The '''September-October 2014 Pumpkinland II''' sessions were for the eventually-abandoned ''[[Day For Night]]'' album. Meant as the dark and proggy sister to the light and poppy [[Monuments to an Elegy|''Monuments to an Elegy'']], [[Billy Corgan]] and [[Jeff Schroeder]] began the sessions by recording tentative B-sides for the ''Monuments'' singles (such as "Queen of the Meadow" and "[[Roustabout]]"). Using this as a warm up, the band moved on to the eight songs from the ''Monuments'' B-list as the core to ''Day For Night'', then focusing on additional songs. After nearly three months of work, Corgan scrapped ''Day For Night'' entirely, deeming the material not up to standard, save a few songs. While "[[Burnt Orange Black]]" and "[[Cardinal Rule]]" were both performed live in 2015 and 2016 respectively, "[[The Spaniards]]" was re-recorded for ''[[Ogilala]]'' in 2016 ~~and~~ "[[Solara]]" was re-recorded for [[Shiny and Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.|''Shiny and Oh So Bright'']] in 2018.
