Wyttch"?
